By now it’s an accepted fact that Apple is working to kill any and all native third-party application not sanctioned by Mr. Steve Jobs himself.

Apple looking towards Intel chips for next-gen iPhone – Intel Inside iPhone 2.0
Could the next Apple iPhone bear the famous “Intel Inside” sticker that tells everyone that your packing some serious Santa Clara heat? Well, given Apple’s preference for minimalist design and clean lines in their sexy-fied products, it’s not likely that any Apple device will be sporting an “Intel Inside” sticker, much less the iPhone. But,…
Apple’s iPhone is the best thing to happen to the American smartphone industry
Before the iPhone it was considered ridiculous for the mainstream American consumer to purchase a cellphone for more than $100 or $200. Operators would provide heavy subsides on devices with the catch that you had to remain a subscriber for at least 2 years. The iPhone changed all that. It became acceptable to shell out…
Apple still selling iPhones like it’s nobody’s business
In case the completely obvious wasn’t all that obvious, Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster released a report to clients that Apple was still selling iPhones at a higher-than-expected level, following the September 5 price cuts. The 33% price cut heard ’round the world was followed by a 300% increase in iPhone sales, but it seems…

Apple and Orange still negotiating iPhone deal?
Wait, didn’t Orange and Apple just announce their partnership to bring the Apple iPhone to France? In fact, they did – just last week.

Apple kicks up iPhone to version 1.1.1 – WiFi iTunes Music Store, better security, louder volume
Just as we expected, Apple has opened the flood gates on the newest iPhone update (barely getting it in before the week’s end). We’re now in the world of the iPhone version 1.1.1 and it’s looking better than ever. Tipping the scales at a massive 153MB download (via iTunes), the new iPhone v1.1.1 firmware brings…
Apple voiding warranties and blacklisting any unlocked iPhones with third-party apps
Well, we can’t say we weren’t surprised, but it does seem a little excessive to straight-out blacklist any and all iPhones that come in for service brandishing an unlocked GSM radio and/or native third-party applications. Apple is supposed to be neutral on third-party iPhone applications, but they might just take offense to seeing an iPhone…
Apple increases iPhone production after price drop, in preparation for holiday shopping season
So, it looks like Apple has done the obvious, and we have TheStreet.com to thank for the “scoop.” Sources have said that Apple has revised its initial iPhone sales goal of 1.54 million units to an unspecified number, and has increased iPhone production volume to meet the holiday shopping demand. We wouldn’t want to see…

Following on yesterday’s official announcement that the UK iPhone will be the responsibility of UK wireless carrier O2, Apple today announced that the German iPhone carrier will indeed be Deutsch Telekom’s T-Mobile – as we expected.
