Mac Rumors

I honestly love hearing about new MacRumors thinking that it will come true someday. We finally got the landscape keyboard, cut&paste, and push notification. I still think that it's pretty sad that the most advanced phone ever does not have a video camera in it. Yeah sure the iPhone 3GS has it, but did it really take four different kinds of iPhones to establish a video camera when it should have been there the very first generation? One thing that I loved about this phone is the new Camera Genius Application that I just downloaded. It has Zoom (something that the iphone never had before the iphone 3GS), it has a big button shoot (click anywhere on the screen and it will take a picture, voice shot (where you could say anything and it will take the picture), anti-shake, a timer, and more ! I just can't think of anymore. haha And it's only 0.99! How lucky are iPhone users? Camera Genius also comes with a handy camera manual that is a great basic resource for the novice photographer. There are notes and tips on topics such as lighting, focal point, perspective and portraits as well as example photos in each.

Portable LCD

Remember back in the day with the big blocks of "portable Tv's" That never did seem to have a clear picture? This was in the 90s and I remember having one and I was so excited that I could watch my t.v. shows ALMOST everywhere. haha I actually remember watching family matters series on that thing. Now they have a portable LCD that seems to be a lot clearer than our 90s product! Cnet actually says that the LCD is "Affordable, compact portable LCD digital TV with 7-inch wide-screen display; built-in rechargeable battery; receives analog and digital over-the-air and unscrambled cable channels; clear picture quality when you can get a signal; includes remote and second, more powerful antenna; built-in kickstand for easy table viewing." I'm actually thinking about getting this in the near future, I know I'm going to need it. The only thing that sucks about it is that the battery life is kind of weak for a tv show. I'm guessing from what I read, that you could only watch about 4 sit coms and it'll die. haha

3D Coming to Your Home!

So what's next for American's to expect for the latest invention? I'm pretty sure that someone has come up with this invention of a 3D illusion for your very own home. I thought in this picture that I found that you could use it to make an illusion of a fire that is actually happening. I think with this kind of invention, you could watch DVDs that are available in 3D at home (movies like for example UP!) I think that this is a great new thing that could be added to the family home. This could add more family time because it's such a new thing. Other than that, I do believe that this will be a little pricey for today's downfall of economics. But as the economy worsens, the forecast for the TV market is looking grim. The LCD TV market is only expected to grow about 17 percent in terms of units shipped in 2009, according to research firm DisplaySearch. This is down from growth of about 29 percent in 2008. Plasma TV growth is also expected to suffer with the market only expected to grow by about 5 percent in 2009 compared with a 24 percent rise in 2008, DisplaySearch said.

I really do like this idea and hope that it comes out soon! (=
