iPhone Calendar – February 2010

|sumsion| posted a photo: Only 328 shopping days until Christmas! It’s February, and time again for my monthly tradition. This is the lock screen / background image on my iPhone. I create a new one each month so that I can see a calendar very quickly, without needing to unlock, open the calendar app, etc. I always choose a new image (of my own) and then overlay the current month. Since it’s helpful to me, I figured it may be helpful to others also. To make it your background: 1 – Download the original here 2 – Email the photo to your iphone 3 – Open email on iphone 4 – Save the image (hold on photo, release, save image) 5 – Open iphone Settings, click Wallpaper, select the image from your camera roll If you use it, let me know. Thanks. —- The original image used for this background, taken in Balmaha Scotland, can be viewed here .

Lens sample variation – A closer look

Today we have something a bit different for you over on SLRgear : Rather than testing and reviewing a single lens, we’ve partnered with LensRentals.com to test *5* different samples of the Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM. Sample variation is a significant issue for users, reviewers, and manufacturers. As a user, the issue is whether a positive review and glowing comments by other users mean that you’d have a similar good experience with a lens should you purchase a copy. On the flip side, do a few negative reports about a lens’ performance mean you should avoid it, or are they merely flukes, with the majority of samples… (read more)

Printer Review: HP Photosmart Premium All-in-One

It scans, it prints, it faxes, all with a gorgeous touchscreen interface. But that interface can run apps hosted on HP servers, too. What sets the HP Photosmart Premium apart from other all-in-one devices is its ability to run small print apps hosted on the Web that format information as diverse as movie tickets and product comparisons for two-sided printouts. Only a few companies (but more than the initial very few) have developed print apps for their sites. HP hasn’t yet released the software developer’s kit to any but a few… (read more)

Second Chances

|sumsion| posted a photo: I belive in them. —- I’m feeling a monochromatic week coming on again. I miss the blacks and whites. The problem is that I need to actually use my camera before I can have anything to post. Hmmm…. This, of course, is a re-do of yesterday’s upload . I almost posted this yesterday, but settled on the color instead.
