They're wondering if they are going to have to carry around a laptop just so they can charge their iPhone via USB. The good news is that companies are coming out of the woodwork to produce iPhone chargers. ... continued »

The video shows a first shooter game for the iPod.  Looks like you’d use the scroll wheel to control left and right movements.  If the iPhone were open to 3rd-party developers, we’d get some amazing games such as this one.

But no, there is this Meizu M8 Phone that has been rumored on a few forums, that packs a way better array of features than the iPhone (or at least this is waht number say!): 3.3-inch 720×480 ... continued »

Verizon Says No thanks to Apple iPhone deal

Posted on 29 January 2007 by

I commend Verizon for their decision but was it foolish of them to say no to Apple?  According to US Today Verizon rejected Apple’s offer as the exclusive carrier for the iPhone due to Apple’s terms.  Had Verizon agreed, they’d be giving up “a percentage of the monthly cellphones fees, say over how and where iPhones could be sold and ... continued »
