I’m not sure if you caught the live financial indicators on the right-hand side of the page, but the Rand is absolutely KILLING it against the US Dollar. At the current rate, I’m renting movies from the US iTunes store at R26 a shot – and some of them haven’t even hit the circuit here in SA. Let me show you how.
I’ll be honest, it HAS been on my mind. I mean, everyone goes on about battery-life and camera quality and storage space and keyboard use and reception, when everyone is actually, consciously skirting around the real issue at hand – how do they handle on a braai grid? Which one dies first? What happens after that? All revealed after the jump!

There has been so much press about the new iPhone 4 and its various pros and cons, that I doubt I need to educate you about them. The point is that people who have had the last two or three iPhones don’t give a toss about anything but owning the new one. And that includes […]
There are a lot of iPhone apps out there and, as much as I would like to focus on all of them, my attention has been fully diverted to the new kid on the my block, the iPad. By the way, did I tell you that I subscribed to 12 issues of Wallpaper magazine for […]
I’ll be honest, I’m settling into the iPad quite nicely and starting to incorporate it into everyday life. I genuinely find typing on it (in portrait) an absolutely pleasure, typing at virtually the same speed as I do on a normal keyboard. Look at me, being all detailed and informative, like I’m not on my […]
You can only imagine the zone you can get into, listening to some vinyl, with a joint in one hand and your new iPad in the other – on the day that Google Maps goes live with “Google Street View” for Cape Town. My God, I have traipsed every square inch of this city, all […]

My beautiful babies, Daddy has snuck out of town for a month. I know I should have told you properly before I left, but if I had done that, you wouldn’t have let me leave. Everyone knows that an “Eagle Claw,” when performed by a model, is infinitely stronger than a Pit-Bull’s lock jaw. I […]
It’s ironic that Cokey Falkow and I were talking about the iPad during Friday’s 2oceansvibe Radio Show; and then, not 48 hours later, a 2oceansviber sent the first documented picture of 2oceansvibe being read on the iPad – with Cokey Falkow appearing in the top article! Congratulations Deán Stassen! 2oceansvibe.com is VERY at home on […]

You’re not going to believe this, but someone who works for Apple apparently left the new unreleased iPhone 4G in a bar. The device made it’s way to our favourite tech geek website, Gizmodo, who broke it down for us. They have put together stacks of pics and videos of the beautiful little beast. […]

By now you will be well aware of the fact that I am seldom lured from my salubrious surroundings. Ubiquitous annual jaunts to south of France, LA and the med notwithstanding, tearing myself away from The Safe House and the majesty of Cape Town is not an activity I enter into lightly. Hence a trip […]

It didn’t take long for the first iPad porn site to appear. Now I know you will be able to access the usual porn sites on the iPad, but, without Flash capabilities, some of them might not work. I assume! I mean, I don’t know anything about porn sites, but *ahem* it’s an interesting discussion, […]
Just recently someone asked me why I am so focused on the iPad. “Hahahaha,” I said unto him, “you’re hysterical!” I focus on the iPad because it’s important. I focus on the iPad because there is a new shift in media and technology and delivery, which effects us all. I don’t even need to get […]

I found this tool called Flight Track and I used it to keep an eye on The Muse’s flying progress during her recent trip to and from Dubai and Hong Kong. You load it up and simply input the flight number and date of departure. Then BOOM! : How rad is that!? – It tells […]
A big welcome to the Griffin laptop stand, which raises the book to where I need it – thus improving my posture. And then, just for kicks, try out the wireless (my bru) keyboard and mouse below. Just to further improve your vibe. And that mouse, that’s not a normal mouse. You can swipe your […]
