Ok. So WWDC has just wrapped up, and Steve Jobs told us about the 3G Iphone most of us knew he was going to talk about. Anyway, if you are wondering when the 3G Iphone release date date, then before I tell you, here’s what the new 3g Iphone is like.

Now, first off, the 3G iPhone looks like having the same sort of features and stuff as the first generation iphone. But there’s a huge difference in terms of speed. You see, with the faster 3G network, and built in GPS support, the Iphone is going to be as fast as an Olympic runner on steriods. (Ok. Maybe not that fast, but you know I’m getting at! :))

Anyway, the features which were played around with at WWDC will probably become part of the Generation 1 iPhone with the release of the iPhone 2.0 June update.

The new model has a claimed battery life of 300 hours on standby, five hours of talktime, up to six hours of web browsing, seven hours of video, or 24 hours music playback.

Besides 3G, the other big news was built-in GPS, with a focus on mapping and navigation applications, as well as location-aware social networking. Don’t expect the batteries to last quite as long for these.

Now here’s the cool thing about the 3G Iphone. And that’s the price. You see, there’s going to be a choice of 8gig which costs only $199. And the 16gig which is selling for $299.

You know, it’s like close to half the price of the Iphone when it was first released!

Anyway, the 3G Iphone release date is set for July 11 in 22 countries.

If you haven’t got an Iphone yet, this is the perfect time to get on board.

As you probably know, reports are spreading about the Iphone being released on June 9.

But the biggest leak are the 3G Iphone photos you can see above from the greek site, Iphone Hellas. You see, from the pic, it looks as though Apple are offering 3 colors to choose from. These include the usual black, white and a darkish red one.

And if you look closely, you’ll see there’s a front camera too which is no doubt for video chatting. As for the camera at the back, it’s got a silver ring around it. Not sure what this is all about, but some of my spys say its for the “auto focus”.

Apart from that though, the Iphone looks pretty much like its predecessor.

Now, before you take these pics as Gospel, we aren;t ure whether these pics are fakes or not. If they are, then they’ve done a pretty good job.

Anyway, when we have more updates on the new 3G Iphone, you’ll find it here first.

According to Britain’s The Times ‘industry sources’ claim the 3G will be ‘radically different’ in appearance than the one so many of us have grown to love.

They suggest the Gen2 iPhone may come as a flip phone whose display is larger than the current model or that it may sport a slide-out QWERTY keyboard. Moreover, they cite an unnamed Asia-based analyst who claims

“I think ultimately you going to see multiple versions,” one Asia-based analyst, said. “One for customers who want it principally as a music and video device, which will be similar to the existing model, one for people who want to communicate - with the keyboard, and one for people who want it as a substitute for their laptop - that will let them browse the internet on a larger screen.”

A few random thoughts on this current rumor…

1. I come from a tradition that is rooted in the importance of citing information “b’shem amro“– “in the name of the one who initially uttered it”. In other words, that which has a source has merit while that which does not have a cited source is, at best, suspect. I love when rumors are based on “industry sources” and “unnamed analysts”. FYI, my cousin ABCD knows someone who told him that…

2. I could understand multiple versions if the current model were a “jack of all trades but a master of none”. Since the current model handles all three– calls, internet and media– quite well already I am not sure why Apple would shift the focus to stressing on or the other. That strikes me as a step backwards.

2. Apple rarely lets on much, if any, true information prior to the release of new products. While we are close to the start of WWDC than we were this past Sunday, it is still weeks away. No matter what we do… WE HAVE TO WAIT.

If you’re like me, you probably take a few photos with your Iphone. But after a while, you realize it’s just not the same as a normal camera. You see, I only realized his when I went to take a couple of photos of myself. Now don’t ask me why I was doing it, but I did!

Anyway, if you have tried taking a photo of yourself, you know how impossible it is to try and click on the button on the screen. I I guess you gotta be a magician or something.

Now I’m sure if the tech dudes improved this feature, more of us would use the camera.

.. And take more and more photos.

But there are a team of geniouses who have improved on the camera features.

You see the dudes at Snapture have done something which gives heaps more funtions to the camera in the Iphone. You see, what they’ve done is added functions like zoom, time delay and more to really beef up the camera.

But the best one has to be the easy self photo. You see, instead of trying to find the sweet spot on the iphone, you just either click on the volume or anywhere on the screen. Is that cool or what!

Now, before you go out and get it, you must know it only works on jailbreaks. But I’m sure they’ll be working on one for the everyday iphone.

Since making my Mac-switch last December I have learned a good deal about Apple, Macs and iPhones. Perhaps the most important and consistent lesson has been this-

Apple is SMART, CUNNING, and ALMOST ALWAYS ONE STEP AHEAD- ESPECIALLY WHEN IT COMES TO PRODUCT RELEASES.

Translation- dream, hope, guess and prognosticate all you want but we have to wait.

We won’t really know anything until Apple decides to tell us and Apple isn’t talking until the Worldwide Developers Conference begins on June 9th.

If that is too long (let me repeat- you must wait no less than 4,924,800 seconds) the rumor-mill has much to keep your attention.

On the Hardware side of things–

Tgdaily is claiming that the new hardware will come in 8GB and 16GB flavors and will debut at WWDC in June with the 8GB running $399 and the 16GB one Benjamin more. According to their site-

The iPhone itself will come with a slightly thinner body, which sheds about 2.5 mm when compared to the original iPhone. The casing, we are told, will see revisions in its appearance, removing some of the “plasticky” feeling of some parts. There will not be any significant changes to the operating system as well as the graphical user interface, but we did hear that the accelerometer has been tuned a bit. Unfortunately, Apple decided to stick with a non-removable battery.

(I find the whole “plasticky” thing interesting since my iPhone feels the least “plasticky” of any of my recent phones- and there have been many.)

On the software side the rumors are even more numerous–

According to StuffTV (via Gizmodo), code found in the iPhone 2.0 beta firmware suggests we will see
-support for Nike+ .
-support for Bluetooth stereo headphones
-built-in GPS support
-the ability to use the iPhone as a computer or AppleTV remote
-support for direct printing
And (drum-roll please) dooms-day code that may well brick offending unlockers.
The string of code apparently reads

‘BRICKED_AND_SIM_LOCKED_STRING BrickedDevice Ignoring request to unlock because we’re blocked or bricked ‘

One hand gives while another takes away- ain’t it the way of the world?!

Enjoy the rumors– I am sure there will be many, many more– but remember-
there are almost 5 million seconds between now and WWDC
and no matter how nicely we ask…

This has already been a stronger than average week for 3G iPhone rumors - but here’s a late entry that is getting lots of play.  Walt Mossberg - the Wall Street Journal tech columnist - has mentioned (in passing while discussing a different subject, but quite confidently) that the iPhone will be 3G in 60 days.

As 9to5Mac says …

As someone who regularly gets to test Apple products way ahead of the public, he would know!

If that old theory about smoke and fire holds any weight, you’ve gotta start thinking lately there’s an awful lot of smoke in this direction …

Check out the 9to5Mac post HERE for a video clip of Mossberg’s quote.  It’s a bit of a long video - so look for the 3G comment at around the 6:55 mark of it.

Yipee..This is my favourite game for me in the iPhone.It is from the website Adiku.com.In this version 1.1 itself pool is beginning to look nice and very addictive to play.
Given below are the few things that can be improved:
A few things that I think could be improved in future versions are:

* It would be nice if your point of view moved around as you select different balls to shoot at - right now it stays rooted to the top end of the table where you first hit the break, even if you are lining up a shot down at the opposite end coming back up to a top pocket.
* An option to save a game is needed.
* It also should have an option to bomb out of a game where nothing is falling, and start a new one from within the app - instead of having to go all the way out of the app and back in in order to get a new.

Pool is in Installer now - though you’ll need to add the Adikus source in order to see it. The source address to add is: http://touchrepo.com/repo.xml.

Did you see the photo above.Those are the new portable speakers for iPhone from DLO. This one prevents the TDMA interference produced by iPhone,so you dont have to put it in the AIRPLANE mode while using it.

Description of the speakers from the manufacturers:

The speakers come with a removable, rotating stand that can hold the iPhone upright or horizontally - for all your movie-viewing pleasure. And these really are very portable - each speaker snaps in to the base to create a ball shape that’s approximately 6 inches in diameter.The base has a recessed area for cable management - and the speakers are powered via their AC adapter or AAA batteries. They will also work with any audio device that has a 3.5mm headphone jack.

The price seems to be some what costly.It is around 49.99usd.So if you wanna order one then you can go to this website.

Its true ,according to 9to5mac a major price cut for the iPhone and iTouch coming in the last week of February.

We just got a tip that Apple is planning on dropping the prices again on the iPhone and iPod line within the next month or two - perhaps at the late February event, perhaps as late as mid-April. Our tipster says that Apple will drop the prices $100 on both the iPod Touch and iPhone lines.

The predicted new set of prices includes $399 for a 16gb iPhone or the 32gb iPhone touch.The main reason for the new price cut is to pave the way for the maximum use of 3G phones by the end of this year.So if u wanna buy a new iPhone please wait for a couple of weeks and let the price to drop,then enjoy buying it.
