Live at WWDC 2009. Man, I love DIY stuff. This one’s no exception. Given the fact that new 3G S owners have proven — in large numbers — to be vid-crazy, the following YouTube clip will be really handy for someone out there who’s trying to figure out how to mount their iPhones for shake-proof captures. Obviously, this isn’t intended to be a permanent case for the device (how would you stick this in your pocket??). But as a camera accessory, as opposed to a phone... I was reading Game Informer magazine the other day, and the Letter from the Editor was basically a shout-out to everyone who's ever accused him of favoring one platform over another over the years. He did this by running through a list of what he likes and dislikes about every major gaming platform currently on the market.Dealing with accusations of bias is a sad, annoying truth when you make a living reviewing *anything* for a... Given today’s great turnout for the iPhone 3G S, there will be no doubt be plenty of users saddled with their last-gen handsets stashed in an old-tech closet. Instead of letting that old iPhone 3G (or even older model) collect dust, why not trade in the relic for some cash? The following sites are buying up iPhones at decent prices right now. This is not a comprehensive list, so if you have others to share, go ahead and chime in at the bottom.... My folks were in town recently and while they were visiting my Mom asked me about getting a new cell phone. "Is the Curve a good phone?" she asked. Uh-oh, I thought. My Mom is no techie, so where'd she hear about the Curve? Is she running with some no-good retirees who've put crazy ideas about BlackBerries in her head?Turns out she was at a party when some bit of trivia was being discussed that nobody could quite remember... A little over a week ago, Noah reported on a rumor from MobileCrunch about a $10 decrease to monthly iPhone rate plans. Now BusinessWeek is getting in on the action, giving this rumor some legs. According to BW, people in the know at AT&T say the company’s “considering cutting the price of its monthly service package or offering a range of lower-priced plans." The idea on the table is a $20 “limited-access’ plan that might be available along... In what seems like a 180-degree reversal, Apple may be changing its mind about allowing background apps into the App Store. This doesn’t come from one pimply-faced anonymous tipster shooting off an email to a third-rate blogger. No less than three reputable media outlets have reported that the company is deep in brainstorming mode, trying to figure out how best to approach these kinds of applications. Apple had famously denounced background... Pros: "S" for speed in the name, certainly hold true! Camera + Autofocus + Video Recording (Better than Jailbroken Video Recorders in my opinion) Compass might be of some very good GPS and navigation use. Cons: No multitasking No Flash with the camera No Flash for web browsing Summary: I was always on the fence on whether to upgrade or not. So I waited, after hearing the never ending praise for the device, I decided to go ahead and get it. First impressions: The Screen is certainly a LESS of a fingerprint-magnet than it's predecessor. It isn't fingerprint-resistant. Camera is somewhat better quality and the finger touch autofocus feature is very helpful. The ability to trim videos is a cool little feature. A flash would have made it perfect. Speed: It is considerably faster than both the V1 and the 3G, a direct result of the increased RAM and the faster processor. Web: Safari usually loads pages faster than before due to the new Java Nitro (i think!) Find my iPhone: It sucks that you have to pay for it, but worthwhile none the less. Was the $200 upgrade worthwhile? ... Ummm... Certainly a better phone but not worth the $200 or the inability to upgrade to the next one as soon as it comes out. Here's to the hoping that the iPhone 2010 is a step ahead like the 3G was and not a mere RAM upgrade! Pros: 1. Safari is better than other phone internet browsers. Very fast. 2. Sensitive touch screen 3. The virtual keyboard helps you type faster with auto correction. 4. 3G speed 5. Many apps. Very useful. 6. A good iPod or music player. 7. Stylish Design 8. Easy to use 9. The screen is scratch-resistance 10, jailbreakable! Sim lock can be unlocked! 11. The mic on the hand-free earphone is slim. 12. push mail sservice Cons: 1. 2.0 mega pixel camera 2. Battery life goes short when used excessively. 3. The back cover is easily scratched 4. Apps sometimes close or hang due to the lack of ram. 5. CPU is underclocked from 620MHz to 412 MHz 6. A little complicated when adding ur own ringtones to iphone 7. Jailbreaking and unlocking are a little bit complicated. Summary: iPhone is certainly the best smartphone which keeps you in touch with the internet everywhere with the web browser Safari. Its multiple-touch screen enables a convenient use of the phone. Also, it is supported by lots of apps which bring lots of functions to the phone. Besides, it is an ipod. Finally, since the day I bought the iphone, I started to love using mobile phone. Pros: everything so far Cons: nothing so far Summary: i just got an iphone this phone is a definate upgrade from my lg vu that would freeze on me and take forever to load i havent run into any of the probles other people have mentioned yet so id reccomend it to everyone 1 out of 2 people found this review helpful Pros: it's so great to hold. the touch screen is definetly the best out their. Cons: nothing i know their going to change. Summary: okay, first of all apple is fixing the picture messaging and video messaging anf forwarding on the iphone in june. they are also adding copy past and cut. now that might mean apple is also bringing out a new iphone.. i don't know. but for now when these features come to the iphone it's going to revolustionise the iphone. there are over 100 new updates to it, so if you ask me it's worth the money. 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful Pros: - they have endless anount of APPs that you can put on it - it is more then a phone Cons: -they run out of batter quick depending on how much stuff you have on it. - Summary: Every so often something comes along that revolutionizes the way we do things, a smart product that’s so intelligent, it’s scary. The iphone is such a product. When it was launched, it immediately change our view of what a smart phone was supposed to be. When my mom first got the iPhone, she couldn’t keep her hands off of it. She thought it was the most wonderful thing in the world. It has everything that she could imagine Wifi, ipod, video, phone and much more. Then one day she had to charge it and it wouldn’t charge, she was so mad. She had had other things happen;like it wouldn’t come on, but she just when to my big sister Brittaney and asked for help. She always new what to do, and she always got it to work again, but this time it didn’t. She thought it was the biggest thing that she could rely on in a time of need. So when this happened,she had to call the tech support to see if it was anything that she did(she isn’t really a technical person). There wasn’t anything that they could find, but they where really helpful going though everything that they could possibly be wrong. Once she was done, she then called the cell phone company and they arranged for her to get a new iPhone. She was very happy after that, until she got it. She had spent every waking hour on the computer putting everything on it that she needed and wanted. Then when she had to get the new one she had to put everything that she had on the other one back on her new one, that process right there took her another 2 days of being on the computer forever. Now that she has a new one everything has been going pretty well. Nothing has happened and she is happy. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful All Apple iPhone 3G Black - 16GB user reviewsIf you're trying to avoid the 3G data monthly charge, it's impossible. You can, however, do it with the original iPhone. If you have or can get an original iPhone, you can sign up with ATT. You then call them and ask them to iliminate the $20 data plan for the iPhone. You won't be able to use any applications that connect to the internet UNLESS you're connected to a wifi-network. When you ask if it's worth buying the iPhone 3G, it all depends on... Is it worth buying the Iphone 3G, and is their a way to avoid the 30/month data charge fee and still use the Iphone 3G with at&t? Im in a situation where i want the Iphone 3G but don't want to waste all my money it, and switch over to at&t b/c I have US Cellular right now. Does anyone know a site where I can get a unlocked Iphone 3g?,,(the reason im asking is the only place I see is Ebay, and I'd prefer Not to use it,,,,,and while im here,whats up with the next Iphone rumor,,in June? If you have ever been in a meeting or in school and cant reply to an sms message, you understand how annoying it is to constantly have your iPhone vibrating or giving reminders...Well the trick I have found out is that just like when you are trying to open up the shortcut for ipod controls you can double tap the home button on the lock screen and it will consider the sms message as read, and you no longer have to deal with annoying reminders! definatly the iPhone...its amazing and its getting even better every single day cuz of new apps and stuff....eventually, the iPhone will be considered a gaming system, and its already a multimedia system....its worth the price n it even has wi-fi on it! I didn't know you had to pay for updates, is there an article about this? That's insane! It's like buying the new 10.x for 150$ when it's a free service pack update in windows. hey well im still pretty confused about the price on the iphone 3g.Is it 200$ with a contract if ur new or already have the old iphone and need the upgrade? and if its the upgrade is it 400$ for the iphone if ur new to buying the iphone 3g? so if anyone can answer my question tyvm bye.. really?dudei need a good phone and now i got the chanceeeeeeeeeshiet Yes, thats a good choice of using such a good product for iPhone scratches.
