The iPhone 3G is unlocked!

We all knew it was just a matter of time…the hackmasters behind the iPhone Dev Team have been hard at work since the day the iPhone 3G was released to unshackle it from the carrier constraints of AT&T. Now it looks like a successful hack is finally complete, with a promise of a free unlocking program available to the masses by December 31. Apparently the hack will only work on jailbroken phones with firmware 2.11 and below. Just a word …

Review: Power Support AirJacket for iPhone 3G

The night we bought our iPhones, it was too late to go anywhere else in the mall and get cases for them.  I was pretty nervous about carrying around my naked iPhone even until the next morning.  I really like keeping my phone or my iPod in a case to make sure that it suffers the least amount of damage possible from daily use, keys in my purse or pocket, or (heaven forbid) even dropping it on the very rare …

My Daily Tech: Jessica

One of my favorite tech memes is “What’s In Your (Gear) Bag?”, where geeks empty their messenger bags, backpacks, and purses to show off the things they carry with them on a daily basis.  I also really enjoy reading about the gear that fellow techies use to enrich their lives–their main computer, their travel items, their phone, their mp3 player, etc.  I’ve shared my own stuff in various formats before (I am an avid member of the “What’s In Your …

iPhone Wrap-Up: Week One with the Preciousss

So, the 31 iPhone posts didn’t exactly pan out as planned.  My husband and I had some real life stuff crop up that was just more important than the Internet, and I’ve been on a big project at work that has required a lot of time dedicated to it.  But despite the lack of posting, the countdown to iPhone was still going on.  We sent each other emails throughout the month of August…”25 days until iPhone!”  “Two weeks until we …

31 Days to 3G iPhone – Day 30: My Biggest iPhone Disappointment

Not to be a downer, but there’s one thing I just don’t like about the iPhone OS. On my Windows Mobile phone, I have a tendency to keep open a lot of programs–my email, an eBook in the reader software, Pocket Informant with my calendar and tasks, Tiny Twitter (a great WM Twitter program!), and sometimes a few others. If I’m stuck somewhere with nothing to do, I’ll usually have my IM program pulled up in the background in case …

31 Days to 3G iPhone – Day 31: A Case, Of Course!

After a year of waiting, tech jealousy, back and forth decisions, surreptitious fondling of floor models, and near theft of friend’s phones, my husband and I are finally taking the plunge and moving over to AT&T when our T-Mobile contract is up on August 31. Despite recent reports of cracks in the plastic, we each plan on getting a white 16GB iPhone 3G. To celebrate our upcoming iPhone Liberation Day, I will be making an iPhone-related post each day. After …
