Sales of iPhone 3GS are already a fact, but soon after their launch on the Web began to emerge complaints related to excessive heating of the phone. More interesting is that the complaints come from users of the iPod touch and iPhone 3G, which are updated software components to the new version iPhone OS 3.0. The problem is so serious that even leads to a change in color of the body, clearly visible in white versions of the phone. Heating not only affects the rear panel of the devices, but also the front, as consumers complain that at times (in a game, using GPS, surfing the web over Wi-Fi) unbearable heat makes it impossible to use them. As usual, Apple maintained silence.

Apple announced that for the three trading days after the premiere of the new iPhone 3GS they sold 1 million units. In addition, the company announced that the new iPhone 3.0 OS has been downloaded 6 million times in the first 5 days after placing it on the Web. In other news related to Apple, Wall Street Journal wrote this weekend that the company boss Steve Jobs who withdrew for health reasons from the management at the beginning of the year, has undergone liver transplant and recovered successfully. He is expected to return to Apple by the end of the month, will initially work part-time working day.

Thanks to the midnight premiere of the iPhone 3G S in France, Rapid Repair already published material, which tell how the device is disconnected and show us pictures of its parts. Of them we can understand that the phone processor is a work of Samsung (S5PC100) and not only at frequency 600MHz is 1.5 times faster than that in the iPhone 3G, but the architecture is based on the ARM Cortex A8.

Day after it was officially released, the third version of the iPhone operating system was penetrated. Hackers group iPhone Dev Team has released software tool called ultrasn0w, which allows to remove the tie to a mobile operator. Hackers have published in their blog a video demonstrating the capabilities of ultrasn0w.

Representative of the Dev Team with nickname MuscleNerd reported that the group intends to break the protection on the new smartphone to Aplle – iPhone 3G S. In the spring of last year, developers of the Dev Team hack software 2.0 for iPhone, and in December puncture protection and the iPhone 3G. To that purpose, the program used was yellowsn0w.

The new iPhone OS 3.0 platform was presented on March 17 this year, and now the operating system can be downloaded from the iTunes Store. Innovation allows owners of iPhone features copy / cut / paste, search, and improved ability to send MMS.

iPhone users are certainly an interesting group, because the agencies do not stop to research their habits and behavior. The latest data is from AdMob, who are interested in demographic characteristics and behavioral characteristics of users of iPhone and iPod touch in the U.S.. Any 5 of 10 users of both devices commonly used in mobile Internet than reading newspapers.
