iPhone 3G imminent

Submitted by jcost on Sat, 05/10/2008 - 19:47.

By now I think it's very clear that a new version of the iPhone will be debuting very soon. All of the signs point to it.

- iPhone is out of stock in several countries.
- Screenshots of the SDK show an option to disable 3G data.
- WWDC is coming in June, and it's a prefect spot to debut it.
- iPhone firmware 2.0 is coming in June along with 3rd part apps.
- AT&T and other partners have as much as admitted it.

While this new version will probably be full of new features, people will always want more. This next iPhone is going to be what everyone wanted it to be last year. Will this satisfy most people? Nope. No matter how awesome this phone is, and how many features it has... it's always going to be missing one -- a physical keyboard. For me, it's a tradeoff I am willing to make. READ MORE »

CLM-Icon.png Plasq has released their latest iteration of the Comic Life apps. The newest is Comic Life Magiq. I played with this at Macworld Expo.. and it is a very refined application for creating incredible looking comics. Tons of great templates and the ease of use that Plasq does so well is sure to make this one a winner.

Pricing is set at an introductory $39.95 ($5 off the regular price), but if you received Comic Life on your Mac, you can get a cross-grade it for $19.95.
