Set a reminder to reply to a text message on the iPhone

If you get a text message when you’re in an application and don’t want to leave that app to respond, but you’re worried that you’ll forget about the text message when you’re done, here’s a simple solution…

When the text message arrives, push the lock button to lock the iPhone’s screen. Then press it again and unlock. You’ll still be in the same app, but the text message dialog will be gone. When you exit the app, you’ll see the red “1″ counter on your SMS icon, reminding you to respond to the text message.

Flip Video Ultra HD video review

What better way to give you a look at Flip Video’s new Ultra HD camcorder than by reviewing it on video… shot with the Ultra HD. The specs are simple: 720p / 30 FPS, 8GB of storage on-board, HDMI out, and pretty much nothing else. Still, a camera this cheap ($199.99) and this small definitely has its uses. Of course, you’ll probably be distracted (like we were) by the bad, bad image stabilization issues. But don’t just read about it — take a look at the gallery below to scope out what the thing looks like, then watch the videos after the break to hear (and see) our thoughts, and catch the cam in some heavier — shakier — action. Needless to say, both videos are available in HD.

Update: The videos should now be working properly. Sorry about that guys!

Update 2: Apparently YouTube is sucking right now and hasn’t finished encoding the HD version of the review video, even though we upped about five hours ago. Awesome.

The Daily Roundup: here’s what you might’ve missed

	Sony unveiling UMD-less PSP with slide-out buttons at E3? Whispers of a new or revised PSP have been growing decidedly louder as of late, and now 1UP‘s gotten a ton of new details from what it claims are “sources directly involved with the new system” — our favorite kind of people, actually.		iPhone OS 3.0 beta 4, iTunes 8.2 pre-release now live Just two weeks after the last revision went up, Apple’s released iPhone OS 3.0 beta 4 to the developer community alongside an iTunes 8.2 pre-release.

	Samsung’s 23-inch OLED TV coming in 2010, others following suit Given just how long we’ve been looking at prototype OLED panels at trade shows (and trade shows alone), we’re understandably skeptical about a few new claims regarding availability.		Motorola’s first Android phone(s) to have sliding QWERTY? Motorola needed to release an Android set about six months ago, but we know these things take time — and if it’s any consolation, it sounds like the first fruits of the labor could be pretty awesome.

Palm launching smaller Pre-like device later this year says rumor-mill

As if we didn’t have enough Pre rumors to sort through, along comes TechCrunch and Mikey A. with some hard hitting stuff. According to the TC honcho, one of his “better sources” claims that Palm is “very far along” on a second webOS device which is smaller and slimmer than the Pre and may or may not have a physical keyboard. Apparently, this won’t be the iPhone 3G to the first-gen iPhone, rather a device which addresses “a different part of the market.” Details are still sketchy, but Arrington claims that the “Mini-Pre” (his name) will land sometime this year — possibly as soon as the Fall. This is all complete rumor right now, but Palm has previously said that there would be more than one webOS device, so the idea of another model in the oven doesn’t exactly come as a surprise. Stay tuned for further updates as we get them.

PiSAT Solar’s K-Light boasts a one-to-one charging ratio

It’s pretty rare that a portable solar-based device offers much more utility than impressing your friends, but PiSAT Solar’s K-Light won’t only make you the coolest kid on your block: it might actually prove useful the next time you take a hike or find yourself hanging out in a developing country. In 10 hours of daylight charging the unit gathers up to 20 hours worth of battery power for use in the low-power 8 LED mode, or 10 hours of life if used in 16 LED mode. It’s also switchable between flashlight and lantern modes. That should be great for campers, but where the K-Light really “shines” (so to speak) is in places like Africa, where villagers without electricity often use makeshift kerosene lanterns for light at night. K-Light is designed for up to 10 years of full daily use in such a scenario, and PiSAT is working on an adapter to let the lantern’s battery also charge a cellphone. At $50 a pop, the barrier to entry isn’t incredibly high, and PiSAT is working with the Koinonia Foundation to provide start-up grants of K-Lights to groups of African women to create local businesses selling the lights. One-off purchases are also available now online for us non-entrepreneurial types.

HP ProBook 4710s hands-on

We just had a quick run-in with the 17-inch version of HP’s new ProBook s-series laptops. The design is almost startlingly nondescript, but not so minimal that it feels like they aren’t trying. Build quality isn’t legendary — there’s a little bit of keyboard flex, as noted by Laptop, and the whole thing feels a bit overly plastic — but on the plus side it’s lighter than it looks and should certainly hold up well to most pursuits. The keys have a bit of casual wobble to them, but they’re clacky in the right sort of way, and very well defined. The screen is oh-so-thankfully non-glossy, and plenty fine to look at, but the lid on the back is regretfully smudgetastic. Overall it seems like there’s plenty there for the money, but it’s not going to have high-end business buyers confused in the slightest.

Yearning for more info on the HP MediaSmart LX195? Here’s some new concrete details for you to go along with the leaked images from earlier this month. As previously suggested, it’s got a a single 640GB internal SATA drive with 7200RPM, with the only option for expansion being via the four USB 2.0 ports in the back. We’re also looking at a 1.6GHz Atom 230 processor, 1GB RAM, Windows Home Server software and support for Apple’s Time Machine.

AT&T’s “new” video streaming terms are a non-issue

There’s an awful lot of hubbub going around today about “new” terms in AT&T’s wireless contract agreement that seemingly forbid streaming video from your television to your PC or your phone — in other words, using a Slingbox — which would seem to be a rewrite of language added and pulled a few weeks ago. Here’s the problem: the terms aren’t new, and they don’t forbid video streaming. One of our editors has a month-old hard copy of AT&T’s terms that were mailed to him after agreeing to a new contract, and they’re exactly the same — word for word.

Furthermore, the language in question is this: “This means, by way of example only, that checking email, surfing the Internet, downloading legally acquired songs, and/or visiting corporate intranets is permitted, but downloading movies using P2P file sharing services, redirecting television signals for viewing on Personal Computers…” but the problem is that the examples given here are referring to earlier language. In that language, we see that AT&T is more concerned about “server devices or host computer applications” — that’s subsection (i), if you’re interested. In other words, AT&T’s trying to stop you from uploading a television stream using its connection, not downloading — and frankly, that sounds like the most painful operation ever conceived by man anyway, so we don’t think we’re going to get too many violators here.

In other words, rest easy; we still don’t know whether the now-overdue SlingPlayer for iPhone will ultimately be approved, but if it’s not, it shouldn’t be because of this.

[Thanks, Mike and Tieguy]
