Your iPhone Mod

The Apple iPhone is without doubt the most talked about mobile phone on the planet. Its release on the market was much anticipated and in the wake of its success the new iPhone 3Gs has proved to be even more of a smash.

When it comes to Apple, it never fails to disappoint both in technology and design. The bar is raised to such a high level that it is no wonder rival companies have a hard time to out beat or even outsell such quality and brilliance. The iPhone appeals to everyone and with the ability to buy it on a contract deal it has now become affordable to so many more.

Apart from the many amazing features the iPhone offers, there are also thousands of apps to choice from. Anything from directories to games and music to torches, Apple really does have it all covered. It is therefore not surprising that its appeal is so intense and its success global.

The first iPhone sold out no sooner than it reached the market and the next generation iPhone 3Gs is following the same footsteps as its predecessor. Faster and more powerful the iPhone 3Gs is all that of the original iPhone only much better and much more. Because of the vast amount of features the iPhone offers it has the functionality for all needs, which is one of the reasons behind its success. Pure brilliance and pure genius lies in your hands once you become the proud owner of the Apple iPhone or iPhone 3Gs.

It comes at no great surprise that following the success of the popular Apple iPhone, more and more celebrities are wanting to enhance their portfolios by joining forces in the marketing. One such A-Lister is none other than singer Britney Spears.

The way it all works is that famous stars release their very own personal app that allow fans and the general public to become connected the what is going on in their careers. Britney Spears for example has released her own app entitled “It’s Britney” which is designed to work with both the iPhone and iPod Touch. The app itself has various features which allow fans to gain access and knowledge of the star. Up and coming tours, new album releases, personal info and even games are all part and parcel of the bundle. It works well as far as marketing the singer’s career goes whilst at the same time upping the popularity of the actual iPhone.

Such apps are available to download for around the cost of £3 via the iTunes App Store and give users the ability to access regular updates on Twitter and the actual homepage of the app itself. The app designed for Britney Spears has what is known as a sparkler effect function. The works by shaking the phone after the sparkler function has been preset, to let out a light. This enables fans to interact with Britney whilst on stage and is an innovative concept which has triggered a rage for such a novelty effect.

Once you purchase an Apple iPhone you will no doubt want to buy some of the accessories required to optimise the many amazing features the phone has to offer. Apart from a protective case, something which goes without saying if you want to keep the phone in good condition and working order, there are many other essentials well worth considering.

Just about all new mobile phones come with Bluetooth functionality in which case you may wish to buy the best in a Bluetooth headset. Bluetooth allows you to talk on the phone whilst driving or walking about and so you will therefore need something which will guarantee a comfortable fit. The Motorola H17 and the Blueant Q1 are the top choices. But if you prefer to have it on your visor as opposed to in your ear you might go for the Blueant S1 or the BlackBerry VM605.

Although the iPhone comes with Apple’s trademark earbuds there are also different styles of headsets available. The iharmonix Platinum i-series and the v-moda vibe duo both come highly recommended.

Sync’ers and Chargers are other little add-ons which you might want to consider and the Griffin Power Duo charger is the one that has received the most praise. If you want to be able to mount your iPhone in your car then you will need a mount or cradle. The iGrip Custom Fit is the popular choice amongst iPhone users along with the Seidio Inno Dock.

Without doubt there are many accessories for your iPhone, some necessary and some just for show. What you buy really does come does come down to what you require and the choices out there are endless.

The iPhone is without doubt an amazing mobile phone that it doesn’t come cheap and the last thing you want to do is damage or scratch it. In order to protect it from wear and tear you need to consider some form of protective cover.

The market for protective cases for the Apple iPhone is extensive to say the least. There is just about every kind of protective case available in a wide range of materials, styles and colours. When it comes to deciding which one is the best option it really is a personal choice and one person may favour a fashion element more so over a practical one.

IPhone cases come in all different forms but one of the most popular is the leather pouch available in a selection of colours. Most have a belt clip which allows you to free up your hands and carry the phone around with you.

Then there are the soft cases which are mostly made of a rubber plastic shell with a thickness of around 1mm. These are a popular choice amongst the younger iPhone users as they come in some amazing colours and designs. Basically they hug the iPhone like a glove on both sides and come with protective screen films making it fingerprint resistant.

The box case is another popular choice and as it is made of metal it feels as though you are carrying the iPhone au natural when applied. It too comes in a variety of colours and designs.

Whichever case you choose to protect your iPhone is based on your own personal preference combines with how and what you will be sing your iPhone for.

There are over 50,000 downloadable apps available for the Apple iPhone and iPod Touch which cover an enormous spectrum of interests and topics. Many have proved to be unworthy of the time and money spent on them but there are others which are well worth the bother. Below is a list of the top ten apps which have proved to be popular for the year 2009.

The first app is the Midomi Ultra which costs in the region of £3 to download. Midomi allows you to hum a tune that you fail to recognise the title of and immediately provides you with all the relevant details. Lyrics and video clips are reproduced on your iPhone and there are even links to YouTube videos.

In second place is the IPassword Pro app which allows you to store all those important passwords you fail to remember. It also generates random passwords and can paste data into the iPhone’s browser. Flashlight is a free application which comes in at third place. It is a very clever app which converts the screen into a torch when you are in the dark. It has proven to be very popular due to its practicality.

Further top apps include Yelp which functions a bit like Yellow Pages, WorldView Live that provides access to worldwide webcams, NetNewsWire relating to news stories from around the world, and WunderRadio which allows you to tune in to over 36,000 radio stations on your iPhone.

The fake Calls application is also amongst the top ten rated apps from Apple along with Howcast and Chess with friends which are both free to download.

The iPhone 3Gs is the fastest and most powerful of iPhones. Video recording, voice control and up to 32 GB of storage are just some of the amazing features this mobile phone has to offer.

The first feature you notice with the iPhone 3Gs is its speed which is up to 2 times faster than the iPhone 3G. Applications can be launched that much quicker and both web pages and email attachments can be accessed and viewed in a fraction of the time. The overall improved performance and modified graphics make for a fantastic gaming experience allowing for an incredible experience.

In contrast to the iphone the new iPhone 3Gs has a 3 megapixel camera and has built-in focus which enables amazing still photos. As for filming video you can shoot, edit and share with VGA in either portrait or landscape format. The voice control feature is out of this world as you can simply ask your phone to call up your contacts or play a song since it knows all the contact names and music stored on file.

In addition the iPhone 3Gs has a built in digital compass, the ability to rotate the keyboard into landscape position to gain more space on the screen, messaging, internet, cut copy and paste function for words and photos and much more.
