"This time, it looks like there will be early morning lines. That's what AT&T retail stores around the country are expecting when the new iPhone 3G goes on sale July 11 at 8 a.m. At Apple and AT&T stores, all employees are asked to be on deck, with some assigned to crowd control duties in remembrance of last year's long lines when the iPhone debuted at 6 p.m. on June 29, 2007," Mike Wendland reports for The Detroit Free Press.

The iPhone phenomenon is well and truly in force since the launch of the iPhone 3G in Australia last month. With this in mind, competitors are clamouring for a piece of the pie and are set to begin launching potential 'iPhone killers' in a bid to derail the Apple machine. We’ve been fortunate to have two of the newest iPhone competitors in the office, along with the iPhone 3G. RIM’s BlackBerry Bold and the much anticipated HTC Touch Diamond are two smartphones that are set to compete with the iPhone 3G in Australia and around the globe. Check out our slideshow of these hot smartphones side by side! iPhone 3G vs BlackBerry Bold vs Touch Diamond iPhone 3G vs BlackBerry Bold vs Touch Diamond iPhone 3G vs BlackBerry Bold vs Touch Diamond iPhone 3G vs BlackBerry Bold vs Touch Diamond iPhone 3G vs BlackBerry Bold vs Touch Diamond iPhone 3G vs B

Apple this week began posting information for iPhone users intending to update their device to the new iPhone 3G. A new support document explains how to replace an original iPhone with an iPhone 3G using the same carrier: "If you follow these steps to backup your original iPhone first, and then restore the backup to your iPhone 3G, your saved SMS messages, email accounts, photos, notes, and other personal settings will be present on your iPhone 3G," the company noted. The instructions indicate that iPhone users in the US will not need to transfer their SIM card (a new one will be provided with the iPhone 3G) and describes how to transfer settings, personal info, SMS messages, and other data to the new device using iTunes' backup iPhone feature.

(Review) - We’ll get right to the chase. Apple’s iPhone 3G is very similar to the original iPhone. In fact, first-generation iPhones can be updated to use the iPhone 2.0 software, which will give a lot of the software capabilities of iPhone 3G to its predecessor. However, that doesn’t mean that iPhone 3G isn’t worth the upgrade. If you were holding out on the original iPhone in hopes of iPhone 3G, this is your chance to grab one, assuming can get past the strict requirements of activating the phone in AT&T or Apple Stores. That’s of course to prevent a lot of folks from unlocking their iPhones.

Apple fans, old and new, got to experience the good side and the dark side of Apple's product launch mania during Friday's iPhone 3G release. Lines were long, though some said not as long as for the original iPhone, but the big news was all the iPhone activation problems. Apple's decision to brick iPhones until they were activated at AT&T stores, or via users' iTunes software, showed the real weak link in Apple's launch strategy of bring out the iPhone 2.0 software and iPhone 3G devices out on the same day.Â

This isn’t exactly the biggest protest that Apple (NSDQ: AAPL) could have waged against Rogers Wireless, but it’s getting a ton of attention. Reports today are claiming that the iPhone-maker will refuse to sell the new 3G version of the phone in Apple retail stores on Friday because it is protesting the higher-than-average service plans for the device that Rogers intends to charge. AppleInsider.com reports that “Apple, disgusted with Rogers Wireless for dumping egregious service plans on would-be iPhone 3G buyers, has decided that its Canadian retail stores will have no part in helping the carrier market the new handset to customers.” AppleInsider said it got this information during a late phone call with Apple last night; representatives from Rogers have not yet responded to emails seeking comment.

Orange France said it had sold 116,000 Apple iPhone 3G smartphones since it launched the product in the middle of July, compared to taking nearly five months to sell 100,000 units of the first version of the iPhone, writes Les Echos. The success of the new version is partly attributed to Orange's decision to offer it through retailers such as Fnac, Darty and Auchan. It only sold the first iPhone at Orange stores. According to Orange, half of its iPhone 3G users first had the original version. Orange is selling the 3G phone for EUR 149 compared to the first version's retail price of EUR 399. Rival mobile operator SFR said that 40,000 of its subscribers had a first generation iPhone and between 1,500 and 2,000 owned the iPhone 3G. The operator made concessions to some of its clients by partially reimbursing the price of iPhones bought as st

Promises and promises and few more promises, that’s what came from Apple’s stable about iPhone 3G software being unhackable, but iPhone Dev Team has done it again as they released PwnageTool 2.0 for iPhone 3G, 1st Gen iPhone and iPod Touch. Sadly, PwnageTool 2.0 is only able to break all shackles on 1st Generation iPhones and not on iPhone 3G. That means, you won’t be able to unlock your iPhone 3G as of now, though you can unlock your 1st Gen iPhone.

red-iphone-3g.jpgMuch of the gossip in the queues for iPhone 3G on launch day here in the UK was over whether people wanted a black or a white model, before we all found out that we’d only have a choice of black. Who knows when the white version will touch down (if at all) in the UK. Still, if you don’t lead a monochrome lifestyle, you’ll be pleased by the strong rumours that Apple is planning to launch a red iPhone for Christmas. Or rather a RED iPhone, as it’ll apparently be part of the charitable (PRODUCT) RED campaign, which Apple has supported in the past with scarlet iPods. It’s a good cause, but does anyone really want a red iPhone? That said, if Apple ever launches a green one that benefits eco charities, I might be tempted to switch to it…

Now that the brouhaha over the iPhone 3G has calmed down, users have now to deal with the problem of low battery life so typical of a device packed with Apps and with 3G connectivity. We have earlier dealt with ways and means of increasing the battery life of the iPhone 3G. For those of you for whom the tips to expand the iPhone 3G battery life appears unexciting, they are left with no other option other than recharging the battery as frequently as possible. To make the recharging process easier you could try the Solar Powered cases for the iPhone 3G. The inbuilt 1500mAh case battery can provide one full charge to the iPhone, the case battery in turn being recharged through the solar panel mounted on the front of the case or in case of non-availability of sunlight via mini USB.

Apple on Monday released iPhone 2.0.2, an update to its second-generation software for the original iPhone and iPhone 3G. The update is about 242MB and first appeared via iTunes just after 5PM EST. As is usually the case with iPhone updates, Apple provided few details, saying simply that the update contains "bug fixes," and links to existing online iPhone support resources. Over the weekend the company seeded iPhone v2.1b4, a private beta, to developers, but removed the much anticipated 'push" feature that would allow applications to respond to internet triggers (new email, an IM, etc.) without being open. The major software update along with the unique "push service" was announced in June 2008 at Apple's WWDC and was expected to launch in September, according to Apple CEO Steve Jobs.
