A rumor debunked? I think not. A few days ago, news circulated that Apple has the power to switch off applications (which they’ve already paid for) from people’s iPhone 3Gs, if they deem the apps malicious.

I’m admittedly not interested in sports, so the only part of the Olympics I watched is the opening—and wow, what an opening that was!

No, you can’t exactly get an iPhone 3G from 3 Australia directly. They’re not yet authorized to distribute the coveted handset. However, there are ways to get unlocked iPhone 3G—either you hack it or buy an unlocked phone from Optus.

I’m admittedly not one of the most careful people on earth. Scratching a mobile phone’s display is practically second-nature to me; smashing it completely, a close second. Brando sheds a ray of hope for clumsy people like me who own an iPhone 3G.
