  • Palm phones
  • windows mobile based phones
  • blackberry phones
  • symbian phones (both nokia and Samsung based symbian phones)

The most precious thing you don’t want to lose from your phone is all your contacts; maybe photos and videos as well. Doing a backup every month is necessary.

iTune 9 Released & iPod Nano with Built-in Video Camera

by Rocky on September 10, 2009

in Gadgets

itune 9

Apple has released new version of iTune 9, which comes with several great new features; my favorite is the home sharing feature:

  • Home sharing. iTunes makes it easier to share music, movies, TV shows, and more. With Home Sharing, you can browse the iTunes libraries of up to five authorized computers in your house, import what you like, and automatically add new purchases made on any of the computers to your own library.

I have tried this feature; now, everyone in the apartment share one another’s music via iTune. Cool!

The new iPod nano. iPod nano now has a built-in video camera that lets you record fun as it happens. Then share it with friends on the Internet. It’s the video camera that’s small enough to take with you everywhere.

Fifteen fun video effects let you add a little Hollywood to your video. Just scroll through, choose the effect you want — such as film grain or motion blur — and start recording. When you’re done, sync iPod nano to your computer and iPhoto (or your favorite photo software) opens. Then email your miniblockbuster or post on YouTube or Facebook.
