More design will be available shortly. Your purchase supports this website and my European travels.

Unveiled today from the Apple WWDC10 conference at Moscone Center in San Francisco is the new Apple iPhone 4. The new iPhone 4 is sure to be the best phone ever created and dominates its predecessor the 3Gs. Included in the iPhone 4 are a host of new features including;

Retina Display:

The 960-by-640 backlit LCD display boasts a pixel density of 326 pixels per inch, making it the highest-resolution phone screen ever. To achieve this, Apple engineers developed pixels so small — a mere 78 micrometers across — that the human eye can’t distinguish individual pixels. That makes text remarkably sharp and graphics incredibly vivid. IPS technology also provides excellent color and contrast from almost any viewing angle.

Stainless Steal Frame

Created from our own alloy, then forged to be five times stronger than standard steel, the CNC-machined band is the mounting point for all the components of iPhone 4. The band provides impressive structural rigidity and allows for its incredibly thin, refined design. It also functions as both iPhone 4 antennas.

Apple A4 Processor

Apple engineers designed the A4 chip to be a remarkably powerful yet remarkably power-efficient mobile processor. With it, iPhone 4 can easily perform complex jobs such as multitasking, editing video, and placing FaceTime calls. All while maximizing battery life.

Gyro & Accelerometer

iPhone 4 is the first phone with a built-in three-axis gyroscope. When paired with the accelerometer, it makes iPhone 4 capable of advanced motion sensing such as user acceleration, angular velocity, and rotation rate. Translation: More motion gestures and greater precision for an even better gaming experience.

Camera with LED Flash

The iPhone 4 camera shoots gorgeous 5-megapixel photos and stunning HD video. And with its advanced backside illumination sensor, it captures beautiful images even in low-light settings. The built-in LED flash does double duty. When you’re taking pictures, it works as a flash. When you’re shooting video it can stay on to light up the scene. And on the front of iPhone 4, the built-in camera is perfect for making FaceTime calls and shooting self-portraits.

Microphone & Speaker

While most phones have only one microphone, iPhone 4 has two. The main mic, located on the bottom next to the speakers, is for phone and FaceTime calls, voice commands, and memos. The second mic, built into the top near the headphone jack, is for making your phone and video calls better. It works with the main mic to suppress unwanted and distracting background sounds, such as music and loud conversations. This dual-mic noise suppression helps make every conversation a quiet one.

Multi-Touch Surface

With its large Multi-Touch display and innovative software, iPhone lets you control everything using just your fingers. How does it work? A panel laminated on the glass senses your touch using electrical fields. It can register multiple touches at once to support advanced gestures such as pinch to zoom, two-finger tap, and more. The panel then transmits the information to the Retina display below it.

Availability & Pricing

The Phone 4 will be available in black or white on June 24, and will cost $199 and $299 for 16 and 32GB. Pre-orders go on sale June 15th!

How did you come up with the idea for you site?

I’ve noticed a trend in the surf industry of more and more surfers leaning toward eco-friendly products. I wanted to give surfers one place to go to find gear that was not only eco-friendly but performed well too.

How did you decide to donate profits to different organizations?

I feel like there is more surfers can do than just buy eco-friendly surf products. In addition to being a site that promotes an environmentally conscious lifestyle, I wanted to promote taking action as well. There is a program called 1% for the planet that many companies join to give back. I just felt like 1% wasn’t enough. Every 3 months we pick out a new environmentally friendly non-profit and cut them a check for 5% of what we pulled in that quarter. We also feature them on our site under the “Enviro Spotlight” section to inform visitors of how they can get involved.

How do you pick products to feature?

We’re adding new products every day to the site. To be honest, I’ve become a huge fan of some of them and I want to make sure they don’t get overlooked by the general surfer. I hand pick them and feature a new one on the main page each week.

Will you feature your own product line?

We will be coming out with a couple “Shop Tees” that will mainly be promoting the shop more than anything, but I don’t plan on doing anything beyond tees and hoodies.

Do you have future plans to extend your line to other sports?

Absolutely. Once we gain some traction in the surf industry the plan is to branch out into snow as well.
