Nine Hacks That Will Make You the Master of Your IPhone 2007-07-24 23:55:50 Only a few days after the iPhone went on sale, hackers were already kicking the wheels and checking under the hood to see if they could pimp out Apple’s locked-down smartphone. After a month, they’ve made surprising progress. Below, we detail some of the milestone hacks for what has been called “the most significant consumer electronics product ever.”
Most of the hacks that have been publicized so far are aimed at controlling or enhancing your own iPhone, but a darker side has emerged too. A security firm announced a possible Wi-Fi-based browser exploit, which could give hackers access to an iPhone’s microphone, surfing history and contact information — and possibly website and e-mail passwords stored on the phone, too. Make no mistake: The iPhone is a magnet for hackers, both good and bad. (more…) Read more:Master

AT&T activations falling short for IPhone 2007-07-24 23:39:44 In a first peek behind the iPhone launch, AT&T Inc. said Tuesday that it activated 146,000 devices in the first two days of sales, which coincided with the last two days of its second quarter. Analysts had estimated that 200,000 to 500,000 of the highly anticipated Apple Inc. product would be sold in the first three days.
AT&T, the exclusive carrier for the iPhone, released quarterly financial results but would not reveal how many new devices were sold. It would only say that the iPhone had continued to sell well this month after the initial weekend frenzy at Apple and AT&T stores beginning June 29.Wall Street shaved 35 cents off its shares, which closed Tuesday at $39.68.

Iphone, Affording Today’s Cell Phones is Tough, Solutions Exist 2007-07-23 04:39:19 It has been said that “where there is a will, there is a way.” That sentiment is well served by being applied to the purchasing of today’s cell phones and other electronic gadgets. The term techo-geek, short for Technology Geek, no longer applies to just the pocket protector using, braces wearing, non athletic, characters pictured in the TV shows and Movies. Now, this once derogatory term can be applied to the masses at large with no negative connotation whatsoever.
We all love our cell phones and PDAs and that love is only getting stronger as or lives demand our input in events at various locations simultaneously. As new technology provides more and more “stay in touch capacity.” We quickly fill that capacity with a new task that we add to our list. Technology is only feeding the internal human desire to do as much as possible, as fast as possible, while on the move.

is finally here! As a result, many free download sites have popped up that allow for downloading copyrighted material. It is best to avoid these sites as I am sure you do not want the authorities knocking on your door.
However, there are iPhone download membership sites that provide an excellent alternative to itunes. The problem is determining which of these iPhone sites provides the best service. Here are some tips to help.

Fee vs. One-Time Fee

The New Apple iPhone - Blessing or Curse? 2007-07-20 05:40:25 In just a single weekend, Apple
Inc. managed to sell over 500,000 units of its new Apple iPhone
. The anticipation was huge, and while there were a few minor glitches - mostly resolved now - the general consensus is that they were worth waiting for.
The advance of this micro-technology in the form of cell phones, mp3 players, PDA’s etc., is creating an amazing dependency on pocket-sized devices, and not just for the techies: stay-at- home-moms, children, even retired grandparents are jumping into the new trend with joyful - and addictive - abandon. We’ve come a long way, baby!

AT&T Laywers start to act on iPhone Unlocking Software 2007-09-08 20:28:23 Several groups have now said that they have software ready that robustly unlocks the Apple iPhone
and enables users to use the iPhone on other carriers. One of these groups now apparently (there are some doubts, as lawyers like to send written things first) got a call from AT&T lawyers reports Engadget.
This will become a very interesting development. First I am a bit surprised that AT&T gets involved first and not Apple. Considering the revenue share deals Apple is supposed to have made with European carriers, unlocked iPhones would put Apple in a weak position.

Biomorphic RThe unholy Apple/AT&T alliance has been undone, but iPhone is still a waste of money 2007-09-08 20:27:19 If your biggest gripe with Apple
’s flagship media player is that it refuses to make voice or data calls on anything but AT&T’s wireless network, you’re officially free. But the price of freedom, in this case, is either a very steady hand and soldering iron, or a willingness to send money to Australia in exchange for a “Turbo SIM,” delivery date unknown. Of the two methods, I prefer the third: Buy a real phone. Following an exhaustive comparison of alternatives, I have overwhelming backing for my early conclusion that iPhone
is vastly outmatched by several devices in its price class.

A Touch of Death About The iPhone Touchscreen? 2007-09-08 20:20:21 In the latest of a series of complaints, iPhone
users are reporting that sections of the screen go dead
Apple was today monitoring the latest mini-crisis to hit its much-hyped iPhone after some users began reporting that the touchscreen did not work.Threads on several Apple forums – including the company’s own – have been devoted to the problem, which causes parts of the device’s screen to go ‘dead’ and stop responding to the touch of a finger.
Typically the dead spot is a strip about half an inch wide that runs the width of the iPhone’s screen as it is held vertically, users experiencing the problem said.
In one case, the strip ran across the Unlock button, which meant that the user was unable to answer the phone when it rang.
“On the main screen, I can’t hit the button for clock, calculator, notes of settings,” ‘Gwas’, a user of the Apple-dedicated site Mac Rumors, wrote. “For text messages, I can’t hit the send button. On the phone keypad I can’t hi
