Aspiring filmmakers who own iPhones (that’s all of you, right?), rejoice! No more hissy fits that you can’t make your award-winning film because you’re broke. For the price of a Chipotle’s burrito, you can buy the ReelDirector app, transforming your iPhone into a camera/editing beast machine. You can potentially create the next “Citizen Kane,” except your version would be ultra low-res, have awful sound, laughably bad friend “actors,” and embarrassing production values all around.
Marvel at the wonders of modern technology:
I’d totally buy this if I could afford an iPhone. Well, I gotta run guys. And if you take my advice feel free to send us your iPhone-created masterpieces.
Firefox junkies rejoice! Mozilla has released the first shots of their highly anticipated Mobile Firefox, and apparently there will be 2 versions, a touchscreen and non-touchscreen version. Joining the mobile browser wars will be another huge step for Firefox, which is currently the second most popular Web Browser to Internet Explorer. Opera has already beaten Firefox to the punch as the first outside Browser for cell phones, so they better be packing some heat with this release.
My hope is that it will be highly supported with add-ons and extensions, so that you could basically turn the browser into your phones OS, and basically run everything right from the Firefox Browser, that may be getting a little bit ahead of ourselves, but this could be a Google Android fighter if they do it right.

I just recently purchased the T-Mobile Dash to hold me over until the 2nd generation iPhone comes out, but how incredibly gorgeous does the BlackBerry Bold look? Bravo RIM. You guys did an amazing job. I might have to get my hands on this new toy. Everyone at work has been raving about this handset. Word on the street is that the BlackBerry Bold will be available sometime this summer on AT&T with a T-Mobile edition as well. The handset can handle 850/1900/2100Mhz for HSDPA/UMTS as well as T-Mobile’s 1700MHz band. For those of you who travel a lot, feel free to take this one overseas.

Still have another year on a T-Mobile contract, but you’ve always wanted an iPhone? For a small fraction of the cost of a cell phone, you can now unlock almost any cellular device using the Universal SIM Unlock Card. This SIM Unlock is a thin piece of FPC that sits between your SIM card and the cell phone’s SIM socket, allowing you to use the phone with “unauthorized” SIM cards and essentially making your phone an open-source device.
“No more Test-Point. No more opening phones.. No more waiting for logs.. No more Server delays & errors.. No more Cracks & illegal hackings.. No more damaged phones.. No more lost warranty because of phone modifications.”
A small incision (sound familiar – MDA?) is required for the card to work but for $22.99 it’s worth a shot.
