Have you been trying to get your iPhone unlocked so you can use it on another GSM provider besides AT&T?

If you’ve been confused about the different methods discussed as of late, or if you’re dubious and wondering if they’re all even real, you might want to swing by iphoneSimFree.

To alleviate everyone’s doubts, they have links on their news page to two stories with video walk-through’s of the unlocking process from two of the most reputable gadget sites around:

Engadget: HD video: iPhone unlocked on camera from start to finish

Gizmodo: iPhone Software Unlock Confirmed on Video

Of course, if you’re in the US and aren’t on a GSM network, you’re pretty much screwed as iPhones go. You might have some success duct taping your current phone to one of those sexy new iPod touch models, though.

I’ve seen some bizarre USB devices in my time, and this one doesn’t disappoint.

I am 99% sure that I’ve never thought to myself, while shaving, that it would be just perfect if I could carry some mp3s or maybe a few video files on the same device. In fact, shaving is so far down on my list of favourite activities that I’m usually thinking of nothing so much as getting it over with as fast as possible.

Make sure you look good…

…while performing industrial espionage.

Of course, if someone made a USB straight razor, I’d be all over that. That would be so hot, in a steampunk sort of way.

Samsung’s got a new phone coming your way. It is wicked thin, comes with a 3megapixel camera, 70MB of space and a 2.2-inch LCD with 240×320 resolution.

for the full release specs, head on over to Samsung.

So this Japanese fella by the name of Masaaki Nagumo has created an 11-foot, 1-ton, air-gun-equipped mech. And it can be yours for the low price of 315,000 American Dollars.

T-Mobile is planning on banning “technobabble” from their sales pitches and training their customer service and sale staff to use easy-to-understand language rather than the tech-talk that has been common place.

Onecompare.com reports the following in regards to T-Mobile’s research:

T-Mobile have found that 57% of us are confused, frustrated and bored with technology jargon. Features are usually abbreviated, for example voice over internet protocol is known as VoIP. T-Mobile found that over 1/3 of Britons don’t know what VoIP is with 1 in 10 thinking it can improve visibility for the visually impaired! When it actually allows you to make discounted phone calls over the internet. 6% of people forget sales advice by the time they get home after purchasing their new mobile phone, and over 1/3 of people find instruction manuals too long and confusing.

The research carried out by T-Mobile and YouGov have found that a staggering 1/3 of us have no idea how our new mobile phone gadgets work after we have purchased them, despite instruction manuals and sales advice from staff. With easy to understand demonstrations and explanations of features T-Mobile are hoping to make mobile phones easier to understand for customers, and are calling on the mobile industry to join them in their campaign.

This is just an example of Natural Selection at work. If the weak can not adapt to a growing technological age, perhaps they should not be given such wonders. I admit thought, that this is a smart move on T-Mobile’s behalf. This is purely a business movie, with the bottom line to move product, even if it does take talking like some backwater dolt to do it. However, this can only lead to a nation of idiots suckered into buying more expensive equipment, and still unable to use even if they “know” how to use it, when all they really need is a portable device that makes a damn phone call!

Fine, old man, it’s technically not out yet, but I’ll accept a voucher for one when it is out.

I’ve been lusting after a new phone for a while, and was about to pick up an XV6700 with Verizon, but had heard rumors of the XV6800 coming soon and decided to wait.

I was sure I’d be waiting interminably, but apparently not. The XV6800 is coming!

No more protruding antenna stub, upgraded memory, newer version of Bluetooth and support for 802.11g networks, among other things. A shame they changed the memory card format from miniSD to microSD.

I totally want this thing in my pocket right now.
