The company designated as Apple’s only (so far) retailer and service provider in China says that they expect that the iPhone will attract a 10 percent market share of China’s 3G users.

For awhile there, it seemed like Palm and Apple would go back and forth, enabling and then disabling direct Pre + iTunes syncing for a good long time. Now, with Palm licking its wounds and PsyStar likely down for the count, Cupertino seems to be running out playmates.

Ma Bell has been getting spanked by Verizon’s highly effective TV advertising campaign and now the courts have, at least for the time being, refused to give the carrier any relief either. But now AT&T has hit back with a TV spot of their own.

Recent rumors have pointed to a “worldmode” iPhone sometime next year, which would mean Verizon network compatibility. Today, we get independent, if off-handed, confirmation that the mothership is at least talking with the chipset maker at the center of this tantalizing possibility.

After years of obstacles being placed in the way by local lawmakers at the behest of South Korean handset manufacturers, Apple is finally going to be allowed to sell the iPhone there.

A number of authoritative reports are saying that South Korean cellular regulators [...]

Swine Flue worries gotcha feeling blue? Then you shouldn’t leave the house again until you’ve armed yourself with at least one of these powerful and/or funny (think gallows humor) apps for your iPhone or iPod touch, some free and some not so much.

The holiday travel season is upon us here in the United States, but thanks to free applications on the iPhone and iPod Touch, that annual nightmare can be made just a tiny [...]

There are some clues lurking about that Apple may be thinking about getting into the computer game business, following up on the newfound popularity of the iPhone and Touch as gaming platforms.

During the summer at a major event billed primarily as [...]

Apple’s serious about mobile gaming — the company’s newest iPhone and iPod touch models include best of class ARM processors, a good bit o’ RAM and richly detailed OpenGL graphics. Moreover, Cupertino’s been kitting out its in-house iPhone game development team with Graeme Devine of Halo Wars fame already onboard.

Desperate times call for desperate measures and Ma Bell sure looks desperate now. Their belated response to Verizon’s “there’s a map for that” advertising campaign is wimpy in the extreme as it delivers statistics in textual form only about how complete its 3G + EDGE, which can charitably be referred to as [...]

Sometime next week, what is arguably the most overpriced app for the iPhone (TomTom) will add a very basic feature for its genre (pronounced street names). Should we be excited?

There probably has not been an app for the iPhone [...]

Fresh news from the alternate universe inhabited by the mothership’s App Store grannies and developers — the guy behind the most popular app on the platform is quitting in disgust. It seems that the review process and the people behind it are tools of the devil.

In what could be seen as at least a minor surprise, it was announced earlier this week that some Radio Shack stores will soon begin selling the iPhone, both the 3G and 3GS models.

Radio Shack will soon join a very small group [...]

Motorola purportedly supplied Verizon with 200,000 units and an analyst estimates the carrier sold, it’s huge network and all, only half of those. This compares quite poorly with the 1 million iPhone 3GS’ Apple sold over the first weekend back in June, months before anyone was willing to say the recession was over.

When Apple announced the third generation iPod touch in September, many were disappointed that the device didn’t include a camera. A little of that sentiment is perhaps evident in a fresh rumor that the motherships plans, despite the fact that Phil Schiller has publicly announced that the company’s holiday line up is set, [...]
