iZel allows for hands-free iPhone viewing

Movaic on Tuesday introduced the iZel, a new foldable stand designed to work with the iPhone, iPod touch and other portable devices. It costs $25.

The iZel is a portable stand manufactured from a slip-resistant elastomer material. It’s designed to position the iPhone or iPod touch at an angle to a horizontal surface, as a “digital picture frame.”

The iZel’s arms can be repositioned so you can view the iPhone either in landscape or portrait orientation.

22 top iPhone tips

You can do a lot with the iPhone—surf the Web, send e-mail, listen to music, and (yes) make phone calls—with just a touch of a virtual button. But dig a little deeper, and you can do even more. Now that we’ve had some time to live with the iPhone, we’ve found a few tricks that help us get the most out of it.

Web Surfing

Get a Bigger Keyboard As with any other iPhone function requiring data entry, tapping on Safari’s address bar summons an on-screen keyboard. If you rotate the iPhone horizontally before tapping on the address bar, the Safari window will switch to horizontal mode; then, when you tap on the address bar, the on-screen keyboard will also appear horizontally. More important, it will also be much larger than the standard, vertical keyboard, making data entry a little easier. Unfortunately, Safari is currently the only iPhone application in which this horizontal keyboard appears. (If you want to use the keyboard in its standard vertical orientation, summon it before rotating your iPhone.)

Requiem for a third-party iPhone app

When it comes right down to it, what makes me sad is that my iPhone is actually, in many ways, less useful today than it was yesterday. And no, before you ask, that’s not because my iPhone was among the many that have been “bricked” because I unlocked it with third-party software. But what I did have on my iPhone was a handful of third-party applications that are now pining for the fjords after iPhone update 1.1.1.

This is perhaps how the last of the dinosaurs felt. Thursday morning, there were dozens of wild new programs being developed for the iPhone; on Friday, while those programs are not necessarily dead, their future certainly looks as bleak as if the world was blanketed in a thick heaping coat of volcanic ash.

iPhone gets VoIP tryout

The British are bringing VOIP to your iPhone.

In a demonstration at this year’s DEMOfall07, British VoIP provider Truphone showed conventioneers how to use the iPhone’s built-in Wi-Fi capability to make calls over Truphone’s VoIP network. Truphone representatives demonstrated how a call can be initiated from a handset and then routed to Truphone’s server via Wi-Fi.

Truphone spokesman Tim Donnelly Smith emphasized that the event at DEMOfall07 was only a demonstration and was not intended to be a commercial launch. He also said that the program is a native application that is installed through third-party application installers, and does not require cracking the iPhone’s SIM card. This is significant in the wake of Apple’s declaration earlier this week that “many of the unauthorized iPhone unlocking programs available on the Internet” could render the device “permanently inoperable when a future Apple-supplied iPhone software update is installed.” Several iPhone users have reported that installing Apple’s iPhone 1.1.1 update rendered their unlocked iPhones useless.

Bugs & Fixes: The elusive iPhone Error 1603

There may come a time when your iPhone is so uncooperative—it’s crashing constantly or freezing and you have to press Sleep/Wake and Home for several seconds to bring it back to life—that it needs to be restored. Or you may choose to restore your iPhone when you’ve hacked your phone and then wish to install the latest Apple iPhone update.

There’s the very unlikely possibility that during that restore attempt you’ll see this error message: “The iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error occurred. Error 1603.”
