Apple really has to get its act together. This concerns policies on approving apps. Take the case of the Bobble Rep-111th Congress Addition app. Supposedly under the developer license agreement, Apple forbids ridiculing public figures. This caricature app was originally rejected but later on approved since they deem caricatures as harmless. So there are loopholes as you can see in their policies but if this was the case, why didn’t they consider that in the first place before rejecting this bobble-head app which you can now get for $0.99 at the app store? A little consistency could really save them the criticism!

Before you go on and pass checking out the mobile device in the image above, this is not an iPhone. It carries the same looks and can deceive you in a sec, but it is really a PinPhone, another copycat to the famed Apple iPhone. It may cater to all the physical attributes of the iPhone but when it comes to accessing the iTune store, don’t bet on it. The PinPhone 3GS is living proof how the Chinese love to come out with their own imitation products and perhaps this gadget is meant to cater to people who can’t afford to get the authentic iPhone 3GS…for now of course.

It seems that there’s a new iPhone virus on the loose and this one is targeting jailbroken iPhones out there. The first one was almost a harmless worm which targeted jailbroken phones in Australia. The worm was programmed to scan the 3G IP ranges of Telus, Optus and Vodafone networks. As soon as those jailbroken iPhone were found the worm would change the wallpaper of the handset to Rick Asteley.

The worm we’re talking about today is based on the one we have just shown you. And you won’t like this second version worm. In fact you’re probably going to hate it as this worm, dubbed as “iPhone/Privacy.A” will send all your e-mail messages, SMS messages, calendar appointments, contacts, photos, music files, videos and any other data stored by your iPhone apps to a third party.

Of course in order for both worms to work your jailbroken has to have the default root password in place. Once you change that, you’re going to be safe for the time being.

The iPhone is not a new thing to UK customers as it has been around for a while now. But Orange has just started to offer Apple’s phone to its customers as O2 has lost its iPhone exclusivity.

The initial reports are saying that Orange has sold over 30,000 units which is not a bad number for the first day. It seems that the Orange iPhone is turning out to be such a success as Orange offers a wider coverage than its competition. Will the iPhone be a success if Verizon started selling it in the USA right now?

The good news for O2 iPhone owners is that their carrier will unlock the iPhone starting today. Simply go to a O2 store and see if you qualify for the procedure.

And last but not least, we will remind you that Vodafone is also going to sell the iPhone so you might want to wait before buying one from Orange or O2.
