Well I gotta say that I an pretty impressed so far as Day 3 of my iPhone life wraps up.

Last night, on my second night using the phone, I was able to take part in a phone meeting, review an email for details on last meeting’s minutes, scan thru a PDF doc, and take meeting notes in notepad and them email them out. All at once! I felt fairly empowered by that I gotta say.

I guess I should mention that I am writing this entry on my phone, via the Wordpress iPhone App. hmmm let’s see if I can take a photo to submit…

Of course being a techy there are things I notice that are kinda surprising:
1) no flash video in safari (firefox? you comin with a browser?)
2) no skype (yet) (and yes I partially blame Apple on this one)
3) still-only camera, and just 2mpx at that
4) no keychain support
5) no on/off for auto-suggest which is really messin with my slang!
6) WORST:: no horizontal keyboard for email, notepad, or calendar.. this is a major party foul.

Anyway, I am gonna enjoy the phone and remember that it is just that: a phone. (from the future. ha!)

Since the dawn of time, man has felt the need to compete. The Olympic games, currently taking place in Beijing, is a clear indicator of man’s desire to be the best. Today I bring you a new competition; one in which the winner will not receive anything as frivolous as a gold medal - but instead the ultimate bragging rights for being the best.

I bring you the battle of the iPhones: Black vs White.

Now you may be thinking that this post is a waste of time since they technically have the exact same options (provided they are both 16gb versions). 3G, GPS, Installable Apps from the store, beautiful and sleek features just to name a few. I assure you though, not all iPhones are created equal.

In the interest of fairness, us at 604media, choosing not to discriminate have opted for an equal number of white phones to black phones. (It actually just worked out that way and was not planned, though all the design guys got white phones and all the technical guys got black phones… hmmm).

sounds about right. !!

so this is a pretty basic tip, but when I figured this one out I was pretty stoked. It makes life pretty easy, especially when you are on the internet as much as me.

This week, we decided to get out of the city and let our creative vibes flow on the island. Monday was incredible weather, Tuesday.. not so great, but as I write, it is getting clear again and we anticipate another couple beautiful days comin up. Thanks to the wonderful world of VOIP phones, you can reach us usual on our office line, although we made a company rule that we don’t answer while in the hot tub! ha!

…and on the 8th Day, Apple created the iPhone, and they saw that it was good.

Now more than a few days after the first introduction of the iPhone, Apple is getting set to release their follow up in the form of the iPhone 3G. The world wide release date for this little marvel of technology has been set in stone as July 11th (Im sure I will be camping out July 10th… or 9th… possibly even 8th).

In the spirit of last weeks Canadian Environment Week, here are a few tips for a green workplace.

saw Tim’s post, thought I would throw down and let you in to my iTunes world..

604media is very happy to announce our newest client, performance coaching & consulting company Vibe Strategies. The 604 team is excited to create the corporate brand and web presence for Vibe.. stay tuned for updates.

The whole team here at 604 is thrilled to announce our new site is FINALLY up. I say finally cuz our site has been down for 6 months… which is embarrassing to admit as a web company, but the truth is, we have been so busy, we simply didn’t have time.
