iskin solo – not quite what I want :-(

When I purchased my new 3gs I wanted to protect it right out of the box. So I opted for a red iskin solo because it wa the thinnest case icoukd find at the apple store

I have been a long time fan of zagg skins because I like the naked iPhone size and feel… But the skin on the back of my white iPhone began looking dingy and discolored. And the corners began picking up lint…

After using the iskin for a week, I am not too impressed.

I had to remove it the iskin in order to dock it to my external speakers when I was the beach… Not cool

I like how it covers the bezel, but it looks like the bottom edge is already getting stretched out.

I have ordered a really cool looking metallic case from
More- thing.com

Update – just got the new case. Love It!

It it really rad

Only complaint is that it doesn’t cover the bezel completely… Not a big deal though

Also – ditched the mirror file that came with the iskin

Now I rocking the anti glare from power support

Love it!

Very pleased with this setup

You should try it!

my new iPhone 3GS

The photo is a screenshot of the new video feature of the 3gs.

This is the main reason why I HAD to have the new iPhone

Videos come put surprisingly clear at 640 x 480.

You can upload straight to YouTube

I was really surpised at the sound quality on the video. It is superior to any digital camera video audio

Anyway, I will continue to update this post as I discover new features and uses.

Headphone Showdown – Surprising Results

So my main Bose On Ear headphone broke

Big problem because I wear them like 6 hours a day for increased focus and less interruptions.

So I went to best buy and picked up a pair of beats by dre ($325)

After being used to the comfort of my Bose… apparently I was spoiled.

Although the sound was great.

Better Lows and louder at a lower volume settings… (the sound was comparable to my Bose On ears.

So I ordered a pair of Bose quiet comfort 3 in hopes that they would be superior to my old Bose.

The qc3s get 2 thumbs down to me because you cannot listen to music unless the noise cancelling is turned on.

This means that if your battery dies… You are screwed!

So… I have to “worry” about keeping a battery charged!!!

No way dude

Not tiki friendly. Too much stress.

So the surprising winner for me right now….

My old Bose on-ears that you can buy at Target do like $180
