Even with all that money being spent on “zips” of purple kush, pot-heads across the US have driven over 1000 paid downloads of the “highest” iPhone app, recently launched on the AppStore. The Cannabis iPhone app, for those of you with (ahem) memory problems, gives iPhone-wielding smokers a quick and easy way to find the…

Google Latitude on iPhone and why Google is bypassing AppStore
Google Latitude for iPhone is finally here! The sorta-creepy, friend-tracking service from Google has finally hit the iPhone. Sure, BlackBerry and Android users have been playing with the Google Latitude service for eons already, but, like they say, better late than never.

One third of iPhone hopefuls shun iPhone due to AT&T network
AT&T really needs the iPhone, but the iPhone doesn’t need AT&T. That little fact alone is probably enough to give Apple’s Tim Cook reason to look for another iPhone carrier in the US.

If you’re an old-school gamer, you might remember the 16-bit game era where Super Nintendo and SEGA Genesis were the only two home consoles of choice. The battle between the two consoles was fierce, and to this day, a victor has yet to be decided as to who had the better console, Nintendo or SEGA.…

Poll: Is your AT&T iPhone’s Visual Voicemail on the fritz?
There’s a sizable uproar building over the iPhone’s Visual Voicemail system crapping out for many AT&T iPhone users.
