iPhone 3G Unlock (codename : yellowsn0w) is finally ready for general consumption with an anticipated release date of December 25 ~ 31 (Christmas — > New Year’s eve!). It is currently undergoing idiot proof GUI packaging for the total noobs! However, those users who accidentally upgraded to 2.2 firmware from iTunes have no other choice but to resort to x-Sim solutions or a possible baseband downgrade from 2.28 to 2.11 (hopefully).

After Steve Jobs’ failure to launch In-Ear Headphones with Remote and Mic by October 2008, these beauties are finally shipping for a whopping $79 (use Big Crumbs/Discover Card to save some money – upto 5% or use Big Crumbs and Microsoft cashback to save upto 32% once they are available on eBay) ! The worst thing being their incompatibility with the iPhone! Well, they are compatible with the iPhone but the unique Remote control feature (increasing/decresing volume) doesn’t work with iPhones (atleast till the release of the next revision of …

If you don’t have a land line at reach (users are migrating to cellular services, right!), how are you planning to call support services, be it Credit card, bank, UPS, Paypal, eBay or any company for that matter (which has a toll free number of course!)?
I am not much of a voice user on my Mobile phone, mostly data (3G will lets incoming calls hit your phone unlike EDGE which forwards your calls to Voicemail box!). I had to use support services frequently and I had a look at my …
3G, battery, iPhone 3G, Review »
Mophie Juice Pack is an absolute godsend given the fact that my iPhone 3G repeatedly gave up on me on numerous occassions. What good is all the technology if it cannot last for one day ( I mean 9 AM to 9PM at the least!) with regular usage (Emails, Camera, Apps, Safari, GPS) ? I started using the iPhone less frequently when I am on the go ( on a trip, …) trying to preserve the battery but doesn’t it defeat the purpose of owning the BEST gadget on planet …
