The iPhone finally has an alternative to FaceTime for video calling and it works over AT&T’s 3G network. That’s right—Skype 3.0 is finally out after much speculation. Of course, it uses approximately three megabytes of data a minute and could quite easily destroy your phone bill if you’re not careful.

T-Mobile’s new myTouch 4G wants to take on both the iPhone and AT&T at the same time. How? Well the myTouch 4G by HTC has video calling abilities of its own over 3G instead of just Wi-Fi like Apple’s FaceTime in the iPhone 4. T-Mobile is also claiming to have the largest 4G network in the country and has slammed the iPhone and AT&T in its new advertisement. Video after the jump!

Apple is not content just to let the success of its iOS mobile platform sit there; it’s bringing it back to the Mac. What does that exactly mean? Think FaceTime on your computer and Mac OS X Lion getting features from iOS. Oh, and the app store is coming to the computer.

Gotta love concept artwork and videos. The iPad 2 has gotten its own such special treatment from Joy Studios. I have to say, the concept video—which is actually a pseudo advertisement for the coming iPad 2—is very well done. If you didn’t know any better, you might think that it was a real Apple ad ...

Market research company NPD says that they have uncovered some interesting information about why people purchase iPhones. No, it’s not just about the apps. In fact, it really is not that much about the apps. It is because of the music.
56% of iPhone and iPod touch users have only bought music from Apple’s iTunes store. ...
