I blogged about this earlier on my companies corporate blog site for Snap, but wanted to add some depth to this on my own blog.
As you may know I got an iPhone the day they were released and about an hour after I had it in hand, it was activated and I was using it as my regular phone… After about a week and a half of using it heavily every day, including on a camping trip over the July 4th holiday weekend… I have a few things that I want to see Apple improve upon…
As I use the iPhone I add user experience insight and thoughts to a Note I have with a running tally of bullets. Its great cause I can make an immediate note to myself in the app while its fresh in my mind. Here is my list in NO particular order…
My biggest gripe though is in the support of Exchange. In all the public discussion of this it was pretty clear there would be support. But, if you look at what they really have its kinda half assed. IMAP from an Exchange system is only half the picture. I need Calendaring and Contacts syncronization as well. Email is good, but not good enough. I really need to see better integration with Exchange! Adding a application settings tab with the word ‘exchange’ is kind of a fake out of you ask me, since its only IMAP email.
All things aside, the iPhone is a great piece of work and I applaud Apple for the accomplishment… Hopefully we’ll see a software update to the iPhone in the near future to add some of these enhancements in…
Yesterday Nokia announced three new phones as part of their Nseries Multimedia Phone product range. They all are 3G capable, can play MP3s, and all but one have high resolution cameras (2MP w/ Zeiss lenses)… The most notable is the N91 which has a 4GB HD built in. This is Nokias answer to the Apple/Motorola iTunes Phone that has been delayed again.
Nokia today introduced the Nokia N91 multimedia, the company’s latest device optimized for mobile music consumption. With room for up to 3000 songs on the integrated 4-gigabyte hard disk, the Nokia N91 delivers a premier music experience. In addition, the industry standard 3.5mm stereo headset jack and easy transfer of music files from your PC help make the Nokia N91 a connected mobile jukebox. Encased in stainless steel, the Nokia N91 has dedicated music keys on its face, which slide down to reveal the phone keypad. The Nokia N91 is a part of the new Nokia Nseries range, bringing you the latest multimedia technologies and smartphone functionalities.

I have been using Salling Clicker with my older t616 for quite awhile now, and now I can use it with my 802se! Its an awesome little app (artfully programmed by Jonas Salling), that makes using your bluetooth SonyEricsson phone even more of a pleasure. Not only can you screen calls on your computer display (it pops up a large typeface with your call details), but it acts as a remote control to iTunes (your phone can control volume, track selection, pause/play, randomization), and a whole slew of other desktop apps. All of this is made possible by AppleScript, and there are a variety of add-on scripts available from the Salling archives. If your using a smartphone or palm, you can even get the album cover art beamed to your device, if you have it already!
