This is the madness at the Apple Store Ala Moana in Honolulu, Hawaii at about 12:30 in the afternoon. This is the biggest line for a launch product here in Hawaii. Looked like concert tickets for MJ or the Stones.

Please Watch Before You Setup You New iPhone. This may save you lots of heartache. I give a little advice I learn during my time as a Mac Genius at Apple Retail Store over the last three iPhone launches. Don’t let iTunes restore your old phone data to the new iPhone 4.

I for some strange reason kept my really old A/V dock from my original iPhone and much to my surprise it work perfectly with the new iPhone 4. Awesome. Arigato @eriokura for the tip.

Not to be left behind by Amazon’s Kindle App and Apple’s iBook’s App, Famed bookseller Barnes and Noble has just released the long awaited eReader App for iPad.

I think the best feature of B&N’s hardware ebook reader device the NOOK was the lend to a friend feature. The ability to lend books just like we would a paper and glue version has long been missing from readers like the Kindle. The “LendMe” feature allows you to lend or borrow books on any of the BN eReader platforms including “The Holy Trinity” (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch), Mac, PC or NOOK.

I love to read books, a trait I pick up from my mother, and there was no better way to consume books than with my Kindle 1. However, since the iPad gave me 3 major sources and growing of places to score really good content my Kindle is collecting dust. What has been you experience with eReading? Leave me a comment to insert your $.02.

I buy a lot of domain names for clients and when i do i always try to find the hot promo code of the week for my favorite registrar GoDaddy.com. I used to spend way too long searching the Googleverse* to find codes only to get dead, expired or otherwise useless codes. Now I have found searching recently tweed promo codes the absolute best way to find the GoDaddy deals

HowTo:
Twitter search for “Godaddy” + “Promo”: or just simply click this link and save it to your bookmarks: http://search.twitter.com/search?q=godaddy+promo

Moodboard Pro is a Killer iPad App

I just got this app and I have to say so far its cool. I’ll be doing a full video review of the app in a few days after i put it through it’s paces. From what i gather thus far it is very intuitive and easy to just jump right in and start futtin’ around getting creative.

I love all things design and this is no exception as Moodboard Pro has a very nice interface design. It seems as if they have a great understanding of the touch interface and it ergonomics.

Until I get my video of this great app up please take a look at the developers video:

Totally on a more patriotic note, the designer/co-creator of the app Kyle Tress, is a World Cup Skeleton athlete and a 2014 Winter Olympic hopeful. That alone make me want to buy this app as US athletes have to raise their own funds to be an Olympian. Check out his blog http://www.kyletress.com/

I’d say buy it now even if you don’t need it so you can help out this inspiring Olympian… well and because it is a great app. This one will surely end up on my home screen.
