Going along with Apple’s scheme of free bumpers and other approved third party cases, it seems Best Buy are now offering free Invisible shields for unhappy iPhone 4 customers.
What’s more it’s for any iPhone 4 owner, apparently you don’t even have had to purchase your iPhone 4 in Best Buy at all!
Now the Invisible Shield only covers the antenna portion of the iPhone 4, and [...]

Many of you were disappointed when Apple delayed the white iPhone 4 until later this year, and we had a theory that the reason it was delayed is because Apple couldn’t make enough of the glass casings fast enough.
Well now there’s a new theory as to why it’s delayed.
Scott Moritz of TheStreet reports that the white iPhone 4 is delayed due to backlight leaking out from the casing.
Apparently, [...]

The free bumpers that Apple promised us are now beginning to arrive in the hands of eager customers. They begun shipping at the beginning of the week, but so far the arrivals appear to be limited to UK customers so far.
But i’m sure customers in other countries who’ve received shipping notices, can expect theres to arrive any day now.
From those that have arrived to date, it appears [...]

Now this isn’t that exciting, but a while back Apple uploaded some CAD files for manufactures and designers who were interested in making cases for the iPhone 4. The drawings gave accurate dimensions and specifications for the iPhone 4 design and body.
Now they were usable, but Core77 has gone one step further and improved on these drawings and made them much more user friendly. They are now overlay-ed on [...]

I brought you the news earlier that Canada will have the option to buy the iPhone 4 unlocked and sim-free for quite a high price.
Well now in Ireland you will also have the option to buy the iPhone 4 unlocked, however if you thought the Canadian iPhone 4 was expensive unlocked, it’s even a little bit more expensive again in Ireland.
It looks like they were looking to round off the numbers a [...]

A couple of weeks ago reports came in that suggested AT&T could possible be restricting upload speeds on the iPhone 4 so as not to crash it’s network. Thankfully this turned out to be wrong, and instead it was an issue with some Alcatel Software bug and AT&T said they would get onto it.
Well today Reuters reports that AT&T are planning on rolling out the software update to their [...]

We’ve just about got over all the iPhone 4 antenna issues for the moment anyway, (even if they haven’t been fixed) but now another culprit is rearing his head.
Users on Apple’s Discussion boards are getting frustrated by issues with the proximity sensor on the iPhone 4. This sensor can tell when you have the phone up against your ear and it blacks out the display to prevent unnecessary battery [...]

With the White iPhone 4 delayed until the later this year, it seems Apple are wasting no time in rolling out the black iPhone 4 to a further 17 countries this Friday, as previously announced by Steve Jobs at their press conference. The iPhone 4 was originally meant to be released to 18 more countries, but it seems that South Korea will have to wait a bit longer due to delays in government approval.
Australia, [...]
