Test post from iPhone

The WordPress client for the iPhone is pretty cool. It will let you insert pictures or take one with the camera. Not bad for a 1.0 product.

What a sad life

I checked three stores in Georgia and felt like a loser.

As of 6:00 a.m. EDT Tuesday, all three models (8GB black, 16 GB black or white) of the hot-selling device were sold out in 21 states, according to Jim Neal, a retired PR man living near Kansas City who took the time to check each of Apple’s 188 U.S. retail stores using the company’s iPhone availability widget.

Got the Apple Remote app to work

I spent a little time getting the new Apple WiFi remote app working from my iPod touch. I can now wander around the house and control my Mac and AppleTV via the iPod.

My favorite feature: changing the AirTunes speaker from computer to AppleTV and vice-versa. Basically, I was listening to some stuff across the room from my computer. I switched speakers, walked downstairs, and didn’t miss a beat. Ready to go back upstairs? No problem, just switch it back. That’s just flippin’ sweet.

My BlackBerry and camera got soaked in a downpour on the beach today. Additionally, the Blue Angels show got cancelled. At least we didn’t get hit by lightning like some other unfortunate people.

And when I say “really bad”, I mean “really bad”. I just had a dilemma. Do I put this under funny or entertainment? It really isn’t either.
