As if I wasn’t a bit too dependant on Jott already now they have gone and added a superb new feature- Jott Feeds.

While visiting Jott’s site this morning I stumbled across their newest offering- Jott Feeds- and decided to try it.

Jott Feeds is the next logical step in the evolution of RSS feeds and it pretty much turns the Jott experience upside down.

Instead of speaking to Jott and having its voice recognition service transcribe your words for you or someone else to read, Jott Feeds takes the written word and speaks it back to you on demand.

On one level it is similar to PimpMyNews (which Patrick blogged about a few months back) but with two huge differences.

iLounge has just published its 4th version its Free iPod + iPhone Book.

It is a VERY substancial offering weighing in at over 250 pages.   As the site explains–

…every year, we publish a Book designed to answer all of our readers’ most commonly asked iPod, iPhone, iTunes, and Apple TV questions.

Best of all it is FREE.

Inside you’ll find-

–Over 20 accessory Sneak Peeks. (We really hope to get our hands on a bunch for review!)

–16 sections that cover the full range and lifespan of Apple’s media devices.

–100 pages of iTunes Answers

–A gallery of Next-Generation iPhone concept.

I’ve just started reading through it and it is chock full of great content.

You can’t beat the price and it is a great distraction from the fact that WWDC is now just 5 days away (but who’s counting).

A year after the iPhone was released it is nice to see a large line of accessories finally emerging.

The biggest deal about the book though is that…

Statistic– iPhone Share Down; Prediction- Not for Long

According to a recent IDC survey Apple’s share of the smartphone market dropped significantly in the first quarter of 2008.

During Q1 of 2008 that number dropped to 19.2.

Where did it go?

It is now more than three weeks since the iPhone went MIA. Clearly the wishful thinking that the sudden unavailability of the first generation iPhone meant an imminent release of the next generation device was just that– wishful thinking.  :(

It is still hard to believe that Apple would go for so long without selling an iPhone. It isn’t good for trying to reach 10 million sold.  They have, however, accomplished a number of things through this dry-spell.

1. They have now guaranteed that no recent iPhone purchasers will be within the standard return period.

2. They have built up an even greater demand for the new device and insured that it will get even more media coverage than it otherwise would have.

3. They have clearly learned from last year’s price-drop debacle. The potential number of outraged customers who wake up to find that their brand-spanking new iPhone is OLD technology has been minimized as much as possible. Sure, there will always be people who complain, but at least now the "newest new" iPhones will at least have been used for a month.  Reasonable people are less likely to freak. 

All that being noted, however, there remains a bit of a calendaring issue that is yet to be resolved.

Quick Post-”All The News That’s Fit To…?”

I’m doing a one day roundtrip from New Jersey to Boston to briefly visit someone for an hour or two. The phone may be "the next best thing to being there" as the ad used to say but it remains a distant second. Sometimes you just NEED to see someone in the flesh.

I figured the easiest mode of travel was the train so here I am two hours into the first leg of my journey. My AMTRAK ticket includes coffee and a free paper which is perfect since my schedule rarely permits me to have a quiet Sunday morning to linger over a cup of java and the Times.

So did I get my copy? Nope.

How Much Will You Pay For iPhone Applications and Services?

It was just a couple of weeks ago that Patrick wrote that  dBelement’s application suite had come out of beta and now required a subscription.

Patrick gave a fair assessment of the suite writing,

They all seem decent enough web apps, and I’ve enjoyed MindDojo quite a bit (though it does not seem to have been refreshed in quite a while) - but I wouldn’t rate any of them as outstanding, or able to match up to native apps that provide the same function… There may well be a great market for these - but personally I can’t see paying out nearly $50 over the course of a year for a set of apps that will likely not stand up well against full-blown local apps that will appear in the App Store over coming months.

As a result of Patrick’s post I opened an account and took a five day subscription. I tried out each of the apps that are part of the suite, which includes Reader, MindDojo, Stripr, cityRUNNR and Noter. That was on a Sunday. The following day Patrick shared his assessment during our JustAnotheriPhoneChat web-cast. He was once again fair and even-handed. When I chimed in I was less so, commenting that Patrick’s post had prompted me to sign up for a 5 day trial but one day was more than enough. Thanks but no thanks.

Now I would not attribute all of it to Patrick’s post but late last night I received an email from dBelement…
