Watch Out, Hackers Could Take Over Your iPhone!!!

Apple

To all of you who have ever engaged in the BlackBerry versus iPhone debate, well, I hate to say it, but BlackBerry-toting owners are laughing today. It appears that the iPhone has a major flaw—it can be hacked via text messages. I know, I know, it’s terrifying. But try to remain calm. Take a deep breath and keep reading.

Is The iPhone The New Vehicle Of The Porn Industry?

iphone

What is Apple’s stance on pornographic iPhone applications? The company has been fighting off some bad press lately after having to ban two super sexy applications that slipped through the cracks (no pun intended). The problems came from “hot or not” type apps, which allow users to upload suggestive pictures of women (or young girls, sigh). While one company’s rule states no nude photos are allowed, bikini and lingerie shots are okay. The user-generated content is monitored, but not reviewed in detail.

Mac Gets A Girlfriend

We had long wondered what kind of girl the personification of a Mac computer would go for—and now we know. A new commercial pits Mac (Justin Long) against PC (John Hodgman) as they try to win a woman’s attention. Since it’s a Mac commercial, Mac wins. Who is this mystery lady? Says she: “I’m a Megan.”

    The 16 Best iPhone Applications That Won’t Bore The Heck Out Of The Ladies

    iPhone

    Dudes, I love my iPhone. It is the best thing to happen to me since the invention of Trader Joe’s frozen mac ‘n’ cheese. That’s why today is a super exciting day for current iPhone owners AND people who have been holding out for a second generation model. The iPhone 3G is out today and in addition to the new model, Apple is opening the doors to their App Store, giving users access to hundreds of awesome (and awesomely stupid) applications. I decided to pick out the 16 best new apps that I think Frisky readers would enjoy. That list, after the jump…

    UPDATE: Just so ya know, if you have an old iPhone and you’re trying to update the software, be warned that lots of people are having problems and that the update is causing their phone to crash, including our own Emily. [Engadget]
