iPhone 3.0 and Apple rumors

The more I read about iPhone 3.0 and the rumors of video, a 3.2 megapixel camera, and the many other enhancements, it looks like I’ll be moving to that platform this summer. It’s not that I’m against the iPhone, but I get my iPhone fix by using my wife’s iPhone. Plus, I depend too much on my calendar, and my works system doesn’t work with the iPhone… yet.

I’ve always wanted an Archos media player, but have been holding out. There are rumors of an Apple version coming out soon. The Archos has all of the features and functions I want, but the browser isn’t as functional as Safari on the iPhone/iTouch. If Apple’s version (rumors are either 10 inch Netbook, Tablet, or iTouch), provides the Safari browser and media capability, I may move over to that. If it ends up to be a functional OS X netbook/tablet, even better!!! I just hope that it has some type of DVR like functionality similar to the Archos.

Regarding the kids, they’ll be 9 months old this Friday!!! Wow, time flies by fast . They’re crawling, playing, and doing stuff together. The last 9 months have gone by so fast with both family and work.

I hope to keep my blog up more regularly. It’s been over 60 days since my last post.

The kids are 6 months old today. We basically hung out at home and followed the asian tradition of eating noodles to signify long life. It’s amazing how much the kids have grown in 6 months. They are both doing well and are doing new things all the time. They’ve been eating solids since 5 months, but we’ve been sticking with the basic cereals. We’re now deciding what other types of food to introduce him to this week.

I’m excited in getting iLife ‘09 as soon as it comes out for purchase. The new features are exciting. I have a ton of movies to make and I might actually get around to doing them with iMovie ‘09. Also, the Garageband features may get me to pick up my guitar again. I have been on and off learning the guitar for the last 5 years.

I plan on reorganizing my WordPress categories. Several friends I’ve spoken to during the holidays have told me they track my tech blogs. I’ll add a tech category for those of you interested in my tech opinions.

Well, it’ll be off to work again on Monday.
