Everyone knows how much I depend on my calendar, and that it was one of the big disappointments moving to the iPhone. I started out with PocketInformant while waiting for Agendus to catch up, and while the new owners seem to be dropping the ball on Agendus, PI hasn’t really done it for me. And then @jjb70 suggested CalenGoo. Since I sync only with Google, it seemed worth the try. For $6.99, it’s a mid price app from iTunes, but still a far cry cheaper than what I used to pay for apps on Palm. It has now taken a place of honor on my application dock. What CalenGoo does that the others don’t...

Another silicone case, this one $28.95 from Proporta. I did a review of Proporta’s SteriTouch silicone case for the iPhone 3G(S) a while back, and Proporta has updated this case for the iPhone 4. Unlike the typical silicone cases which are monochrome, this one is black on the outside and pink on the inside. It’s also offered in black/green and black/grey. A nice ribbed texture on the sides insures your phone will not slip from your grasp. The back has some matching ribbing that gracefully flows from the sides, and a few other nice touches to make sure you’re always in control. The sides...

Some time back, I wrote a review on Proporta’s Shine case for the iPhone 3G/3GS – beautiful girlie case. Now I’m back to look at the new Shine case for the iPhone 4. Updated slightly, the design now has a band to keep the case closed (or open), and is available in three colours: black, red, and blue for $36.95. Proporta sent me a red Shine case to review, and I must say the patent leather looks even better in red than the old Shine case in black. Even better news, it is not the fingerprint magnet that you might expect. As a fashion statement, this truly Shines. The new design with the band...

Proporta has long been one of my favorite companies for cases. Their Shine case for the iPhone is unique and beautiful. I had the opportunity to look at four of their offerings for the iPad, and I must say – they are fabulous. Since I no longer have an iPad, I invited a friend over, and we opened the packages and played dress-up with her iPad. All the cases were packaged the same way, traditional cellophane bag, taped at one end, with a cardboard product band around it, showing the case name. Two of the cases we looked at were simple back shells, and two were leather binder style cases. As you’ll...

Convertcast Episode 48 July 19, 2010 And yes, we can mention "antennagate" since we're going to discuss cases. I did speak to an RF engineer, who suggested the only way to fix the current problem would be to put the antenna back on the inside. Form vs. function. Case offer from Apple - Bumper? Rebate (bumper owners), or 3rd party Apple offering? How many cases do you already have in your possession? How many do you have on order? Screen cover/shield? Parent update!
