iApp Review – Procamera
I got an email a few weeks ago, asking me to take a look at ProCamera. Sure why not, I’d love something that was better than the built in app, and GorillaCam came just shy of the mark for me. ProCamera (iTunes Link) might be it.
Procamera has an impressive list of features.
Steady Cam
timer
autosave
full rez zoom

iApp Review – GorillaPod gorillacam
I love my GorillaPod. So much so I bought Nicole an additional one. I used it during RIAdventure 2009 to hold my Flip cam while recording sessions, and we’ve used it at the end of a trekking pole when hiking.
When i saw that GorillaPod had an iphone app, and a camera app no less I was intrigued.
Follow up to Netflix on my PS3
I wanted to post a quick followup to my previous post about streaming Netflix on my PS3 via a disc they send out.
It’s as shitty as I said.
My free disc arrived and I figured, you know what, I’ll try it out, maybe I’m wrong, it happens from time to time. I wasn’t.
The interface is craptastic. You load the disc like any other, it spends some time connecting, then it brings up a nice little screen with an alpha numeric code, that I have to plug into my Netflix account. Too bad my laptop was upstairs doing something so I had to commit it to memory. Lame. I know it would have been extra work on Netflix’s part, but it would have been an awesome gesture if they could have pre-registered the disc they sent to my account “Welcome John, here’s your instant Queue”
The browsing is about as simple as it could be, a linear horizontal display of movies. You have to just scroll left and right through the list. That’s it.
No bells, no whistles.
One more tool in my Travel toolkit – Network Location
One of the things I hate about travel (And I really do love traveling) is my laptop doing things I don’t want it to do, because it doesn’t know we’re traveling.
Thankfully, what I assumed was just a natural state of affairs, I had no control over, turns out to be a completely manageable process, thanks to Network Location. I would have never known this app existed, if not for twitter. Someone (I don’t recall who) pointed out the One Finger Discount site, and after looking over the offerings, I was clicking purchase.
It was especially good timing. I was leaving for a trip to San Jose, so I’d get to test the app out. Set up is really straight forward. You define your locations (Home, Office, Travel, Starbucks, etc)
The things that get me, are printers, Time Machine, etc. When I’m traveling for work, I almost always have my portable HP printer, so I’d like to not have to remember to change printers.
johnwilker.com – My Thoughts on V
Be warned if you haven’t watched it yet, stop reading.
I loved V as a kid, it was a great show, good message. Sure it was campy and Jane Badler was a psycho bitch of a bad guy, but it was a great show and set of Miniseries/TV Movies.
I watched the new V the other night and while I think it’s got promise, and I admit, it’s a “re-imagining” it’s got some work to do to measure up to the original.
Sure networks today, are run by retards, who give a show 1 episode to hit #1 and if it doesn’t they cancel so they can air more Dancing|singing|boxing|dieting with the stars, so I hope V get’s a chance to work out the kinks.
iApp Review Simon the Sorcerer 2
The makers of Simon the Sorcerer 2 asked me to give the game a shot. I did.
I’m not a big Role player, so probly not the best person for this game. I did enjoy it a bit, but as a ‘casual gamer’ it wouldn’t be for me.
The game play is fun, but a bit confusing, there’s cross hairs, icons, double tapping, etc.
Sprint Mifi Review
It’s common, if anecdotal knowledge in downtown Denver that during Rockies home games, the AT&T network pretty much collapses (sad, but true). You’ll have full bars, and can’t complete a call or open an email. I’ve taken to carrying the Mifi in my pocket or backback (as the case may be) and having it on the whole time and letting that serve up data for my iPhone. Voice is a little trickier, but Skype solves that issue, if I REALLY need to make a call right then. Sad, but hey, it’s a nice back up plan, since AT&T can’t be relied on.
iPhone App review – iFitness
it’s been a while since I talked about an app I really like on my iPhone, so why not.
Since I’m on a bit of an increased fitness kick since I have to fit into my slacks for a wedding, I’m gonna talk about iFitness.
I use two apps to track my fitness, I wish it was only 1, but alas, so far neither of the two does it all.
iFitness rocks for it’s work outs. It has a ton of
activities stored,with pictures and even some video demos. It’s also got some prebuilt work outs, and the ability to create your o
iapp review – Arcade Bowl from Skyworks
This is a first for me, I gotta admit. Some one actually wanted me to review their iPhone app! How cool is that!!
SkyWorks Arcade Bowl (iTunes Link), is pretty fun, I must admit!!!
I really wish the iTunes store allowed trial ware. I might not have bought this cool game without knowing it was cool up [...]
iPhone App Review HP iPrint
I stumbled across HP iPrint (iTunes Link), and thought it was pretty cool. I don’t have much need to print pics from my iPhone, but it’s nice to have the option.
