iPhone Users are Happy – Pre Users not so Much

So to say man's best friend can add years of happiness to your life. I like to think my iPhone can do the same. My iPhone has not only become an important part of my life, but every day does a good relief from the stress of all games available. Macrumors published a survey showing that 82% of iPhone users 3GS claiming to be "very satisfied" and 17% "somewhat satisfied."

AT&T iPhone 3G refurbs as low as $49

AT&T announced late Friday via Twitter that it is selling refurbished iPhones for as low as $49.The 8GB iPhone 3G is available at this price while supplies last at ATT.com. A quick cross-country glance via the iPhone 3GS availability tool showed us that the 3GS is in stock at most Apple stores, so AT&T may be doing this to clear out inventory of the older model. It probably won't have to wait long for this to happen since $49 is going to be hard to pass up for most people.   

Rejected by Apple, iPhone developers go underground

Apple is the exclusive gatekeeper to its iPhone App Store, able to reject apps at will -- as it did July 28 with Google Voice. Some would-be iPhone developers, rejected by Apple, are turning to an unauthorized app store called Cydia. But some developers aren't taking the... Read more...

Why iPhone 3G S is 2x Faster

So, where does the Apple iPhone 3G S get its claimed "2x faster" leap in speed? Rumors are rampant that Apple is using a new chip to crank up the performance. Why rumors when Apple has already announced the iPhone 3G S? Apple doesn't disclose chip-level hardware specifications. Moreover, Apple clearly wants to convince any prospective buyer than it's not the iPhone's individual parts that matter but the Apple-branded whole.   Apple claims a speed jump up to two times faster...

Got the iPhone 3GS? Don’t Use Magnetic Cases

The iPhone 3GS has a few new features that the older models lack. One of those features is the compass, which is pretty useful in mapping apps. Compasses use magnets to point out where the heck north is and it only makes sense that cases with magnetic closures might cause trouble. Word of such trouble is beginning to appear so buyer beware. Gearlog is reporting that when using a case with a magnetic flap, their iPhone 3GS has to have the compass recalibrated every single time they try to use... Read more...
