New iPhone 3G S...& that OS 3.0 mmm ya

Ok, so it is sorta new, the new iPhone 3G S but I'd say it's more of an upgrade than anything else, the bigger news is the new software (version 3.0)... hardware wise the 'new' iPhone has a new 600MHz processor, up from the 433 MHz one in the 3G version (the 2nd Gen iPod Touch has a 533MHz processor).

Pity that the battery life of the 3G S hasn't improved though. The camera has been upgraded (something the iPod hasn't got) to 3 megapixel.

But the big news (for the iPod) is the software update, which will activate the bluetooth embedded in the iPod Touch so bluetooth headsets will be an option when listening to music watching movies etc. for the iPhone and iPod Touch alike the software version 3.0 will improve and add much more functionality (cut, copy, paste which has been sorely missed, and a novel search function called spotlight) to both and apparently open up a whole new frontier for games and applications alike...

Now if Apple would just open an iTunes store for SA, we have an application store (app's and a few pathetic games) but we definitely don't have all the high end app's and especially games that are available elsewhere!!?? come on Apple, we've been patient enough...

Beauty is perception...

When I see photos like this I wonder why it is that we crave so diligently things that contradict the beauty so evident! Is it only the lucky few who seek out and live this life where beauty is so innate to one's living who appreciate the levity of their life? We others desire so much 'stuff' that all else is compromised most notably our state of senses, our sense of being, our world so one dimensional that we lose our souls to it's linearity... And in doing so we lose ourselves and the opportunity to appreciate and experience true beauty in the world!

Another Day!

Easy to say we must strive to do the right thing but when the right thing requires such a radical shift in both action and approach, then the line between doing what right and what one is comfortable  with becomes quite blurry…
