Supposedly based on an image of a larger-than-iPhone unit with a "distinguishing button or depression on each side" as seen by "trusted tipster", the device is intended to be held horizontally rather than vertically and is suggested to ...

All phones have their positives, and all phones have their negatives. The iPhone excels in many areas other phones don't, but other phones have some things the iPhone just couldn't stand up to. There are things I really dislike about the iPhone, and these dislikes are small compared to everything I do enjoy about owning an iPhone. I may have some issues with my phone that I don't know about, or it ...

Aftermarket earphones for the iPhone often call for a decision between either high-quality music or having a microphone for hands-free use; of course, there are choices which have the functionality of both, but they're usually expensive. Ultimate Ears, who already have a strong reputation for audiophile-pleasing headphones, have announced their latest addition to the Super.fi range: the 4vi designed especially for the iPhone.
