I returned the battery to them and they posted out a replacement to the *wrong address*. Fortunately the recipient turned the delivery away – but Fastmac won’t talk to me about it at all and I still don’t have my battery. They now haven’t responded to my emails for over ten days.

I’ve had serious problems dealing with Fastmac and would recommend avoiding them.

I bought one of their replacement Macbook Pro batteries. After only a few charge / discharge cycles (about 30) it was only lasting about half an hour. At first they tried to tell me this was ‘normal’, but after speaking to their technical department they eventually admitted the battery was faulty.

Hi Vwls,
The iV doesn’t interfere with the phones reception and it doesn’t come in any other colors besides black.

Thanks

Does it interfere at all with the phone’s reception?

Does it come in any other colors?

Thanks.

” There is no way creating a strobe that a camera flash does when taking a photo in low lighting condition”

The reason normal cameras flash multiple times is usually for red-eye reduction. Only the flash that occurs right at exposure will affect the actual lighting in the image.

Thanks for the positive review Would like to point out that the Universal version also works with both iPod touch & nano. Until iPhone OS 3.0 came out, Apple wouldn’t allow us to synchronize the iV’s flash with the iPhone’s built-in camera. Now the possibilities are more open and we look forward to improving this product.
