The world wide web is abuzz with the news of the leaked iPhone 4G that reached the hands of the people in Gizmodo. Then the whole Law Enforcement Officers slamming down door to raid the house of Jason Chen the Gizmodo Editor. It’s all blowing things out of proportion.

The 16GB model is only USD$10 more than the USD$489 kindle too! (more…)

The current iPhone 3Gs carries the identifier iPhone 2,1 while the original iPhone was identified as iPhone 1,1. the 3G model carries the identifier iPhone 1,2. (more…)
