”The Mac has prospered because of quality. Both in terms of Apple themselves and 3rd-parties. The iPhone is at a dangerous point right now. It’s on the verge of becoming commoditized and so is the 3rd-party software on it. And the VCs are right there behind this and will probably drive it if the market lets them.

Testing LifeCast For iPhone
Strange UI but cool so far. Love to see more apps support Tumblr. I say strange for two small reasons:
1) The bright blue of LifeCast’s toolbars initially struck me as very un-iPhone-like, but then I realized it does a great job of distinguishing the app from others that take on Apple’s default dark blue toolbar color. I like it now.
2) LifeCast’s post drafting window feels a little disjointed, as there are no visual boundaries or barriers between the title and body areas. I wasn’t sure where to tap to begin editing either.
That said, I really like this app so far and its developers are very responsive at Get Satisfaction.

A very, very nice Tumblr client for the iPhone and iPod touch that packs in just about everything you could need (iTunes link). All possible post types are present (sans audio and video since the iPhone OS can record neither—for now), you can tag posts, adjust privacy, post to groups, and even view your Dashboard to catch up on the users you follow.
My $1.99 was incredibly well spent.

Hold The Shift Key While Typing | iPhone Alley
This is great for those times when you need to type something short in all-caps, but don’t want to activate the caps lock, or perhaps haven’t even enabled that feature (caps-lock is off by default in iPhone OS 2.0). I don’t know when this feature arrived, but it’s certainly helpful, and a great use of the iPhone’s multi-touch UI.

The ultimate nerd shout-out appears on an iPhone Digg app (iTunes link) that isn’t doing well so far.

Omni Group's step-by-step guide for setting up Bonjour syncing with OmniFocus for iPhone
Should be useful for people who don’t have MobileMe accounts or other type of compatible web hosting. You can’t sync over the web when you’re out and about, but this is about the easiest way to set up a Mac-to-iPhone sync over your local network.

Funky iPhone Safari text rendering error in Google Reader. I scrolled to the top of the page right in the middle of a download session of more headlines, and this is what happened. Strange that it happened to only one entry.

1FPS now plays better with iPhone
Tumblr sites such as the one you’re reading right now have an inherent ability to strip down for mobile phones. That’s fine for the general mobile web surfer, but now 1FPS has an iPhone-optimized version thanks to Intersquash.com. Granted, it isn’t perfect because it is hosted at the Intersquash service and for other reasons. But this was a very simple way to create a more pleasant version of 1FPS for visitors using iPhones, complete with a Home Screen icon in case I am lucky enough to enjoy a spot there. I have also added an iPhone link to the top left navigation area of the site for easy access.

Tweetie is hailed as one of the best Twitter iPhone clients, and I cautiously agree. It has a gorgeous, iChat-like UI and a healthy dose of features like viewing replies, trending topics, and search. But Tweetie wastes a lot of UI space and its affinity for shifting back and forth through screens really annoys me. Want to visit a link someone tweeted? You’ll have to tap the tweet to shift to a new screen, then tap the link (now that it’s accessible) to shift to yet another screen with a built-in browser.
Look at Twitterrific’s spectacular and condensed—but not cramped—UI. Now look at the reply and star controls that Twittelator embeds on every tweet, minimizing the need to bounce around between screens for functionality. All those saved taps really add up after a while, and so does all the space that Tweetie’s UI wastes.

Video: Power Slider Charging & Syncing : Incase News
Of all the iPhone 3G backup batteries, Incase’s Power Slider is the most interesting to me. It definitely adds some bulk, but so will any similar solution. The fact that this one fits incredibly well as a case, and is designed by a company known in part for great iPhone cases, makes this one my top pic.
