Is Mr. Jobs Really Sure $1,000 Is a Fair Price for iPhone?

Svetlana Gladkova

A week ago, last Friday, Russian carriers and retailers started to officially sell iPhone in Russia so Russian people have been able to officially and legally buy the much-hyped Apple’s device for a week now. But unfortunately Apple can hardly claim any significant success in Russia because of a few reasons with the most aggravating one being the price that seems to be far from fair when you compare to what people around the world pay for the gadget.
The problem [...]

BlackBerry Officially In the Touch-screen Market

Svetlana Gladkova

Yesterday Research In Motion announced BlackBerry Storm that is obviously yet another direct competitor to Apple’s iPhone 3G.
The major disadvantage for BlackBerry Storm is that this phone lacks Wi-Fi support but there are other things where the new device is even stronger than iPhone, like removable battery, 3.2-megapixel camera, and cut-and-paste editing functionality.
Here I have compiled a table (based on the official specifications by manufacturers) to compare the new BlackBerry Storm with its main competitors - the already popular iPhone [...]

Twitter on the iPhone: Which App Will Rule Them All?

Cyndy Aleo-Carreira

The iPhone has developed the same culture of Twitteritis that the rest of the Web has in the two-and-a-half weeks since the launch of the App Store and the iPhone 3G . Everyone wants to build the perfect Twitter application, but with so many to choose from, which one do you choose?
Twitterific would seem to be the odds-on favorite to win. Already established on the desktop, the blue bird's move to the iPhone was both logical and expected. Not [...]

Advantage App Store: Two Paths to iPhone User Adoption

Cyndy Aleo-Carreira

One thing I quickly noticed when browsing the App Store, both in iTunes and on the iPhone, was that there seemed to be some bizarre method of listing the apps. I like finding things in neat categories and alphabetical order within the categories, but there seemed some anomalies in the sorting that placed apps out of order.
Apparently, some of the developers feel the same way that I do about success or failure being presence in the App Store, and also [...]

iPhone App Store: Eliminating the Competition

Cyndy Aleo-Carreira

I think the very first icon I clicked on my iPhone was the one for the App Store. After all the hype for the App Store, I wanted to know exactly what ELSE I could be doing with the phone besides what Apple intended.
Available through both the iPhone as well as the iTunes Store, the apps are sorted into categories for easier browsing, as well as other lists such as most recently added and most downloaded. Prices are clearly marked, [...]

My Husband Went to the Apple Store…

Cyndy Aleo-Carreira

… and all I got was this bricked iPhone.
You may have heard something or other about a phone that got released today? I didn't even go stand in line, bad tech blogger that I am, but my husband gleefully stood in line for nearly four hours to get his phone, and surprised me with one (even after my well-documented complaints) as well thanks to the largesse of a gift certificate that had been planned for the pre-3G phone pricing.
A summary [...]

Sipping the AT&T Haterade: Why the iPhone 3G May Not Win Fans

Cyndy Aleo-Carreira

Yesterday, I tuned in to no fewer than three liveblogs for the announcement of the phone I've been waiting for: the 3G iPhone. Last year I even replaced my Motorola RAZR at the unsubsidized price just so I could get the iPhone 3G when they finally came out with one, so yesterday's announcement had me darn near hysteria.
Today, however, the dust has settled. And Apple and AT&T may just have conspired to lose themselves a customer who was willing to [...]
