      iPhone Software Update Out Friday

      September 9, 2008 Leave a Comment

      Thanks to this morning’s live tweeting of an Apple announcement event in San Francisco by Don MacAskill, it looks Apple will be release iPhone 2.1 software update on Friday.  According to Don, this new release will cuase fewer dropped calls (something that I personally have witnessed an unacceptable spike in over the past week) and longer battery life as well as a number of bug fixes.

      As a road warrior who lives on my Exchange email during the day, I have been meaning to write a road warrior’s review of the iPhone for a while.  Looks like I’ll have to wait till this weekend to see which of my annoyances Apple has fixed…

      VMware Studio Released

      September 8, 2008 3 Comments

      On Friday, VMware release the first version of VMware Studio.  As described on the Studio page:

      VMware Studio 1.0 enables software developers and hardware appliance vendors to build customized virtual appliances that can be shipped in industry standard Open Virtualization Format (OVF).

      While VMware Studio is designed for ISVs to author their own virtual appliances, I have a number of enterprise customers who are interested in this as well.  Either for creationo of internal virtual appliances as official versions of a software stack or as building blocks for creating a virtual machine library.  Studio is more suited to the former versus the later, other VMware tools like Lab Manager and Stage Manager have library functionality built into them which are better suited for hosting an enterprise VM library.

      VMware Studio is available as a free download from the above link.
