As is often sometimes the case, I miss something that happens on the old interweb and in this instance, I’ve been behind the curve on the battle between the iPhone and Droid.  It started in anger when the Droid camp released the following baiting video…

Which appears to have been deftly batted back by the iPhone camp…

Which ever way you look at it, it’s given us something good…. a beautiful song from (the aptely named) Mozella called Magic (Oh Oh Oh)

Whilst I’m in the throws of trying to decide for myself whether or not to plump for a new iPhone when it finally comes onto Vodafone it’s painfull to hear that Windows Mobile 6.5 will arrive soon and it’s likely to suck.

I’ve loved my Windows Smartphones for many years now, mainly because of its fantastic integration with Exchange, but iPhone has that now too so what am I left with in Windows?

Decide amongst yourselves.

There are some software developments that wont ever make a dent on the world, and there’s some that could change the way we do things…. FOREVER.  The chaps at TLA have set about changing the world with paradigm shifting technologies and their latest release is no exception.

The new PCalc software for the iPhone has a new “patent-worthy profanity filter” that filters out profanity created by typing in numbers such as “5318008″ into your calculator and turning it upside down.

Have you, or somebody close to you, ever turned your calculator upside down and accidentally seen a mildly suggestive word? Have you ever been in a maths class, and had to put up with groups of giggling boys performing elaborate calculations that are not part of the lesson?

Yes, it’s one of the main problems affecting the calculator industry today, the so-called “calculator words”. These otherwise harmless devices can be made to display smut at the press of a few buttons

Saving the world from mildy amusing words

Thank God for PCalc
