iPhone wireless charging?

Powermat Wireless Charging System

Not really sure how this mat works but to charge all your doodads by just laying them on it at night would certainly be interesting.

Indictments in boys Uzi death

Three men, including a small-town police chief, were indicted Thursday on involuntary manslaughter counts in the gun-fair death of an 8-year-old who accidentally shot himself in the head with an Uzi that a prosecutor said he never should have been allowed to handle.

The club where the fair was held also was charged. The fair had promised shooters would have certified instructors in an advertisement, but District Attorney William Bennett said the child, Christopher Bizilj, was supervised by an uncertified 15-year-old boy.

Christopher, of Ashford, Conn., lost control of the 9mm micro submachine gun as it recoiled while he was firing at a pumpkin Oct. 26 at the Machine Gun Shoot and Firearms Expo at the Westfield Sportsman's Club in western Massachusetts.

Pelham Police Chief Edward Fleury was charged because he owns the sponsor of the gun fair, COP Firearms & Training. Two men who brought the automatic weapon to the show, Carl Guiffre of Hartford, Conn., and Domenico Spano, of New Milford, Conn., also were indicted.

Fleury and the club also were indicted on four counts each of furnishing a machine gun to a minor. A conviction on each count is punishable by up to 10 years in prison, up to $10,000 in fines and the loss of a firearms license for at least 10 years.

Bennett said prosecutors know of at least four children, including Christopher, who fired automatic weapons at the fair. He added that Fleury had wrongly assured Guiffre and Spano that it was legal for children to use the Uzi under Massachusetts law.

The father was not charged because he was a layman and based his decision on information from others who should have known it was too dangerous, Bennett said. The 15-year-old boy who was supervising Christopher with the Uzi also will not be charged, he added.

So blame everyone but the parent?

Why no blogger application for iPhone?

Looks like I can only upload pics from the camera roll not from my files on the iPhone?

iPhone 2.2

Thanks for nothing. No copy and paste and Safari crashes just as often as it always did. Until you can fix such basic things why keep wasting my time with more bells and whistles?

iPhone OS 2.2 coming next week ?

Rumor: iPhone OS 2.2 coming next week

The next update to the iPhone might be here in time for Turkey Day.

At least, that's what a Greek site called iPhone Hellas is claiming (via Gizmodo).

Google translations can be tricky things, but the site reports that "The iPhone OS v2.2 will be given in circulation on 21 November '08." That could just mean that developers will be getting an advance copy to test against their applications that day, but it could also mean that Apple plans to release the update as of that date.

The forthcoming update is reportedly going to bring iPhone users the Google Street View feature as well as over-the-air podcast downloads, among other things. An earlier report had pegged the release of that software for October, but that clearly hasn't happened.

Yet still no copy and paste. /sigh

iPhone 3G

I got one the day it came in 16gb version and have to say I am mostly happy with it. I am still puzzled why no one can seem to write a simple program to allow copy and paste with it. It will certainly limit my blogging with it since it makes it much more difficult to add links to the post.

I am enjoying the Star Wars Unleashed game on it though. :D
