Prediction: Apple will begin giving away bumper cases with iPhone 4′s and issue $30 credit for early buyers in the next 2 weeks

When I first heard Gizmodo‘s report that iPhone 4 cell reception was adversely affected by touching the stainless steel band that surrounds the iPhone 4 and serves as the antennae for the device, I was a bit skeptical. The fanboy in me wanted to think that since Gizmodo clearly has a bit of an ax to grind with Apple, they may be exaggerating the claims, or perhaps it was a problem affecting only a select number of handsets.

Tonight’s Episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live shot entirely on Jimmy’s MacBook Pro’s Webcam

Finally! A reason to watch Jimmy Kimmel Live! (Just kidding, I love Jimmy). According to ABC, with a full studio audience and a bunch of booked guests (Seth Rogen (Green Hornet) and Musical guest Dierks Bentley), a power outage struck the set of Jimmy Kimmel Live, leaving the crew scrambling for way to still produce the show. A quick thinking Kimmy grabbed his MacBook Pro and began filming with his webcam. I have no idea how bad the show will look, or why a power outage apparently... Read More

Imaginary GameBone Gamepad adds support for iPhone 4

22Moo, the Australian company that has threatened to one day release their GameBone Gamepad for the iPhone (for the past 700 days or so) has just announced that they have added iPhone 4 support to their mythological device. Instead of actually showing an iPhone 4 working in a functioning GameBone, 22moo has decided it would be better if they released yet another 3D rendering of what the GameBone might look like. Enjoy. I don’t know, if I were 22moo I would have saved myself... Read More
