Remember when XSKN mentioned the upcoming iPhone Nano on its site? Well, now they came up with some concept pictures of what the phone will look like. The iPhone Nano looks to be slightly shorter than the standard iPhone, and will have only 3 rows of menus instead of 4.
Looking forward to the next year’s Macworld.

This is probably the most accurate iPhone 3G clone yet. Known as the Ephone, it lacks the touchscreen (wtf!), 3G support, but as any normal Chinese rip off comes with a dual SIM card slot. If you're interested, you can get it for $160 outright.
Features include:
- TV support;
- Audio and video playback;
- 1.3Mpix camera;
- Dual SIM

XSKN has come up with a category on its site called the "iPhone Nano". Of course, it could be just a typo, but do you recall when XSKN started selling cases for the iPhone 3G before the handset was even released?
Maybe this time they know something we don't? Time will tell.

Those looking for an officially unlocked iPhone 3G will probably like this piece of news. Apparently, the handset will be soon launching unlocked in Taiwan. And while Chunghwa Telecom, Taiwanese carrier for the iPhone, claims that the device will function only on their network, don't worry, it's not true. The only thing you'll be missing when inserting a different SIM-card is Chunghwa Telecom’s Hami services.

According to some fresh rumors, Walmart will soon be offering the 4GB iPhone for $99 along with a 2-year contract. This information is now confirmed yet, but it be really sweet to get the iPhone (let it be non-3G, it's ok) for just 99 bucks. We're keeping our fingers crossed...

That's weird. Apparently the latest iPhone 2.2 firmware locks legally unlocked iPhones, which are currently available in Hong Kong and some European countries.
This issue was stated after a user from Germany bought an unlocked iPhone 3G in Hong Kong and updated it to version 2.2 back home. The handset has locked! And he is not alone who has such problem.
Apple should really look into this one to clarify the situation.

Hurray! We're glad to inform you that Linux can finally be ported to the first iPhone, iPhone 3G, and first-generation iPod touch platforms. The first version of the port is very raw and has a lot of the needed stuff missing, but that will be fixed in the future releases.
Here's what currently works:
- Framebuffer driver;
- Serial driver;
- Serial over USB driver;
- Interrupts, MMU, clock, etc.

iPhone's latest SDK contains a programming class called MPTVOutWindow, which enables the iPhone's Video-Out function, thus allowing the handset to send a video signal through the Dock Connector to an external display. This feature supports both landscape and portrait viewing modes, and will obviously be geared towards movie viewing.
The accelerometer is recognized in Video-Out mode, though the touch input appears to be disabled.
