iPhone 3G Availability Tracking Just Got Easier

news July 28th, 2008

If you are in the market for the iPhone 3G, you’ve probably encountered your local Apple Store being out of stock. Apple continues to replenish stock and even has their own availability application on their site. The site requires you to drill down in order to check your local availability. Utilizing Apple’s JSON file, Chris Barnes has created a “mashup” providing quick access to iPhone 3G availability across the country. Apple Retail Stores are now opening at 8 a.m every day, but Sunday to accomodate the demand.

iPhone 3G availability

At last check, only 1% of stores throughout the US had no 3G iPhones in stock. 87% have the 8GB in stock, 98% have the 16GB white in stock and only 92% have the 16GB black iPhone 3G in stock.

Bloomberg’s iPhone app a window onto Wall Street

AppStore, apps July 15th, 2008

The world of finance is sober, serious business, ever more so in a struggling through economy. Bloomberg’s freeware application for the iPhone and iPod Touch gives information-seekers a clear view of the moment with financial headlines, a ticker finder, and a fleshed-out index of world markets.

Bloomberg stocks on the iPhone

An appealing dark-themed app, Bloomberg contains a read-only newsfeed and statistics on various exchanges in global markets. Highs, lows, and a graph of yearlong performance are displayed for each exchange–further charts and tables are available for industry and stock movers.

To discover individual stock performance, users simply enter the company name into the stock finder, which also keeps a short-term history of your past queries. Even better, entering stocks and your share holdings into the My Stocks folder creates a personalized portfolio you can watch for daily fluctuation.

LiveJournal.app has been updated

apps July 15th, 2008

LiveJournal.app v.0.3.1

LiveJournal.app has been upgraded to version 0.3.1. This upgrade is mostly about fixing previous version’s bugs rather than installing new features, but there are some of those as well.

What’s new:

  • you can choose a userpic for each entry and choose your default userpic;
  • now you can add new tags in the “edit entry” menu;
  • the program now remembers your Location(s), so you’ll be able to choose one of the earlier specified locations when editing your entry (this locations menu will become available as soon as your save at least one location);
  • progress bar for image upload now reflects the real upload progress;
  • the option of choosing images is now available for versions below 1.1.3 (this hasn’t been tested);
  • a menu with options to open the journal or the published entry opens up after successful publication.

What’s old:

  • bug fix for ScrapBook authentication, which did not recognize usernames with _ (underscore);
  • bug fix for application’s shutdown during posting with no internet connection;
  • within the limits of one session the application does not upload the same pictures once more if they were specified for upload twice or if the connection was broken in the process of the posting;
  • bug fix for mistakes found in the process of working with the tag selection table;
  • bug fix for sometimes incorrect behavior of the Post button;
  • several other insignificant bugs were fixed.

Special thanks go out to [info]dorofej, [info]qik, [info]diesel_ks, [info]ruben и [info]padla_cableguy for their help in testing this application. It became much more stable with their help.
Also thanks to [info]q_marik for her help in translating all of this into English.

AT&T Announces iPhone 3G Release Details

AT&T, ops July 2nd, 2008

AT&T today confirmed that the iPhone 3G will go on sale at 8 a.m. local time on Friday, July 11th. AT&T has also outlined pricing and upgrade eligibility.

iPhone 3G will be available for $199 for the 8GB model and $299 for the 16GB model. These prices require two-year contracts and are available to the following customers:

  • iPhone customers who purchased before July 11
  • Customers activating a new line with AT&T
  • Current AT&T customers who are eligible, at the time of purchase, for an upgrade discount

Existing AT&T customers who are not currently eligible for an upgrade discount can purchase iPhone 3G for $399 for the 8GB model or $499 for the 16GB model. Both options require a new two-year service agreement. In the future, AT&T will offer a no-contract-required option for $599 (8GB) or $699 (16GB).

Current customers may also choose to wait until they become eligible for an upgrade discount. Eligibility is generally determined by amount of time remaining on a current contract and payment history.

Current AT&T customers who are upgrading to iPhone 3G will pay an $18 upgrade fee and new AT&T customers will pay the standard $36 activation fee.

Voice, Data and Text Messaging Plans

AT&T brings iPhone 3G customers the best coverage on the globe and the largest mobile-to-mobile calling community with unlimited calling to AT&T’s 71.4 million wireless customers. iPhone 3G customers can choose from four individual AT&T Nation plans, which bundle voice and unlimited data (e-mail and Web browsing).

  • AT&T Nation 450: Includes 450 Anytime Minutes and 5,000 Night & Weekend Minutes for $69.99 a month.

All AT&T Nation and AT&T FamilyTalk® plans for iPhone 3G include nationwide long distance and roaming, Visual Voicemail, Rollover®, unlimited Mobile to Mobile calling, Call Forwarding, Call Waiting, Three-Way Calling and Caller ID.

AT&T will offer FamilyTalk plans, with bundled voice and unlimited data, starting as low as $129.99 a month for two iPhone 3G lines. Up to three additional iPhone lines can be added for $39.99 each.

Unlimited text messaging can be added for an additional $20 ($30 for FamilyTalk plans of up to five lines); $15 (1,500 messages), or $5 (200 messages).

iPhone for Business

Business customers interested in iPhone 3G should contact an AT&T business sales representative or review their account information online to determine their eligibility for upgrade pricing. Corporate e-mail and other business applications require the Enterprise Data Plan for iPhone, which is $45 a month and bundled with an eligible voice plan. Small business customers may qualify for AT&T BusinessTalk, the industry’s only shared plan specifically for small businesses. Additional details on iPhone business offerings are available at www.att.com/iphoneforbusiness.

iPhone 2.0 Software

All iPhone customers will benefit from the iPhone 2.0 software, which will be pre-loaded on all iPhone 3Gs and available as a free download for current iPhone customers. The new software will include numerous enhancements, such as business-class e-mail access via Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync; the iPhone Software Development Kit (SDK), which allows a business to easily create applications customized to its needs; and the App Store, which offers a wide-range of applications — from games to business, education to entertainment and productivity to social networking. For example, AT&T has developed YELLOWPAGES.COM Mobile for iPhone, which takes local mobile search to a new level by allowing users to discover businesses and local events based on their popularity among other iPhone users, get directions and access business reviews.
