iPhone 3G disappoints
June 9th, 2008
As promised earlier, the new iPhone 3G has finally been announced by Steve Jobs at the Apple WWDC Developers Conference in San Francisco. The key features the new iPhone brings to the table are integrated a-GPS, 3G, and a cheaper price. And, er, that’s it! To be fair, Apple have also released an updated iPhone interface (called, somewhat unsurprisingly, iPhone 2.0), but given that it’s also available as a download for existing iPhones, it’s not exactly fair to claim this as part of the new phone, any more than Nokia’s new mapping application (yup, Nokia Maps 2.0) makes the N95 a brand new phone.

iPhone 2 release spoiled by Samsung i900 Omnia
June 9th, 2008
Just as Apple fanboys are being whipped into hysteria over the iPhone 2 with an expected announcement at 6pm this evening at the Apple WWDC Developers Conference, Samsung comes along and dumps all over their party with the announcement of the Samsung i900 Omnia.
Now Samsung announcing a new phone is nothing new; indeed, the Korean manufacturer has so many phones in its line-up it seemingly announces one every day.
But the Samsung i900 Omnia is different from the rest. With a 3.2″ haptic touchscreen interface, 7.2Mbps HSDPA connectivity, built-in GPS and Wi-Fi, and a gloriously updated touchscreen interface, it’s nothing less than Samsung’s very own iPhone 2 challenger.
Has it got what it takes to take on the latest Apple Jesus-phone? Find out after the jump…
Leaked pics of the iPhone 2, announcement later today
June 9th, 2008
The iPhone 2 is due to be announced later today at the Apple WWDC Developer’s Conference. Of course, Apple haven’t officially announced that the iPhone 2 will be presented at the conference, but it’s an open secret that it will be on display, and given that there are no more stocks left of the original 8GB iPhone in either the US or the UK, Apple need to release it real soon if they’re to keep the momentum going for their famed Jesus Phone.
Quite what we have to look forward to isn’t yet known, but these leaked photos (or fakes? We’ll know later today) give us something of a taste for what we can expect.
