Spreadsheet – Create Spreadsheets On Your iPhone and iPod Touch

In the flow is now this new application “Spreadsheet” to create Spreadsheets on your Apple iPhone. Ever since Apple has opened the App store for its users there are many applications developed for it. This applications joins the bunch of such applications making the fact true that iPhone is going to be a powerhouse of mobile computing. In case Apple ignored or could not introduce an application for it then a open source or third party developers are coming up with a solution for it. Most of the applications for iPhone were games instead of full featured applications from the store. This was disappointing for the users who expected to gain more utilities and work done on iPhone.

Spreadsheets that can be modifiable is one such application from the App store that really serves the needs of the users who were expecting some processing capabilities on iPhone. However the iphone allowed the users to view the excel and numbers based files ever since it has been launched. Priced at $7.99 this is a excel like application meant for iPhone and enables you to work on spreadsheets and of course a path breaking application. The significant features include cells of multiple types, inclusion of numeric, date, character and other type of data, advanced cell formatting options with support for different font weights like bold, italic and so on.

A wide range of mathematical, trigonometric and statistical functions can be used and you can even export spreadsheet files to other similar applications and send them using mail. The only capability lacking in this application is the import feature which if existed would have been a complete solution and is something you can always expect in its coming up versions. Spreadsheet application is one such thing in a row of applications flooded out for iPhone.

Facebook 2.0 Application for Apple iPhone With New Improvements and Features

Right after the release of Facebook 1.1 version for iPhone they were sure that the next version is going to be much better one in all aspects. This version of Facebook 2.0 was in the making during the month of September. They had probably fulfilled their promise and kept it very close to the expectations of its users. Recently, the new version of Facebook was out now and it had a very intuitive, simple and tidy interface. It does have that nativity at the same time some pretty good functionality too.

For instance the older version of the Facebook had NewsFeed feature supported in which any kind of photo uploads and updates in the status alone were displayed. In case of the new version this newsfeed feature had been through refinements and now it displays all kinds of updates in the profiles, photo uploads and new posts. You can set the feed limited to your interests and needs. You can even make comments on the news so it is highly customizable when it comes to user preferences unlike the annoying previous version.

This major release hit the App store and is already the talk of the town for the iPhone users. I bet it is worth than the time you spend for the upgrade and you can get it from the iTunes link. Though it has few limitations when it comes to support of facebook based applications by the browser it much better to have it, since this iPhone application is far better than having the annoying applications when we browse through the site.

New Features

  • Improved News Feed
  • Notifications
  • Profile Redesign
  • Search for and Approve New Friends
  • Bigger Inbox

Apple iPhone – “Could not activate cellular data network”

Last week when I updated my Apple iPhone 3G with the new firmware updated version 2.0.2 released recently. As usual the iPhone worked perfectly normal after this upgrade, but surprisingly today morning when I tried to check my mails on the phone it started giving following error “Could not activate cellular data network” which I expected to be related to service provider and blamed them but later something else actually happened. I tried restarting the iPhone for several times but it didn’t work at all for a long time after a series of attempts.


I really got fed up and I tried calling AirTel customer care, but they suggested me to call Apple Care India(1800-425-0744) which is toll free and I expected some good support from them. When I called Apple Care people for help, they guided me to the following URL to have a look at support information on iPhone: http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/in/. So again with a hope to fix it I tried opening the web page but the above link disappointed me by giving “Page Not Found” error( Apple are you Listening? sorry Reading?).

None of the above information or support helped me to resolve this issue, then I came back to home and started searching for this problem on Google(Yes I believe in Google) expecting some useful information. Fortunately I found some useful information which gave me some relief after all the attempts.

I had resolved this issue very easily by following these steps(twice):

Go to: Menu > Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Once you Reset the network settings, iPhone3G got restarted and then above issue got resolved related to cellular network and now it was working fine. Thank God(Should I say Thank you Google?).

Rumour ! – Apple Iphone 32 GB and Home Activation Option.

Boy oh Boy…It never stops with Apple does it.First the phenomenal release of IPOD nano then a more advanced 8GB version of IPOD nano and now the new talk of the town.Apple Iphone 32 gb. You heard it right boys and girls.Apple has this new gadget just under their sleeve.However what is more intresting then the model itself is Apple’s scheme of a home activation(unlocking) proposal meaning having an apple phone without a contract.

The home-activation feature basically allows an iPhone user to activate his/her contract through iTunes without need of any authentication at the Apple Store. This was a fast process compared to the current In-Store activation method but was discontinued by Apple for some reasons.

The other option that most users are looking forward to is the ability to purchase unlocked and contract-free iPhone models to be used with carriers and in countries where the iPhone is not yet officially available.

Since the slow down in sales as featured at Appleinsider Apple might just be doing anything it can to jazz up its sales chart.As the title suggests its maybe a rumour but we have seen Jobs follow this pattern with IPOD so no surprise if it is true.

Ski along apple.We love you.
