FaceTime as Predicted in 1910

A relic from the prophetic Hildebrandt chocolates collection of foreboding predictions for the future, this artist clearly had no idea what he was talking about. For one, those video conversations are clearly taking place over a 3G connection. Secondly… flying cars? Come on, that’s crazy talk. All I can say is that this woman must have said something mighty rude ...

Innocent iPad Executed by a Shotgun in the Name of Monetary Gain

At least it didn’t feel any pain. FreeTaxUSA used the death of an innocent iPad to advertise their services. While death has been used for self-promotion before (hell, look at most political ads), never have I seen such a blatant use of gore and bloodshed used so lightly. FreeTax shot an unsuspecting iPad with a shotgun slug for their own ...

Survey Shows That iPhone Owners Get Laid More

As an iPhone owner myself, I can say that this is unequivocally untrue. If I were running OKCupid, I’d go back and check if iPhone users are also much more likely to pay for sex then other smartphone users. But regardless of my involuntary abstinance, OKCupid says it is so. They also say that the camera you use for your ...

For many subscribers who pay almost exclusively for Howard, this has been quite the annoyance. The free iPhone app Music Dock delivers all of the Sirius XM content, including Howard, Opie & Anthony and Oprah, to your iPhone. All you need is your Sirius ...

All Four iPhone Generations Compared in Video

While there have been plenty of performance comparisons between the iPhone 3GS and the iPhone 4 and even the iPhone 4 and other big name smartphones, I haven’t seen any thorough examination of the differences between all four of the models in their entirety. This video shows just how drastic the performance differences are between the first device and the ...

iPod Shuffle Neckband

The iPod Shuffle is one tiny ass device. It’s actually pretty hard to keep track of if you’re multi-tasking, which many music-listeners happen to be doing. If you’re one of the unfortunate schmucks who own the Shuffle, iPod Shuffle Neckband keeps your device close, regardless of how much close you might or might not be wearing. Look, sometimes a guy ...

iPhone 4 “End Call” Antenna Decal

The ironic thing about this End Call decal is that once the decal is put over the antenna, touching that area will no longer interfere with your signal. I love the idea, I really do. And oddly enough, if Apple decided to officially license this decal, it would probably make a lot of money. Especially at $29 a pop. But, ...
