iPhone 4S released in China for FREE with contract →
parislemon:
This will get overshadowed by the new iPad unveiled a couple days before, but this is big news. China Telecom has 130 million customers. And, get this, one model of the 4S will be given away for free with a contract.
130 million is 10% of the current population in China. I’m not familiar with the contract, but it’s a bit mindless to decide whether to get the new iPhone...

8 Things I Love about Sleipnir Mobile Browser for...
If you’re a heavy browser user on your iPhone, here is why I’d recommend Sleipnir over Safari:

michaeldswanson:
Most of my friends know that I’m always working on side projects. And if you don’t know what side project I’m currently working on, that doesn’t mean that I’m taking a break. It just means that I’m being quiet. ;-)
This side project began as an experiment in March, 2009, and over the past 2½ years, it’s become my new full-time job.

Unethical Opportunists
It took me some time (and help) to come up with that name. But, I think it suits perfectly to the developer of MoonCraft Mine, a new iPhone app which has just been released an hour prior the writing of this post. Looking at the screenshot on the AppShopper’s page, we can immediately learn that this is a complete rip-off of the original Minecraft.
