I can recommend the Griffin PowerBlock external battery. I lost my iPhone power cord with the little white adaptor that it came with and went to the Apple store to buy another. For the same price I got the Griffin external battery. It's small and easy to throw in your pocket and it gives my iPhone a quick boost that will last a good few hours.

Two other people I know got one and they're happy with them too.

Has anybody got any news about the Apple Store opening in Greenwich, Connecticut??

Cool, thanks!

I will be surprised if Rogers doesn't try to chisel customers out of some cash once the policy changes.

I'm thrilled that tethering is an option though! I'll be using it up at the cottage all summer!

Yahoooooo!!!

230 MB and about 10 minutes to download - wow!

I love being a nerd!

Well, it's 7 mins past 1 pm in Toronto and iTunes is still telling me that 2.2.1 is the most up to date software!

AAAaaarrrgghH!

All news results from Googling "iPhone 3.0 firmware" seems to consistently say the same thing - which is...

"Apple is expected to release the iPhone 3.0 firmware later on Wednesday, at approximately 10AM Pacific time, or 1PM Eastern. Deployment through iTunes should be roughly synchronous worldwide, for instance occurring at 6PM in the UK, and later in Asia and the rest of Europe. One notable exception is Singapore, which is officially slated to gain the firmware a day later."

Darn! I was really hoping it was 10 am ET but I've been checking for the last twenty minutes and it keeps telling me that 2.2.1 is the current version.

Boy, have I been looking forward to this release!

Thanks for the tip! That app IS fun!!

Flight Of The Conchords should partner up with them and sponsor it through HBO - it's right up the FOTC alley!

Wow, that was a confusing post.

I take my iPhone in the bathroom when I shower and the moisture hasn't affected it (so far!).
