Paris-based computer security firm Intego late last week said it had released the first antivirus software for Apple's iPhone handset.
People were apparently switching their brains off before joining the 3G iPhone queues, so it's somewhat surprising that considering an appropriate amount of storage was quite a high priority for many buyers.
I can't wait for the new iPhone to come out mainly because I'm so dog-tired of listening to the never-ending screeds of rumour mongering nonsense speculating on what functionality the device will have that come out every single day. So I've decided to join in. I'm 100 per cent convinced the new iPhone will run Vista and have WiMax connectivity. In fact I'd bet my house on it.
Good news, everyone -- after all these months of waiting, I can finally reveal which operator will be bringing the iPhone to Australia. And the winner is ...
A "jailbreak" Web site created earlier this week is already attracting hordes of iPhone and iPod Touch users who want to free their devices from the digital shackles attached by Jobs and co.
Steve Jobs' backflip on a key aspect of the iPhone stood out from a normal day -- broadband furore, antagonistic marketing, personal attacks and government inaction -- in the world of Australia's telecoms market.

At the AlwaysOn Summit at Stanford University, CIOs discuss the iPhone and whether they plan to use them across their companies. They also talk about the difficulty in supporting new platforms and in keeping company confidentiality.
iTunes 7 includes some great updates, like gapless playback, games downloads and a better interface, but Australian users so far miss out on the movie downloads available to American users.

Only two iPhones were on public display at Macworld but CNET.com.au's Jeremy Roche managed to get hold of one. Here's his verdict.
Adobe's Media Player is an excellent application that is beautifully designed and easy to use. Shame about the currently available content.
The i-mate Ultimate 9502 is the larger sibling of the i-mate 8502, and shares the honour of being Australia's first HSUPA phone. While we believe this phone is in the same league as a BlackBerry or the iPhone, be wary of Telstra's promised internet speeds.
