Top ten best selling phones of the third quarterDid you guess the iPhone or maybe the Chocolate by LG? Both would seem likely contenders to take the top spot, but unfortunately they didn’t even make the top three!The infamous Motorola Razr V3, yes the original version out sold all other consumer models to take the top spot for the third quarter. Part of its staying power has to be attributed to the fact most of the carriers offer the V3 for free with new service.
Motorola actually faired well having four models make the top ten list, while LG took three spots. Even with having such a presence, Motorola still only manages $80 profit per unit sold. To put that in perspective, Apples iPhone rakes in a whopping $400 per unit! As more 3G enabled phones are released during the fourth quarter (especially from Samsung) we should see some of the names and rankings change dramatically. Best sellers

Phone Wars: Why do (some) people hate the iPhone?I got this question today via Facebook and thought it warranted some thought ... and all that thought warranted a blog post. So I ask you, as you read on, what do YOU think? Why do some people just seem to hate the iPhone (and Apple) so much? Noah, maybe you can answer this for me: Why is it when people praise the iPhone, they're viewed as either blind fanboys, or on the Cupertino payroll, and when people praise 'any' other... iPhone Sports: SportsTap is a loser, ESPN for iPhone is a winnerI've been using SportsTap, a free iPhone application available at Apple's App Store, for the past month or two now. As of yesterday I'm no longer using it, and have replaced it on my Home screen with a link to ESPN's iPhone-optimized mobile site. Why?1. This past Sunday I was hanging out with a Mets fan friend of mine. I used SportsTap to check the score of the Mets game - which baseball fans know was do-or-die (die,... iPhone Watch: Facebook 2.0 app available for free downloadDid you know you can keep up with the PhoneDog Crew (that's what YouTube called us last week) via our Facebook page?

Their stock is getting hammered and leading a NASDAQ plunge. Esquire ran an article about how Steve Jobs is very much mortal, after all. And now this.9to5mac is reporting that an insider sort of tipster claims "Apple will be announcing iPhones for Verizon Wireless in 2009, perhaps as early as Macworld 2009." That's all kinds of good news for iPhone lovers and VZW supporters out there, and... iPhone on T-Mobile: More problems and more fixes for T-Zones dataSo my iPhone data went out again about two weeks ago. For the uninitiated, I use an unlocked iPhone on T-Mobile and get data via the $5.99/mo T-Zones plan. I unlocked my iPhone using PwnageTool for Mac, and activated the data using the "Big Boss T-Zones Hack" available via Cydia.
