The iPhone-4G will be awesome and could come in 5 colors plus motion-control.

Right now it looks like that Apple won’t change much on the 4G design, which shall arrive earlier than expected (April). On the other hand this could be a good sign that Apple will make the new iPhone much more powerful (dual-core). Design is more expensive nowadays then technology.

Best Smartphone-app-list of Voice Recording applications for the iPhone, Android and Blackberry

It is possible to use the Smart Phone Voice recording software to record multiple things. For example, you can use voice recorder software to record your voice on thoughts, memos, or other miscellaneous items. You can even record someone from the law if you need to do so. However, it has just come to the attention of most people that it is not possible to record someone from law enforcement unless you notify that person. If you do not notify someone, it is called “illegal electronic surveillance.”

3D Games and Graphics on Android So Far

For the longest time, the vast majority of games available on mobile phones were as basic as can be. With only two dimensional, low bit graphics, they were sometimes not even playable or enjoyable. These limits were usually set due to the small processing power available on a mobile phone. Even though phones have seen a fair amount of technological advances, often the phones would be limited to two dimensional graphics, limiting their appeal more than a few times. The Google Android in particular did not see enough of an advance in technology until recently. Now a few three dimensional games are beginning to pop up that can be played on the Android, which is a great breakthrough for the mobile gamer who just needed to have Google’s phone.

Hackers are using the tactic demonstrated last week by an Australian programmer’s self-described “prank”

Computerworld reports that

This new worm uses “the same approach as last week’s “ikee” worm to silently snatch control of some iPhones”

“Portable attack runs on Windows PCs and Macs, then sniffs out nearby iPhones to plunder”

“It’s not surprising,” said Charlie Miller, a noted researcher of iPhone vulnerabilities, when asked his take on the move toward malicious intent. “This ‘vulnerability’ gives you root access to the iPhone, which gives you full access. It’s trivial to exploit, doesn’t need shellcode or anything like that.”
