also comes equipped with A-GPS, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, a 2GB memory card and

Apple iPhone for $250? It could cost a lot more, nearly $1000!
Although the iPhone will hit Australian shores on July 11, and although
Steve Jobs noted there would be price parity worldwide, don’t take that
as any guarantee of what the final iPhone 3G price will be. And that’s
not even counting the monthly voice and data charges!

Telstra vs Optus: iPhone 3G, revenues and you
Telstra’s legal letter to Optus shows that Telstra hates losing, and
until Telstra announces it has the iPhone 3G too, it’s the big loser in
the iPhone 3G stakes. What are the facts on coverage issues?

iPhone 3G: Telstra slams Optus over allegedly misleading 3G claims
Exclusive: Telstra has seriously questioned Optus statements over its
900MHz 3G network, saying it is “concerned that Optus may represent to
customers that they can enjoy a range of 3G features and services...
[but that those] features and services will not be available if the 3G
device is incompatible with Optus’ 3G 900 Mhz network”. Although
Telstra didn’t mention the iPhone 3G, the timing coincides with recent
comments from Optus CEO Paul Sullivan.

Optus iPhone 3G pricing leak - plus Vodafone and Optus only offering GPRS for rural iPhone 3Gs?
Leaked Optus iPhone 3G pricing details inside! Plus Vodafone and Optus
are building out their respective 3.5G HSDPA networks to 95%+ of the
Australian population by the end of 2008. But with the vast majority of
that rollout set to use 900MHz equipment, the iPhone 3G could well be
the iPhone 2G for many.

3G iPhone: tri-band HSDPA 850/1900/2100MHz leak news!
Engadget has had details from the 3G iPhone firmware leaked which seem
to confirm a tri-band HSDPA chips are within for 850, 1900 and 2100MHz.
It’s great news for AT&T, Rogers and Telstra, but not so good news
for Vodafone, Optus and other 900MHz HSDPA carriers?

Final pre-June 9 WWDC proof of a 3G iPhone?
With 6 days to go before the 3G iPhone is unveiled by Steve Jobs, the
announcement that Softbank, a 3G carrier in Japan, will also sell the
iPhone “later this year” is yet more proof the 3G iPhone is real. And
is coming much sooner than “later this year” might indicate!

3 doesn't ditch dongle, just releases new one
Don’t want the ‘soap-on-a-rope’ 3.5G mobile broadband USB modem dongle
dangling from the back of your laptop or desktop PC? Three releases a
new one that looks like a USB memory stick – but if it doesn’t fit
properly you might need a short USB extension cable anyway. So much for
wire free!

Telstra's $0 laptop with mobile broadband: ho-hum or yee-hah?
Anyone with an ABN (Australian Business Number), i.e. a business owner,
can now go to selected retailers to take advantage of a “$0 upfront”
laptop with 1GB of Next G mobile broadband per month, for AUD $99 per
month. Is it really a good deal, or could you do better by yourself?

Vodafone iPhone pre-registration... what happened?
With all the news that iPhone deals are happening with telcos around
the world, including Vodafone and Optus in Australia, an eagle eyed

Australia’s home page came – and went. Has Vodafone lost access to the
world’s most desirable digital device, the (presumed 3G) iPhone?

Quad-band 3G iPhone to 'qonquer' the world?
In my previous 3G iPhone article, noting that Optus and Vodafone had

which any iPhone should also support. In addition, Vodafone answered
