There has been much talk about whether or not Apple could keep up its winning streak with the 4th generation of its much loved smart phone, but the reviews are now coming in and it does appear that the iPhone 4 is certainly going to be winning over a lot of fans this year. The fact is, the device has come out with a lot more power packed into a smaller size and this alone is going to be a big selling point for it. If it manages to stay ahead of the competition, which it looks to be pulling off easily right now, then a whole new record sales level could be set and this means that the marketing forces along will carry it on to super stardom.

With the new onboard eDRAM that is 512 MB it does appear that the iPhone 4 has a decent amount of space to do its multi tasking, but the charm can be added with the storage space of 32 GB that helps it hold all of that HD video. That’s right, this latest version of the iPhone is capable of shooting crystal clear quality HD video of 720p which translates to 30 frames per second, the industry standard for motion pictures and all packed into a phone design that is actually 24% smaller than previous models. This is helping to propel it quite rapidly up the most loved smart phones list and the fact that it has a 5 MP camera on it with the video recording camera facing the opposite direction helps this version of the iPhone come in as one of the most visually sophisticated offerings seen from Apple in quite some time.

No other mobile device in the history of our species has managed to create such a sprawling and dedicated fan base. More people use this phone more than other to play games, use applications to make their life more productive and watch or listen to their favorite videos and music. Still, when a great price is needed, where does one go to get the best possible Apple iPhone deals? The answer is that there must be a serious level of comparison shopping because the best prices have to be found, they don’t just appear like magic. In order to get a great bargain, it is important to check out the deals being offered because the deals are what make the difference between the high standard pricing most retailers are going to employ and the sweet bargains that are available to those who seek them out.

Tariffs are certainly an issue and any new convert to the iPhone is going to want to get a good deal since this can end up making the phone cost far too much. Getting gifts is another strong point of the bargain shopping because even if a person can’t find the absolute rock bottom price, in many instances getting a terrific bargain means paying the normal price but getting a whole lot of extra features with the deal.

John Carmack, cofounder of Id software, which is the company behind highly recognizable and popular games like Wolfenstein, doom and quake revealed some interesting things at QuakeCon 2008. He mentioned that id software is in the process of developing two games for the iPhone. He stated that the first game [Likely Doom 2] would be an extension of Id’s mobile games, which would mean cell phone graphics. But the second game (Wolfenstein) is going to be a “graphical tour de force” in Carmack’s words. Id software’s CEO Todd Hollenshead had also recently expressed his interest in bringing Doom2 and Wolfenstein to the iPhone. Doom has been ported to multiple platforms and the iPhone may also get its due.

Spore is the much anticipated game developed by Maxis, the same company behind highly popular games like SimCity and The Sims.

Although this is isn’t possible on the iPhone yet, the game’s developers are reported to be working on making it possible. Although the developers intend the iPhone version as well as every other version of spore to be able to access and use the same content from Sporepedia, this may not be possible with the initial iPhone version of the game. Though the iPhone version of the game could be patched later to include that capability.
