UK Watchdog Nixes iPhone Ad Over 'All Parts of the Internet' Claim

In an iPhone ad aired in the UK, Apple claims that the iPhone can access "all parts of the Internet," presumably to emphasize the phone's ability to surf the Net almost as well as a desktop. But technically, it's not true -- the iPhone doesn't support Flash or Java. It may be quibbling to some, but it's too far a stretch for the UK's Advertising Standards Authority, which ordered the ad pulled.

French iPhone Carrier Throttles HSDPA to 384kbps - Users only start noticing once Wired analyzes global speeds...

Earlier this week, Wired News posted the results of a survey comparing iPhone speeds across various global 3G networks. This led to several cases of users in various countries realizing they were getting, well, crappy service. Customers of France's Orange were particularly annoyed to find out that their carrier was artificially restricting downstream speeds of their HSDPA network to 384kbps (HSDPA's theoretical maximum downstream speed is 7.2Mbps). Orange says they were simply "preserving the stability of the network," but customers believe Orange was preserving the integrity of their pocketbook. Thanks to Wired's data, Orange says they'll increase downstream speeds to 1Mbps starting September 15.

AT&T Revamps International iPhone Data Plans - For the second time in less than a year...

It appears that AT&T has yet again revamped their international data plan prices for the iPhone. In a plan unveiled last November, customers shelled out $24.99 for 20MB or $59.99 for 50MB when traveling in 67 AT&T-approved countries. Starting Wednesday, AT&T users can add (and drop) two new international traveling plans to their current plan at any time: 100MB for $120, and 200MB for $200. "AT&T has worked diligently to provide affordable options for international roaming because the feature-rich mobile experience of iPhone is indispensable to users," insists AT&T. That, and many customers were having to take out second mortgages to pay their vacation iPhone bills.
