Handy Cell Phone Cover Accessories

If you own a cell phone and are worried about the surface of your cell phone’s screen being scratched, a cell phone cover consisting of faux leather or other materials can be obtained via accessory suppliers. In addition to protecting your cell phone’s buttons and screen from becoming worn and scratched, a cover accessory can also be useful for carrying your phone around as you can obtain cases for many phones which clip onto a belt.

Cell Phone Cover Accessories for Screens

In addition to cloth, rubber and other covers which protect your whole cell phone, you can obtain a separate screen cover which is adhesive and will stick easily to your cell phone’s screen. A screen cover which is thin yet durable will allow you to still enjoy crystal clear images and text on your phone without as much risk of scratches which can make it hard to read text messages, emails, and view multimedia content.

Spotlight search, one of the high-profile features introduced with OS 3.0 last month, lets you search contacts, appointments, music, mail, and more without first loading their respective apps.

In other words, it’s a time-saver. In theory.

Confession time: I haven’t touched Spotlight once since installing OS 3.0 on my 3G. On a few occasions I’ve flicked past my apps and landed on the search screen, invariably prompting the same reaction: “Huh. Forgot that was there.”

I have used Mail’s new in-box search, which frequently proves invaluable. But Spotlight strikes me as a backward approach. Maybe it’s me; I’m accustomed to running apps first and looking for data second. That’s how I do things on the desktop, so it feels natural to do likewise on my iPhone. Old dog, old tricks.

What about you? Do you think Spotlight is the greatest addition since copy and paste, or does it sit, forgotten and unused, to the left of your apps? Cast your vote below!

Useful IPhone 3G Accessories

If you own an iPhone 3G, accessories for your cell phone can be ordered online, from protective covers to charger devices and speakers for your device. The touch screen of the iPhone can be operated using your fingers alone, yet this can lead to a build-up of grubby prints, and you can purchase a soft-tipped stylus affordably. You could also purchase and fit a premium screen protector which will protect your iPhone’s screen from grime and scratches.

IPhone 3G Accessories for Charging

While the iPhone 3G has extended battery life, you can quickly use this up watching video media on your iPhone, or playing games which use more of your iPhone’s processing power than simple applications. You can purchase an external battery which plugs into your iPhone’s standard docking port and provides a highly portable recharging solution – you can also obtain a car charger device which will enable you to recharge your iPhone while on the road.

As first outlined at the E3 video game industry trade show in June, Microsoft is readying an update to the dashboard software that runs on Xbox 360 game consoles, as well as the Xbox Live online service.

While it’s not as radical a change as the fall 2008 dashboard update that added avatars and Netflix streaming, there are a lot of improvements to current features, as well as a few new ones. The dashboard update will be available for 360 owners on August 11th, but we were able to download an early version for a test drive.

Included were notable features such as the Avatar Marketplace, for buying (via Microsoft Point micro-transaction) clothing and accessories for your avatar, and the Netflix Party Mode, for watching a streaming Netflix movie along with online friends.

Missing from our early download, however, were the much-anticipated Twitter and Facebook apps, as well as the Games on Demand service for Xbox 360 games (currently only older original Xbox games are available).

Click through to the gallery below for our walkthrough of some of the new Xbox 360 dashboard features.
