    Review: iPhone 4

    The iPhone 4 has to be one of the most popular products of the year, up there with the iPad. Today I'm going to both tell you about my buying experience and give you an un-biased review. I woke up at about 5 a.m. the day of the iPhone 4's launch and walked over to my neighborhood Apple Store. As I had already pre-ordered the phone, I didn't expect there to be that long of a line. But boy, was I wrong. By 6:45 ...

Every once in a while, you run in to an iPhone app that is just plain awesome. That’s what happened to me yesterday. App development company Tap Touch Click just released their first iPhone app, Simple Drive to the app store. The app costs $.99, which for what it does, is a bargain.

The product runs for $24.99 from Zagg.com, however I More >

Steve announced that because they simply can’t make enough Bumpers, iPhone 4 owners will be given the choice between a select amount of cases to receive free of charge.
