Can you believe that a group of thieves decide to seal iphones. The amount of the stolen gadget was worth 2 million euro. The incident happened in Belgium.
Local reports from De Standaard and Gazet van Antwerpen vary on whether it was 3,000 or 4,000 iPhones stolen, but at a worth of 575 to 675 euros each, the market value is said to be around 2 million euros, or $3 million U.S. The handsets were allegedly stolen from a Netherlands-based logistics company CEVA Logistics in Willebroek.
According to reports, the thieves climbed a fire ladder to get on the roof of the warehouses where the phones were being held. They then cut a hole into the roof, directly over where the iPhones were located.
From apple insider reports:
“Reports suggest the detail and precision of the theft implies someone had inside knowledge of the delivery and location of the iPhones. Officials with Ceva declined to comment on the theft, but were said to be “seriously annoyed by the intrusion,” according to Google Translate.
The theft is apparently an issue for wireless carrier Mobistar, which has reportedly had trouble keeping the iPhone 3G and low-end iPhone 3GS in stock. Officials with the wireless provider contacted their supplier and expect to have a new stock of phones within days, but the company is anxious to resupply before their existing inventory runs out.
Because the serial numbers on the stolen phones are known, Mobsistar officials said they can block the handsets from accessing their network. Police are said to be looking into the matter, but currently have no leads.”

For those who are an avid Marvel fans, check out the new Marvel Iphone application. X-men, Marvel Zombies and Captain America are all coming for itunes.
Mac World announces the new application.
“On Thursday the companies announced that, effective immediately, several comics from Marvel Comics will be available for purchase via in-app purchase from the free Comics app.
The Marvel comics available initially from Comixology are Joss Whedon’s 24-issue run on Astonishing X-Men, Robert Kirkman’s five-issue Marvel Zombies miniseries, Ed Brubaker’s first 30 issues of Captain America, and two other X-Men-related books, X-23 and X-Men: Age of Apocalypse, each six issues long.
Each individual issue is priced at $2 on Comics and iVerse, and $1 on Panelfly. (Presumably Panelfly is running a special sale or taking a loss on the sales as a way to promote the Marvel additions.)
This isn’t Marvel’s only foray into the world of the iPhone. The company recently launched two “motion comics” sold directly via iTunes: Spider-Woman and an adaptation of Whedon’s Astonishing X-Men.”
Its amazing how you can all fit all this in your lifestyle and enjoy your favorite marvel characters.

If you’re wondering why the buzz for the I phone hasn’t died down yet, its because your missing all the reasons to buy an I phone. I phones are one of the things I am jealous of. Can you imagine how technology has evolved in so many different ways. The I phone allows you to take pictures, download music, go internet and more. Apart from that it is stylish and funky.
Right now people are very addicted to different applications and news have been passed that to do in-app purchases in free apps is going to change AppStore landscape now. Previously this was restricted to paid only apps. Here is what Apple says in their e-mail to developers:
“In App Purchase is being rapidly adopted by developers in their paid apps. Now you can use In App Purchase in your free apps to sell content, subscriptions, and digital services.
You can also simplify your development by creating a single version of your app that uses In App Purchase to unlock additional functionality, eliminating the need to create Lite versions of your app. Using In App Purchase in your app can also help combat some of the problems of software piracy by allowing you to verify In App Purchases.”
Obviously, the I phone is one of the best creations in the world. It collaborates everything in your life in to one phone.
