AT&T unlocks all but iPhone, Verizon customers want iPhone, no more iPhone 3G 8GB orders for AT&T
This is really a not surprising to me; Verizon customers want the iPhone according to an analyst. Research shows that 16.8% of all Verizon Wireless customers want the iPhone. That is a lot of people. AT&T has announced that it will allow customers to unlock any device that is offered on its network, except the iPhone. The announcement is the result of a class action lawsuit filed against the company. It appears that AT&T is getting set to remove the iPhone 3G in 8GB guise. Reports are coming in that there are no more orders for the 8GB iPhone 3G being placed. This could well be preparation for the new iPhone rumored for next month. View full post on iPhone Buzz

Popplet for iPad – App Review
Have you ever felt the need to visually share ideas or work concepts? Do you need a way to plan work or life events in a more organized way?
Many people spend more time planning a party rather than planning their lives. Primarily, because it is usually hard work to plan your life. If your life planning or work map becomes cluttered with too many goals, you should consider using mind-mapping techniques.
Mind-mapping apps can help you define your goal implementation plans, and also monitor and track your progress. So, why not try utilizing mind-mapping techniques to bring clarity and fun to the process?
I like the maps concept because it allows you to organize your thinking and wild ideas. Popplet is one of those apps that helps you organize and share your visual ideas. A “popplet” is a big pinboard that you can put “popples” onto. Following so far?
The app adds a place to your iPad where you can collect and curate your best ideas and random stuff all in one continuous visual space. A “popple” is a container that holds text and photos to help you identify your ideas and objects. The app can be used for many things in your personal, professional and educational lives:

A geek with a DIY passion and a 3D printer has created a iPhone case as dangerous as it is cool. The thing has the handle of a revolver sure to get you shot if you use it in front of a cop. An analyst claimed late last week that the iPhone would be landing at Verizon in November . We also heard last week that Sprint would be getting the device in September. I will believe it when I see it. A new version of Skype for the iPhone landed last week. The app is now at version 2.0.0 and gets 3G VoIP call capability. View full post on iPhone Buzz

AT&T promises tethering in OS 4, Jobs talks lost iPhone, Apple defends factory conditions
AT&T gave a bit of good news and bad news today. The carrier announced that it was ending unlimited data plans for the iPad and the good news was that the firm promised to support tethering in iPhone OS 4, the real question is how much it will cost.
Steve Jobs talked about many things at the D8 conference this week and one of them was the lost iPhone 4G prototype. Jobs said he was told to let it slide by a few people and then said, “When this whole thing with Gizmodo happened, I got a lot of advice from people that said you’ve got to just let it slide. You shouldn’t go after a journalist because they bought stolen property and tried to extort you. In addition, I thought about that and I decided that Apple can’t afford to change its core values and simply let it slide…I can’t do that. I’d rather quit.”
Jobs also stated at the D8 conference that Foxconn is not a sweatshop. Jobs still says that Apple reps are trying to figure out why 10 workers have killed themselves at a factory ran by Foxconn in China.

Fueled By the “iPad Effect”, iPhone OS Triples Android OS
Updated mobile market share numbers from research firm Nielsen were released last Friday, showing the Android OS market share losing ground against the iPhone OS. According to the report, iPhone OS powered devices are more than 3 times more popular than Android OS powered devices, with respectively 28% and 9% market shares of the smartphone market. Rim remains the leader of the segment, with a 35% market share, and Microsoft is still trailing Apple, with a 19% market share. Both Rim’s and Microsoft’s market share are declining (about 2% quarter over quarter), while Apple’s and Google’s market shares are steadily increasing (about 2% quarter over quarter as well) Note that these numbers do not take into account the iPad, since it is not considered a smartphone. However, it is clear that the “iPad effect” is helping Apple keep its top position on the consumer segment – Rim may be leader of the overall market, but the segment the firm targets is different than Apple’s. Interestingly enough, the report shows that Android and iPhone users are quite opinionated about their favorite OS, and are expected to remain loyal for the years to come. 80% of iPhone users plan to buy another iPhone OS device when it is time to upgrade, while 70% of Android users plan to purchase an Android OS powered device the next time they purchase a smartphone. These figures are at odds with RIM’s and Microsoft’s, with loyalty number as low as 47% and 34%, respectively. When Android OS tablets are launched, Google’s market share will likely see a boost as well, however, the gap between Apple and Google is not expected to shrink anytime soon.
