Glenn Head hails from Wiltshire, England. He's been into iMacs and iPhones and all things Apple since he became a graphic designer and realised there was a better way than Windoze. He's also been into writing from the time he learnt to scrawl words on a page (and no, that wasn't just last week). These two passions have led him to this moment in time - reviewing iPhone apps at 148apps.com.

When I first got my iPhone, I was amazed – due to the superb implementation of the web, that I could actually use it to buy my wife’s Christmas presents… from the sofa… while she sat next to me. I would ask her what she wanted, she’d have a little think, then tell me, then I’d buy it, without her even realising her wishes were coming true within seconds of her uttering the words.
