Top 5 Uses of a Gorilla Mobile 3G/3GS

November 23, 2009 in Featured, Hardware by David John

A few months ago I reviewed the amazing Joby Gorillapod SLR that I now use literally full time for macro photography (a few examples). This week I have been playing with the Gorillmobile 3G/3GS based on the same principle but with the latest Apple iPhone 3G and 3Gs models in mind. Phone cameras have gone from [...]

New : Apple iTunes Remote

New : Apple iTunes Remote

November 5, 2009 in Hardware by David John

Despite being informed of a delay I am happy to report that Apple’s new iTunes remote  safely arrived at TotalApps Towers today.

The new remote doesn’t bring any additional [...]

November 2, 2009 in Hardware by David John

Well I finally managed to get my hands on Apple’s new Magic Mouse. Despite the mouse being no longer ‘mighty’ the new device certainly surpasses my expectations.

The Perfect Joby for Photography

October 20, 2009 in Hardware by David John

I originally wrote this review for another website but am sure the TotalApps photography group will enjoy my look at the Joby Gorillapod SLR. It is difficult to miss the boom in the consumer digital SLR market, in additional to the iPhone these cameras currently dominate flickr (see the graphs). Recent releases boast 15 megapixel [...]
