Today’s iPhone awareness day, with a new model and a new version of firmware and the launch of a whole bunch of new applications. Rock Daily has a list of the music apps worth your download. (Engadget‘s got the breakdown for general apps.) I’d confirm but that would have required successfully updating and installing the 2.0 firmware. Instead the iTunes/iPhone sync crashed mid-install and I’m left with an iPhone that is iFrozen and does iNothing. Thanks for the brick, Apple!

    man, bullshit. you motherfuckers have been whipped into shape pretty well by the cellular companies and by apple. you think you actually NEED this stupid thing, that it’s actually going to change your life.

    you know what would change your life? paying attention to what your government has been up to secretly for the last 4-6 years. enjoy your iphone while you’re stripsearched at the airport, while your hard drive is downloaded and the data saved during the security check, while your internet searches are catalogued and used by the telecommunications companies without them having to worry about recourse.

      everyone should use a VPN to anonymize themselves online (such as Relakks) and use only prepaid mobile phones

    guys guys, stereogum mobile app.

    i must demand that someone makes this.

  10. I love having my own iPhone as soon as possible. I’m so glad that there are new applications available. By the way, what’s the difference between the old and new versions of firmware?

  11. Great! I love the new apps!

    Grover, really….commentary on non-essentials? Let’s examine. You entered a response on a music blog….from a computer.

    I wonder if starving children in india could eat the computer you typed your response on for nourishment?
