Free streaming tv and movies - Hulu
Some examples of what’s available (some of my favorites): Movies: The Big Lebowski The Jerk Dirty Work The Usual Suspects TV: 30 Rock The Office (US) Heroes Friday Night Lights Arrested Development 24 Some oldies but goodies: Fantasy Island (yes, really) The A-Team Miami Vice Oh, and did I mention the HD collection ? … There are numerous features to make it likable, including being able to jump to chapters/segments as well as full screen as well as a lightbox-type feature that dims the remainder of the screen to make the video more visible. One can also subscribe to specific tv shows or channels, and there’s a queue feature so you can remember what you haven’t watched yet.

A few interesting items you might find useful - best I can do for an update today - busy week at work and I had an cervical epidural today (not nearly as fun as you would think, oddly).
… ScreensPro screensavers - Some very nice screensavers for both Mac and PC.

Is Apple being disingenuous with it’s 42% off iPhone deals?
On the Apple Store website, Apple is listing refurbished 8gb iPods at a cost of $349, which is about $50 less than retail. However, not the bottom of the ad, which indicates that the savings are actually a whopping 42% off - this of course being calculated from the original list price of $599, which it actually dropped and subsequently offered refunds to customers who paid that high price at launch. … Is Apple playing fast and loose with the facts, or is this fair game?
Copy and paste on your iPhone
iCopy only works within Safari, as you can see from the developer’s description above, but let’s face it - seeing any sort of copy&paste on the iPhone right now makes you stop in your tracks. … You can copy a URL, or a block of text, onto another web page, or into a new email. iCopy uses a bookmarklet, just like iTransmogrify, which lets you view a lot of Flash content on the iPhone. You save a bookmark for iCopy, then edit it per some simple instructions on the iCopy web-site, and whenever you want to copy something, you call up the bookmark and make easy one tap choices to copy or paste, copy a block of text or a URL, and so on.
If iPhone supports Exchange, how long before Mail does?
Now that Apple has officially added Exchange/ActiveSync support to the iPhone, how long will it be before it becomes part of Apples Mail client? Imagine synching iCal, Mail and Address Book with your company Exchange server and finally giving Entourage the kiss off. I can hardly contain myself at the thought of losing that 900 lb. gorilla.
The Nuvi iPhone killer
