Well anyone who complained about the iPhone being expensive here in the US can officially shut it (myself included).
An ad for the 8GB iPhone in Germany (pictured above) has the phone costing a whopping 899 Euros. Do some quick currency conversions and you find that 899 Euros is over $1,200 USD! Holy smokes! That puts [...]
Back when the Zune dropped (and kept dropping…) I was talking with a friend about the features - specifically the wifi that came built-in. While the product as a whole seemed like a brick, there was something interesting about having a media device with ad-hoc wifi enabled. He envisioned a new wave of [...]
As with any new Apple product, the accessory market has exploded for the iPhone. With the new product and accessories come scores of websites, fan forums, and reviews of everything under the sun that may be related. But the resulting problem often times becomes a glut of information; And who do you really [...]
Earlier this month, Apple delivered on what fans had long been asking for - a widescreen iPod video with the touch screen capabilities of the iPhone, but without the hassle of going though AT&T to gain phone service. It even debuted with a WiFi-enabled iTunes Music Store.
The new iPod Touch looks like an iPhone [...]
Last week after the announcement of the iPhone price drop, Steve Jobs posted an open letter to iPhone owners telling them they’d get a $100 in-store credit for being “early adopters.”
Apple has now posted the full details of exactly how to get that $100 credit. It involves text messaging and electronic access codes. How [...]
I bought several cases for my iPhone when I got it (on June 29th) and one of my favorites was the Incase Protective Cover which is like a neoprene glove for my iPhone.
Unfortunately, soon after getting the case, it started stretching and now my iPhone will barely fit inside. I called up Incase and [...]
In just over 2 and half months (10 weeks and 4 days to be exact), Apple has sold its one millionth iPhone.
Apple’s goal was to sell 1 million iPhones by September and sure enough they hit their goal. Certainly the recent price drop helped push things a bit more in the past few days but [...]
A letter from Steve Jobs on Apple’s site not only apologizes to early iPhone adopters, it promises them $100 in credit to the Apple Store in an attempt to make amends. This will hopefully calm the fires that are burning among many of the Apple faithful that feel “cheated” by yesterday’s $200 price drop.
Wow. I [...]
In case the 8GB iPhone is still just outta reach (despite yesterday’s price drop to $399) and you think you can get by on a measly 4GB of memory, you can grab a 4GB iPhone online at the Apple Store for $299.
I have to say that I’m actually considering it, as I have [...]
If you haven’t heard already, at yesterdays event Steve Jobs announced that on top of dropping the 4GB iPhone, the price of the 8GB iPhone would be dropped by $200 to $399 (from $599…for the mathematically challenged).
The iPhone was released barely 2 months ago and thus a few users (especially those who dropped $600 on [...]
Today at 10AM PST Apple held a special event called “The Beat Goes On” in which a whole slew of new iPod and iTunes announcements were made. The entire iPod line was “refreshed” including the addition of a new iPod Touch model that is similar to the iPhone. Here’s an overview of the new products [...]
iPhone users quickly found out that the headphone jack on the iPhone is recessed several millimeters and standard headphones won’t fit in the jack.
Belkin Adapter
The first company to release an adapter was Belkin, but the adapter is rigid, ugly and looks like a 3″ antennae sticking out of the top of your iPhone. The adapter [...]
The iPhone is consistently being used in other areas besides simple phone calling and messaging.
Web-based health and fitness tracking website, Gyminee, has adapted their web application’s interface to work perfectly with the iPhone.
Now when you go to the gym you can take your iPhone with you to help keep track of your work out along [...]
This obviously isn’t a regular price drop, alas, the wildly popular - and successful - iPhone just dropped on the public a month and a half ago. But there are refurbished models available on Apple’s Hot Deals site. If you act quickly, you’ll be able to grab a 4GB iPhone for $399 (instead [...]
Joining the ranks of iPhone-specific web applications, is the web hosting company, Media Temple (mt). Their angle is to offer iPhone-toting customers, access to control panel services for their (mt) hosted websites.
Buy Domains, pay bills, reboot your server, and a slew of other options await the (mt)/iPhone crowd. I don’t rock the [...]
“Oh, it looks like an iPhone.” That was my wife’s opinion when she took a look at the brand new iMac. I thought the black bezel looked out of place on a Mac. I didn’t understand the thought behind the design. When my wife mentioned the iMac’s similarity to the iPhone, I thought she hit [...]
Mr Johnson (seriously?) got himself snipped in order to get the go ahead from The Boss (c’mon married guys, we all know it’s true) to buy himself an iPhone. Funny Story.
Funnier is that just tonight my father-in-law relayed a story of his evening waiting in line for the iPhone. Turns out [...]
Being iPhone-less (I know, my life must be awful beyond comprehension) I can’t speak directly about the iPhone update, but TUAW’s Erica Sadun has everything you could possibly want to know about it.
Some highlights:
Looks as if Safari is the main target of this update.
If you’re a dirty modder (sarcasm people!) it looks like [...]
Yes, I realize I brought up this topic before, but I wanted to revisit it, now that the beloved iPhone has landed. My hope is that some people can answer a couple of questions I have:
1. M3/M4 Hearing-aid compatibility?
- This is a quick one: how well does iPhone play with hearing aids? In the past, GSM [...]
UPDATE:
And of course after I hit Publish, I notice that there’s an update to the story (thank goodness it’s friday!) It appears that it was actually Cisco’s issue, and it’s since been patched. No details on the cause or the fix (wonder if I’ll find out in my Cisco-centric day job…?) but all [...]
