iPod touch usage

Using my iPod touch (2nd gen) as my new home phone thanks to the Fritz!App Fon App. I also using my iPod less for listening to music but more for audio podcasts (e.g. CCC) and iTunes U. Great free content available under iTunes U. Negative is the short battery life, especially when using wifi and the limited storage of 16GB. Beside of that, the touch provides value for money.

  • A embedded 3G Modem would be a huge plus for the MacBook Air
  • Using prefetching for the blog  (currently only supported in Firefox and Chrome)
  • Ideas for disruptive innovations: <100$ iPhone, Abandon DRM, Symetrical Access Bandwidth…

Woah!

I just had a chance to look at a couple of pictures on my Dell 1080 monitor. Pics are looking even better than on the MBA13. The colours, the details…just awesome.

Back in town

Damn #Lufthansa. On the way to NY we got a nice upgrade plus the experience of the A380. Now on the way back from LAX to FRA a 747-400 oldtimer (>20 years old), no in-seat entertainment and a seat pitch that you would not even find on a domestic flight in Japan. Ten hours intercont flight and no entertainment 🙁

I hope the jetlag will not kill me in the next couple of days. Here something for the vocal trance fans.
