iPhone Life magazine has now an app for iPhone
Hal Goldstein owns a company that was publishing formerly, in USA, a print magazine about Windows Mobile. Then he dumped it and created print magazine about iPhone called “iPhone Life”. Business model of Hal is to use unpaid enthusiasts to create content and with “iPhone Life” he is repeating this trick again.
The “iPhone Life” app is basically just a bunch of links and we are amazed that Apple has approved it at all:

Nice video of the Xperia X10
Blimey, two Xperia stories in one day? The phonescoop takes a look at the gorgeous Sony Ericsson Xperia X10. I know, I know the X3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 were oddly skipped out, perhaps they will release a bunch of phone with lesser specs around the same time. However, I can safely say from the video, I want one.

Is the gPhone real?
Many have thought that after the announcement of Google Android, it would be the last we’ve heard of the Google Gphone. Apparently, the GPhone is not only software but also hardware. More precisely, Google is actually making a phone.
Techcrunch is saying that the Google Phone will be more exciting than the Motorola Droid and even the following super Android phones that will come–Droid and the HTC Dragon will serve as a warm up to–how do we say, The One?
Google will not instantly go to manufacturing–the phone will be made by a big mobile company, perhaps Motorola again? Google is said to be in total control, though, as far as design and specs, and the phone will not carry any other brand but Google’s. The manufacturer could be Taiwanese or Korean, but the safe bet goes to either LG or Samsung. The Google Phone will be backed up by a major advertising drive. It’s going to be Apple vs Google after today and in the foreseeable future, and Google will have another solid source of revenue, besides their Adwords.

No 6.5 for Xperia X1
According to wmpoweruser there is to be no 6.5 update for the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1. This will probably anger a number of people out there as the phone is quite popular. Read on for the full article:
Smashing earlier rumours that suggested an official Windows Mobile 6.5 update for the Xperia X1 will be coming, Sony Ericsson has confirmed the contrary to CNet Asia.
Some owners may be rightfully upset by this, as the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 has been one of the more expensive handsets of recent times, and while ROM’s are available on XDA-Developers they are not blessed with official updated drivers, meaning they would have issues not present in an official release.
The device joins other premium devices such as the HTC Touch HD in not getting updates to the latest version of Microsoft’s mobile OS.

T-Mobile’s employees selling your personal information
In a follow up to this story I noticed a post on Pocket Gamer naming the company. That would be T-Mobile. read on for more:
[Editor's note: the title of this story originally read 'Mobile operator under investigation...' After publication the operator in question was revealed as T-Mobile. The text of the story is unaltered.]
The Information Commissioner’s Office has told BBC News that staff at one of the UK’s major mobile network operator’s are under investigation for selling customer data to brokers, who then forwarded the information to rival companies that called customers as contracts came to an end.
The firm in question (which hasn’t been named) apparently alerted the privacy watchdog after it became suspicious of the private data trading, and has since been aiding investigators in uncovering the details.
"We are considering the evidence with a view to prosecuting those responsible and I am keen to go much further and close down the entire unlawful industry in personal data," Information commissioner Christopher Graham said, adding, "The existing paltry fines… are simply not enough to deter people from engaging in this lucrative criminal activity. The threat of jail, not fines, will prove a stronger deterrent."
The case highlights the profitability of selling private data, which is illegal without the customer’s express permission, and the Ministry of Justice is currently considering tougher penalties for illegal data trading.
