HP iPrint Photo is a free downloadable software application that allows you to quickly and easily print 4″ x 6″ photos. Images stored on your iPhone or iPod touch can print on most HP networked ink jet printers connected to a local WiFi network.

Flickr, the well  known Photo sharing site has activated and redesigned an iPhone-optimized version of the site for anyone visiting the site with a mobile Safari browser. The menus are optimized to put the most common activities such as photo stream browsing, “Explore” mode, and recent comments, right up front, and your upload-by-email address is placed in the “More” section. Best of all, Flickr’s site pre-loads many of the iPhone-scaled thumbnails you’re checking out, so flipping between pictures often doesn’t require refresh.

A project has succeeded in installing the Linux operating system on a iPhone. For now, the achievement is just a first step, since it needs several major improvements. The project was completed by developers fans of both, Linux and iPhone.

By the time you’ve got is a dual-boot system: the pre-installed and the installed. When launching the device we should be chosen with which to operate.  Among the limitations that have not been polished is the inability to use the touch screen and lack of interface graphics and sound.

The 2.6 kernel that was moved to the platform runs on Apple’s iPhone devices, 3G iPhone and iPod Touch. The developers are still working on this project to improve the functionality of the operating system.
