This is the sort of application I’ve been waiting for since day one. As a former Windows Mobile user, I have missed the ‘Today’ screen a great deal – IntelliScreen looks like it is going to not only fill the missing gap but will add functionality by adding headlines, weather, etc. to the iPhone lock screen.
View Calendar, Email, Text Messages, News, Sports, and Weather from your iPhone “Slide To Unlock” screen
Smooth scrolling across each item to quickly glimpse at your data
Auto-Checks Email when you view the unlock screen – no need to “Refresh” from Mail.app or …
UPDATE:
This time around, 16gb iPhones are available for only $349. Not too shabby!

Press Release
Rainer Brockerhoff has announced an update to Quay, a system utility for Mac OS X 10.5 “Leopard”. Quay extends the Dock’s functionality, allowing the user to sort Stack menus in several useful ways, and see extra information for each item.
Quay works transparently with the Dock and uses very few system resources. It follows aliases and symbolic links, and shows popup menus for Smart Folders. The user can restrict it to work only with certain Stacks, or fall back to the standard Dock menu/grid by holding down the Option key.
Some new features in version …
Secrets, the tweaking PrefPane, has been (finally!) updated to v1.0.0.
Secrets allows you to change dozens of hidden settings in OSX as well as supported applications. it’s quite handy.
Check out Secrets here.
Macgasm and Ars are reporting that RIM is posting internal job positions looking for Cocoa develoeprs.

it amazes me to no end how stupidly stubborn some IT people are. Macs in the enterprise are fully viable and the support require by staff is minimal. If you can get away from Exchange, you’re golden…but even if you can’t, Entourage is acceptable (not my favorite program by far, but it is passable).
These are a few of my favorITe things:
You don’t have to deal with spyware, malware or dll hell.
You can easily backup and restore machine to the users preferred state when necessary.
You can create an encrypted image that will work on every Mac to …
