iPhone now can be educational. iPlot is a software which can plot function graph. I am not good at math, so do not really know how to try it. But, this software may be useful to some of you. Add many function as you want, choose the color, and then save. Click Plot to draw the graph. You will be able to zoom in. Hope it will be useful for you. It can be found from Installer if you have installed Community Sources.
When you search for “American Idol” on YouTube, how can you know which is the latest? Ok. There is a sort option, but it won’t be cool as this TimeTube. Type in the query in the search field, wait for a second, and the result will be listed with timeline. Navigate (scroll left and right) and find the one you want, you will be able to watch it immediately. Zoom in and out can adjust the scale of timeline (You can choose up to 100 years. Wow, have YouTube launched for 100 years?)
There are also list view, flipbook and map view, all are really cool, too. I tried it with foreign languages, and TimeTube can still list the result correctly.
Some of you may already noticed, winandmac.com has changed. This new logo better represent winandmac.com will have the latest news, tips and useful tutorials for both Windows and Mac OS X. When we look at the huge “W” upside down, it is “M”. It means the site is for win and mac users.
There’s one more thing, winandmac.com iPhone/iPod Touch has also refreshed. I added a navigation bar and highlighted story links. That means you can browse all the contents available on iPhone/iPod Touch easily. The logo has also updated to match the style.
To try it, type “winandmac.com” in iPhone/iPod Touch’s safari, and you will be able to enjoy the great content. Make sure you also add it to the home screen, I have designed a new logo specially for you.
Although the site currently run by only one person (yes. believe me), I always try my best to bring you the interest tech news around the world.
Thank you for all the reader’s support. Please continue clicking on winandmac.com.
For those who don’t know, previous iPhone 2.0 beta 4 firmware is not pwned. That means unless you are using AT&T or other official carrier with valid developer account, you cannot upgrade iPhone beta 4 firmware with working functions. You will end up with “Activate iPhone” screen.
If you have updated to iPhone beta 4, you will end up to have the “04.05.03_G” modem firmware. It is not easy to downgrade it to 04.04.05_G (Currently we are using at iPhone 1.1.4 official firmware). Since I didn’t obtain iPhone firmware beta 5, I am not sure whether the modem firmware is also “04.05.03_G”.
No matter what it is, if you accidentally upgrade the iPhone to 2.0 beta 4 or 5, you may want to try this. This is the tool to unlock the firmware and enable the phone function again.
After downgrading from the firmware 2.0 beta, the modem will still be 04.05.03_G, launch the Installer, and add “http://s.iphone-forums.de/” as the source. Select the correct tool to unlock the firmware. Try it if you dare.

Even you didn’t heard The Bird and The Bee’s “Again & Again”, this video is still worth watching. Dennis Liu made a music video for the song using Mac desktop. There is a lot of cool movements on the desktop with pretty girl singing the song. You have to watch the whole video. Definitely.

iPhone Video Recorder has updated to 1.2. The new version refreshed the GUI a little bit, and the most notable new feature is “sharing”. After recording the video, you can share it with email or upload it to YouTube.
The new version seems running smoothly than the previous version. I sometimes found there is sound recording version with this version. But, I am not sure whether it is my problem.
To install it, take a look of the instructions available here.
It’s very logical to think that iPhone will have 3G version in the near future. Now, there is more proof for this. MacRumors and Chronic Dev found that there is a option to enable 3G in the iPhone latest beta firmware 5. Both site said it is 100% confirmed and it should be legit. One question, will it support the highest standard of 3G? (i.e. HSDPA with 14.4Mbps+ download, HSUPA with 2Mbps+ upload)

Thinking to buy a MacBook Air on travel because it is thin? Think again. MacBook may be a better choice. It is also thin enough for us to carry around. MacBook Air is also too expensive which specification is no better than MacBook. If I had to pay that huge amount of money, I will get a new MacBook or MacBook Pro, rather than MacBook Air.
AP has designed a new website specially for iPhone. Type “http://www.apnews.com” in iPhone’s Safari, it will be redirected to the mobile site. The interface is fit for iPhone, and the button are iPhone-styled. You can read all the latest news and all the category on AP. Search function also works well. Definitely better than watching the normal version of AP. You know, zoom in and zoom out is hard sometimes.
