joined the iphone alliance

So my Lg Viewty has been full of problems as of late and it just got to the point where it was beyond a joke. Sad? no.. finally i could get an iphone that id been oogling over for weeks....ok maybe months. So hello free upgrade thanks to my buddies at vodafone! :) & home i went with my brand new love, my 16GB iphone 3GS. Only had just come into the store that morning, so i snapped it up, no waiting for me. hahah worldwide shortage.. pfft! not for the mandee. Ok ok. so I'm a little stoked about it

So as with everything i love to personalise it. Make it me. So i got a gorgeous case for it, so its precious smooth and shinyness. Check it out here.
Next step was setting it up how i want it and hitting the app store, getting some wallpapers and putting on my own music.

So here's some things ive learnt already about my iphone.

1. They are awesome, so intelligent and do more than you expect. Ooozes intelligence.
2. The Free apps are such a tease, give u a little bit and then kick you out unless you want to fork out for premium . Saying that though there are some great ones out there. Check out my favs:


3. The iphone is all about syncing with itunes, for everything from music to groove to, ring tones, photos and more. Of course Apple being Apple loves to restrict who's content you use, not allowing you to make mp3's into ring tones unless they are purchased from the itunes store. But of course, technology being ever changing and humans being persistent there is a way around this.
Got some songs you love.. want them on your iphone as a ringtone. Here's how:
  • Open your favourite mp3 intunes, right click and select 'Create AAC version'
  • Next open up your itunes music folder usually in your My music folder, and select the file and rename the extension to ".m4r".
  • Windows will ask if you really want to do this, select yes and it now in the ringtone format recognised by apple.
  • Drag the file back into itunes and tada! it should appear in the ringtones tab. Sync your iphone and ta da there is your new hot ringtone!!
4. Want to put some custom wallpapers on there? www.zedge.net has got some awesome free ones. Make sure that when your syncing your iphone, select the folder you have your custom wallpapers in, and they'll be sent to your iphone.
