Enabling visitors at MWL2010 to keep up-to-date with real-time feeds, this new app also provides a wealth of practical information on exhibitors and itineraries. With augmented reality geotagging offering detailed information on the best places to grab post-exhibition dinner, drinks and hotels, this iPhone app looks a surefire winner.

Making use of the iPhone camera, and combining image recognition with augmented reality, the revolutionary MWL2010 iPhone app is packed with the latest digital technology. The app’s image recognition function enables visitors to source exhibitors’ Twitter feeds, websites and contact numbers, simply by pointing their iPhone at the exhibitor’s logos.

Augmented reality geotagging comes courtesy of The Hedonists’ Guide, and enables the user to locate local restaurants, bars, clubs and hotels, co-ordinated by the iPhone’s internal GPS to coordinate where the user is in relation to the local amenities. General data is allso on offer to keep the user updated on general show information, Twitter feeds, itineraries, schedules and keynote presentations.

“This app will arm MWL2010 visitors with real-time knowledge of everything going on at Marketing Week Live,” said Mark Choueke Editor of Marketing Week, “and provide them with a fantastically interactive exhibition experience during the two days. Such apps will change the landscape of future exhibitions and we at Marketing Week are delighted to be leading from the front.”

The Apple iPhone OS 2.1 is also expected to include new GPS functionality as well as internet radio support, but it is the presence of a simple function – pioneered by Apple back in their formative years – that is likely to bring more users to the device.

Selling the iPhone 3G as a productivity tool and then missing out the ability to cut, copy or paste text or mail addresses is about as useless as selling a TV without a screen.  The fact that the device got through QA testing without anyone raising alarm bells is tantamount to confirmation that the iPhone 3G was rushed through production.

Now, has anyone at Apple got any plans to add a video camera?

$1000!

And yet, it’s not like it wasn’t obvious.  The item description reads:

“The red icon on your iPhone or iPod Touch always reminds you (and others when you show it to them) that you were rich enough to afford this. It’s a work of art with no hidden function at all.”

Although not breaching any regulations, the item was pulled – but not after 8 buyers lined the pockets of creator XX, who was puzzled as to why the item was removed.

“I have no idea why they did it and am not aware of any violation of the rules to sell software on the App Store”

He has a point.  Especially with those who forked out for it opining bitterly.

“I saw this app with a few friends and we jokingly clicked ‘buy’ thinking it was a joke, to see what would happen.”

Hey dude, why not stick your hands in a mains terminal and “see what happens”…?

Furthermore, there is still the opportunity to purchase from Carphone Warehouse, meaning ultimately that the iPhone 3G shortage can pretty much be considered over.

Here’s the list…

It’s all getting a bit beyond a joke now… for personal use, I’ve finally made a decision on my mobile phone future and it’s the going to be a superior WM 6.1 device.

Why?

Simple – the Apple iPhone 3G doesn’t have a video camera, comes with an insulting 2mp static camera… and I can’t use it as a modem, which frankly is unacceptable.

Plus with a new mobile browser now available on WinMo devices, the slickness that Apple’s most wanted product yet in the UK is just a gadget too far…

It’s Saturday, so move quickly!

What a sham.

A quick visit to the O2 users forum reveals a host of issues, missing orders, failed orders resulting in a phone… the list goes on.

It is one almighty cock-up, of the kind that really shouldn’t be seen in the early 21st century, and certainly not orchestrated by a company as high profile as O2.

This is the mobile phone equivalent of Heathrow Terminal 5.

I’ve been in touch daily since my initial online order went down with the paltry O2 e-commerce solution on Monday, and continue to await a suitable resolution.

Existing iPhone users meanwhile have been dealt a blow by Apple stores, who are selling only new handsets to new customers. A firmware upgrade is available to original iPhone users, but these don’t give 100% iPhone 3G functionality.

This is of course long, long overdue and something that the device should have had as standard.

After months of speculation, it is a good bet that this finally confirms the 3G compatibility of the next iPhone – and with the device currently unavailable in the UK, it gives us something to look forward to!

Looks like they’re finally getting the mobile market – perhaps they’ll do away with demanding money for the device when entering into a contract with a network next?

For instance everyone seems certain it will be a 3G device.

Some sources say it will be thicker, yet elsewhere consensus is that it will be thinner, and made from plastic.

No doubt US users will get first dibs, so when it makes its way over to the UK there will be no one left under any illusion as to whether GPS is available.

But I think where Apple will strike gold is with gaming.  From zdnet:

The only thing for sure about the iPhone in the summer and fall is that this mobile platform will be a hot gaming machine. This was clear from vendor reaction at the announcement of iPhone SDK and later.

 

At the SDK launch event, several game developers said they were committed to the platform, including Electronic Arts, which will release Spore in Sept., and Sega, which showed a version of Super Monkey Ball for the iPhone. According to reports, both companies have more iPhone games in the pipeline.

The touch interface is perfect for gaming, and I think it is safe to say that Apple have a DS beater on their hands.

Of course they might be opening the device up for game development, but do Apple really know the full potential of the device?
