Happy Valentine's Day! It looks like Apple is taking a stance to get the PR machine rolling to denounce jailbreaking your iPhone. News broke yesterday that Apple has submitted documents to the US Copyright Office stating that jailbreaking our iPhones is DMCA violation and copyright infringement, which essentially makes it illegal. This was posted on...

Every time there the smell of a product line update in the air, leaked images of the "next" Apple product pops online. There are rumors the next generation iPhone could be released this June. When the rumor mill starts pumping, the pictures start flowing. Yesterday, iPod Observer and MacRumors posted pictures of the casing of...

Is your iPhone jailbroken yet? If it's not, then after checking out the review of this upcoming 3rd party app, you're going to want to. The program is called xGPS by Xwaves, and it's a turn-by-turn GPS for the iPhone. This app will now give us real time voice GPS navigation! Right now, 1.1 is...

Twitter is one of the fastest growing social networks out there. If you're not sure what Twitter is, then start asking around! In a nutshell it's about following a whole bunch of strangers (in other words stalking) and interacting with them. It sounds strange, but it's highly addicting. Watch this: There are some amazing Twitter...

How do you transfer pictures off your iPhone? Do you use iPhoto on your Mac or just copy them off the phone on your PC? One way to wirelessly get pics off is to email photos to yourself. Or you can try some Flickr applications out there. The day before yesterday on Twitter I tweeted...

The Apple iPhone headphones are very functional headphones that get the job done. They won't please audiophiles out there, but for the rest of us they are just fine. One of my favorite features is the mic/button that lets you control music (even on my MacBook!) and have conversations. A couple weeks ago I noticed...

If you've been following me on Twitter, you may have noticed that there has been some debate recently with Stephen Fung from FutureLooks.com. Stephen was going to purchase an iPhone 3G, until he walked into Rogers and fell in love instantly with a BlackBerry Bold, and ended up buying that instead. Jeez, poor guy hehe...

Looks like the Google team is at it again with their non-stop "iPhone-optimized" web pages! Their hard work is good news for the rest of us. Just yesterday they announced an optimized page for Google Books. This essentially turns your iPhone into an eBook reader, and will allow you to search their extensive database of...

Hey dudes and dudettes, it's been long overdue but here are the winners of our Day 9 Blog Anniversary Giveaway of copies of Tweetie and Scribbles. Some people didn't tell me what they wanted so it looks like it might be a surprise (I should've made the instructions include your choice). Congrats to the following...

Remember when Canada did not have the iPhone? The only way to get your hands on an iPhone was to buy one from the USA and bring it back to unlock. Jailbreaking and unlocking during those days were a lot harder than it was compared to today. Anyways, in recent news, Etisalat in the United...

I am a huge Google fan, and use many Google services such as Gmail and Google Reader. Many of these services are optimized for the iPhone, such as the Google search, Google Reader, Gmail, and previously iGoogle. Well, it looks like the Google team made up for the loss of the iPhone-optimized iGoogle homepage by...

We've covered a few different ways to enjoy streaming radio on your iPhone so far. Such notable examples include FlyCast, Astral Media (for listening to Virgin Radio 95.3), and TEAM 1040 via FStream. In the comments of my TEAM 1040 post from days ago, user Bruce posted about the new FREE Corus Radio App for...
