Las ventas tan geniales del iPhone, son más falsas que un billete de 30 euros, según parece eso de vender casi 1 millón de iPhone va a ser que no, hoy han caído en picado las acciones de Apple al menos un 3,6% al publicarse las ventas reales del iPhone.La cifra real es de 140.000 ejemplares, esta noticia a aparecido de la pagina de Invertia donde publican temas económicos, no hay versión de las ventas por parte de Apple, pero de confirmarse dicha cifra sería un verdadero fracaso y con estos números el iPhone no tiene nada que hacer en el mundo de la telefonía móvil, en fin hay que esperar a ver si la noticia se confirma por parte de Apple. info ? invertia

Thanks in large part to the work by the gents at the Dev Wiki, a working toolchain -- including a compiler, assembler, and linker -- and the dedicated efforts of many inspired types, the iPhone apps are arriving en masse. So far the list includes tools like a working Apache we server, python, shell -- and a pile of associated binaries like ls, rm, echo, csh, and tsh -- and while these might not be terribly thrilling for Joe everyday user, they are a pretty kicking start. We could start to see all manner of fun stuff arriving in the coming weeks, unless, of course, Apple pulls the plug via an update.MORE...

While this would be all the more sweet on a 3G iPhone, a new series of hacks will now give you untethered EDGE networking from your laptop. Starting with jailbreak as any proper iPhone hack must, the latest hack installs a new SOCKS server on your iPhone. Join your iPhone and laptop to the same ad-hoc WiFi network and you're pretty much good to go. The procedure is a bit cumbersome if this is your first hack attempt so be sure to check the YouTube video-how-to before you get going.MORE...

Only a few days after the iPhone went on sale, hackers were already kicking the wheels and checking under the hood to see if they could pimp out Apple’s locked-down smartphone. After a month, they’ve made surprising progress. Below, we detail some of the milestone hacks for what has been called “the most significant consumer electronics product ever.” Most of the hacks that have been publicized so far are aimed at controlling or enhancing your own iPhone, but a darker side has emerged too. A security firm announced a possible Wi-Fi-based browser exploit, which could give hackers access to an iPhone’s microphone, surfing history and contact information — and possibly website and e-mail passwords stored on the phone, too. Make no mistake: The iPhone is a magnet for hackers, both good and bad. (more…)

The same Safari bug is also on Mac OS X and Windows, say researchers July 24, 2007 (Computerworld) — The iPhone vulnerability that could let hackers steal data or commandeer the device also exists in the desktop edition of Apple Inc.’s Mac OS X operating system, the exploit’s researchers said today. Charles Miller, one of the three researchers from Baltimore-based Independent Security Evaluators who found the bug and wrote proof-of-concept exploits, confirmed that the vulnerability in the iPhone version of Safari is also present in the desktop version of the browser. Safari is included with all Mac OS X installations. (more…)

In a first peek behind the iPhone launch, AT&T Inc. said Tuesday that it activated 146,000 devices in the first two days of sales, which coincided with the last two days of its second quarter. Analysts had estimated that 200,000 to 500,000 of the highly anticipated Apple Inc. product would be sold in the first three days. AT&T, the exclusive carrier for the iPhone, released quarterly financial results but would not reveal how many new devices were sold. It would only say that the iPhone had continued to sell well this month after the initial weekend frenzy at Apple and AT&T stores beginning June 29.Wall Street shaved 35 cents off its shares, which closed Tuesday at $39.68.

Uno se maravilla de cómo puede salir primero a las calles la edición hechiza de Harry Potter antes del lanzamiento oficial de la más reciente Orden del Fénix.Los que somos ignorantes tecnológicos, que hace apenas unas horas atrás abríamos los ojos admirando las excelencias de un nuevo aparato llamado iPhone, creado y popularizado mundialmente en un santiamén por Apple, ahora se nos descuelga la quijada porque la firma Independent Security Evaluators (ISE) acaba de revelar su total vulnerabilidad."Los expertos explicaron que pudieron apoderarse del control del iPhone mediante una conexión Wi–Fi o luego de engañar a los usuarios para que ingresaran a una página web con código maligno", dice John Schwartz en The New York Times.Parece que Apple ya está al tanto del asunto.A estos sucesos, que ocurren a velocidades siderales, se sabe hoy de redes completas de computadores infectados por medio de un Universal Serial Bus Flash, o pendrive viroso.Qué hace que se forzaban cerrad

Now this is bizarre because Apple stores charge an entrance fee of $5 to see iPhone and next gen iPods, large crowds are flocking to see the iPhone and the next generation iPods so to beat the crowds Apple are charging customers which is totally crazy but hey what a way to make money. The reason they are charging this entrance fee is to limit crowds to keep stores safe but they also want to keep the right kind of customer in the stores it was reported by a Vince Sciopiano the vice president of retail outlets, he also went on to say that by saying that of right customers he means true Apple customers with money and will to pay just to look at their newest wares. In side the store geniuses will be there but outside the store their will be guards who will guard the window displays and entrances. So what do you get for $5? Well you will get an Apple button which allows you to enter the store and it is used to track customer’s movements. Would you pay $5 to enter an Apple store? Written

A reader called Nomad7674 let this one out on the new Apple Bluetooth headset and the question is “Does this mean it is specific to the iPhone? The new Apple branded Bluetooth headset and we know that because you can clearly see the Apple logo on the headset in the picture below. The apple headset comes packaged in a black box which is not nothing special with the Bluetooth earpiece in the centre; a combo dock accommodates the iPhone and headset with a USB cable and a nice travel cable for the headset only. Nomad7674 goes on to say that when the headset and the iPhone are connected to the dock the hyped up iPhone display depicts the headset plus its current charge (neat).

AT&T wiped some of the glow off Apple Inc. iPhone on Tuesday, releasing numbers that showed fewer morons than expected signed up for service in the first two days of the multimedia cell phone's release. AT&T - the iPhone's exclusive carrier - said it activated 146,000 ovewr priced 60 + bugged iPhones on June 29 and 30, a number that disappointed investors following some analyst forecasts that Apple would sell 500,000 or more iPhones in its first weekend. The news interrupted a steady rise in Apple's stock price that started with the iPhone's release. The 18 percent surge generated $18 billion in shareholder wealth. On Tuesday, Apple shares fell $8.81, or more than 6 percent, to $134.89, wiping out more than $7 billion of Apple's market value.

El teléfono iPhone de Apple tiene un defecto que permite a los piratas informáticos controlar el aparato a través de la conexión WiFi, denunció hoy la firma Internet Security Evaluators (ISE).ISE dijo que el fallo también puede ser explotado a través de páginas de internet con código malicioso.Apple no ha negado la existencia del problema que, según ISE, fue comunicado a la compañía el pasado 17 de julio y se puede solucionar con un programa para parchear el software del teléfono.El analista de seguridad de ISE Charles Miller señaló en una evaluación publicada hoy en internet que "hay serios problemas con el diseño y aplicación de seguridad del iPhone. El más evidente es que todos los procesos de interés se ejecutan con privilegios administrativos".El iPhone utiliza una versión reducida del sistema operativo Mac OS X que, como las versiones de computadores de sobremesa, "no usan prácticas ampliamente aceptadas, como utilizar direcciones aleatorias" para hacer la v

People everywhere are trying to figure out what the Apple iPhone means to the bottom line. They have talked about the service agreements with AT&T, the profit from the sell of each phone, and now how much Apple gets for every subscriber on AT&T. According to Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster, he believes the monthly revenue sharing involves $3 per month for service and data fees related to all iPhone users, and AT&T gives Apple an additional $8 per month for iPhone customers who transfer service to AT&T in order to use the iPhone.

The NY Times reports that researchers at a security firm Independent Security Evaluators have announced that they have found a vulnerability in the Apple iPhone that allows them to extract personal information and "take control" of the device from a malicious website or WiFi connection:The company has setup a website which provides a video demo of the exploit as well as answers to questions, but does not provide would-be hackers any detailed instructions. Apple has reportedly been notified of findings. A full disclosure of the hack will be released at the Black Hat conference on August 2nd, while a preliminary report (PDF) is currently available.According to the site, in their proof of concept, the exploit can read the log of SMS messages, address book, call history, voicemail data and transmit it to the malicious site.The principal security analyst admits "It's not the end of the world; it's not the end of the iPhone" and it appears it hasn't changed their enjoyment of the iPhone i

eBuddy is a strange mix of a typical Web company. While the lowercase "e" in front of the name might suggest it's a survivor of the early 1990s dot-com boom, it actually started out in 2003 and resides not in the Silicon Valley, but Amsterdam. It's also one of the few companies I've seen that has put almost its entire press kit on Flickr. eBuddy specializes in Web-based IM, which might sound familiar if you've ever used Meebo or the Web version of your favorite chat client. eBuddy works with three of the major clients, including AIM, MSN, and Yahoo. The latest release, which came earlier this month, runs all three at once.IM on your iPhone, with eBuddy.(Credit: CNET Networks)Besides running on your browser, in the last two months eBuddy has been moving into the mobile space. It has a handy Java-based client that will run in nearly every phone, along with a version you can point to with your mobile browser. Just a few days ago this mobile version was optimized for the iPhone in orde

It has been said that “where there is a will, there is a way.” That sentiment is well served by being applied to the purchasing of today’s cell phones and other electronic gadgets. The term techo-geek, short for Technology Geek, no longer applies to just the pocket protector using, braces wearing, non athletic, characters pictured in the TV shows and Movies. Now, this once derogatory term can be applied to the masses at large with no negative connotation whatsoever. We all love our cell phones and PDAs and that love is only getting stronger as or lives demand our input in events at various locations simultaneously. As new technology provides more and more “stay in touch capacity.” We quickly fill that capacity with a new task that we add to our list. Technology is only feeding the internal human desire to do as much as possible, as fast as possible, while on the move. (more…)

Los intentos por usar el celular de Apple sin necesidad de tener el servicio de AT&T van tomando forma. Semanas atrás, lograron evitar la activación y ahora poder usar otras tarjetas SIM. Los problemas que esto puede causarUno de los tantos grupos que se dedica desde hace semanas a tratar de desbloquear el celular de Apple logró parte de su cometido. Desde iPhoneDevWiki aseguraron que encontraron la manera de desbloquear el iPhone para que acepte cualquier tarjeta SIM de Cingular o AT&T.Recordemos que Apple firmó un convenio de exclusividad con AT&T, motivo por el que los que compran el iPhone en los EEUU deben como mínimo permanecer dos años con dicha operadora.En la actualidad, al activar el iPhone a través de AT&T el aparato queda asociado a la tarjeta SIM que viene provista y ni siquiera acepta otras de la misma empresa.El mencionado grupo creó una aplicación que desbloquea el equipo y permite usarlo con una cuenta de prepago, corporativa, o cualquier SIM.
