Quirky Tilt for iPhone 4, white iPhone 4 in London, iPhone DSLR prototype

iPhone, iPhone Accessories, news July 16th, 2010

Quirky makes all manner of wild products that are designed by the community. The company has a cool new iPhone 4 bumper case called the Tilt that has a flip down section to prop the smartphone up. The iPhone 4 will eventually be offered in white and black colors, though it launched in black only. If you are holding out for the white iPhone 4 apparently, the handset may be in London now. Lots of white iPhone boxes in crates were spied by a geek last night. I have no idea why you would want to cram your iPhone in a DSLR case. If you need a high-end camera, just carry a high-end camera. If the thought intrigues you, the iPhone DSLR prototype has surface and has to be one of the ugliest accessories ever.

Steve Wozniak On iPhone 4′s Reception: ‘If You Can Afford It, Carry A Second Verizon Phone For Backup’

iphone 4, news July 16th, 2010

Steve Wozniak On iPhone 4′s Reception: ‘If You Can Afford It, Carry A Second Verizon Phone For Backup’ Post from: FSMdotCOM Henk Van Ess, investigative journalist and accidental entrepreneur, interviewed The Woz about his experience with the new iPhone 4. Woz acknowledges the reception problems with the new iPhone 4. His advice: “If you can afford it, carry a second Verizon phone for backup”. Another option is to “carry a MiFi and rely on Skype on your iPhone” Henk van Ess: How did you find out about the antenna problems? Steve Wozniak: The first time I tried I was able to duplicate the problem. My wife was driving me to the airport and as soon as I got a short distance from my home, and no longer on wifi, I tried it by accessing a web page (using Safari on my iPhone 4) and observing the progress bar. As the bar started to proceed I lightly (‘lightly’) touched a couple of fingers to the trouble area and the progress bar froze. When I lifted my fingers the progress bar continued it’s (sic) rapid progress. Putting my finger[s] back down halted the progress bar again. Lifting my fingers another time allowed the web page to finish loading. I tried it again with one more web page I was in a moving car in the hills near my home. Currently I maintain cell phone calls fine there with my iPhones and with other cell phones, although this exact area used to drop AT&T calls reliably, a few years ago. I was in a moving car in the hills near my home. Currently I maintain cell phone calls fine there with my iPhones and with other cell phones, although this exact area used to drop AT&T calls reliably, a few years ago. I tried to repeat this experiment somewhere else a second time, I think in a San Jose restaurant, and I only had partial success. That time I could only slow the progress bar a little and only if I squeezed my iPhone 4 tightly. I concluded that the effect only occurs in some places. It’s like the AT&T dead zone has been extended with this new phone. If you can afford it, carry a second Verizon phone for backup. Another option is to carry a Verizon mifi and rely on Skype on your iPhone. Read the full interview here … [ via TC]
