Macrumors made an interesting discover when digging into the beta version of the iPhone OS 3.0. In one of the file one can display the following capture:
It seems that the video recording function will be included in the future iPhone OS 3.0. however, it is unclear if it will be available for all iPhone models, including the previous ones, or if it will be limited to the new version to be released in June. However, it is almost sure, that the zoom function will only be supported in the future model, as previous ones did not sport a camera able to perform such operation.
Now even wider -- Pano 3 for iPhone
Filed under: Software, Odds and ends, iPhone, App Store
Now Pano 3 (click opens iTunes) rewrites the rules for taking panoramas with your iPhone. The new version can automatically meld up to 16 photos, providing 360 degree panoramas. The team at Debacle added a way to resume interrupted panoramas, so if Mom called right as you were taking the fifth shot in your series of sixteen, you can pop back into Pano 3 and start right back up.
While the capabilities of Pano have increased, the price remains the same low $2.99US. I use this app a lot, and it's just about the most fun that you can buy for $3. If you have an iPhone and love to take photos, Pano's deserving of a place on your home screen.
After you've shot a few panoramas with Pano 3, take part in Debacle's I Love Pano Pano Panorama Contest. A group of TUAW bloggers are judges, and there are some great prizes.

Advantageous mp3 simplifies Amazon comparison shopping
Filed under: iTS, Freeware, Internet Tools, iTunes
Basically the Advantageous installer adds both an AppleScript to iTunes and a small application to your Mac. When you're browsing in the iTunes Store if you invoke the script from iTunes script menu in the menubar it will start the little application and search for the track in Amazon (via your default browser). It's not perfectly reliable (for instance, it didn't work with Choosy as my default browser and it messes up some searches), but it is a convenient way to surf for music in iTunes but take advantage of lower prices at Amazon. So now you can do to Apple what you've been doing to Barnes & Noble!
Advantageous mp3 is a free download from Robert Palmer.

Apple addressing cracks on white MacBooks casings
Apple is privately acknowledging an issue with the enclosure on some of its white 13-inch MacBooks, which in some cases have seen the formation of hairline cracks during normal usage patterns.
Ask TUAW: Bypass the registration screen, install Leopard Server on the new Mac Mini, iPhone 2G AppleCare options and more
Filed under: Features, Troubleshooting, Ask TUAW
Once again, it's time for another edition of Ask TUAW: the place where we try to answer all of your Mac and Apple-related questions. This week we're taking questions about bypassing the Apple registration screen, installing Leopard Server on the latest Mac Mini, AppleCare for iPhone version 1.0 and more.As always, we welcome your suggestions for this week and questions for next time. Please leave your contributions in the comments for this post. When asking questions, please include which Mac and which version of OS X you're running. If you don't specify, we'll assume you're running Leopard on an Intel Mac.
Tom asks:
When I do an install of OSX or after bringing home a new Mac I get to a screen that asks me to register. If I don't want to fill out that information in is there any way to bypass it?
Sure. Once you get to the registration screen simply press the Command and Q keys and you will see a new dialog box come up. On it, one of your choices will be to "Skip" the registration process. Simply click it and you'll move on to the next screen to create your user account and finish the setup of OSX.
John asks:
I have a Leopard Server installer DVD from last year and I'm having trouble installing the software on one of the new Mac Minis. It won't even boot the Mini nor will it work when I try upgrading OSX client to server. Once it installs I get endless restarts, etc. What's the best way to accomplish this?

iPhone App Of The Day - Creative Whack Pack
Sometimes it can be tough to be creative. You have so many things to worry about, that taking the time to think outside of the box just isn’t in the cards. Luckily you can have your own deck of cards working for you. The app is called Creative Whack Pack. It’s based on the popular card based creative enhancer. It’s kind of steep at $4.99, but if you’re having trouble thinking creatively then the Whack Pack can help. The proof is in their logo; is that a question mark or a phoenix?
