Still Really Want An iPhone 4? Find $5,000, Head To eBay
Posted on June 17, 2010 | No Comments
As you may have heard, Apple completely blew through its pre-order launch day iPhone 4s in less than a day (and that was despite major technical issues with the ordering process). It has now blown through the second wave (due in early July) as well. The current shipping estimate if you order right now is July 14. Ugh. But if you absolutely want one at or around launch day, the Internet, as always, provides an option.
Scanning eBay right now, there are roughly 400 iPhone 4s for sale (between the 16 GB and 32 GB models). Sure, the device isn't out yet, but people are willing to part with the device as soon as they get it on June 24. The question is: how much do you have to pay to get them to part with it? Currently, the cheapest ones are going for $550 -- and that's the $199 16 GB model. The cheapest 32 GB model? $799 -- a full $500 over the $299 retail price.

iPhone 4 pre-order shipping estimates bumped back yet again
Posted on June 16, 2010 | No CommentsI’ll go ahead and say it: if you want an iPhone 4 and didn’t pre-order yesterday, you’re going to have a hell of a time getting one on launch day. In fact, you might have a tough time getting one any time near launch day. As the pre-orders piled up last night and the first batch [...] -
Microsoft’s Oprah moment: You’re all getting Xboxes
Posted on June 14, 2010 | No Comments
Although there was plenty of news coming out of Microsoft today, the most interesting move is their decision to begin shipping the brand new XBox - it's basically the old XBox with 802.11n Wi-Fi, a 250GB hard drive, and Kinect support - the same week they announced it. It's not quite same day, but it's close.
However, another treat came when they announced all the media at their press event will be getting XBox 360s immediately and that they would be showing up at their domiciles and places of business posthaste.
These sort of giveaways are common at developer events (well, actually just Google IO) and I suspect they'll become more popular in the coming months. Gear is so cheap to build and ship that it almost makes sense to blanket the evangelists with it. Whereas the old model of "selective releases" works for some products - Apple, in particular excels at this - the XBox team is dealing with an entrenched base of hardware users who will be loathe to swap out their old XBox, provided they're not RRODed.
Update: Now with video!

The beauty here is that the chair itself is the controller with a joystick pad located on the chairs single mounting point and controller bars holding the buttons. Amazing.

AT&T to provide free unlock codes for everyone! …except iPhone users
Posted on May 25, 2010 | No Comments
It seems that all it takes is a class-action lawsuit to get some companies to start treating their customers right.
As a settlement of said lawsuit, today it was announced that AT&T will provide customers with a free unlock code for their device after only 90 days of service. Now, now, don't get too excited yet: it's not quite as clear-cut as it may seem.
