When iPhone news breaks, iPTIB uses Twitter to get you the story. It's the perfect companion piece to this blog.
Plus, it's free and fun.

If you love iPTIB on Twitter, you'll also love RedEye on Twitter. It's my parent publication and features trends, celebrities, news and whatever else we can think of.

It's easy! Go to redeyechicago.com/ iphoneblog in mobile Safari and hit the "+" at the bottom of the screen. Icon featuring yours truly included!

"iPhone, Therefore I Blog" is written by RedEye's Scott Kleinberg with you, the iPhone enthusiast, in mind.
If it isn't fresh, fun, thought-provoking and unique, then it isn't iPTIB.

Take a screenshot from your iPhone

Thursday, July 10, 2008 -- 7:12 p.m. -- at my desk

Here's a neat new feature to play around with when you get iPhone 2.0 software.

If you press the home key and the sleep/wake button at the top at the same time, your screen will flash and place a photo of the current screen into the camera roll as if you took the photo with the camera.

Actually, you did, but this is how you activate it.

So now we can all see crystal clear shots of whatever screen you are in - perfect for showing off those cool looking screens and for assisting with troubleshooting.

So there you go. Works on any iPhone, 2.0 required.

Thanks for calling.

That is a great feature. Works well within programs.
