Now that the iPhone 4 is out, there are issues starting to show themselves. The one problem that Apple has acknowledged is the issues with reception. The best way to fix the problem is by changing phones or calling Apple to see what can be done. The easier way to fix the reception problem is by buying the Vapor case from Element Case.

The Vapor case for the iPhone 4 is made out of material that acts as a non-conductive barrier that will eliminate reception problems when holding the phone with your bare hands. The great thing about this case is that it has shock absorbing material on the inside of the case. This keeps your iPhone from being damaged when dropped, as it will probably happen at least once in the phone’s life. Not only does the Vapor case have practical benefits but will give your iPhone a sophisticated and clean look. This clean look is kept by having the on/off button designed into the Vapor case. This iPhone case will give you function and a great look as well.

The iPhone has many different types of accessories available to make the use of the iPhone more enjoyable and also to protect the iPhone itself. Some of the accessories are expensive, like the home docks, and some of the accessories are cheap as chips. One of these inexpensive iPhone accessories is the iAngle.

The iAngle is designed to do two different things. One of them is that it is made to store your earbuds so that they don’t get tangled in a bag or purse. The other function of the iAngle is to hold your iPhone or iPod up so that it makes video viewing easier. This accessory is something so simple and perfect for those who travel because it fits perfecting just about anywhere without taking up much room. Long road trips are easier with the iAngle because you can use your iPhone and still be hands free to check maps or watch movies. Never again will you spend minutes to hours trying to untangle your earbuds or have to hold your iPhone to watch movies. The iAngle will only set you back $10.

MP3 players are a great way to be on the go with music in your pocket. MP3 players have become so popular that many of the new mobile phones are being produced with MP3 players built in. This can be seen with the iPhone. One of the downsides to owning something like the iPhone is that if you want to listen to music at home you have to use the mobile phone’s speakers or listen with earphones. There is another choice if you want to listen to the music on your iPhone and that is the Pioneer AV Series XW-NAV1K-K.

The Pioneer AV Series XW-NAV1K-K is certified to work with your iPhone. This iPhone dock has a 2 channel dynamic digital amplifier, USB port for media playback and composite video output. This dock will allow you to enjoy not only great sounds but also video for the perfect entertainment. The Pioneer XW-NAV1K-K has been designed to be a all in one mini home theater system. Another great feature of this iPhone dock is that you can rip CDs to flash drives if you choose. The Pioneer AV Series XW-NAV1K-K is available for pre-order at Amazon for just under $300.

So you have an iPhone that has tons of applications that allow you to watch movies and other multimedia things but you don’t know what to do or wish that you had a bigger screen to watch videos on. Well now there is a multimedia projector that has been made for the iPhone. The MiLi iPhone projector is the newest addition to the endless possibilities that are available with the iPhone. One of the greatest benefits of the MiLi iPhone projector is that it is portable.

Along with the ability to take this projector anywhere you take your iPhone you get other great benefits. The maximum size of the projection is 70 inches and can be projected onto any surface that you have available. It features built in speakers, a fully adjustable focus and a convenient stand. The MiLi iPhone projector measures 14.8 x 7 x 4.1 cm and can fit anywhere you need it to. Along with the projector, you get a remote that will control the tint, volume, contrast and other menu options. There is a AV in/out function that allows this projector to be connected to other devices as well as being compatible with the iPod Classic and iPod Touch. This MiLi iPhone projector will offer you endless possibilities for your viewing pleasure.

Ordering room service using an iPhone or an iPod Touch is one the most interesting things I’ve heard regarding Apple’s products. Apparently Malibu Beach Inn is trying to attract people that are in love with their touchscreens and won’t let go of the fancy brick, no matter what.

The hotel has a web application built for the Safari Browser, that allows all iPhone/iPod Touch users to access remote capabilities like room service, setting a wake up call, requesting luggage, renting a limo and flipping the door placard to “Do Not Disturb”. Does that mean that geeks are lazy or is it just a nice way of saying we love you Apple freaks, come stay at our hotel for a couple of nighs to play with the system. Not sure if any geek will afford something like the Malibu Beach Inn though.

There are times when you don’t have your high class DSLR with you, but only your telephone, and you need to zoom in more to get a clear shot of something stunning, amazing, incredible, etc. What do you do? Until now, there were not many solutions, but Brando found the niche and is now exploiting it. Their new add-on telescope was designed for the 3G iPhone, and other than looking incredible weird it’s going to improve things 6 times (zoom I mean).

My honest opinion? I don’t think the pictures are that good so you’d better go for a pocket camera to keep it in the other pocket of your jeans next to your iPhone if you plan to sneak on someone. Brando’s iPhone Telescope is going to cost $19 if you don’t!

God, i hate timezone! Why? Because the New Zealand people will get to have the new iPhone3G first, on the 11th.

But i guess I can wait a day before I can get mine, or not. You can either pre-order it from O2, but get only one per customer and on a first come, first served basis, or you can order it and have it delivered to your door though iTunes.

Just so you get an idea of how much us mortals want and need the iPhone, O2 sold out the 16GB version in just 3 hours.

I think I made my poing. Over and out.

Apple just bought the iphone.com domain for $7 million from Michael Kovatch. Mike bought the domain in 1995 when the phones still had wires and we weren’t expecting anything with touchscreen.

I’m not sure if they’re going to give us iPhone reviews on the site or hot news about the “best cellphone in the world” as some may call it, but we’re prepared. There are info about the revolutionary features of the iPhone, rate plans, specifications or how to get started using it. Cellphones evolve, so to be honest I was expecting something like this, though it wasn’t that figure I was counting on.

Good job to Mike selling the domain and to Steve buying it, as DomainTools reports. If you’re visiting iphone.com you’ll be sent to Apple’s iPhone page from now on, so go ahead and try it.

That’s the price paid for an golden iPhone at an auction on eBay. The auction gathered many enthusiasts, toting up 69 bids. The winner identity wasn’t disclosed, perhaps he or she didn’t want to get friends attention.

The 16GB model was meticulously disassembled and then plated with pure 24Kt gold by iCandyPhones manufacturer. I believed the iPhone would have looked better if had been plated with platinum.

The phone is unlocked and works with any GSM operator worldwide. In my opinion the phone looks too flashy for anybody who’s not a pimp.

Perhaps you already know that Apple’s online store engraves the gadgets bought from there. That’s great, but they only offer text engraving. I have discovered Engrave, a Portland-based company that personalize gadgets, smartphones or laptops. They use laser engraving and I am telling you, their work is impressive.

iPhones, iPods, MacBooks or any other cool gadgets can be personalized for your Valentine. That is a great gift for Valentine’s Day. Furthermore, the costs for laser engraving are acceptable. For example an iPhone engraving would cost $50, an iPod nano just $35, while a personalized laptop would cost you between $100-$150 depending on its size.

You can come up with your own designs, made in Adobe Illustrator or Corel Draw with a minimum resolution of 200 dpi. So, if you want to surprise your sweetie contact the Engrave offices for a request. They also engrave other objects, but first you should make an inquire. I do not know if they accept requests from outside US, but you should give it a try, there is enough time until Valentine’s Day arrives.
