Cheap iPod/iPhone Backup Battery

As we all know, there are alot of very good backup batteries such as the Richard Solo or the Dexim Bluepack.

But what are wrong with these Batteries? They are way too expensive!

But I have figured out how to solve this problem. Well you see I've been searching for days for a cheap good iPod backup battery but finally I've found something.

It's called the Monoprice Backup Battery Pack.


Specs:

• 2200 mAH (3.5 hours to charge)
• Doesn't break easily/very durable
• Made for all iPods/iPhones (except the iPod Shuffle)

Cons:

• Blocks headphone jack
• Doesn't lock on (might fall off if it wiggles too much)
• Doesn't work for the shuffle

Whats so good about this backup battery?

Well it's only $14, it has more capacity of battery than the Richard Solo, and it is very durable, meaning it won't break easily at all. I accidentally dropped it a few times and still didn't break after even five drops.

It's really up to you, if you want something really nice with flashlight features get the Richard Solo but if you want something really cheap and awesome at the same time, get the Monoprice. It will save you money and I guaranteed you'll be satisfied.

iPhone OS 4.0 Beta 4 Reveals Support for Leaked Devices

Yesterday, developers received iPhone OS 4.0 Beta 4. In the code of the Software Development Kit (SDK), there are references to "AVCaptureFlashMode."

The code for flash control also appears for the new iPad 2nd Generation and iPod touch 4th Generation. Suggesting that when updates for both come out, they will have cameras accompanied by LED flash.

This coding is almost definitive proof that the prototypes that were somehow leaked of the new iPhone and iPod touch 4th Generation are legitimate.
The new iPhone 4th Generation is expected to be revealed by Apple at WWDC 2010 on June 7.

iPod touch with Camera Leaked, Possible 4th Gen?

Back in September, Steve Jobs explained why the iPod touch 3rd Generation did not come with a camera. Now, Tinh Tế (the people who showed another iPhone 4G) has acquired a new prototype of an iPod touch.

The device is running in diagnostic mode with a functioning camera. The camera shown has a 2.0 megapixel camera but still features the same curved back style as the second and third generation iPod touch.
