I'm back after an unexpected absence! And as I return I'm bombarded with this crap!

I mean I know the White iPhone is on high demand, but is it really worth this amount?

Over at Expansys the White iPhone had the price set at £920! if your from the USA that's $1,481! Would anyone really pay that much for a different coloured iPhone? Pfft, not me.

At this time they have removed the price so that it doesn't cause anymore uprise.

Below is the screenshot of this ridiculous offer.

Ever wanted to run Android on your iPhone? Yeah me too! Using tools such as iPhoDroid can install Android from a computer good and well but have you ever wanted an easy way? For anyone who wants to try out iPhoDroid for themselves here's the link : iPhoDroid.

Although it only works on the iPhone 2G, 3G and iPod Touch 2G they are working on all the recent versions and said that the next version will have full iPhone 4 support.

So are you wondering how to do it straight from Cydia? Well now you can with Bootlace!

Tutorial

First make sure that you meet all the requirements and that your device and jailbreak is supported.

Supported Devices, iOS, Jailbreak.

iPhone 2G:
3.1.2
3.1.3

iPhone 3G:
3.1.2
3.1.3
4.0
4.0.1
4.0.2
4.1

Jailbreaks
PwnageTool
Redsn0w ( not 0.9.6b2 for now )
Blackra1n

if your iPhone comes under this category then your all good! (for all iPod touch 2G users, according to a lot of sources this can be hit and miss so try at your own risk).

Firstly you need to add a source to Cydia. The source is http://repo.neonkoala.co.uk after you have installed this source go to Bootlace and install it.

Once Bootlace has installed, open it from your Springboard and install 'OpeniBoot'. From here then click on 'iDroid'.

Once 'iDroid' is installed you have now successfully dual-booted your device with the Android OS!

All updates are done through the Bootlace application so it's all easy!:)

Apple Inc. are now in the process of making cheaper lower spec iPhones to try adn ward off the big Android take over by Google Inc. One version of the new iPhones will be a little bit smaller and cheaper than the most recent iPhone (iPhone4) which will apparently open them to the wider market compared to Android.

“Instead of targeting 25 percent of the global mobile- phone market, Apple would be going after 100 percent,”

In the recent 4th quarter of the global smartphone market, Google's shares have more than tripled to 32.9% which completely eclipses the market share Apple has which is around 16%. Also since Nokia and Microsoft have gotten into the smartphone rat race, it has put Apple in much more of a pickle!

Apple have said that they will sell the new cheaper iPhones at around £125/$200 which is a big downsize compared to the £500/$700 iPhones on sale at them moment. They are also releasing these new phones without the annoying 2 year fixed contract. So it's pay as you go all the way!

Apparently the new prototype was about a 3rd smaller than the iPhone 4 and had no home button on the model. Although these new iPhones will be a lot cheaper according to Apple the components will be similar to those on the latest iPhone as by the time they are released the technology will be a little cheaper and the new iPhones will have much better specs.

Also with Apple trying to make the iOS more versatile it might be a steady contender to the Google Android OS.
