The time has come to refresh my blog and update a few things. Consequently, my rss feed is changing. Please update your subscription if you keep tabs of the blog using a rss reader. The new feed address is http://www.jamesonabart.com/blog/?feed=rss2.

Also, all the old content is still here but the addresses have changed. So, you’ll have to update your bookmarks for individual posts.

iConnect Concept for iPhone

// November 4th, 2009 // 1 Comment » // Uncategorized

Here’s my creative energy burst at a concept for new capabilities within the iPhone platform.

iConnect transforms your iPhone into a wireless access point, extending your 3G broadband connectivity to laptops and other devices. This solution goes far beyond simple tethering capabilities. With iConnect, your iPhone becomes a 3G/WiFi router that allows you to deploy a personal wi-fi network with coverage of 30-35 feet utilizing 802.11 b/g/n. You’ll be able to extend your iPhone’s 3G broadband access to multiple devices at once for mobile internet connectivity.
