When Steve Jobs first announced iAds for all iOS 4 devices, I wanted nothing to do with them, and now, a month or two later, I feel the exact same way. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for supporting developers, but I don’t want ads on my phone, it’s as simple as that. Unfortunately, one way [...]

iPhone 4 confirmed to have twice as much RAM as iPad/iPhone 3GS

If you thought your iPhone 3GS or brand new iPad were blazing fast, then you ain’t seen nothing yet.

Canada, France (and UK) to receive unlocked iPhone 4’s

You read right, in somewhat of a bold move, Apple has decided to no longer restrict French, Canadian (and UK) iPhone 4 users to a single (or select) GSM carrier(s).

iPhone 4: AT&T pre-orders completely sold out

Boy Genius Report confirms that AT&T has depleted its stock of pre-order iPhone 4’s in what AT&T is calling its “busiest online sales day in AT&T history.” If the iPhone 4 launch is anything like the iPhone 3G and 3GS launches, then it’s going to be pretty difficult for a good number of people to [...]
