You have seen that mysterious box which claimed to be sent by Apple to Australia reseller. What's inside that box? Someone says there is a new iPhone with a front camera in the box, because he/she unboxed it. Pretty good, huh?But both Gizmodo and Engadget say the photo is fake:From Gizmodo:"I don't even think Apple considers using cardboard in their boxes unless it's covered in a glossy finish."

One "very reliable" but "can't be named" source sent a photo of a Apple box to MacTalk yesterday. As you could see, there are words on the box:"SUBJECT TO TERMS OF NDADO NOT OPEN UNTIL TUESDAY JUNE 10TH, 2008"You know, June 10th is exactly the first day after the WWDC keynote speech where Steve Jobs is expected to announce the new iPhone with 3G or GPS and more.

Readers from both Gizmodo and CrunchGear took some sneak photos on the WWDC show floor in Moscone Center. Surprisedly, one of the banners shows "OS X iPhone". What exactly does that mean? Under the "OS X iPhone", there is a line reads "The world’s most advanced mobile platform." Maybe it is just something about the iPhone OS, App Store and SDK.There is also a "OS X Leopard" banner:For more WWDC

A Taiwanese company said it's one of Apple's component suppliers, and sent some pictures of two kind of touchscreens to iLounge claiming they are being used in the upcoming iPhone. But i just can't believe in this, because those touchscreens only have 2.8” and 3.2” sizes, both are smaller than the current iPhone's screen.Would this imply the coming 3G iPhone(or iPhone2) will have smaller sizes

I got my iPhone jailbroken in the first 30 minutes after i unboxed it. Many thanks to the clever hackers.

I'm a huge iPhone fan, i just love it. But one common problem for iPhone users is the battery of iPhone is non-removable. At least it's no so easy to be removed. Sure you can just ask Apple to do this job for you, but it will cost you 90 dollars.Let's find a much cheaper way. You could just buy a set of the Toolkit for iPhone, it just cost you 7.29 dollars, and it's shipping free. Just 7.29
