How to “safely” update (not restore) your unlocked iPhone 2G to OS 2.0.1 (update 1)
By: Alex Zaharov-Reutt

(Updated since publication:) iPhone OS 2.0.1 has arrived, promising faster surfing speeds, snappier program operation and lots of other as-yet unknown bug fixes, but the big question for unlocked and jailbroken iPhone owners on OS 2.0 is whether or not it’s safe to upgrade. Here’s what I did to make it work, although any attempt you do at trying the same is at your own risk!

Virgin pops iPhone cherry with massive 5GB bang!
By: Alex Zaharov-Reutt

Virgin Mobile, a subsidiary of Optus, has finally launched the iPhone 3G as widely predicted, but with the surprise of a ginormous 5GB data plan – the first decent iPhone data plan yet. But with pricing for the 16GB and the 8GB model on the $100 plan identical, why would anyone bother with the 8GB unit? And what about concerns that Virgin Mobile’s broadband network is “not reliable"?

‘3’ launches iPhone plans for unlocked iPhone 3Gs
By: Alex Zaharov-Reutt

3 Mobile has launched iPhone specific plans for those with unlocked iPhone 3G models, challenging the incumbents Optus, Vodafone and Telstra with 1GB and 2GB plans at low rates – but given how often a 3G iPhone can drop to 2GB for data, is 3 Mobile worth the risk?

‘3’ brings 7GB plans to the mobile broadband table: is it enough?
By: Alex Zaharov-Reutt

3 Mobile has made 7GB of data available for $49 per month on its 3.5G HSDPA network, outclassing competitors who only have 3GB, 5GB and 6GB plans respectively – but who will be the first to bite the 10GB download cap bullet?

Waiting for a “Virgin” iPhone before taking the plunge?
By: Alex Zaharov-Reutt

If you’ve been hoping that Virgin Mobile would soon sell the iPhone, partially because it’s owned by Optus, and partially because it has cheap data rates, rumours suggest it could soon happen.

Vodafone nicely slices international roaming prices – cool!
By: Alex Zaharov-Reutt

Vodafone is proactively slicing the price of international mobile roaming charges, which consumer or business travellers overseas on the Vodafone network will surely love, with a special deal for China during August and the Olympics. It looks very impressive and I can’t seem to find any hidden catches, despite trying!!

Time for an Aussie mobile data revolution?
By: Alex Zaharov-Reutt

The cost of mobile data in Australia is all over the place – some carriers sell it cheap, others sell it at sky high prices, and effectively the same data transfers but on different devices from the same companies can be charged at different rates. When will data pricing ever get realistic?

Optus ‘yes’ Timeless plans: timeless after all, ‘Fair Go Policy’ snafu
By: Alex Zaharov-Reutt

In a previous article I looked at the new Optus ‘yes’ Timeless plans, looked at the then “Optus Mobile Fair Go Policy” and deduced there were timed limits, but Optus has now belatedly updated its Policy and says there are no limits - for consumers. What has an Optus spokesperson specifically told me?

Telstra customer claims free unlock for outright iPhone 3G purchase
By: Alex Zaharov-Reutt

An iTWire reader by the username of “mac user” was outraged to discover that the iPhone 3G 16GB model he’d purchased outright did not come with a free unlock, but instead was to cost $150. So he did his homework and now claims that Telstra has unlocked his iPhone 3G free of charge! Has a massive can of worms just been opened for outright current or future iPhone 3G purchases from Telstra, Optus and Vodafone in Australia?

Optus ‘yes’ Timeless plans: they’re timed, have limits and exclusions! (updated)
By: Alex Zaharov-Reutt

When is an unlimited plan NOT an unlimited plan? When it’s timed, has limits and exclusions which are listed in the fine print for you to discover, probably when it’s time to pay the bill. Should the use of the words ‘unlimited’ and ‘timeless’ be banned when it comes to telecommunications companies? NOTE: NEW STORY UPDATE FOLLOWS

By: Alex Zaharov-Reutt

OMG! Telstra iPhone 3G plans – worst in the world?
By: Alex Zaharov-Reutt

If you thought Canadian telco Rogers had bad pricing for the iPhone 3G, they may have just been beaten by Australia’s dominant telco, Telstra. Not only are the tiniest amounts of data included, the cost of additional data is the same brand of "expensive" that Telstra already charges.

Carriers hampering iPhone 3G with stingy data plans
By: Stephen Withers

The iPhone 3G hour is almost upon us and it's time to check out how the three carriers reselling Apple's device of the decade stack up. Do any of the plans stand out from the crowd or are they all a load of codswallop with stingy - or expensive - data plans?
