How to get 'Steve Jobs' to respond to your email

Wish you could get Apple CEO Steve Jobs to email you back? It's well-known that he, or someone monitoring his account, will email end users in response to a comment or query. Here is the next best thing. eSarcasm has taken the time to create a Steve Jobs email creator . Indeed, based on their name, you might expect something like this from them. The output you get is sort of what you might expect from an ELIZA-like system . In other words, it's something, but may not really make sense.

Device-agnostic video chat comes to Fring

What's the bad thing about Apple's new iPhone 4 video chat feature, FaceTime? Well, aside from the fact that it can only be used via wi-fi, it also needs to be done iPhone 4 to iPhone 4. Both of those restrictions are not an issue with the new version of Fring for the iPhone. The new version of Fring will allow device-agnostic video chats, which means now Fring users can video chat with any Skype or Fring user, regardless of device, and even to PCs. Additionally, it works over 3G, though certainly not as well (OK, with lags and jitters). At any rate, given the new version of Fring, we can now have video chats between Android and iPhone users, arguing about which device platform is best. Apple's FaceTime is an openn standard, Apple says, though it remains to be seen if any others will adopt it. It's also a fact that while the impression that many have gotten is that Apple invented video chats via cell phones, that's not the case.

Owner's hand burned when iPhone 4 ignites

It's a long and storied tradition: not just Apple products catching fire in one way or another , but of portable devices in general . Now we have the first iPhone 4 incident, with the new iDevice igniting while hooked up to a PC with a USB cable. For one it doesn't seem to be a battery issue. From the image acquired by BGR (above) it's clear that the device isn't going to be repaired. It also appears the owner was using the official Apple USB cable that shipped with the device. The customer took the device into an AT&T store in hopes of replacement. According to BGR's AT&T source, an Apple Store indicated that it appears there was a defective iPhone 4 USB port involved. The source added that the customer's hand was slightly burned. Interestingly, a commenter at the BGR post said he plugged in his iPhone 4, and a few minutes later saw his first ever “excess temperature” warning, and the iPhone entered safe mode as well. Later, when he plugged it ...

Woman surprised by HTC EVO 4G pre-loaded with porn

Steve Jobs famously said that "Folks who want porn can buy an Android phone." This Ann Arbor, Michigan woman didn't buy an Android phone for porn, but got it anyway, and preloaded to boot. The reason that Rhonda Lee ended up with porn on her phone is that the HTC EVO 4G she bought wan't new. She bought it from a third-party (read: not corporate) Sprint store, and they said it was new, but that was obviously not the case. There were five video clips on the phone, some as long as 12 minutes. Worse, Lee ended up discovering the clips when she was showing the device, which has been sold out for a great deal of its "lifespan," to co-workers. Lee tried to return it to the third party store, but employees first denied that the phone had been used. Later, they 'fessed up and said it had been returned by another customer. Meanwhile, Lee is still looking for an apology from Sprint (realistically, it's unclear why as this is obviously not a corporate store...
