I guess there is going to be a slew of videos for all the new apps on the iPhone. Here is one that is likely to be a big hit. Myspace is an extremely popular social network and this does seem to simplify the whole system. Video after the break.
PC Pro have given a pretty big thumbs down to the Diamond. Its fairly cutting and isn’t afraid to point out minor flaws as major flaws. They do have a few good things to say but its another interesting look at probably the most controversial phone since the iPhone.

UK VoIP provider Truphone has managed to get its client into the Apple store, though the application won’t make calls over the 3G network and calls it does make won’t be free. Truphone, a company with aspirations towards becoming a real telco, demonstrated VoIP running on an iPhone back in September last year, but back then native applications weren’t allowed on the iPhone, so it was never actually launched.
WordPress have announced a native iPhone application for posting from the iPhone directly to your WordPress blog complete with pcitures too. What is even more interesting is that it will be available soon for free in the App Store. This is great news for WordPress bloggers. Video of it in action after the break.
The crazy guys at iFixit went to amazing lengths to be one of the first to get hold of the iPhone 3G by flying out to New Zealand, now most people would take care of their new iPhone but not these guys, the moment they got it in hand they set about striping it down to see what its made up of. You can see for yourself after the break.
Msmobiles have posted an interesting article giving 12 reasons to buy a Windows Mobile Phone instead of the iPhone 3G, as we seem to be inundated with iPhone 3G news we though it would be a good idea to redress the balance and share the 12 reasons they have come up with after the break.
Vodafone UK are now offering the HTC Touch Diamond to business customers, this seems strange when you consider Orange are only offering their branded version to personal users and the phone is definitely being sold as a consumer phone and the HTC Touch Pro as the business phone. Oh well that is the strange world of network operators for you. Full details after the break.
After yesterdays dismal O2 performance its now time to give The Carphone Warehouse a big thank you. I decided to brave the weather, sleep deprivation and crowds and ventured out early this morning to try and nab an iPhone 3G. My first stop was the O2 store in Team Valley Gateshead only to be met with a huge queue of at least 50 people and if rumours are to be believed, stock of only a few dozen iPhones.
Apple’s new iPhone 3G goes on sale today and is available from Carphone Warehouse and O2 stores throughout the UK.
I’ve already seen long queues at local shops, both stretching about 100 yards from the door. I’m wondering if O2 and CPW have enough stock to satisfy eveyone one in the queue?!
So the question for today is would you every queue for a new gadget?

Here she is: the iPhone 3G, captured on video. Engadget have gone through a number of the new features on the device and in the 2.0 software release, but apologies in advance if you’re looking for side by side speed tests (there are some coverage issues where we’re at). Video of the unboxing, new feature walkthrough, and GPS use (while on a train) after the break.
