OK so i have my Brand New iPhone i tried to charge my iPhone for the Trip im going on across the courty this week and well i find out that the new iphone does not charge it see picture.

and here is the picture of the screen without the charger

Charging is not Supported what its should charge…
thats all for now but thats stupid so my solution


Install an FM Modulator in the car so i tore the car apart and well fixed a fm Modulator to the radio and now it works great still stupid that it does not charge the phone

iPhone 3G

Posted by TechIsCool

So today i went to the apple store and bought a… iPhone 3G its awsome but how long it took to get to the front of the line was crazy i got to the line at 6:30 am and they opened at 8:00 am so 1:30 minutes before they opened

This was 10 minutes after we got there the line was crazy long.

So after i reached the store they had a huge line inside the store way to many people to even have in the store

This was at the start of the line so after we started to hear that the activation was taken like 25 minutes for the phone to start and then we took the home without having it activated we had to do something to inform others so we did this

it says activation error so we though it was appropriate to do but you know some people don’t like it so don’t complain we left it up until we left the store and they were all chang by then

So i bought a 16GB White iPhone looks very nice

So there is is in all it glory well that’s all for today :) i will keep you updated if i find anything stupid with it

WALL•E

Posted by TechIsCool

Wall.e Movie

Yes i know its a kids movie but i had to go and see it i think there are only something like 400 words in the whole thing but i loved it. The political message was totally there and while you watched you had so much fun in the environment that Pixar created for them. so much fun. love all the fun robots that were broken and Auto was my favorite character because he was the autopilot and was the control freak of the ship. good points about how if we are over consuming and buying to much of things that we are going to kill the world.

So I am Home

Posted by TechIsCool

Yah its been a long week with lots of things burning… we went to Trinity Shasta lake for our regular family vacation but this year was different there was the many forest fires in the area even today 6/29/2008 they still not even under control.

Total estimated acreage: 1880
Percent contained:
0
Cause: Lightning
Resources Committed
Great Basin Type 2 Incident Management Team

So it has been this way since Saturday of last week. that is the week that we decide to go camping with the whole family so we bear with the smoke hoping it will clear out sometime Monday or Tuesday we were wishing here is what it looked like on Tuesday two days after we got there.

That was on Tuesday as you can see the dot is where the picture is taken and the line is how far you can see about 300ft. now the last day that we were at trinity the day after all the smoke and falling dabri we decided to pull the Jet ski out of the water for it to dry of since we at that time had decided to pack and leave the next morning. then it got better started to clear and made our how lives have a different attitude to the weather we decided to stay for the rest of the day and i think you can tell why look at the picture now.
