I’m a big fan of the Telegraph and Sky news iPhone apps, both offer a great breadth of coverage for free. But they have a new rival in the guide of the Guardian’s new paid-for app (asking price £2.39) which launched today.
Two great new apps have found their way to my iPhone in recent days. First up is an updated version of the Telegraph newspaper’s app which now boasts access to photo galleries, Twitter trending keywords and, most importantly, a faster user interface.
I don’t understand is why a respected, groundbreaking manufacturer such as RIM would decide to play ‘me too’ with a handset designed for just about anybody but RIMs high level corporate users.
A couple of weeks back I was sent a preview of iGoLoco, a new listings app now available in the iPhone app store.
Just a day after Apple tore up their exclusive contract with O2 for the sale of their iPhone, the US giant has announced a deal with Vodafone.
News that Vodafone is to stock the handset from “early 2010″ follows yesterday’s announcement that Orange is set to sell both the 3G and 3GS models despite widespread speculation [...]
I’m really pleased with my iPhone, it does everything I want it to for personal use (but not for work, see here for my thoughts on HTC’s Hero) but it has one weak link – O2’s dreadful 3G service.
I live in central London but my phone is often slipping into sub-3G connectivity, around the home [...]
Suffering from flu I’ve been passing way my time playing the addictive Waterslide iPhone app, possibly the best piece of mobile marketing I’ve ever seen.
A lot of people have been excitedly touting the new HTC Hero as an iPhone killer but I’m not convinced.It has an obvious advantage over the iPhone in that it’s going to be available in the UK from both Orange and T-Mobile, but although it’s not quite as ugly as the G1, it retains that dreadful ‘chin’ from the earlier model and still looks functional rather than stylish.
Like probably most other iPhone users I consider O2’s to tethering charges more than a little greedy but when my T-Mobile broadband failed earlier today I thought I’d give O2 a try so I could at least compare the two.
The resulting conversation didn’t go well, first I was told it’s impossible to add tethering ‘same [...]
It’s clear there’s a lot of people unhappy at the upgrade policy of O2 for the iPhone 3G. The network currently wants everyone with an iPhone 3G to pay off their current contracts if they want to upgrade to one of the new 3Gs models. I say ‘currently’ because it seems the UK launch is being marred by some pretty negative headlines and I can’t help but think Apple will soon step in and a change of heart will be announced.
