Cellular Line iPhone / iPod Solar Emergency Charger Review

Most of you who own an iPhone or iPod Touch know that it’s a wonderful piece of technology, which is both a good and a bad thing. The good? You can do anything on it and you rely on it for music, gaming, GPS, office work, email, social networking, video viewing… The bad? The battery dies as fast as you charge it and you’re constantly trying to juggle between your needs and the settings for screen brightness, WiFi, 3G and Bluetooth connectivity, and Push email and notifications. Try to go on one road trip and if you don’t have a car charger, this becomes a daunting painful task.

This is where Cellular Line’s iPhone and iPod Solar Emergency Charger from MobileFun.co.uk comes into play. There are a lot of portable chargers out there, but I have had a fascination for solar powered chargers for a long time and thanks to this review unit, I was finally able to test one of them.

iPod Touch 4G vs 3G – Hardware Tour, Size And Retina Display Comparison

It’s only one year ago when I got gifted my 8GB iPod Touch 3rd generation and started discovering and enjoying the world of iOS and that ever-growing AppStore with thousands of cool apps and games. I was hooked almost instantly and used it extensively for a while, then all of a sudden, it started gathering dust in my drawer for a couple of months, and I was back in my old Symbian routine, using a Nokia E72 and N97 Mini. That was until I decided to take the iPod Touch back again, jailbreak it because I felt I was missing an opportunity there, and with multitasking enabled, we became the “bestest” of friends and stayed that way ever since. Lately, I’ve even been using it more and more, relying on it for all my Music and Gaming needs, for my RSS feeds with Reeder, for all my medical apps needs, and a lot of other functions too. Needless to say, those 8GB filled up pretty fast and I was battling the free MBs at least once or twice a week.

That was until the new generation of iPod Touch was announced, and the 32GB one was presented at a relatively affordable price, with all the novelties inside. I couldn’t help but cave in. And I’m pretty excited to say that I’ve been a happy happy camper ever since.

New iPod Touch with Retina Display , Facetime , HD Video Recording launched

The iPod Touch is pretty much an iPhone without a phone. When Apple released the iPhone 3GS , i tried hard to get hold of one without a contract for a reasonable price and was disappointed. The iPod 32 GB came to my rescue then with the same faster processor and plenty of RAM. I still use the iPod Touch as a Music and Gaming device. Apple today announced the 4th gen iPod touch today along with the revamped Nano and Shuffle and Apple TV.

AppShopper Is Your Ideal App Store Friend

The Apple App Store has been growing to a point where you almost wonder if it’ll explode one day or if it can realistically get any larger. There are tons of cool new applications everyday, and many existing applications that drop prices every now and then. Getting up to date about those limited time offers can be very tedious if you’re interested in some apps or games but think they’re expensive now. Yes, there are actually tons of actual apps on the App Store that let you follow these offers, like BargainBin, PandoraBox, AppMiner, some of which let you create watchlists to monitor price changes. But let’s face it, do you remember to launch those apps everyday to check for changes, or do you find the badges notifications efficient? I didn’t, I wanted an email when one of my favorite apps drops its price, and I wanted a history of an app’s price to see if the developer tends to do frequent or infrequent offers on it so I can snatch it for a realistic price. That’s when I discovered AppShopper.

A Byte of Apple: Our weekly wrap on all news Apple!

You either love ’em or you hate ’em, but you simply cannot ignore them. Apple is one of those brands that polarizes opinions – the products undoubtedly cost much more than they should, are arguably not as spec-rich as the competition, but who else makes computer systems and personal entertainment devices that look so damn stylish, yet compact, at the same time?
