In just one of the strange things you’ll be seeing here from time to time, I created a webapp of the classic Buddhist text - the Dhammapada. You can view it on browsers aside from an iPhone, but you probably won’t get full functionality.

I actually created it while trying to work out good way to deal with texts on my iPhone and this arose from my experiments (as the Dhammpada is always a good read and my dog eared little copy was getting a bit frayed).The iPhone still lacks a solid eBook reader in either webapp or local app version (some good starts, but no one is quite there yet) so I may do this with a few other texts I find.

Well, Apple reduced the price of the iPhones. Now, we all knew they would - but I don’t think anyone expected anything like this. There are a lot of angry (and I believe deservedly so) early-adopters out there right now. A lot of Apple customers are feeling what it feels like to be a Dell customer right about now.

But, still, there is good in cheaper iPhones. It’s an amazing device, and a great piece of organizational technology rightly harnessed. If I can get my hands on one somehow, I’ll see about doing a breakdown for student use.

You may have heard the 4gb iPhone models have been discontinued, that’s true.. but until they sell out, they’re also selling for $299 where you can find them. Get ‘em while their hot!

After a few requests I have installled the iWPhone plugin, which pretties up the blog for use on an iPhone.  All you have to do is access it from your phone, and you can get all the Scholastici.us goodness you want!
