Before doing the surgery, I had my doubt, but after, the sound of my 1st gen iPhone speaker was clear and loud, at the point that I had to reduce it for some YouTube videos and iPod songs!
The operation is quite simple. You only need a needle to poke the film dust that cover the iPhone speaker (left of the cradle connector, the right one being the microphone). All the holes can be poke easily except for the ones (6-8) close to the cradle connector. For security measure I suggest you didn’t poke more than 1/8 of inches, but it is almost impossible to damage the speaker unless you strike all your needle in.
I suggest that you test your speacker before and after the operation. You should get a sound increase of at least 50%.
The best company is one in which the employees are so engaged in their work that the company fades into the background.
Twice I’ve been to the Montreal Apple Store this week.
Once, to get the Power Support Crystal Film for my iPhone 2G.
Second, to return the product as it was made only for the iPhone 3G (as the dimensions are slightly different between the iPhone 2G and 3G).
The thing is, they don’t sell the Crystal Protective Film for the iPhone 2G in Canada. Remember, we are not even suppose to have the iPhone 2G. Even on the Canadian Online Apple Store, they don’t sell it.
I end up having two options: buy it on ebay or the merchant store for twice the price including the shipping or find similar product.
The second option was more promising: Zagg invisibleSHIELD for iPhone, an ultratine protective film of military grade, bombproof transparent material that doesn’t interfere with the sensivity of the touch screen and doesn’t add any weight or bulkiness to your iPhone.
Zagg also offer free international shipping!
I order also the same protective screen for my Panasonic DMX-FX01 digital camera, I applied one of the coupon code find on RetailMeNot and received a 20% discount. What a bargain!
To get a sense of the protective material, watch the following demo video on YouTube:

I let you know how it goes, but from the other blogger reviews, I pretty confident.
A manager’s job is to make sure things get done without doing a thing.
In other words, to employ the strategy and tactics that attain the set objectives.
A manager delegates.
A manager has to be a leader, otherwise delegation, change and crisis management becomes impossible.
