Opera Browser Not Allowed in iPhone App Store

I've always been amazed at how Apple can simultaneously be so in tune in setting new boundaries for computing while simultaneously not "getting it" at all.

Technically, they specified in the SDK that no one else could mount a separate javascript engine.

It's not the alternative browser, it's the engines underneath.

I listen to a lot of indy/college radio, and the DJs are bad about identifying song and artist. I can launch the app, and it takes about 10 seconds for the iPhone to tell me the info on the song.

I can't tell you how many times I hear songs out in public or on the TV or in a move, and I want to know who the song is by. Now I can use Shazam to find out. Very freaking cool.

Wow, that sounds great.

Some bastard found it and knew what to do with it.

If you had sprint, they have a GPS locator you can enable that will show you where the phone is when it is on.

If they could somehow make it so that Shazam could deal with simple melodies, I'd almost buy an iPhone just for that. I hate having songs stuck in my head and not being able to figure out what they are. If I could just hum the melody and it would tell me what the song was, that would be the coolest thing. Ever.

Yes, but does it work? Is it accurate?

No clue. I'll have to dig for my microphone to test it out. If any others are interested, you can use your computer to play with it on their site:

From what I heard, you have to be able to sign the song decently for it to work.

After much research playing Cranium and being subjected to the "humdinger" offerings of both opponents and teammates, I have little faith in the majority of Americans to carry a tune.

I went ahead and bought the MLB At Bat 2009. $10 seemed a bit high, but I love this app. You can follow all the games and also listen to them as well. Video replays available soon after it happens. Very nice. If I can't watch it on TV, this is the way to go. :thumb:
