iPhone Vista Perfection theme rocks

May 18th, 2008 by Gadgetboy | 1 Comment | Filed in Electronics, Mobile Phones, Mobile gadgets

iPhone Vista Perfection theme This is a tricky one. I’m sure many of the iPhone owners won’t even consider getting something with "Vista" word on their beloved device, like ever. However, I must say they should consider this beautiful theme…

VistaPerfection is a Summerboard compatible theme, created by Spec Works. Features include over 90 icons, boot and restore images, sliders and vista login/logoff (unlock/lock). The screenshot on the left is there to help you realize just how cool this is. Yeah, you may hate the Windows logo and I can understand that, but the icons are gorgeous.

The problem, though, at least for those interested to try out the theme, is that at the moment it isn’t available via Installer.app. Rather, you’ll have to manually go through series of steps in order to make your iPhone feel the power of Vista (start hating me here, please). If you’re that confident in your abilities to do so, or just want to give it shot, hop over to ModMyiPhone forums for detailed instructions. Good luck!

As much as we would loath typing on that touch-sensitive, rigid keyboard, we’re definitely geek-smitten by this ultra-thin, Amoled laptop concept from Samsung SDI — Sammy’s display division. 12.1-inches and 1,280 x 768 resolution with infinite contrast? We’ll take two… just as soon as someone can explain the extra panel around back. With Samsung projecting 14- to 15.4-inch OLED laptops in 2009 , this might come sooner than you think.

Yes — they’re at it again. Please for the love of all that is sacred, let somebody buy something… quick . From the horse’s mouth;

"In light of developments since the withdrawal of the Microsoft proposal to acquire Yahoo! Inc., Microsoft announced that it is continuing to explore and pursue its alternatives to improve and expand its online services and advertising business. Microsoft is considering and has raised with Yahoo! an alternative that would involve a transaction with Yahoo! but not an acquisition of all of Yahoo!"
