Second Generation iPhone

It always happens-Apple releases a product, and then they release a new upgraded version of it about 6 months to a year after the original product’s release. Look at how frequently the iPod has been upgraded. Its only been a few short years since the original iPod was released: when it came out, it could hold 1000 songs, no video, and had one giant scroll wheel. Today, the iPod touch uses revolutionary touchscreen technology, can hold thousands of songs and many movies and TV shows, and can connect to the Internet. With the iPhone, Apple was trying something new that no one had ever really tried before, and it was a hit. Now, they seek to upgrade their success.

Here’s what I found on Endgadget.com pertaining to the second generation iPhone:

• The first thing people will notice: the 2nd gen iPhone will be about the same size and shape as the first gen.
• It will, of course, have 3G. And proper GPS!
• The most noticeable physical difference is back of the phone is no longer metal — the whole thing is glossy black, from top to bottom. The volume buttons are now chrome.
• Because it’s got a little less metal to deal with, it doesn’t have quite as many angular edges. The battery is (still) not removable.
• The phone itself will be slightly thicker than the first gen device.
• The headphone jack will no longer be recessed, and will finally be flush with the body.
• The device itself uses roughly the same size and resolution screen as the first generation product.

• No solid word on battery life or storage capacity.

Not much is known about the second generation iPhone at the present, but Engadget said it could be introduced as early as July. This could be big for Apple: its riding on the success of its previous models, and this one can be very important.

Transformers the Movie - All Spark 4 Socket USB Hub

That USB missile launcher you had to have is one thing, but a giant 4 port USB hub in the likeness of the All Spark cube the Transformers movie? Did we mention it talks, spouting off classics like “We must protect the All Spark Cube,” every time you plug in a device? This surely-authorized product will run you about $35 US, although the toll on your dignity may not be calculable.

The All Spark was very prominent in the Transformers movie, with it’s ability to make objects into Transformers. Now it can transform your computer connections. Access 4 devices through it and it speaks All Spark phrases as they engage - “We must protect the All Spark Cube” etc, works straight from your computer no mains cable needed.

Pretty cool if you ask me, if I we’re to buy one it certainly wouldn’t be be for the USB hub built into it lol. I’d be frightened incase it turned my pc into a transformer *haha*
