Need some extra power time for your Apple iPhone?

The new iPowerRush can add up to 10-15 extra hours of use time, and up to 120 hours of standby time to your handset.

The device is basically a 6 AAA battery pack with a built-in voltage limiter, which connects to the phone and provides additional power.

The partfoundry has announced its new GPS module for the iPhone.

This small device is called locoGPS and will be available in February 2008 for $89. This will give enough time for third-party developers to create navigational software for the module, using the official Apple iPhone SDK.

It looks like Apple intends to bring the iPhone to Japan.

Currently the company's officials are negotiating with NTT DoCoMo, the largest Japanese carrier, trying to convince them to accept the revenue sharing deal. Steve Jobs is also in talks with Softbank in case NTT DoCoMo denies the offer.

Google presents a new web-based application for the Apple iPhone and iPod Touch called Picasa Software.

It is basically an online photo album: users will be able to upload pictures from their PC in the net, and access them via this software on the iPhone.

Here's a fresh rumor for you.

Apparently, TomTom has developed an add-on GPS receiver for the Apple iPhone. The thing you see on the picture here is obviously the GPS module we're talking about, as on the phone's screen we clearly see GPS navigation prompts.

As you've probably heard, the upcoming iPhone SDK that should appear in February, is already available to some developers, not excluding TomTom, so, it is very possible that the manufacturer came up with this accessory as an alternative to the official GPS-enabled iPhone, which is still not ready.

Apple iPhone will soon be able to run Playstation games thanks to the new PSX4iPhone application.

Goldstriker International proudly resents its Platinum Edition of the Apple iPhone.

Only 250 of these will be made, so hurry up if you want one.

The handset will be available for GBP1099.95 in January.

Here's an interesting piece of information for you.

Apple iPhone is apparently the bestseller not only in the US, but even in Europe, where it officially appeared just last month, and was accepted with less enthusiasm because of the lack of some important features.

The handset has managed to overpass in sales such giants like HTC Touch, LG Prada, and even Nokia N95, which only means that despite of all of its downsides the device still remains very popular among consumers.

Google has optimized its website for the Apple iPhone .

Those who own the handset will notice the difference. Now besides the search bar the main page also features quick access links to Google's services and applications such as Gmail, Calendar, Reader, Docs, News, etc.

For the rest of existing handsets the site's interface remains the same.

According to France Telecom, their Orange division in France has managed to sell around 30,000 iPhones since the last week’s launch.

Of course, this number looks pale in comparison with 270,000 handsets sold in the first two days of the US release, but it's a good start.
