Daniel Smith, a Canadian sales and marketing consultant with an eclectic blog called Smithereens, posted on Saturday what he called a very plausible rumour? about the launch at of Apples iPhone 3G on the Rogers Communications network.
Well, that’s not the point I’m making. The point I’m making is that by going ga-ga for the iPhone is exactly like when cell phones themselves came out: the hardware was expensive and the rates were expensive. Umm,…
Despite some mixed signals at their retail meeting last night, Apple has now updated their retail website at http://www.apple.com/retail indicating that the iPhone 3G will be launched at 8 a.m. at Apple Retail stores on July 11th.
AT&T had previously announced an 8 a.m. launch time for the iPho…

Lucrative information about the AT&T Family Talk plan for the iPhone and highly anticipated iPhone 3G.
Thanks a lot Mr. AT&T rep - we're glad you're enjoying that your employer is sucking us dry with these $30/month data plans that don't even include text messages, and now these apparent more expensive family plans. Great.

Want a data-only plan for your iPhone? Hacktivate your iPhone with a Pay As You Go plan and add the new “Unlimited Media Net” feature package each month. You must watch your dates and times carefully to avoid reverting to standard data charges. You end up with a contract-free unlimited-data iPhone with the option of making calls @$20/mo
I read about this on another blog several days ago. I have an unused 8gb iPhone and thought I'd give it a try. The other site only used a $25 SIM card to start the deal going, so that's what I did. I ran into a few $ costing issues playing…

AT&T is planning to put some extra shine on the even sleeker new Apple iPhone.
When the 3G iPhone is introduced this summer, AT&T, the exclusive U.S. iPhone sales partner with Apple, will cut the price by as much as $200, according to a person familiar with the strategy.
It’s a bit misleading to say that the iPhone has a “higher priced data and calling plan” because readers might think that the iPhone voice+data plan costs more than other voice+data plans, when what you are…

YouTube sold for $1.6 billion. How much will you sell yours for?? Thats the over-optimistic hook being used by StartYourTube to entice people into setting up branded video sharing sites on its white label platform.
I hate to say it, but this startup sort of looks like garbage. I went through the process of creating an account, and interacting with the administrative interface. It’s bloated and confusing. Seems like a gimmicky piece of trash.. There…

Why is Apple suddenly in talks with record labels about bundling an unlimited music plan with new iPods, after resisting such a move for years? Steve Jobs has scoffed at music subscriptions in the past, saying customers want to “own their music.” Never take Steve at his word: For years, he shot down the idea of iPods with video or an…
I like their stuff. I hope another company comes around to bitch slap apple though. It is becoming like Microsoft and is becoming too full of itself. by matto at 03:15 PM Reply by Email * @Fidel on the Roof: is it even possible to buy a mac today…

Warner Music has contracted industry vet Jim Griffin to come up with a plan that could end the music industry’s war against P2P. ISP customers could eventually pay a small fee and be able to upload, download, and share all the music they want on P2P. Labels and artists alike would get a cut of the proceeds.
Instead of suing handfuls of file-sharers, Griffin and Warner Music believe that the industry should be putting its time and effort into attempting to monetize P2P activity. The idea that music is a product that can be purchased and stolen…
A massive switch from coal, oil, natural gas and nuclear power plants to solar power plants could supply 69 percent of the U.S.s electricity and 35 percent of its total energy by 2050. But $420 billion in subsidies from 2011 to 2050 would be required to fund the infrastructure and make it cost-competitive.
The federal government would have to invest more than $400 billion over the next 40 years to complete the 2050 plan. That investment is substantial, but the payoff is greater. Solar plants consume little or no fuel, saving billions of dollars year…

We’re not sure what took them so long, but Sprint finally has joined its fellow major carriers in offering an unlimited plan for a flat rate — the now industry standard $99 — only this time it’s for all the marbles
As a Sprint employee we had a nationwide meeting and webcast this morning. The 99.99 Simply Unlimited plan does inlude BIS(blackberry internet service). However the BES(blackberry enterprise server)is only $20 extra a month…
