HTC EVO vs iPhone4

I know these types of “iPhone vs. movies” tend to over simplify the pros and cons of both devices to support whichever fanboy camp their makers happen to be in, but since I’m firmly in the Apple camp, I like to think this makes some pretty sweet points. (Warning, these virtual Muppets are dropping F-Bombs like they’re going out of style). Thanks to faithful Macenstein reader Jonro for the tip! [via laughing squid]  Read More

First music video shot entirely on an iPhone 4 tricks us into posting about it

Faithful Macenstein reader (and lead singer of the band The Anix) Brandon Smith writes: We filmed this entire video using only one iphone 4, literally minutes after taking it out of the box.
