Was successful! Used the phrase only as it could not find phone numbers in the zipcodes I tried.
Thanks now to learn all about it.

Re: Is iOS 4.1 update worth it, or does it come w/problems (for 3GS)

The update didn't add that to mine, at least with my Sony DRBT22. I am now able to go to next and previous selections, which I couldn't before. I don't see any available choices in the General - Bluetooth settings on the phone. It's an improvement, but I wonder if there's something I'm missing.

I don't know if it's the iPhone up date or the update to iTunes 10.0, but it seems to have really helped my sync times. Much better now.

On my headset the talk/end button does play/pause (always has), but now the
volume up/down now does skip forward/back (if press, hold for 2 seconds and
release) or seek forward/back if press and hold - I remember reading that
they were implementing it but didn't realize it until I kept skipping tracks
/ podcasts when I was trying to push volume up/down and held for too long.

I was sent an youtube video from a friend. I played it on my iPhone 4 & was blown away by the quality of video of Yosemite Park.

I'd like to share it here & have other share other online videos that play well on the iPhone.

Here's the link & it is family friendly:

GV Connect Approved, Google Voice App Minus Push

Sean needs to fix the "Magic Key" issue that prevents you from having
Multiple Login and Gv mobile

Sent to you by Bill Boulware via Google Reader: GV Connect Approved,
Google Voice App Minus Push via iSmashPhone - Turn your Phone into your
MyPhone by Jacob Lopez on 9/19/10




Apple has approved GV Connect, a native Google Voice App. It's
available for $2.99. The App seems to be having some issues with people
outside of the US getting hung up at the loading screen and on the
logging in screen.



Here are the features:



GV Connect is a native iPhone/iPod Touch application which allows you
to interact with your existing "Google Voice" account much faster than
using the web interface:

• Place calls using your Google Voice number rather than your mobile
number - enter number directly, select a contact from your device's
contacts, or call back any number in your history.
• Send and receive text messages (SMS) from your Google Voice number.
• Listen to voicemails and recorded conversations right on your device
(allowing you to pause, rewind, or fast forward to any point within the
message) - voicemails will also show the transcription of the message
when available.
• Mark messages as starred, attach notes to conversations,
block/unblock senders, or delete conversations.
• Easily search in your history by contact, message, or note.
• Messages are stored on your device for offline access.
• Composing notes and text messages can be done in landscape mode.
• Quickly change various Google Voice account settings (call
forwarding, do-not-disturb, message notifications, …) directly from
within the application.
• Automatic checking for new messages while the application is active.
• Direct access to your device's contacts without needing to
synchronize them with Google
• All communication is done with the Google Voice website directly, no
need to hand over your account information to a third-party.
• Full support for fast app switching in iOS4 and high-resolution
graphics for retina displays.

Please note that GV Connect is NOT a SIP/VOIP application and will thus
not allow making calls from an iPad or iPod Touch without a separate
VOIP/SIP application. GV Connect currently does not support answering a
call back to your 'Google Talk' callback number directly on the device.

GV Connect stores your account password securely in your device's
keychain for faster login when launching the application -
communication is done via secure connections (SSL) to the Google Voice
servers and no contact information (other than the contact's phone
number which is required to place a call or send a message) is sent to
Google. All operations are fully synchronized with your Google Voice
account.
Apps that bring Google Voice to the iOS devices have had quite the
history with Apple. Such as being pulled from the App Store after
already having been available. There are other such Apps on the way as
well, such as GV Mobile +.
Some also seem to look at it hoping that it's a VOIP type App, know
that it's not.

$2.99 at the App Store

ListPro is finally here!

Posted by: "Jeffrey Kaplan" yahoo@gordol.org   gordoljk

Sun Sep 19, 2010 9:37 pm (PDT)



A few days ago, Ilium Software finally released ListPro for iOS
devices, and it's ad-supported freeware (which means that on a
WiFi-only device, no ads at all...). The desktop companion is
somewhere around $20, or $10 if upgrading it from v4 or older.

I've been using it now, and I was initially turned off my the new
"Gallery" feature that sits in front of the Lists, but after a brief
discussion with tech support, found out that it's a non-issue as on
the handheld the app will re-open to the last place you were and the
desktop app can be set to open on your lists.

Other than that, all of the old functionality I remember from my Treo
days are still there, though some layout functions are different.
Fortunately, not horribly so.

The biggest problem is that HanDBase has finally become a serious
contender for me as a general database application. However, their
desktop app still sucks big time, and I find it essentially useless as
a shopping list whereas ListPro seems to be built with that in mind
with three-way status switches and the ability to "reset" the list
with a single command.

I will check it out.
I do have to admit HanDBase is much nicer now and I am using it alot. The desktop sync works perfectly which is unusual.

Sigrid, the other option is getting a wireless data card or MiFi solution it
is definitely cheaper than $75 per month and would be separate from your
iPhone line so you don't lose your Unlimited iPhone Data - much faster than
dial up.
