iPhone 3G hacked for WiFi tethering to your laptop
Posted on 21 July 2008
Talk about frustrating: when you're in an area with decent coverage, the iPhone 3G can notch up some impressive data speeds. AT&T, though, won't let you take advantage of all that speedy data by tethering the handset to your laptop; you're only meant to use the unlimited plan on the iPhone 3G itself.

If you're looking to dismantle your iPhone 3G but you'd rather have some pieces slightly larger than dust left over at the end of the process, than iFixit should be your first port of call.

iPhone 3G gets the Blendtec ‘Will it blend?’ treatment
Posted on 11 July 2008
Asking "but will it blend" may be an internet cliché by now, but there's still a shiver of half-glee, half-disgust to see a perfectly happy gadget turned to dust in one of Blendtec's industrial-strength tech-chompers. And on iPhone 3G launch day, what better toy to get the blender treatment than Apple's new cellphone. Check the video after the cut, and ... continued »
iPhone 3G sales surprise even Apple; iTunes leaves many unactivated
Posted on 11 July 2008
Apple may have learned from the first iPhone launch, but today's release of the iPhone 3G still didn't quite go smoothly. Demand once again exceeded supply; I stopped by the Apple store in San Francisco this morning, where staff were surprised by the 300+ queue that had stretched around the block before the 8am opening.

O2 UK discount iPhone 3G to free
Posted on 10 June 2008
Back when the iPhone first launched in the UK, many users were disappointed by the comparatively high price Apple and carrier O2 were charging. One of the key messages from the iPhone 3G announcement, then, was the confirmation that the same $199 (or equivalent) entry point would be matched in all markets. O2 have just unveiled their monthly contract details, ... continued »

iPhone 3G - hang on, where’s the…
Posted on 09 June 2008
Say what you like about Steve Jobs, he knows how to put on a good show. It was hard to keep track of the deafening applause during the WWDC 2008 keynote - in fact it seemed like every few minutes the iPhone 3G got a mini-ovation - and there's no doubting that it's an impressive device.
