  • Submit Tips/News to TAB…win some free stuff!

    The Apple Blog wouldn’t exist in any form if we didn’t have all our fantastic readers. We’d now like to give back in a new way by giving away free stuff each month!

    We obviously can’t know about every single thing going on in the world of Apple and that’s where sending in tips to us really helps.

    To reward for that we’re going to start randomly giving away a $25 gift certificate each month to one person who submits a tip or piece of news that we publish.

    Submitting a tip is super easy. Just click on this link or the button in the sidebar that says “Submit Tips & News to TAB”. Easy as that!

  • iPhone Headphone Adapter Roundup

    iPhone users quickly found out that the headphone jack on the iPhone is recessed several millimeters and standard headphones won’t fit in the jack.

    Belkin Adapter

    Belkin iPhone Headphone Adapter The first company to release an adapter was Belkin, but the adapter is rigid, ugly and looks like a 3″ antennae sticking out of the top of your iPhone. The adapter sells for $10.95, but is getting bad reviews, and I’d recommend looking into other options below.

    Griffin Adapter

    Griffin iPhone Headphone Adapter The Griffin adapter looks better, as it’s not rigid and doesn’t pose the risk of breaking your headphone adapter by bumping into a wall or door. Still, it’s bulky and very noticeable and is not even available yet.

    RadTech Adapter

    ProCable iPhone Headphone Adapter The best looking adapter available now is the RadTech Audio Extension Cable. Available in two lengths, 3″ and 4″, this adapter is as sleek as you could expect and is the least expensive, at only $7.95. I highly recommend this adapter, and have bought one for my iPhone.

    Shure Adapter

    Shure iPhone Headphone Adapter The Shure adapter has a longer cable and includes an inline microphone, so you can still use the phone function while listening to standard headphones. At $39.95, it is the most expensive adapter. I don’t think an inline microphone is worth an extra $30. I want an adapter to use old-style over the ear headphones to get superior sound quality. If I get a call, I’ll unplug them and put the phone to my ear.

    Apple Adapter

    Apple iPhone TTY Adapter There are more choices than previously, but I am still surprised no one has released a simple, elegant adapter that is as minimalistic as possible. While I was browsing the iPhone Cables cateogry at the Apple Store, I couldn’t help but notice the TTY Adapter by Apple. It’s small and sleek, just like you would expect from Apple. I wonder, if a TTY adapter can be made this small why can’t they a headphone adapter?

  • Gyminee - Track workouts & weight loss on your iPhone

    Gyminee

    The iPhone is consistently being used in other areas besides simple phone calling and messaging.

    Web-based health and fitness tracking website, Gyminee, has adapted their web application’s interface to work perfectly with the iPhone.

    Now when you go to the gym you can take your iPhone with you to help keep track of your work out along with some other snazzy features:

    • Exercise demonstration - Watch short videos that cover how to do certain excercises
    • Weigh-ins - Quickly enter your weight for the application to track
    • Cardio Progress - Record details such as distance, time, and calories burned
    • Excercise Library - If you’re getting bored with the same exercises, fire up the Exercise Library to access a slew of new things to try out

    Right now Gyminee is in a private beta but is constantly adding new users and will be opening up for the public soon.

    Andy from Gyminee was kind enough to give me 10 30 invites to hand out to folks, so if you would like an invite in to the private beta just let me know in the comments area. The first 10 30 people to respond that they want one will get one.

    UPDATE: Andy from Gyminee is hooking us up even more. We now have a total of 30 invites to hand out. :)

    UPDATE: I’m now officially out of invites. Each person that got one of the invites will also have their own invites to give out (I think they’ll have 5 or 10)…so if you got an invite feel free to post in the comments about sending more to others here.
