I have owned a psp since it first came out and one thing about it has always been a gripe of mine. The fact that typing on it sucks big time. There hasn’t been much of an effort to correct how terrible typing on a psp can be. It’s frustratingly difficult and a pain. Then I started playing with writingpad a shape writing technology app for the iPhone where you can draw the word instead of typing it. If this can be maniputated or interpreted so words can be scrolled on instread of touched could be loads easier then clicking on a button a hundred times to get to the letter you want. Lord help you if you missed a letter then you have to start over to find the letter you just missed. But if you can just draw on a virtual keyboard then typing will in essence be much easier. Just an idea out there for any one ***cough Sony*** who would like to incorperate this technology in to their products.

That’s right is not just men out there who are the players and relationship wreckers out there. Women have just as many schemes which can be quite misleading and extremely devious. So let me put you on to a few of them and help sharpen your senses or make you more paranoid, which ever comes first. (more…)

iPhone old and new side by side

iPhone new and old Side by Side from Encript on Vimeo.

My friend and I decided to meet up on the day after he purchased his iphone 3g. We thought it would be a nice idea to make a little comparison video, showing the new iphone 3g compared to the old one. What you cant tell in the video is the yellowish hue that everyone noticed in the 3G model. He actually purchased his phone on launch day but Ive been a little busy to upload the videos. Still good to see if you are looking to get your self the new one if your shopping around.

What you will notice off the bat is that the new iphone is significantly lighter in weight. Its suppose to be bigger but you really wont notice that there is any difference unless you pull out a ruler and begin to measure. The screen definitely is yellower then the cooler blue first generation phone. That isn’t a problem at all, besides they say they will correct the color balance in a future update.

Make your music collection look pretty

Hey face it not everyone has the time to download nice album art for every single album you own. Its too time consuming to do such a thing (*cough*not that I have done such a thing). Well to save you some time how about you check out this nice little app called album art aggregator. What it does is collect data based from your ID3 tags to grab the correct album art. Once it downloads the art it places a jpg file in the same folder as the album. The name of the file could be changed so you can name it to something like folder.jpg. Which is what I prefer because it plays nice with Windows and XBMC so you can see all that pretty art. You can customize the program to fit how you organize your music. Some like to have all the albums in one folder others like to have artist and then album, so its up to you. So give it a shot it works very fast even for a large music collection. Windows only sorry link here oh and windows users might need the latest framework.
