iPhone Factory Worker Photos Found On New iPhone

Wednesday 20 August 2008 @ 11:57 am

Some new iPhone users have reported finishing activating their new phones to find.. a picture of a strange woman with an even stranger hat? Or at least thats what one member of the MacRumor forums is reporting. After syncing it for the first time in iTunes his lock screen background he found out was a a photo of one of the iPhone factory workers. This is not the first case of photos coming pre-loaded onto new iPhone 3G's but it is one of the first to have 1. a person, and 2. the lock screen photo changed. What say you readers? Have you had a similar experience?

iPhone Test Speeds Fall Significantly After 2.0.2 Release

Wednesday 20 August 2008 @ 11:23 am

iphone_infoscrn1.pngStatistics at Test My iPhone show that speeds for iPhones tested in the past 24 hours are significantly lower than the averages indicated in tests done prior to the release of 2.0.2 firmware.

Over nearly 600,000 total speed tests made at the site, the average download speed registered is 2227.93 kbps, while in tests made over the past 24 hours the average is just 1429.31 kbps.
Apple released 2.0.2 firmware for the iPhone a couple of days ago with cryptic release notes indicating “bug fixes.” By yesterday afternoon, however, it seemed the company may be playing whack-a-mole with some issues, including widely reported 3G reception problems, and that disaffected users may be waiting until September for another shot at stable functionality across the iPhone product line.

Steve Jobs has written some users, admitting that up to 2% of the iPhones out there could be suffering from “a known iPhone bug” that crashes 3rd party apps and will be fixed in the promised September 2.1 firmware release.

One thing is certain, with millions of iPhones now in the stream of commerce and credible expectations of Apple selling another several million in the next four months, if things are really broken the problem will soon move beyond a couple hundred complaints on Apple’s support forum.

iPhone Hitting India At $700

Wednesday 20 August 2008 @ 10:37 am

While Steve Jobs promised a price point near $199 for the iPhone 3G, we have since seen that to not be the case. On one end of the spectrum you have O2 in the UK practically giving them away; on the other you have India's iPhone provider Vodafone announcing that they will be selling the entry level 8gb iPhone for 31,00rs or bake stateside $712. The 16gb $299 iPhone sees a $130 dollar increase over the entry level for $830 or 36,100rs. The reason? Vodafone won't be subsidizing the cost on the iPhone 3G, all the while there's no 3G network running in India to support the higher speeds anyhow.
