Old iPhone

25th July 2009 | 0 Comments

I've been trying to figure out what to do with my old iPhone now that i got a 3GS.  I've been thinking about jailbreaking it, but I don't want to spend a lot of time doing that.  And then last night a crazy idea came to me, turn it into my alarm clock.  Now my current clock radio isn't bad, its just that I hate waking up to talk radio and the battery backup never works.  Anyways i needed to find a way to prevent the iPhone from turning off the display, thats when I stumbled upon LCD Clock (App Store Link).  Its a 99 cent app that has a preference to prevent the screen from turning off.  Its totally a niche app, but it works perfectly for what I need it for.  Plus now i don't need an iHome alarm clock/iPod charger which cost about $100.

Next up I need to configure EyeTV to stream to my iPhone.
