Das Warten hat ein Ende: Steve Jobs hat heute auf der WWDC 2010 offiziell das neue iPhone 4 vorgestellt . Zunächst haben sich damit die Bezeichnungen iPhone 4G und iPhone HD beide als falsch herausgestellt. Alles andere war wir bereits über das neue iPhone 4 erfahren haben, hat allerdings gestimmt. So entspricht das Design des iPhone 4 genau dem, welches bereits bei den Bildern des Prototyps von Gizmodo zu sehen war.
Here is the original:
iPhone 4 mit OS 4: ab 15. Juni bei T-Mobile vorbestellen, ab 24. Juni kaufen – Preise unbekannt
One thing modern technology and being a gadget freak brings is lots of monthly bills. iPhone, Netflix, Satellite, home internet. When you think about it, it seems we are being nickel and dimed to death with monthly charges. Being a father of two and earning a meager wage, the addition of more of these monthly charges is not an option. There are many new mobile internet devices that look compelling, but I never can work the monthly fees into my budget. Enter Virgin Mobile’s Broadband2Go. Virgin Mobile was kind enough to send me a Broadband2Go Wireless USB Modem to try out. The big difference in the Broadband2Go offering is the lack of monthly or annual charges. The service is pay as you go and offers several options starting at $10. This is exactly what I needed. There are times I would like to be wireless for a trip or during certain sports, but I am not willing to pay for the services the entire year. With the Broadband2Go Modem, I am able to pay for what I think I will use without a contract or any attachments

Maybe your current iPhone is falling apart at the seams or perhaps something about the iPhone 4 just rubs you the wrong way, we don’t know, but in case you’re desperate to get a new iPhone today, AT&T has announced it has cut the contract price of both the 16 and 32GB models. The 16GB model now goes for $149 while the 32GB goes for $199. It’s probably not the most wise decision to grab one considering what’s going down in 18 days , but this is definitely your last shot at getting a 3GS before it gets its capacity neutered down to a measly 8GB .

Wow, iLuv ! We already had a wager going here for as to who would be first out the door with new iPhone 4 cases, and it looks like iLuv has won – and they’re offering a great selection of cases to boot too. These new graphic designed cases include a dual layer mix and match cases, metallic cases, leather cases, soft coated ultra thin silicone cases to 2-way privacy screen protectors and glare-free screen protectors.

He began by stating, “There are over 100 new features, but I’m going to cover 8. The first one?

By George Hart for the Museum of Mathematics Beading is a traditional craft which recently has been applied to make interesting mathematical models. Here are some impressive examples by Bih-Yaw Jin , starting with a beaded Mobius strip. A beaded helical surface twists through space like a cork screw. All five Platonic solids are shown here, using beads for their edges: octahedron, cube, tetrahedron, icosahedron, and dodecahedron

iPhone 4: $199 on June 24, FaceTime video chat, HD video recording
Apple just announced that the iPhone 4 will include a new video chatting feature called FaceTime. FaceTime allows you to chat with other iPhone 4 owners on video, using the front-facing camera on the device. In order to initiate, you must first make a phone call to the person you want to chat with. Once you are connected, you can then go into a video call. Both parties must be connected to Wi-Fi in order for it to work

FaceTime: Video chat come to iPhone 4
Apple has decided to retire the iPhone OS name with version 4.0, as they’ve just announced at the WWDC 2010 keynote. The new name will be iOS 4. It makes perfect sense, since the iPad runs iOS as well (as does the iPod touch,) and isn’t a phone.

As expected, the iPhone 4 was announced today during Steve Jobs’ keynote at WWDC. Its flagship features are, of course, the extremely high resolution screen , video chat capability with FaceTime , and the sexy new form factor. But there’s more to the 4 than that, and even those seemingly self-explanatory new features deserve a closer look. Let’s see just what Apple’s done here with its biggest update to the iPhone since the original.
