Yesterday was a very busy iPhone day for everyone. The iPhone 3G S was launched in Canada by Rogers and also around the world. Aside from all of these official hardware launches, we forgot to post some updates regarding the jailbreaking front. What is jailbreaking? It essentially will install Cydia, a repository that will allow...

"History repeats itself." That's one quote you hear over and over, and I think it's safe to apply this to yesterday's less than stellar iPhone 3G S launch by Rogers. Last year, Canadians lined up coast to coast to get their hands on the first ever iPhone launched in Canada. You would think Rogers would...

Today is the iPhone 3G S launch day in Canada and the USA. Rogers late last night dropped the bomb we were all waiting for--they finally released iPhone 3G S upgrade pricing (Fido too). Now, I don't understand the rationale of keeping this information till the last minute. Is it to keep their employees and...

We've been waiting to hear officially from Rogers regarding their iPhone 3G S pricing. Well, the wait is over as they sent out their "official" upgrade pricing details via twitter.

Around 10:15am PST, Apple FINALLY released the much anticipated firmware 3.0 update via iTunes! Many people stayed up last night to midnight thinking it would be released then, but were disappointed! Seems like Apple will release their updates when they want to! Anyways, my iPhone 3G is now being updated to firmware 3.0. I ran...

So last night the iPhone Dev Team demonstrated their soft unlock for the iPhone 3G running 3.0 firmware. With QuickPwn/PwnageTool updates coming shortly after 3.0 is released today, the iPhone 3G 3.0 carrier unlock, dubbed UltraSn0w will be available Friday. What Does This Mean for iPhone 3G Users? Here's a hypothetical situation iPhone 3G users...

There is so much iPhone excitement this week I can barely contain myself. Tomorrow is the official launch for iPhone OS 3.0 firmware and on Friday the iPhone 3GS will be available in stores. But tonight at 9PM, one of my favorite twitter desktop apps, TweetDeck, will be releasing their iPhone app for FREE in...

It seems as though every time there is a major iPhone announcement, Rogers is always the last to relay news to its customers. An example of this is when their own websites weren't even updated the day of the iPhone 3GS announcement, leaving Canadian iPhone customers in a frenzy. Lucky for you, there's iPhoneinCanada.ca with...

Tomorrow is the day iPhone OS 3.0 firmware is officially released! Talk about an exciting day that everyone has been anticipating for the longest time. On top of waiting for 3.0, people have been wondering about the state of the iPhone 3G carrier unlock. Well, yesterday the iPhone Dev Team addressed these concerns by announcing...
