Summary of iPhone Hacks: Pushing the iPhone and iPod Touch Beyond Their Limits (Hacks)
The product approach for iPhone and iPod Touch is right out of the Apple playbook: control the software, control the hardware, and use the style and minimalist design that made iPod and iMac so appealing. But it's an open hardware world today, and we want more from these devices. iPhone Hacks gives you exactly that: new ways to get more out of an iPhone or iPod Touch in spite of Apple's close-to-the-vest constraints.With iPhone Hacks, you can make your iPhone or iPod Touch do everything and anything you'd expect of a mobile converged device. Learn all the tips and techniques to unleash little-known features, find (and create!) great web-based applications for it, and unshackle it to run everything from network utilities to video game emulators -- all without impairing the toaster-like simplicity of this Apple appliance.
This book offers you hacks to:
- Watch DVDs, sync with multiple computers, convert Videos to mobile-ready formats, view RSS feeds, and more
- Develop native apps for the iPhone and iPod Touch, use apps created by others, and get web-based apps to fit iPhone's screen
- Check email, use IRC, and attend conference calls and videoconferences
- Play Sudoku, Nintendo, Zork, Doom, and other games
- Control your desktop or laptop from your iPhone or iPod Touch
- Tether your computer's web browser to the wireless network
- Convert Mac OS X widgets to iPhone and iPod Touch applications, and upgrade from the default calculator to something useful
- Troubleshoot and restore your device, install third-party apps, and backup its files
- Connect to a Bluetooth headset, or listen to your music from car speakers
- Customize the ringtones, system sounds, icons, and more
