Tech Buzz It's rumored that Apple will soon give access to FM radio receivers in their devices, so people can listen to radio on the iPhones and iPod touches. That's right, FM radio on your mp3 player. Here are 5 other examples of needless antiquated technologies incorporated into new devices.
Like semi-clothed Japanese women? Like looking like an asshole in public? Like blowing on inanimate objects? There's an app for that.
I swear I was just trying to write “yes yes” in response to this text.
When marrying Apple's latest toy with old fashioned arts 'n crafts, you've got yourself one kickass robot mask. Halloween's less than two months away, so get cracking!

The AdMob Metrics report for July, based on the survey of over 1,000 of AdMob's iPhone, iPod touch and Android users, reveals an interesting statistic: iPhone and iPod Touch users are more likely to purchase paid applications from the iPhone App Store than Android users.
Ever wonder what an iPhone unboxing would look like if it was made by a speed addict? Wonder no more. Either he just ran a marathon or he's REALLY excited about this iPhone. Or he's on meth.
I'm not sure what these means for the future of humanity, but I know it's not a good sign.
All the unbridled violence of a murderous rampage, packaged in the convenience of the iPhone.
An iPhone loyalist is so fed up with Apple that he takes his iPhone 3GS to the shooting range and literally kills it. Set to a dramatic Arcade Fire song. I wonder if this guy is capable of having compassionate long-term relationships.

iPhone Soap. It's Soap that is your phone. Watch it rub away into nothingness as it gets wet. Cleanse your nethers with it. It's the got the Palm Soap beat, but Google Android Soap is easier to use and lest restrictive.

In “How I Learned To Quit The iPhone And Love Google Voice” Michael Arrington describes how he has made good on his promises to quit the iPhone and ATT and port everything over to Google voice. A Chronicle of Liberation from our Techno Corporate Opressors. “A week ago I was an unhappy AT&T iPhone customer. I couldn’t get cell phone reception here at my house and so I was always missing important calls. Today I’m a happy Google Voice customer.”
New phone technology will make it possible for you to “scan” someone and see what their tastes and interests are without every having to actually talk to them.

Round up of iPhone apps with smooth interfaces.
Some hax0r is running Windows 95 on his iPhone using Parallels. This should come in handy, especially since I'm really anxious to surf the net with a Prodigy browser, log into my old BBS hangout, and listen to Siamese Dream just like the old days.

Emoji Icons are a rather extensive set of icons (Emoji being the Japanese word for what we call emoticons or smilies) that are common in Japanese text messaging and web sites and are essentially have been standardized in Japan. They are available on the iPhone and are very fun to use, but it takes a bit of trickery to get them unlocked.
Maybe it's a little egotistical, but this guy replaced all his normal iPhone app icons with pictures of himself acting them out instead.
Tech Buzz Bill Nye explains how the iPhone 3Gs' oleophobic (oil-resistant and fingerprint-proof) screen works. Bill Nye is still adorable in his little bowtie.
How to tell when there's an iPhone thief around. Amanda needs to get this as a tattoo.
