EyeTV app for iPhone released {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Sep 30th 2009 2:18PM I'm sorry to say that "This channel is currently not available" is practically burned into my iPhone's screen - it works with live TV about 20% of the time.
Opened a support ticket @ El Gato and they quoted me a 2-3 day wait for support. So...we'll see by the end of the week, I hope.
Live Traffic comes to Mobile Navigator {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Sep 16th 2009 6:36PM According to Walt Mossberg: "When the call is over, the apps will automatically resume and continue your route."
As for official background processes, Apple's been pretty consistent in their "No" position.
Jailbreak your phone and it won't be a problem - the applicable program is even called "Backgrounder". And it's free.
Live Traffic comes to Mobile Navigator {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Sep 16th 2009 6:13PM You won't regret it - having tried both, Navigon is just plain better. The only area that Tom-Tom excels in is visual appeal (I like their color scheme much better).
But the Navigon feature set blows Tom-Tom out of the water. Look at their respective ratings in the App Store - Navigon is *killing* Tom-Tom. TTS (and now traffic) are must-haves - and Tom-Tom doesn't have either.
Navigon FTW.

TUAW Bookshelf: Inside Secrets to an iPhone App {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
May 12th 2009 5:40PM Sounds intriguing...but it's priced about $4.00 more than I'm willing to pay.
Particularly for something without a preview .
SlingPlayer Mobile for iPhone. What's the deal? {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Apr 21st 2009 11:33AM "I don't know why OrbLive is hardly mentioned in these discussions..."
Maybe because OrbLive STILL doesn't have a Mac client - and you're reading the most prominent Apple blog around?
That's my best guess.
SlingPlayer Mobile for iPhone. What's the deal? {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Apr 21st 2009 11:28AM I have to agree - their unmitigated greed shouldn't be rewarded.
It REALLY sucks that they're forcing an unnecessary hardware upgrade just to squeeze more $$$ out of loyal customers. The fact that we all know the beta version DIDN'T require a new player makes it all the more shady shady shady.
Shame on Slingplayer - may the curse of Palm touch all of you.
Backblaze for Mac officially launches {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Apr 14th 2009 12:19PM Comparison to Dropbox is suspiciously missing too...are you guys still on the "Dropbox isn't a legit company" trip you laid out in the Live Mesh article?
REALLY hope not - that wasn't TUAW's finest hour.
TUAW Review: XRoad G-Map US {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
