iPhone 3G Live App Store Tour

Posted on July 11th, 2008 in Apple, Events, Podcast, Review, Technology, Video | No Comments »

I did a live Tour on Kyte.tv of the App Store as soon as I got the phone activated(a little painful). It was a fun experience, it was pretty engaged as few of my friends were excited to be part of the unboxing/tour. This means I am definately doing more live Kyte.tv podcasts and videos.

iPhone 3G Live Un-Boxing on Kyte.tv

Posted on July 11th, 2008 in Apple, Events, Gadgets, Review, Technology | No Comments »

I did my first gadget video on Kyte.tv. iPhone 3G came out today (July 11th) and as an iPhone fan I bought my self a black 8GB iPhone 3G. So far I love it, hardware wise it feels lighter and more comfortable in your hands. Sound quality during call and speaker phone is much improved from my limited experience. The App store is just amazing. I also have part two coming up of the iPhone App Store walkthrough.

Today was the second day of the three day event. On Friday we had a small session between 6 - 9 PM, today was the 12 hour productive day going from 9 AM - 9 PM, and tomorrow will be the final chapter going from 9 AM - 6 PM.
