How to 6: Use Iphone as a Sweet Assistant

What you may have experiences:  Keep time is essential for anyone who wants to be responsible, to achive goalds, to be healthy, and to be loved. We may forget an important thing we promised, we may forget a deadline, we may forget birthday for important persons, we may even forget to have meal while forcsing on something important! With the assistance of an iPhone, you may avoid many of these problems.

What I suggest you to do: iPhone comes with two distinct functions can help you solve many of the problems: Calendar and Alarm. For example, you can program the birthday of all important persons you want to remember into your calendar, set them as "once a year" for ever, and remind you at least "one day" in advance. If you tend to forget lunch while working (like me), you may set your alarm,say at 12:30 and name it as "Lunch Call". Your iPhone will call you everyday. If you do not want it to call you during the weekend, you simply set the alarm for the week days.  It is that easy.

How to #5: Nike Plus iPod for Workout

What is experienced: I was very happy while I got my iPhone 4 because I noted that it contains the Nike + iPod application, which may greatly enhance my outdoor exercise. It even excited more after hearing some blog says that no sensor is needed for iPhone with 3G. However, while I tried to use the function, it always ask me "walk around to activate the sensor."  Although the voice is beautiful and encouraging, I could never be able to activate the sensor (I assume that a sensor may have already been built in) by running for several miles, jumping (worry if my running is too weak to activate the sensor).  With much dismay, I decided to give up, but just could not...

What happened and what can be done: What happened is that no sensor was built in iPhone 4, even though the Nike + iPod application is so appealing (I really hope that this be clearly indicated). If you want to use it, there are two options: (1) Buy a sensor from Nike; and (2) download and install a Nike + GPS app ($1.99).  Option 1 works perfect no matter you do exercise indoor or outdoor, and option 2 works well only outdoor because it needs to receive the signal from the satellite, which often works outside of a building.
