Posted on June 22, 2010 | No Comments
As handfuls of iPhone 4s begin to slip through the cracks and into the grabby hands of hungry phone fans everywhere, the first batches of unboxing pictures are starting to go live as we type this.

We're keeping an eye out for galleries as they go up; if you're amongst the many hundreds of thousands waiting on the edge of the seat, join as after the jump for these last minute teases.

Some iPhone 4s Begin Arriving A Full 2 Days Early
Posted on June 22, 2010 | No Comments
As you may have read last night, Apple started emailing people who pre-ordered the iPhone 4 to let them know that it may arrive a day early. While the rest of us have to wait for June 24, those who opted to get the device delivered, should get it as soon as tomorrow, the email says. But actually, if FedEx's tracking system is correct (and that may be a big "if"), some people may actually get the iPhone 4 today.
As you can see in the screenshot, FedEx is alerting some customers that the iPhone 4 is "On FedEx vehicle for delivery." In this particular instance, this is an iPhone that has been sitting in Oakland for a day, so it's not clear why it would be on a FedEx truck unless they were actually delivering it. Others on Twitter are seeing the same thing.

Innpu solves a problem you never had, introduces the ‘wired phone’ with built-in hands-free
Posted on June 22, 2010 | No Comments
Ok, so I'm not one of those guys that goes around holding their phone in one hand, and a hands-free microphone (irony duly noted) in the other in an effort to lose friends. In fact, I'm not even one of those guys that unwraps their included hands-free kit when they get a new phone. I just don't use handsfree kits. If you call me when I'm driving, I let it ring out.
So I may not be in the best position to talk about Innpu's new phone. You know, the one that has a permanently attached hands-free kit.

The sad tale of Nokia’s sinking market cap, where I come over all nostalgic
Posted on June 22, 2010 | No Comments
Bloomberg today pumped out a chart that shows the erosion of Nokia's market cap over the last 10 years. Moreso, it also shows how Apple has seemingly switched places with the Finnish phone maker.
10 years ago (back when screens were greyscale, ringtones were beepy, batteries lasted over a week, and I rocked a Nokia 8210), Nokia's market cap was somewhere around a staggering $245 billion, which is -- strangely enough -- where Apple sits now.
