With a versatile score-keeping tool, players enjoy instant access to overall personal game stats including number of putts, fairways in regulation, and greens in regulation, by course, for the most recent 18 rounds played, and a host of historical data; showing shot, and club, history for personalized club recommendations.

iPhone 4

Posted by A.I. On June - 7 - 2010

“I don’t know if you’ve ever seen this,” Jobs joked, provoking a roar of laughter from the audience as he showed off the now-familiar redesign of the new iPhone.

The New iPhone 4

Yes, we know you’ve read every article, watched every video, and seen every picture, and maybe even helped “find” the prototype relating to the new iPhone. And yet, you still feel like you need more info?

It’s ok, we feel the same way. We’re going to go over the basics, and what we’re particularly excited about. Taking a huge leap from the past three iterations, iPhone 4 ($200-$300 and yes this is the official name) makes up for the past six months of killer Android releases with features like an Apple A4 processor, app multitasking (now you don’t have to stop Pandora to answer a text), 7 hours of talk time, 40 hours of music playback, a backlit 5-megapixel camera with an LED flash (finally!) and 720p video recording and the ability to edit movies with iMovie‘s new iPhone app, a front-facing camera for “FaceTime” video to video conference calls, an eye-popping 960 x 640 “Retina” display, all housed in a glass and stainless steel case that looks more like the rest of the Apple line, and less like the plastic bubble “second cousin” of the family.

The flat, stainless-steel-rimmed iPhone 4 will be available in black or white, and it’ll go on sale June 24, Jobs said. Expect to pay $299 for the 32GB version (same price as last year’s 32GB iPhone 3GS, provided you sign a two-year AT&T contract), or $199 for the 16GB model

Pre-Sales start June 15.

Flip Mino HD Camera

(Make sure to click the HD button on the bottom right corner to get the full experience)

According to Moore’s law, the number of transistors that can be placed inexpensively on an integrated circuit increases substantially fast- namely doubling every eighteen months. What this basically means is that technology grows at an exponential rate, and if you do the math, we possess only 1% of the technology we will have in 10 years. Which makes sense considering 10 years ago we barely had HD anything, and now we hold the ability to record 60 minutes of the stuff for about $200.

flip-hd2Introducing the Flip Mino HD Camera. We love this little guy. Pictures are fun, but there’s nothing like video to relive moments. The fact that it shoots in HD makes it even sweeter. You get 2 hours of battery life and 4 Gigs of space which allows you shoot up to an hour of video, or you can skip out on the HD and get a whopping 2 hours of video. Use it for your amateur films or your amateur “home videos” ;) . Whatever you use this on, you’re sure to have a good time with it.

minohd-blackJust stay safe, and remember it’s not waterproof lol.
