A killer title to redefine mobile gaming? Probably not, but this is a serious waste of time for owners of Apple’s hot selling handheld computers.

Although there are no really major, widespread problems, there have been a few snags in Apple’s introduction of the new iPhone 3GS, including short supply and overheating.
This morning my daugher came to me distraught, iPod nano in hand. It had crashed with the words “Connect to Power” fixed on the screen.
Pressing the home button has gotten more useful with the release of iPhone OS 3.0. In addition to waking your handheld or returning you to the home screen from any application or page, you can do other neat stuff like bring up Spotlight, control iPod music and video, or even custom configure what the home button does.
With all the publicity about the success of the Apple App store, you may have asked yourself about what you need to do to write an iPhone application. Here’s your answer.
There is some question as to which new smartphone is the fastest, with some tests giving the Palm Pre the nod in some areas. Now a new test shows that the new iPhone 3GS is faster in another.
We’re all well aware of how iPhone users dominate the use of the mobile Internet. Now, there’s a new statistic that deepens the trend, and it’s so cutting it simply bleeds.
Although the new operating system has received overwhelmingly positive reviews, the great majority of those Apple’s other handheld computer aren’t seeing the value. Is this a question of too high an asking price or is it that there’s just not enough on offer to be worth the trouble?
Although the baked cost is marginally higher than last year’s 8GB iPhone, today’s product is much faster, and offers double the memory and storage capacity while maintaining Apple’s profit margins. All told an admirable feat in the face of increasing competition on the hardware front.
It has been a long time coming, but Apple is now issuing approvals for the first iPhone apps to make use of the new push notification feature developed especially for iPhone OS 3.0.
