I share my thoughts on the story that Gizmodo broke on a “lost” iPhone prototype. The features of this iPhone sound pretty good, but I couldn’t help but be bothered about how everything went down. Gizmodo has a lot of explaining to do.

They have opened the doors to the general public to develop on the webOS platform. Palm is offering a great selection of options for developers to choose from. They can choose a $99 annual “full” account (fee waived for a limited time) or choose free options. Palm’s distribution differs from Apple in that they are allowing developers to use their own URL. All in all, it’s good news for Palm and its developers. For more information, visit this link: http://j.mp/8CHi8p

First off, this package comes with a LOT of goodies: a iPhone/iPod Cable, an AC Adapter, and a two port USB Car Charger! It’s called the 1800 since it houses 1800 mAh (milliamp-hours). The iPhone has 1200 mAh, so this battery backup system is more than enough to charge your unit. The RichardSolo 1800 connects to the iPhone (or iPod Touch) via the cable and gives you a “dongle-like” apparatus. RichardSolo also offers a sturdy brace for which can connect the battery unit without the cable. Another bonus of the RichardSolo 1800 is that it includes a built in light for finding your keys and a LASER. Yes, a laser. This a great system for recharding your iPhone and I’ve found a great use for it since I’ve re-enabled Gmail push (which drains my iPhone battery quickly) Check out the video for a walkthrough of the features and my additional thoughts. The RichardSolo 1800 is available for $69.95 at http://www.richardsolo.com . Remember, you can save 15% off any item (including this one) in the iPod/iPhone/Blackberry category by using the code “bwana”. This code is good until October 31, 2009. Thanks RichardSolo for sending me a review unit! Enjoy and take care!

I contacted RichardSolo after a tip from Twitter on their products and they were kind enough to send me a review unit. This case is a two part case meaning that it splits apart into two components. It is designed to work with RichardSolo products in particular. Some of their battery backup products have a special attachment that this case accommodates. It is a comfortable case, seems sturdy and is easy to remove. This case goes for $25 on RichardSolo.com, but if you use the code “bwana”, you can save 15% until October 31st. http://www.richardsolo.com
