Cases cost a fortune. Sleeves and slip covers don’t offer you much protection, and frankly, most of us prefer our devices naked. We don’t however like scratches and scuffs, so I decided to plop for yet another form of protection but this one is neither a case nor a slip cover. ZAGG Invisible shield is [...]

Amidst all the issues and hype over the iPhone 4′s antenna problem, Apple have come out strong with the surprise press conference. So I’m going to go through what I see in this, and what was said Make no mistake, I am posting this not as an apple fanboy, nor as an apple aficionado, whilst [...]

Contrary to popular belief, none of the staff here at apptacious have an iPhone 4… Yet, in fact since this is now a UK based website we’re feeling the pain along with many of our loyal readers. But recently we’ve noticed that it’s not just low stock everywhere, but in fact, it’s no stock. Almost [...]

Over the years with my iPhone, I’ve spent nearly £200 on various cases and forms of protection for it.

Developer: Twitter Price: Free Version: 3.0.0f So Twitter finally have their own branded iPhone app. Well done them. Those in the know will know already that this app used to be called Tweetie.

Well it finally happened, most of that objectionable content has now been taken down from the Appstore. Apparently this bold move was accompanied by lot’s of complaints from people who quite clearly didn’t see the age content warnings, and nor did they apparently know about the parental controls in their iPhones (hint, tap settings, restrictions [...]
February 16th, 2010 thelongmile So the mockup isn’t exactly very good, but it would be a whole lot easier if apple could do this for iPhone OS 4 and it’s applications. They don’t even have to run in background, just show push notifications from applications like mail, SMS, Facebook, twitter. It would be a whole lot easier when I [...]

When it comes to browsing around the world the iPhone is a great contender, allowing you to view the web, emails or even chat on MSN if you need to, but sometimes it just isn’t enough to be browsing on your phone.
