Mobile - As luck would have it, I'll be in the market for a brand-new phone in the coming weeks Terribly exciting, yes But there's a bit of a problem: the two "biggest" phones out there, the iPhoneand all those Android-based ones, rub me the wrong way Longtime readers will know that I'm fairly neurotic, sorta like George Constanza from Seinfeld Does the phrase Jerkstore mean anything to you? That's 100 percent me So what's a person to do when, for reasons I'll describe, he wants nothing to do with Apple or Google phones?

Mobile - So you've been using your iPhone for a couple months or years now You might be addicted to your iPhone Even if you're not addicted, chances are that you have a stock of applications on which you rely heavily Without a doubt, the single most useful application on my iPhone, and the one I use constantly throughout the day, is email I live by email, and I read and compose email messages far more often than I make actual phone calls with my phone To preserve my sanity, I've disabled the notification sound for new emails: if I hadn't, my phone would be making noise pretty constantly throughout the day But that's not an ideal situation, because there are times when I do want to be notified of an important new email Enter MailTones, an application that allows you to set custom alert tones, and makes good use of Apple's push notifications

Mobile - Apple has set the standard that once every year they will release a new version of the iPhone It stands to reason that this year will be no different, with a new model likely coming sometime this summer But arguably just as important as Apple's hardware refresh is the accompanying software refresh that comes with it as well And that's why it shouldn't be surprising at all that whispers of iPhone OS 40 are starting to grow But this year, the timeline appears a bit off
As AppleInsider reported today, iPhone OS 40 is likely to deliver multitasking support If true, that will make it perhaps the most important OS upgrade for the platform yet However, in reporting the news, AppleInsider also notes that the software, "remains under development and reportedly has a quite 'way to go' before it's ready for prime time" Looking back at the iPhone OS SDK history you'll notice a constant: Apple has released the beta builds in March the past two years We're already well into March this year, and so far, no word about Apple being close to doing the same
