I have been keeping a running list of all the EXCELLENT information that has been pouring out regarding the 3G iPhone.
Here is a short wrap-up of what we have learned in recent days.
We now know for a fact that…

A few sites have got instructions up today for how to find and use the iPhone ringtone that was used in several of the TV ads - the one that is talked about as ‘missing’ since Apple didn’t choose to include it amongst the standard ringtones.
Apparently if you’ve got iLife ‘08, you can find the sound file for this on your Mac, at:
/Library/Audio/Apple Loops/Apple/iLife Sound Effects/Work - Home/Cell Phone Ringing.aif
You can then use these excellent instructions for converting it to a ringtone.
You can also just grab the file HERE in ringtone format already, if you can’t be bothered with mastering the Garageband technique.
Personally, I don’t find this ringtone that captivating, but there ya go, I know lots of folks fancy this one …

Sometimes the initial infatuation is strong but quickly diminishes as time goes on.
It happens with romantic connections.
It happens with friendships.
It even happens with technology. (Like my friend who just ordered her sixth notebook in almost as many months. She makes my technology habits look downright tame by comparison and that’s not particularly easy these days. Her routine goes like this– Buy it. Love it. Use it. Find fault with it. Sell it. I kid you not!)
If you follow JAiB you know that Patrick, Brandon and I were all initially smitten with Evernote. We positively gushed over it and were thrilled to hand out so many Beta invites to this innovative service.
But what happens when the initial "WOW" wears off? Can something that quickly starts off so positively possibly remain anywhere near as good?
YOU BETCHA!!! Especially when…

Wow, talk about iPhone apps that will chew up *big* chunks of your time - I am finding vWallpaper is now near the top of that list for me. If you haven’t discovered it yet, vWallpaper is the new video wallpaper app for the iPhone - and I’ve been having tons of fun playing around with it tonight.
Here’s some of the cool ways I’ve been finding to get even more ‘Wow’ factor out of this fun application:
In order to have vWallaper see and use the videos that you find or create, you need to copy them (via SSH or your preferred method) to this directory for the latest version (0.5): /var/mobile/Media/Skrew/Videos
I’m sure there are much more clever things you can do to customize and spice up your video wallpapers on the iPhone, especially if you know what you’re up to in iMovie (which I absolutely do not) - but just the above methods are providing a lot of fun and entertainment for me tonight.

When the 3G iPhone is introduced this summer, AT&T, the exclusive U.S. iPhone sales partner with Apple, will cut the price by as much as $200, according to a person familiar with the strategy.
AT&T is preparing to subsidize $200 of the cost of a new iPhone, bringing the price down to $199 for customers who sign two-year contracts, the source says. Apple is expected to have two versions of the new iPhone, an 8-gigabyte-memory and a 16-gigabyte-memory model with price tags widely expected to be $399 and $499.
So says the Techland blog on the CNNmoney.com site. They’ve also got some math in their post about how quickly AT&T could get their money back on any subsidy by way of the data plans all iPhone users have to fork out for and through just standard subscription costs.
This is all from another of those famous ‘un-named’ sources - but hey, this is definitely my favorite rumor of the week, or the month of April even

Some very nice news today from Erica Sadun - one of our favorite iPhone developers (and also an excellent writer on all things iPhone and iPod Touch). She has updated the Xlaunch - iPhone application launching app - to work with the new 2.0 iPhone firmware:
The new 2.0 SDK version of XLaunch combines all the features you use and love in the 1.1.4 version plus several new options. I’m pleased that I was able to upgrade the application without losing features along the way–and especially happy that I was able to merge MakeItMine and Banner in without destroying the simple interface.
You can still launch webclips and badge apps, and assign applications to the home key for double-taps. You can still browse in both table or coverflow modes.
I’m already a big fan of Xlaunch - it’s my preferred way of speeding up the process of finding and launching apps. This new version sounds even better, especially for those who are fans of Erica’s MakeItMine and Banner apps - as you can now also set carrier text and the banner text via the Customize options within Xlaunch. And Erica is looking for suggestions on any further features anyone would like to see added to Xlaunch. Go HERE to share your thoughts on that …

The day has finally come for Canadians (this is not an April Fools joke)! Ted Rogers this morning issued a press release that confirmed the iPhone is coming in Canada! The company has finally come to terms with the big Apple. Here is the quote from Mr. Rogers himself:
“We’re thrilled to announce that we have a deal with Apple to bring the iPhone to Canada later this year,” said president Ted Rogers in a statement. “We can’t tell you any more about it right now, but stay tuned.”
Hurrah for Canada! And about time too. No details yet on pricing, or when it may launch - but there are already rumors that it may be the 3G version that launches there.
Here’s hoping Canadian users get a decent unlimited data plan to go with the iPhone when full details do emerge …

Last week we finally got ourselves in gear (a bit) and got ourselves setup to do a weekly TalkShoe ‘Talkcast’. It’s called Just Another iPhone Chat, and our first ever episode will be live tonight at 11:00 Eastern.
We had a lot of fun doing a trial run last week, and we’re hoping that the weekly shows will be big fun. The great thing with Talkshoe is that it’s *very* interactive - you can talk via the live chat client, or call in and ask questions, share a cool tip, or tell us about a topic you’d like to talk about. We hope you’ll join in and do plenty of that - that’ll make it a lot more fun for all of us!
To join in, just click on the graphic above or go HERE to get to our show’s page - then at 11pm tonight you can choose to join via a simple web client, or download the Pro version, or you can call in to 724-444-7444 and enter our Call ID, which is: 18509.
From that same page, you can also listen to the show online or download the MP3 if you don’t catch it live, subscribe to it via RSS, choose to follow us on TalkShoe, and all that sorta good stuff.
Contest / Case Giveaway
We’ll also be running a little giveaway contest during the live show tonight. We’ve got a very nice iPhone case to giveaway, and a pretty tough iPhone trivia question to help determine our winner
Hope some of you will find time to join us tonight …

It’s been a good while since I’ve used a Windows Mobile device on a regular basis, but two of my *essential* apps when I was using one were Pocket Informant and Note2Self (formerly known as Voiceminder), both produced by WebIS.
WebIS has big plans for Pocket Informant and Note2Self on the iPhone - and I’ve had a chance to catch up with Alex Kac, the CEO at WebIS, over the last few days and talk to him a little about plans for these apps and a couple other topics.
For those who haven’t tried these apps out, Note2Self is a slick voice-notes program that makes it a no-effort process to create a new voice note and email it to yourself or others; and Pocket Informant is the leading PIM program on Windows Mobile, providing Contacts / Calendar / Tasks management and more in a very powerful and hugely feature-rich package.
