AT&T confirmed today that the apple iPhone 3G will be available without a 2 year contract.

These contractless iPhone’s will be available for $599 for the 8GB or $699 for the 16GB model. But there’s a catch, even though there will be no contract the phone will still be locked so that you can only use it on the AT&T network.

You  will still have to sign up for an iPhone account with AT&T. Although what you could do is cancel your plan and only have to pay for activation fees and a month of service. But all you would be left with is a really expensive WiFi device.

If you really want to you can always jailbreak the iPhone and try to unlock it but, honestly would you really be willing to chance turning that phone into a $700 paper weight?

CNET’s Tom Krazit tried to contact apple to see if the same offer would be available in he apple stores. But unfortunately apple did not respond. So your only way of getting this deal is to buy your iPhone at your local AT&T store.

Reading about the iPhone keynote just wasnt enough for you was it? But then again who could blame you? Every one is sitting on the edge of their seat just to see what kind of features the new iPhone will have.

After the keynote, apple released a recording that is 90 minutes long.

The video might take some time out from your life, but I can almost guarentee you that it will be well worth it. Some say that the guy that did the keynote was “so Jobs-like” that teey sometimes thought steve was off stage using invisible wires to controll him.

Hopefully at the press conference today apple will make these wishes a reality. Read the rest of this entry »

That said, I would have thought that Apple wouldn’t approve of an app that could possibly get one arrested. But with a new app “A Blackjack card counter” that is not the case

You’ve seen the movies where a high-roller playing in a casino gets pulled into a dark room in the back of the casino, where the floor manager of the casino beats the crap out of that guy warning him never to return to the casino.
