Check out that zoom, y'all

TelNot sure if you've seen this thing making the rounds, so I figured I'd post about it.

Basically, it's a giant zoom lens for your iPhone. You get a 6x zoom (most likely digital zoom since it's only $19 plus $3 shipping). But you also get a strap and carrying case.

If for some reason you want one of these things, here's a link to the site that sells it.

So the next time you have to be 6 times closer to Britney Spears when snapping her picture at a Hollywood Rite-Aid, this is probably all you need. Or, you could spend just $4.50 and get her a Frappuccino from Starbucks.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have some underwear to put away. And that, dear callers, is my last Britney joke for the night.

Thanks for calling.

Google calendar optimized for iPhone

GooglecalEveryone has a favorite calendar app.

For some, it's Outlook. For others, Entourage. And then there's iCal.

But growing in popularity is Google Calendar. And now, it's optimized for the iPhone. As you can see from the screengrab, it looks pretty good.

I personally am all over the map. I use Entourage at work, although I should be using iCal, because I have a .mac account and can sync everything over the Web. I don't know why I don't. I'm going to take a closer look at Google Calendar ... it looks like it's got some great features.
You can find all the information you need to make an informed decision at google.com/calendar.

Please let me know what you think because as someone who could pick up and switch to something entirely new, your input means a lot.

Thanks for calling.

An iPhone case I'd buy

SmartcaseUp until now, I've said that I'm not going to buy an iPhone case, at least not based on what's on the market right now.

I'm closer to changing my mind today.

Check out this site, Waterfield Designs, and click on the iPhone case link. I know from being a past customer that this company makes high-quality products. And if you read the descriptions, one of the cases actually does double duty to clear the smudges off the iPhone's screen.

And if you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Thanks for calling.
