Latest iPhone News & Reviews:
Free iPhone 3G firmware has FM radio support
Reports from users in possession of the latest free iPhone 3G firmware indicate that the device will have support for both FM radio and FOTA (firmware over the air).
FM radio support means that the free iPhone 3G may be able to make use of devices like Apple’s own “iPod Radio Remote,” which includes an FM tuner and allows users to listen to FM radio stations. Current free iPhone and free iPod touch models are incompatible with the radio remote.
Firmware over the air support means that Apple will theoretically be able to deliver software and firmware updates over the free iphone 3g cellular network connection, potentially allowing re-locking of unlocked devices and feature enhancements that do not require connection to a host computer.

United Airlines makes free iPod, free iPhone promise
U.S. air carrier United Airlines has followed Singapore Airlines to offer free iPod and free iPhone connectivity in business class for international flights.
The carrier has begun to re-fit its fleet of aircraft with new entertainment systems that allow passengers to plug in (and recharge) their free iPod or free iPhone in-flight, enabling them to watch video or listen to music held on the device using the aircraft's existing entertainment system and 15-inch video screen.
The first aircraft with free iPod Touch and free 3g iPhone connectivity left Washington, D.C. for Zurich yesterday, the carrier confirmed. United's entire fleet of international, widebody aircraft are being reconfigured over the next two years with iPod and iPhone connectivity in first and business class. The technology was developed by Panasonic Avionics Corporation.
"The free iPod and free iPhone have become essential for millions of travelers around the world," said Greg Joswiak, Apple's vice president of free iPod & free iPhone product marketing. "We think United customers are going to love being able to listen or watch personal music and video content on their free iPod or free iPhone via the in-flight entertainment system, and we can't wait for United to roll this out to their fleet."

Jailbreak Your free iPhone or free iPod touch in Under a Minute
If you've been waiting for Apple to officially open the free iPhone and free iPod touch for development, you may have been disappointed to find out that you won't get third-party applications until June. That means that if you've been aching for those killer third-party apps already available to folks with jailbroken free iPhones or free iPod, you've still got a few more months of waiting to go. However, by downloading and running one simple application, you could be up and running with a jailbroken free iPhone or free iPod touch in just under a minute. Sound appealing? Here's how it works.
The Special Sauce is Z free iPhone
The application that does all the heavy lifting for you is a free, open source, cross-platform application called Z free iPhone, and it can do everything from quick and simple free iPhone and free iPod touch jailbreaks to unlocking the free iPhone for unofficial carriers (i.e., not AT&T). I'm going to cover the very basic jailbreaking of the free iPhone and free iPod touch, but the process is the same no matter what device you're jailbreaking and what level of unlocking you want.
When you're done using Z free iPhone you'll be running a jailbroken free iPhone or free iPod touch with the latest 1.1.4 firmware. Since using Z free iPhone is so simple, the purpose of this post is more to demonstrate just how easy it is to jailbreak and run those third-party apps until Apple finally gives its official, official blessing in June.
Prepare Your free iPhone or free iPod touch for Jailbreak
First, let's talk preparation. If you're working with a fresh, up-to-date device, there's really nothing to it—you're ready to proceed to the next step. If you've already jailbroken your phone once before—especially a 1.1.3 free iPhone jailbreak using one of the older methods—then you should restore your free iPhone or free iPod touch to the latest factory firmware (1.1.4) before continuing. When you restore, tell iTunes that want to set up the restored free iPhone as a new phone rather than restoring the settings from the previously jailbroken phone. (I can't speak for the free iPod touch on this front, but the first time I used Z free iPhone on my previously jailbroken free iPhone without taking this step, the jailbreak resulted in some bugs.)
Now that you're working with a fresh device, it's time to move on to the easy part: jailbreaking.
Now head to the Z free iPhone blog and click through on the "Click here to Download Z free iPhone" link to grab the latest Windows or Mac version.
Once you download Z free iPhone, you're ready to go. When you run the application, you'll see a window like the one of the two images to the left. (The first one is the Windows version, the second is the Mac version. Click the image for a larger view.)
The simple jailbreaks (that is, the ones that don't unlock your free iPhone for other cell phone carriers) starts with chosing the option that applies to you: free iPod touch jailbreak or free iPhone jailbreak. Z free iPhone will cycle your device into recovery mode, perform the jailbreak, and in 45 seconds your free iPhone or free iPod touch will be officially and completely jailbroken.
Now you can go through iTunes, set up, and sync the device just as you would if it were fresh out of the box. (Just remember not to restore your old settings if you were using a 1.1.3 jailbroken free iPhone.) When you head to your home screen for the first time, you'll notice two new icons: the Installer.app icon—which is the application that allows you to install the best free iPhone apps currently available—and a web clip icon that will take you to the Z free iPhone homepage (which you can remove if you don't want it).
Should I Jailbreak with Zfree iPhone if I've Already Jailbroken?
If you've already jailbreakon your free iPhone or free iPod touch, there's no hugely compelling reason to do it again with Z free iPhone. However, I had been using a 1.1.3 jailbreak on my free iPhone prior to jailbreaking with Z free iPhone, and the Z free iPhone jailbreak did fix the common Google Maps faux-GPS problem. Additionally, it's always good to run the latest firmware if and when you can, jailbroken or not.
That's all there is to it. Simple, quick, and effective. If you've been dying to run more apps on your free iPhone or free iPod but the long wait until June is more than you can stomach, jailbreaking your device is easier than ever with Z free iPhone. (Okay, maybe not quite as easy as the one-click jailbreak for 1.1.1, but still really easy).
If you're rocking a Z free iPhone jailbroken free iPhone or free iPod touch or a device you jailbroke using another method, let's hear more about your experience in the comments.

3g iPhone Unlocking to be Exterminated?
Grab your free Apple iPhone - visit Simply Free iPhone right now!
Latest iPhone News & Reviews:
Apple took a different business model for the free iPhone 3G. As per the new business model, the cellular carrier will provide the iPhone at a subsidized price, make-up the cost in monthly charges and don’t provide a chunk of their revenues to Apple. Previously, the customer had to pay the full retail price of the iPhone and carriers had to funnel their some their revenues to Apple.
What if you buy an iPhone 3G and unlock it? Since cellular carriers have subsidized the phone, every unlocked iPhone is a potential lose in revenue for them. According Crave’s source, Brits who walk into O2 stores to purchase iPhone will have to sign-up a contract before they can actually see the iPhone.
This means the only possible way to get an free 3g iPhone without being tied into the contract is by opting for pay-as-you-go (prepaid) options. The plans and pricing of such a prepaid scheme has not been announced yet, but it will definitely cost a little extra.
Moreover, the App Store will be launched in July and probably unlocked iPhone users won’t be able to lay their hands on the third party software, which are available. To add more fire to the business, iPhone is coming to 70 countries. In the past, people living in these countries had no other choice but to buy unlocked free iPhone. Unlocked iPhones will lose their appeal and that puts the whole unlocked iPhone business at risk.

3G iPhone announced by Apple

3G iPhone announced by Apple
Thinner iPhone on show at WWDC
Source: http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk
Apple boss Steve Jobs has officially announced the free 3G iPhone at the Worldwide Developers' Conference (WWDC). The free 3G iPhone will be available for $199 in the US, is thinner at the edges than the first generation iPhone, features sold metal buttons and the same screen as the original.
Jobs said the free 3G iPhone is "amazingly zippy", claiming that download speeds approach those that can be achieved with Wi-Fi. Two other smartphones were used to demonstrate the iPhone's speed superiority - the Nokia N95 and Treo 750, and Apple claimed the iPhone is 36 percent faster than them.
And the 3G capabilities won't hurt battery life, Apple claims. The 3G iPhone will last for 300 hours of standby time, while 2G talk time is up to 10 hours (from 8 hours). On 3G talk time, while other phones have 3-3.5 hours, the iPhone has 5 hours of 3G talk time, Apple claims.
"That's actually a very large amount of 3G talk time. We're very proud of this," said Jobs.
Meanwhile, the 3G iPhone is capable of up to 5-6 hours of high-speed browsing, 7 hours of video and 24 hours of audio.
The 3G iPhone, which also features built-in GPS support, will be available in 22 countries, starting from July 11.
The iPhone first went on sale in the US last summer, and Jobs claimed today at WWDC that "it's widely believed that this is the phone that has changed phones forever." Apple sold 6 million iPhones in the first year

3g iPhone Rumours Frenzy

Latest iPhone News & Reviews:
3g iPhone Rumours Frenzy
The rumour mill is dizzy with speculation about what 'cool new stuff' Apple's iPhone will shortly be sporting, ahead of chief executive Steve Jobs's keynote at the annual Worldwide Developers Conference in San Francisco on Monday.
Source: http://news.zdnet.co.uk/
Rumoured tweaks include a front-facing camera for video calling, variations on form factor and GPS capability. There have even been reports doing the rounds on the internet of Apple filing a patent for solar cells that could be installed under the screen, opening up the possibility of an iPhone part-powered by green energy in the future.
But as consultancy Analysys Mason associate Mark Heath says, Apple knows how to keep its iPhone secrets fresh: "People talk about having GPS capability in there, perhaps a slightly changed device to make it more suitable, more robust for some users; it's all speculation at the moment so we'll just have to wait and see what it looks like."
One thing analysts and commentators are agreed upon, however, is that a 3G device is coming.
Peter Cunningham, senior analyst at analyst house Canalys, told ZDNet.co.uk's sister site, silicon.com: "I'd be very surprised if it wasn't the free 3G iPhone."
But the analyst is also holding out for a little extra from Jobs: "Apple has got a track record of being very innovative and a habit of surprising people so I'm certainly expecting it to be more than just a 3G iPhone — I'm certainly expecting something a little bit special."
Many industry watchers — and Mac co-founder Steve Wozniak — expressed disappointment when Apple chose to launch its mobile gambit via a mere Edge device, rather than going straight to the mobile superhighway of 3G.
Already speaking as if the second coming of iPhone has occurred, Dr Windsor Holden, principal analyst at Juniper Research, told silicon.com: "One of the key drawbacks of the old iPhone was you had this wonderful device for accessing the mobile internet but the speed at which it could be accessed once you moved away from the cloud was very limited indeed.
"And now you have the UMTS capabilities within that device I think it's got quite enormous potential to do very, very well."
Analysys Mason's Heath pointed out that iPhone users have already been sideloading content and utilising Wi-Fi to watch video on their handsets.
"3G is absolutely critical to give that extra distribution channel [to stream video outdoors] and allow you to offer a compelling service. And this is way before broadcasting networks and things like DVB-H come along, so we think that the iPhone could have a significant impact in the mobile TV market in the short term," he said.
According to Holden, the clearest sign a 3G device is imminent comes from an announcement today by Japanese mobile operator Softbank that it has signed an iPhone distribution deal with Apple.
He explained: "That's probably the biggest indication yet we're going to see the 3G iPhone very, very shortly. There was just no opportunity at all for them to offer a free 3G iPhone in Japan — given that 70-odd percent of people in Japan have a 3G handset."
Shipping a free iPhone 3G device therefore does more than just improve Apple's mobile hardware street cred: it opens doors to more markets worldwide. As Canalys' Cunningham points out: "Edge across the GSM networks or GSM operators is still pretty limited — predominantly it's 3G or HSPA networks now being rolled out now — so what 3G does [is] it provides compatibility with a far greater range of operators."
Other sure-fire tweaks on the way for iPhone 2.0 are the firmware updates Apple announced back in March, when it said it would be licensing Microsoft's ActiveSync protocol.

A thinner iPhone with 3G, double the memory and better battery life

A thinner iPhone with 3G, double the memory and better battery life
Source: www.venturebeat.com
How badly do you want a free 3G iPhone? How badly do you want one that is 22 percent thinner, with double the memory, GPS and better battery life?
That could the case if a tip Cult of Mac (a Wired Network Blog) received is to be believed.
We’re a week away from Apple chief executive Steve Jobs’ keynote at the the WWDC event where it is widely believed that he will announce the free 3G iPhone. Naturally the amount of rumors is going to increase as we draw closer, but one is supposedly coming from a programmer at a “major software publisher.”
Of note here is that all of these rumors have been reported before. And significantly, this is also the first time that the AT&T subsidizing the cheap iPhone in the United States rumor has been backed up by another source.
Also included in this tip is word that Apple is the one seeking to subsidize the phone to compete with the price of RIM’s Blackberry device. Previous reports had suggested that it was AT&T who had hope to put a price cut on the device.
This iPhone/Blackberry rivalry appears to be heating up as the free 3G iPhone draws near. In late April, word came out that RIM was looking for developers with Apple experience, presumably to help with a next-generation Blackberry. Then, last month RIM launched a new $150 million application developers fund to compete with Kleiner Perkins and Apple’s $100 million iFund. (Also see our Q&A on the RIM-Blackberry fund.)
If Apple launches a free 3G iPhone that is thinner, with double the memory and has a better battery life. Blackberry will need some kind of answer.
