iPhone 4
Review: ZAGGsparq 2.0
We’re living in a mobile technology world, and I am a mobile technology…guy. I am, in fact, a mobile technology power-user, especially when it comes to press events and conventions. My iPhone 4 acts as my notepad, camera, video camera, audio recorder, phone, and full mobile web interface. Without it, I would be lost.

iPhone 4 on T-Mobile…with Working 3G?
Past iPhones have been unable to access T-Mobile’s 3G network due to a difference in frequencies between AT&T and T-Mobile, AT&T using the 1900MHz frequency, and T-Mobile using the 1700/2100MHz frequencies. Since AT&T uses the 1900MHz frequency for 3G, this is what iPhone’s have been manufactured with the ability to support, meaning that an unlocked iPhone operating on T-M...[Read More]
