AppleYou remember the I Am Rich application, right? Of course you do, it’s the one we told you about last week. As horribly lame as it was, it ended up teaching us quite a bit. No, seriously. First of all, it taught us that Apple will seemingly approve any app out there so that it [...]
Instead of hunting down people left and right, we figured why not post this here… We’re looking to create an OpenGL-based multi-level iPhone game which will make full use of the accelerometer. We’re talking heavy 3D graphics, a lot of OpenAL audio, and some other stuff. Think you’ve got what it takes? We’d love to [...]
This, people, is a smart service. Schmap, provider of interactive online maps with guide and tourism info, has just pushed an innovative iPhone-friendly solution into public beta. The service allows users to quickly and easily publish iPhone-friendly contact details with a map on their websites. When we say “Quickly and easily” we mean it. First [...]
If you’ve been waiting for the public release of Qik’s streaming video service for your iPhone, you’re in luck….though there is a serious caveat. The company has launched its mobile video application for all to use, but it’s only available through installer.app running on OS 1.1.4. What this means, effectively, is that the only people [...]
Apple alluded to several upcoming product refreshes in its recent earnings report conference call, and if these rumors hold true, it looks like the Cinema Display line could be amongst the first to go under the knife. Macrumors is reporting that Apple will be releasing a new line of Cinema Displays, possibly to coincide with [...]
Are you an iPhone developer who wants to make some serious cash? Write an app that identifies people who have purchased “I Am Rich” and then integrate with Google Maps to display their exact locations*. Developer Armin Heinrich (and we hesitate to call him a “developer”) has made his mark on Apple App Store history [...]
Yesterday we gave you a taste of Stevo’s apologetic internal email to his troops regarding the mess that is MobileMe. As you recall, Jobs essentially states that Apple screwed the pooch in rushing the service out when it was most certainly not ready for prime time. The email has since been leaked in its entirety [...]
While yesterday’s 2.0.1 firmware update for Apple’s iPhone seems to be providing users with an added level of stability and responsiveness, it looks like at least one subset of iPhone users has been left a bit less than satisfied. Some users that paid the requisite fee to have their Vodafone-branded handset unlocked for international roaming [...]
It looks like an internal email from El Jobso to Apple employees it quite telling with regards to the current MobileMe situation. What is the MobileMe situation? It’s not good. We’re sure you’ve ready about the many, many problems that many, many people are having with the service. You’ve also likely read that people are [...]
We’re downloading it now, but woweee, it’s 250MB! Anyone care to comment? Even with all the languages included the biggest build we’ve ever seen was around 210MB…
Post will be updated
Ok, so far we’ve found 2.0.1 to be extremely more stable. This includes fixing the keyboard lag some users experienced, a speedier OS in general, and [...]
We’re pretty big fans of Colorware’s excellent customization service here at BGR, so you can imagine our delight when they gave us the heads up this morning. Coloware has just announced that their patented coloration process is now available for the iPhone 3G. Their custom design studio allows you to apply a unique combination of [...]
AT&T has just quietly let slip plans to extend their period of exclusivity on the iPhone for an extra year. Original scheduled to expire in 2009, the company will now spend an extra year as the exclusive distributor of the Apple iPhone in the United States. AT&T’s head honcho Randall Stephenson noted that the iPhone [...]
Everyone’s talking about NetShare, a new application that just hit the App Store but was subsequently pulled very shortly after. It created a Wi-Fi hotspot on the iPhone, allowing your computer or other devices to use that oh-so-precious 3G connect without AT&T’s approval. But, I’d like to put you on to what possibly could be [...]
