The new 3G Iphone was expected as one of the best gadgets of the year, but it turned to be one of its most disappointing. More gadget forums and experts reported that the security level of the new iPhone is practically missing. And when we think that most of us are using its wifi feature quite often, our credit card info or other sensitive data is an open source for hackers. :|
that's pretty bad. I was thinking on buying an iphone when it just appeared (last year). But,I didn't, since I had not enough money. Now, this news makes me glad 'cause I can now make jokes on others who have this phone! Smile
Yes, but I think Apple will release an updated firmware for the 3g version very soon. :geek:

and what happen to owners of the current iphone? Should they throw it away? It costs a lot of money, about 400 euros.
No. As karl mentioned before, it is most probably that Apple will release and update for that software.
oh, so it's all about software update? No hardware update? That disappoints.
Apple released the software update, and the first feedbacks seem to be ok. Hardware is on a proper level, you should not be worry about it.
That means we can simply buy the new software and update our iphones or special equipment is required?
I think this update is freely available. Just search for the info on apple.com
Iphone was surprised of the number of sales from the past few months, when the new 3G 16GB iphone was released. Now just imagine - 10 million items sold in only 3 months!!! Confusedhock:
