The iPhone HD: Real or Fake?

The iPhone HD: Real or Fake?

You have to chuckle at how the entire blogosphere is losing sleep over some leaked images of what is supposedly the next generation iPhone. The pics came from a phone found on the floor of a San Jose bar and Engadget was the first to post them. As soon as they did, the uproar began. Is it really true or is this just some cheap Chinese knockoff? First, these pictures were widely accepted as being real, and we were all a little disappointed as the phone in the pictures just was not as sleek as what we imagined. Then, yesterday, it was determined that these pictures were actually just some Chinese knockoff, which caused a sigh of relief throughout the Twittershere.

Real Racing for iPhone App Review – As Real As It Gets

Real Racing for the iPhone has some of the best graphics that I have ever seen in on a mobile device, and is incredibly fun as well. This is really where the iPhone shines, compared to various other smartphones that can’t run anything even close to it. Although it carries a hefty price tag, at $4.99, it really is one of my favorite racing titles on my phone.

Opera Mini Approved for iPhone: Developers Scratch their Heads

Opera Mini Approved for iPhone: Developers Scratch their Heads

The entire tech community is a little confused and pleasantly surprised today to discover that Opera Mini, the mobile browser with over 50 million users across platforms has just been approved by Apple. This is a clear change in policy on Apple’s part, at least from where I am sitting. Opera is an alternative browser to the iPhone’s built-in Safari the same way Google Talk is an alternative to the iPhone’s phone app. Yet, for some reason Google Talk along with thousands of other apps were rejected by Apple and Opera was approved. In all fairness, I will say that Opera claims they did everything by the book to adhere to Apple’s strict rules, but that still does not change the fact that Opera competes with Safari.
