The latest iPhone software update version 2.02 has just gone live on iTunes. The usual detailed description has been provided by Apple, "Bug Fixes". Here’s hoping that this will address the well reported problems iPhone 3G users have been experiencing. One thing I have noticed is the signal strength has improved and the Modem Firmware has definitely been upgraded. Pics after the break
T-Mobile said today that it plans to launch a mobile phone powered by Google’s Android software, making it the first operator to do so and posing a direct threat to Apple’s popular iPhone. A spokesman for Deutsche Telekom, T-Mobile’s German parent, declined to comment on the launch date for the device which is made by mobile phone maker HTC.
WMExperts have posted a quick look video at the Iris Web Browser that runs on the WebKit rendering engine which powers the iPhones Safari browser. Unfortunately it looks a bit slow for prime time use but does render pages very nicely which is a big plus on a Windows Mobile device. Check out the video after the break.
Brando, who have just launched this 6x Zoom Telescope for the iPhone 3G. Now I am not being funny here but who is going to want one of these or for that matter risk being laughed at for using it. Apparently you can overcome the short comings of mobile phone cameras and now take some great shots. More pictures after the break.
If that’s not enough to get us sandbox’ed as spammers I don’t know what is. However, it is half-true. Orange UK are giving away the brand spanking Eee PC 900 16gb for absolutely nothing.
There is the downside of a two-year £25 a month contract, but for that you get 3GB data transfer and 100 text messages a month, and a free HSDPA modem.
Obviously the stonking £600 total cost of the contract is a little eye-watering, but if you were going to go for a mobile broadband contract anyway, maybe this will help you part with your money, and in my opinion and personal experience, Orange offers the most reliable coverage and quality of any network I’ve used.
Laptop: Asus EeePC 900 16gb
Modem: Option Icon 225 USB 3G Modem w/HSPDA
