This is my last post for the next three weeks. The journey goes from St.Moritz via Passau to Wien. It’s a bicycle trip so I’ve packed all my things on my bike and tomorrow morning the journey starts. Have a nice time and I will be back soon.
P.S. I’ll answer to all your mails when I’m back. So please be patient!

My newest gadget is called “Solio Hybrid 1000″. It’s a solar powered Accu. So the sunn charges the accu in miy Solio H1000 and afterwards i can charge my iPhone, iPod, Mobile Phone and a lot more. It comes with a USB -, a USB-Mini - and a Nokia adapter so you can charge nearly every device. I bought this solar charger for our bicycle tour from St.Moritz to Wien. I hope it keeps my iPhone “alive” for three weeks.
Till now I have just charged my iPhone once with the it. But it worked great. The only critic point is the way you can check the charge status. The LED blinks 1-5x depending on the charge. I think it couldn’t be too hard to put 5 LED’s in it and show the status like the Apple notebook accu’s do it. For more info see the solio.com webpage.
For every solar power fan it’s a super gadget! Although it’s a bit expensive to import it from USA!

The Update
Lets start with the update of iPhoneNotes. I released version 0.8 of iPhoneNotes. This version works now with firmware 2.0 and some bugs with firmware 1.1.2 are fixed too. (I’ve got some bug-reports about that). Now when I was bugfixing iPhoneNotes I was thinking of the future of iPhoneNotes. The best way to keep iPhoneNotes alive would be a complete renew. Something with an alternative Notes application on the iPhone which makes it possible to us it without a jailbreak. And the ability to sync with the notes from Apple Mail. But currently I don’t have the time and the motivation to build such an environment. That means that iPhoneNotes will stay how it is now for the next future.
P.S. probably I can motivate my self to do some work for a future iPhoneNotes application when someone out there takes the initiative for it.
The New Releases
Marks: That is an application for students to manage their credits and marks. (for more see the product page) It will be available in the iPhone App Store for $0.99. Currently it’s “in review” by Apple. So it’s just a matter of time till it is finally available.
MiGhtyDocs: Let’s you view your Google Documents on your iPhone and have them available wherever you are. Even if you haven’t an internet connection. This app is avialable in the iPhone App Store when apple approved it too. It’s only version 0.5 so it has just some basic functions and a lot of possibilities to implement new features in the future. I’m very interested in your feedback for this application. So that I can implement your requirements in future versions! MiGhtyDocs will be available for free. (donations are always welcome)
