I am sure that you have seen counterfeit Apple iPhones (and iPods) floating about on Craigslist, eBay, and perhaps even on the streets, depending on where you live. All of these fakes originate from China or Taiwan, and it is no wonder since copyright laws are nearly impossible to enforce in these nations. Also, since the iPhone uses mostly Taiwanese parts, assembling a knock-off in that very place is an easy job for crooks. More »

Rogers Wireless is no longer the exclusive provider of the iPhone in Canada as Bell Canada and Telus announced today that they will both start carrying the iPhone 3G and 3GS this November. This seems to be slowly becoming a trend, since other countries already have iPhones available on multiple carriers.

In a somewhat surprising news, a new survey says the iPhone 3GS was the top selling phone in July after its release in June. The survey, conducted by Japanese Research Company GfK’s Japanese Subsidiary, had the 32GB iPhone 3GS as the most popular phone in Japan, while the 16GB ranked 9th in contract phones.

This is very surprising news considering Japan is always thought of as a leader in advanced mobile communications, design and infrastructure and the iPhone seemed to lack many features Japanese phones already had. iPhone 3GS has brought to Japan what the original iPhone and 3G lacked, a better camera with video recording capability and faster 3G service, which may be the reason for the popularity. Will the iPhone 3GS stay on top as the most popular phone, that’ll be something to keep an eye on in the upcoming months. The two iPhones weren’t the only phones to do well during the month of July, here’s the other 8 cell phones from the list of top 10 most popular phones in Japan. More »

The success of the iPhone 3GS might be spurring a new feature in upcoming iPods, a video camera. According to inside reports at TechCrunch, Apple has ordered a massive amount of cheap cameras, similar to the ones included in the iPhone 3GS.

The TechCrunch source says they know it’s for the iPod because of the size of the order. Only iPod parts could be ordered in so many. Apple couldn’t realistically sell that many iPhones within the year. More »

Since the release of the iPhone 3GS, it’s been dissected, literally to see its specs and the hardware inside. In the process, it’s been reported that the iPhone 3GS has the hardware to support shooting 720p HD videos but Apple decided against it.

We’re going to assume it’s because of the battery factor. It’ll suck up battery faster than we can finish recording an hour of video, the same reason Flash is still not implemented in the Safari browser or so Apple says. More »
