Treyarch to Launch Free iPhone App for Call of Duty: World at War

by

I posted this over on our sister site Xbox360Digest as well, but it deserves to be posted here as well I think:

Not exactly Xbox related but yet it is… if you’ve got an iPhone and COD:WaW on your Xbox you can link them and access stats, news etc with this free App from Treyarch

Fans Can Soon Access Stats and News Updates Anytime, Anywhere

Marking a first for the Call of Duty franchise and its millions of dedicated fans, Activision Publishing, Inc. (NASDAQ:ATVI) and Call of Duty : World at War developer Treyarch, will launch the first iPhone(TM) application as a companion for the blockbuster game today via iTunes for free. The Call of Duty: World at War Companion allows fans who own iPhones to remotely access important news and updates from the palm of their hand. Additionally, players with linked accounts on www.CoDWaW.com (for the Xbox 360(TM) video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and the PLAYSTATION 3 computer entertainment system from Sony) will be able to see key stats from the game.

BlackBerry Bold vs. iPhone

by

(Image taken from The iPhone Blog)

Every once in a while I like writing about other topics than Windows Mobile. After all, there are other mobile OS which are very good and successful and I’m even using them for periods of time with a lot of pleasure.

I found an interesting article at PCWorld, comparing between BlackBerry Bold and iPhone 3GS.

The writer is definitely an iPhone fan and seems to criticize most of the BlackBerry features (UI, trackball, mails functionality, keyboard).

I found some interesting points in the article, but I have to admit I do not agree with many of them (I do agree with some). For example, I actually like the BlackBerry emails application, I also love the keyboard, and think that the trackball is great.

I do think that there is no comparison with the iPhone when it comes to user interface and third party applications.

RapidRepair.com To Tear Apart An iPhone 3GS Friday

by

About a week ago I wrote an article about RapidRepair.com tearing apart the Palm Pre and exposing it’s inner workings and calculating the cost at $170.00 total. RapidRepair.com also writes instruction manuals for devices that are very detailed and break things down step by step including all the necessary tools. Of course, RapidRepair.com also repairs devices as well.

Today, RapidRepair.com announced that they would be tearing apart the new iPhone 3Gs and giving iPhone fans a first look at what’s under the hood. RapidRepair.com will also compare the iPhone against other devices including the Palm Pre which is the latest device to challenge the iPhone. We’ll have to wait and see how the new iPhone matches up in RapidRepair.com comparison. But as we wait for that, why tell us how you feel about how the iPhone stacks up against the Palm Pre or your favorite device!

Read the RapidRepair.com press release after the break.

There’s An App For That…And For This

by

WiPhone If you haven’t seen an iPhone ‘there’s an app for that’ ad then you haven’t been watching tv…at all. And I’ve been shouting at the tv each time they come on about how I have the same app on my Fuze and typically I’ve had it for a while – there just isn’t a glossy tv ad about it. Finally the commercial about leveling a bookshelf with an iPhone threw me over the edge. When I got my Fuze I remember showing off the gsen configuration that’s just a bubble level and everyone greeted my shiny toy with a bunch of mehs. Now that it’s on the iPhone those same people tell me how cool the iPhone is and when I remind them I showed them the same thing on my phone months ago I get ‘yeah it’s really neat that it’s on the iPhone just like all of those other apps it has”. The time has come to go through their commercials one by one and compare apples to windows… And let’s remember the ads claim “there’s an app for that only on the iPhone’. The ads are on Apple’s site here, so let’s see how honest Steve is with us.
