Just a few test pics with the new iPhone 4 camera. The one of me and Gabe is the front VGA camera. So good, and so fast!

- iPhone OS 4 in Keyboard Dock Easter Egg – Cmd+Space Switches Keyboard Language http://post.ly/kOkI #
- I love that Apple is giving early access to @xenijardin and @boingboing. Their reviews are really great. http://j.mp/cepWFN #
- Adobe Audition coming to the Mac http://j.mp/9xOfNh Finally. #
- @LeStew Once you have seen some of the magic tricks Audition can do to sound, you'll believe. I've never found anything equivalent on Mac. in reply to LeStew #
- I got 43 comments on a post I wrote years ago on something like Audition for Mac. I'm not the only one who wants it. http://bit.ly/cBFT8y #
- @funkatron As a podcaster, I'm sure other apps can do what Audition does. I need to learn the equivalent tricks in them. in reply to funkatron #
- Fedex still shows my iPhone 4 to arrive on Thursday. Apple said that would be the case, and it would update in the morning. Still anxious. #
iPhone with OS 4 in Keyboard Dock Easter Egg – Cmd+Space Switches Keyboard Language
I have the Emoji keyboard installed, and while messing around with my iPhone 3GS with iOS 4 installed, and discovered that Cmd+Space toggles between the international keyboards you have installed, like so. Neat.

- Trying to download and install iOS 4. iTunes is misbehaving. *sigh* #
- I think all the people downloading iOS4 are straining the intertubes in my locale. #
- The fact that I have like 29 app updates (for iOS4 compatibility, no doubt) isn't helping speed the download process any. #
- Whee! I can haz iOS4! http://twitpic.com/1ysq5j #
- First thing I did in iOS4: set up my work exchange account to work alongside Google Push. http://twitpic.com/1ystbm #
- Already running into the "can only have 12 apps in a folder" limitation in iOS4. I have way more than 12 games installed.
# - @MaverickNY iOS4 took about as long as I'd expect a 378MB file to download. I didn't time it, but no more than 15-20 minutes. in reply to MaverickNY #
- @penmachine @JBern Yeah, I'm going to have to sub-categorize my games. Thinking Online/Sims/Action/etc. in reply to penmachine #
- @baub No, folders in folders doesn't work in iOS – I just tried it. in reply to baub #
- @MicBP @edmistond Google Sync (email, calendar, and contacts via Exchange) works great for me. I love it, though it has occasional problems. in reply to MicBP #
- Finally, I can cram all the built-in iPhone apps I don't use (Stocks, Weather, Notes, etc.) into an out-of-the-way folder. #iOS4 #
- @LoSzabo I like Osfoora HD on the iPad. What makes the iPhone version better than Tweetie/Twitter? in reply to LoSzabo #
- AWESOME! iBooks 1.1 syncs your place/bookmarks across free ePub books you've added, not just purchased books. Woo hoo! #
- Just got a real-looking email from Apple saying my iPhone 4 will arrive a day early. Hoax? Miracle? FedEx still says 6/24. #
- The iPhone 4 day-early thing seems true. Tons of people tweeting it. FedEx says they're in Oakland right now, so it's plausible. Yay #

- The amazing @rachelbancroft made a ZOMG delicious grass-fed steak dinner for Father's Day. I'm in after-beef ecstasy. #
- @grigs @verso @semaphoria I'll throw my unsolicited $0.02 in. Reeder for iPad is in fact the best thing since sliced anything. in reply to grigs #

- 'Galcon Fusion' for iPad On Sale – 75% Off for a Week http://j.mp/9kJwkY Well worth it. Get it now. #
- Just took the weed whacker to my front yard. Yes, it was that long. It was as if a million blades of grass cried out, and were silenced. #
- Now I'm covered in gobbets of plant guts, and my alergies are going nuts. #snorfle #
- Seeing Toy Story 3 with the kids. So excited! (@ Regal Movies on TV 16) http://4sq.com/6qnRnn #
- I just unlocked the "Zoetrope" badge on @foursquare! http://4sq.com/cnSICt #
- Toy Story 3 was perfect. We loved it. Best movie I've seen all year, if not longer. And yes, you'll cry at the end. #
- Just got shipping notice/tracking number for my iPhone 4 preorder! Let the countdown officially begin! #
- Why Angry Birds is so much fun http://j.mp/aOECuF Insight from Dave. I agree. #

- I chuckle every time I think of the title of the book "Billy Twitters and His Blue Whale Problem" http://amzn.to/bacdNl #
- For the record, I am unconvinced about the future of 3D in movies/games. Too fiddly, experience is poor (esp. for people with RX glasses). #
- @ddmcd I've read Ebert's thoughts on 3D, and I tend to agree with him. Plus, I don't want to buy a new TV and wear special glasses at home. in reply to ddmcd #
- @kellyrfeller Honestly, I couldn't care less about helping Hollywood make things harder to pirate, if it ruins the user experience. DRM sux. in reply to kellyrfeller #
- @bobduffy @kellyrfeller I don't condone or practice piracy, but DRM has gotten so extreme that it can ruin the whole experience. in reply to bobduffy #
- @bobduffy Oh. That makes more sense. And "unconvinced" means "willing to be convinced". Just not seeing it yet. in reply to bobduffy #
- @kellyrfeller @bobduffy Yeah, if enough people are willing to pay 2x the ticket price for a 3D movie, or buy new 3D TVs, they'll do it. in reply to kellyrfeller #
- I can't believe that Toy Story 3 still has 100% on Rotten Tomatoes after 125 reviews. Wow. http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/toy_story_3/ #
- Anyone want to buy something from me? I've got this @square card reader and app, and no one to give me money with it!
# - @blaircook I don't know how to run an airline miles scheme, so I couldn't say. in reply to blaircook #
