Rogers/Fido has made some recent changes to their Hardware Upgrade (HUP) policy regarding iPhones. Normally, existing customers had to be 12 months into their contract before becoming eligible for a HUP. Well, this caused a massive uproar and it seems Rogers has listened again and changed their policy. In order to be eligible for a...
The Dev Team finally released the Pwnage Tool 2.0.2 and it's ready to be downloaded. When I previously wrote about the Pwnage Tool being delayed, this is what's included in the latest release straight from the Dev Team's blog: Installer 4 Beta is included, it is added in any mode by default. The main installer...
Here's your funny iPhone App Store "story" of the day if you haven't heard about it already. Turns out recently there was an application called "I Am Rich" in the App Store selling for the bargain basement price of--get ready--$999.99! The program was created by Armin Heinrich and features a "secret mantra" that "may help...
The cat and mouse game continues again and again! The Dev Team has announced that the Pwnage Tool version 2.0.2 was going to be released yesterday. But they are delaying the release to include Installer 4! That means you'll be able to jailbreak your iPhone if you updated to 2.0.1 firmware via iTunes. However, an...
Ladies and gentlemen, more big savings are coming your way! By now you've probably read my reviews of ZAGG's invisibleSHIELD for the first gen iPhone and the iPhone 3G. With so many people out there snapping up iPhone 3G units from Rogers, consider getting a plastic thin shield to protect your iPhone. There are a...
The moment people buy their virgin first gen iPhones or iPhone 3G's, they need a case ASAP. I've tried silicone cases (which FAIL because dust/debris gets in behind, and actually harms your phone), leather cases, pouches, armored cases, etc. Out of all of these I still leave my iPhone protected by thin film protectors like...
FINALLY! Apple has a released their first update for firmware 2.0 today. I've been waiting for this for a long time. Ever since I've had my iPhone 3G it's been very slow, sluggish, and would reboot by itself automatically at randome times (FAIL!). The firmware version 2.0.1 update is roughly a 250MB download and will...
There are some rabid iPhone fans out there, but I know there are also rabid, foaming from the mouth iPhoneinCanada.ca fans too (I hope). Anyways, I got inspired by Ruffdeezy's previous post about adding a homescreen bookmark for his website. I thought that was a fantastic idea so I called up our top notch designer/illustrator...
Our fellow iPhoneinCanada.ca reader and top designer/illustrator Pierre Tabbiner created this little "image" for people who are trying to hold themselves off from buying an iPhone 3G. I was going to post it a while back but totally forgot. Anyways, if anyone is desperate enough to have this as their wallpaper to remind themselves, you...
Remember the days of owning a first generation iPhone, but having it come with 1.1.2 firmware? That time period was pretty painful for the folks who could only activate and jailbreak their iPhones and use them as "iPhone Touches". But, as with anything eventually an unlock came out through a "SIM solution". One that worked...
The week is almost over! Bring on the long weekend! Anyways, I thought I'd take a quick moment to summarize some of the interesting iPhone 3G headlines this past week. Let's take a quick gander shall we? Case of the iPhone 3G crackings: Is your iPhone 3G cracking anywhere? WinPwn 2.5 is coming out soon....
We have another accessory review coming your way today. I have quite the schedule of reviews that are lined up and ready to go, so get ready to be bombarded soon! Anyways, today we're going to take a quick look at the Griffin Streamline Ultimate sport armband for the iPhone 3G and iPod Touch! Griffin...
