Corliss Blakely, a life-long Vermont artist, is now painting on the iPhone and iPad, which has “opened up a new world for artists,” as she puts it. Corliss has translated her realistic style in oils to the new technologies, stating, “the world is changing and artists now have a wonderful new canvas to create on.” Corliss purchased an iPad at Small Dog the day they came out, and was the first artist in the world to display an iPad painting on the internet!
The iPad is a mobile studio: artists can now create without the toxic paints and mediums they have used for centuries.
Her favorite painting app on the iPad is ArtStudio.
Visit her site at www.ipadpaintings.com to see her paintings and demonstrations.

Yes! As of a couple weeks ago, Apple quietly released a handy “AA Battery Charger,”:http://www.smalldog.com/product/76697/apple-battery-charger/at_bis accompanied by six batteries.
The charger itself mimics a laptop MagSafe power block, but is about a tenth of the size. The battery charger also uses much less power than a typical charger; it will sense when the batteries are fully charged and slow the current being drawn, known as “vampire draw.”
The batteries are also designed to last years without losing much of their charge. Apple claims they retain 80% of their charge after sitting a full year in a drawer. They also say the service life of the batteries should be closer to 10 years!
With six batteries and a very compact charger, its “$29 price tag”:http://www.smalldog.com/product/76697/apple-battery-charger/at_bis seems very reasonable to keep all your gadgets running for years to come.

When Apple first introduced the current generation of Multi-Touch trackpads on their MacBook and MacBook Pros, it was pretty amazing. Two finger scrolling is really just the tip of the iceberg for gesture controls. For the first time, I actually preferred the pad to my mouse. Now, I can have that same gesture interface on my iMac.
Apple’s new “Magic Trackpad”:http://www.smalldog.com/product/76695/apple-magic-trackpad/at_bis brings all the same fluid controls that make the MacBook so, well, magical.
Supporting one, two, three, and four finger gestures you can zoom, scroll, and use great Snow Leopard features like Exposé almost effortlessly. Also, paired with a Bluetooth keyboard, its wireless design will easily give you the slickest looking desktop around.
