A quick look a the next iPhone...

Thank this guy. Gray Powell, who is a software engineer for Apple, was recently celebrating his birthday in a Redwood City bar when he left behind a next gen iPhone prototype, which he had been testing. Tech blog Gizmodo got their hands on the phone and posted about it. Sadly, they weren't able to actually see it in action before Apple bricked it and asked for it back. Here is a picture of the phone as well as a list of some changes coming to the 4th iPhone, according to Gizmodo:

What's new:
• Front-facing video chat camera

• Improved regular back-camera (the lens is quite noticeably larger than the iPhone 3GS)

• Camera flash

• Micro-SIM instead of standard SIM (like the iPad)
• Improved display. It's unclear if it's the 960x640 display thrown around before—it certainly looks like it, with the "Connect to iTunes" screen displaying much higher resolution than on a 3GS.

• What looks to be a secondary mic for noise cancellation, at the top,
next to the headphone jack • Split buttons for volume
• Power, mute, and volume buttons are all metallic

What's changed:

• The back is entirely flat, made of either glass (more likely) or ceramic or shiny plastic in order for the cell signal to poke through. Tapping on the back makes a more hollow and higher pitched sound compared to tapping on the glass on the front/screen, but that could just be the orientation of components inside making for a different sound

• An aluminum border going completely around the outside

• Slightly smaller screen than the 3GS (but seemingly higher resolution)
• Everything is more squared off
• 3 grams heavier

• 16% Larger battery

• Internals components are shrunken, miniaturized and reduced to make room for the larger battery

Post Fight, Fight!

After Jake Shield's 4 to 1 upset of Dan "Right-hand" Henderson, Jason Mayhem Miller, who you may remember from Mtv's ultimately entertaining but initially annoying Bully Beatdown show, decided that he would spoil the party, and yes. A Beatdown ensued...

Young Artists For Haiti: Wavin' Flag: K'naan w/ Drake, Kardinal, ...Avril Lavigne??

Full Post for Info
"K’naan’s “Wavin’ Flag” is one of the standout tracks from his Troubadour album and has become something of a phenomenon thanks to its timely message of strength and solidarity. Now famed producer Bob Ezrin has brought together top Canadian performers for Young Artists for Haiti, and the group’s rendition of the song takes it to new heights. Performers include K’naan, Nikki Yanofsky, Jim Cuddy, Emily Haines, Hedley, The Arkells, Drake, Justin Bieber, Avril Lavigne, Jully Black, Sam Roberts, Kardinal Offishall, and more.

Apple, the labels, and the artists are donating their share of the proceeds to the Free The Children, World Vision, and War Child charities." -2DopeBoyz

How To Make It In America

Trailer: How to Make It in America - A First Look from DP on Vimeo.



Here is a trailer for the new HBO show How To Make It In America. It doesn't premiere until Sunday, but HBO is letting viewers watch the premiere episode for free on YouTube. The show is produced by the guys who brought you Entourage (Marky Mark Wahlberg). It's about two guys trying to make it in the NY fashion industry, stars Bryan Greenberg and Victor Rasuk, and features Scott "KiD CuDi" Mescudi in a supporting role. Normally, I'd post the whole episode here, but YouTube has disabled embedding at the request of HBO, so you can check it out here. See the full post...
