Listener Feedback on Question of  2 iPhones /  1 Computer.

This is a solution I developed for my family - it sounds obscure, confusing and a bit involved - but once it is working it has been great for us!  It does have some cons and isn't a perfect solution - but it demos a neat tool Google provides.
 
Software/Configuration I use for the solution:
 
1) Windows Vista Business 64
 
2) MS Office 2003/2007 - Outlook
 
3) GoogleSync Application http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=89955
 
4) Multiple Windows Users - for this example let's say me and my wife - each user has their own iTunes library under their own Windows login, each with their own music, calendar and contacts.  Each user also has their own Outlook profile and calendar established under their windows username/login.
 
5) Each family member has a G-Mail account and a Googlel Calendar that is "shared" with other family members. Sharing these calendars is done right through Google Calendar settings.
 
So far, this is fairly typical of most setups - nothing special - except the addition of the Google Calendar Sync Application.
 
Basically, this method uses Google Calendar as the synching point by and through which Outlook Calendars are shared between users.
 
Flow:
 
On iPhone:
 
User can add items to their Google Calendar by hitting the plus sign when they are viewing their Google calendar.  By adding an item it is instantly added to the Google Calendar on the server side.  The next time the Google Sync runs on the home PC - those items are pulled down and added into the local Outlook Calendar of that user.  Users could also add something directly to the native iPhone calendar - but these items would not be sync'd with the Google Calendar until the phone is plugged into the home PC, sync'd and the Google sync runs again.  The first option is the better way.  By adding the Google Calendar item, this item is then visible on the user's Google Calendar and because the user has shared that calendar with another G-Mail user, say my wife, it immediatly appears on her Google Calendar.  Google even permits "color coding" the calendars, so when I view my Google Calendar my items are blue whereas hers are red.
 
On PC:
 
User can add the item directly into their Outlook Calendar, next time Google Calendar Sync runs, those items are fed up to the Google Calendar, and because they are shared, appear for everyone.  User could obviously also add it directly to Google Calendar from the home PC.  I can also send Outlook Calendar Items from work to my home email address, when I "Accept" them at home in Outlook they are added to my shared Google Calendar via the Google Calendar Sync application. (I happen to have it set to run every 15 minutes.)
 
CONS:
 
You do need seperate Outlook profiles - which requires a PC with more than one user created on it.  It sounds like other listener made have been talking about syncing to just one single Outlook profile on the same computer.  Also, the computer has to be running under the particular user's login at least for a bit each day (in my case the sync time is 15 minutes - so at least that long) in order that at least one sync occurs for items that weren't added to Google Calendar directly.  Since my home PC is always on throughout the day and my wife logs in at least once a day, this is not a problem - but might be for some.  To avoid this, we have trained ourselves to add calendar items to Google Calendar directly, our Outlook calendars on the home PC are then updated the next time we are at the PC and signed in.  We see each other's new additions immediatly.
 
Small warning:  If you use Google Calendar Sync incorrectly at first, you will end up causing a duplicate entry to be created of every calendar item you have.  I had this problem once and it is not for the faint of heart.  I basically had to remove my Outlook database and create a new one.  I then had to re-import all my calendar items from a handy-dandy backup .PST folder I made, of course, PRIOR to trying this.
 
All and all it took some experimentation - but it works GREAT for us now.  Perhaps a bit convoluted for a PodCast "how-to" but with a bit of thought and other perspectives - their may be a way to clean this method up.  Of course, the alternative is to just simply work in Google Calendar (both from the PC and from the iPhone) all of the time and let the sync application make everything move seamlessly over to Outlook so it's available their when you sit down at home.
 
Lastly, alerts become an issue.  Obviously, things in the native iPhone calendar can generate an audible reminder alert.  Google Calendar will not, per se.  However, Google Calendar has added a feature that allows you to have reminder emails sent to you for Google Calendar items, so set your iPhone to fetch every 15 minutes and be sure to set longer reminder periods - all set!  If you don't want to go that far and make things too complicated and if you are patient then - the completion of the circle.... drum roll.... if your Google Calendar items are syncing back to your Outlook and you regularly sync your iPhone on your PC using iTunes, those Google Calendars which ended up in your Outlook then end up sync'd with the native iPhone Calendar resulting in a normal native iPhone reminder!  (If that makes any sense)
 
I don't expect to hear about this long drawn out method on your show - but perhaps there is a take-away with the Google Calendar Sync application.  For us it was setup and forget - it's the setup that takes some thought!
 
Keep up the good work!

The company I work for Wizzard Media has updated their embed Video Player (http://tools.wizzard.tv) to now work with the iPhone. Here is the blurb sent out to producers.

We are pleased to announce that starting today the Wizzard Flash Player is now compatible with the iPhone and iPod Touch.

What does that mean for you? If you embed the Wizzard flash player on your website, anyone who visits your site from an iPhone or iPod Touch will see a big button to click on your video, full-screen, in all it's beautiful h.264 glory. This works for both the single episode player and the show players. This exciting new feature is also fully compatible with our ad insertion technology, so anyone looking to run ads can now reach their iphone and ipod touch audience members.

The good news. You don't have to do anything different or special to get this new functionality. If you are using the Wizzard flash player (http://tools.wizzard.tv ) just login, grab the embed code for your show or an individual episode, paste it on your website and presto! If you are a LibsynPRO user, simply publish your video, and then grab your embed code when you are finished.

The bad news: Due to the fact that we had to make a slight change to the HTML in the embed codes, if you want to add this functionality to your existing web sites' player, you will have to re-embed the player(s) with the new code format. It should only take a few seconds.

This update is currently for video podcasters but we will provide an update for audio podcasters very soon. If you have no idea about the Wizzard Player that is available to all libsyn users, please check it out here: http://tools.wizzard.tv It is totally free for you to use!

If you have any issues, please let us know and we will fix you right up! Enjoy your new and improved Wizzard Media Player!

Team WM

This is great news for Video producers and soon this option will also be available for all Audio Producers using the Wizzard Media player.

Below is a sample of this working in action.  Which you are able to click to watch from your iPhone.  One important thing for producers is that this works with both Single Episodes players and Multi-episode players.  So nothing special is needed on the producers side. Just embed the Wizzard Media Player with the new embed code and you are done. 

I want to thank the Tech guys at Wizzard for helping to support the iPhone Platform - something I care a lot about.

And Yes for all my listeners - this is video of me and my son. I know I don't look anything like you expected. Hence why I do an audio show.

Rob W

You can now update to iTunes 7.7 - check in software updater.

Once it is installed - if you do not see the App Store - change your country to New Zealand to see the app store.

The App store was not showing up yet when I was set to the US.  You can change the country at the bottom of the main page on iTunes.

Rob W

PS - YES!!! I know I messed up on the Caps Lock - it was there in 1.1.4


UPDATE 1:  From Chris in NY - for access from the US Store.

Go to preferences in iTunes on general tab make sure Applications is ticked. Then in itunes select Applications on the left. Then bottom right select get more appliations and you will see US AppStore.

Thanks Chris.

Survey Results on - Are you Getting the new iPhone 3G
Here is the survey data so far for the question on "Are you going to get the  iPhone 3G?"

There were 449 responses which puts it at an accuracy of better than +/- 5%.  Mind you this should be looked at not for the general public - but rather for those interested in the iPhone (YOU - why else would you be reading this). 

But at least based on this data it looks like 50% of current iPhone owners are going to "upgrade" to the iPhone 3G.  And of those currntly iPhone deprived - 64% will be getting the new iPhone (Mind you it is those iPhone deprived and interested in the iPhone - otherwise they would not have found this survey). Either way you slice it this means millions of new iPhone 3G customers very soon (talk about captain obvious).

I will talk about this on the next episode - but long of the short - I talked with 3 different people within the FCC that work on Qualification of cell phones and other devices.  I asked them if a manufacturer would actually need a new FCC qual if they were going from an Edge phone to a 3G phone.  Well we have a split decision - 2 felt that as long as they did not change their baseband frequencies - No they would not.  The third person - who the first two pointed me to as being the better source - said that it would depend on the difference in the phone.  He felt that a simple software update would not need a new qual - but if there were new hardware on the transmission side - even at the same baseband freq's - then yes it would need some sort of qual.

What does this mean?
Well - That most likely Apple will need to get approval from the FCC before introducing the 3G iPhone.  So we should get some warning prior to the official release of the 3G iPhone but then again maybe not. 

Also let me say the People I talked to were very nice and very helpful.

Apps - 0002 - Capture
Title - Capture

Version - 0.1.0-6

Category - Utility

Available from - Installer.app

Review - Nice Screen shoot utility for the iPhone.  Once activated - it places a floating box above the screen that you can move around.  When you have a screen image you want to capture - simply click on "snap" the floating box disappears for a second - when it comes back the screen shot has been taken and is placed in your Camera roll.  Works very well with v. 1.1.4.  The image above was taken with Capture. 

Conclusion - If you are looking for a screen capture program - look no further - this is a really good and clean app.

Category - Game

Available from - Installer.app

Review - The UI is nice and works very well.  It makes moves quickly so no real lag waiting for it to make a move.  The screen is stretched and that does make it look odd - not a true square. 

Big problem with the game is that once the computer runs out of moves - even if you still have moves available - it ends the game.  This is a huge bug in the software and needs to be fixed.  Other problem is the game is pretty easy to beat and makes lots of dumb moves. 

Conclusion - best to check out another game until at a min they fix the bug with the game ending early.
