New York is full of surprises. Apparently if you lose an iPhone, it might actually be returned to you. What a hearty people! However not everyone is so nice. Interestingly enough, one such iPhone has been left in a cab, and returned to its rightful owner, Annie Leibovitz’s (famous American portrait photographer) assistant. However there is a catch, the culprit has downloaded all her contact numbers.
The names include: Laura and Jenna Bush, Jerry Seinfeld, Anna Wintour, Apple CEO Steve Jobs (that one is useful), David Bowie, Clive Davis, Rosanne Cash, Philip Glass, Padma Lakshmi, Nan Goldin, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Michael Madsen, Maureen Dowd, Marc Anthony(man has taste in music), Louise Bourgeois, Lance Armstrong(sport), Julie Taymor, Joan Baez, Jann Wenner, Jamaica Kincaid, Isabelle Huppert, Gus Van Sant, Diane von Furstenberg, David Bailey, Cindy Sherman, Christiane Amanpour(professional journalism), Calvin Klein(and in clothes), Robert Hughes, Betsy Gotbaum, Steven Meisel, Stella McCartney and Knopf boss Sonny Mehta.
It is interesting to note that while a man wanted just to copy contacts; software updated whole iPhone merging his and her contacts. Now the man is in trouble.

It seems you are not the only one with low iPhone speaker volume. In fact some people got so frustrated by it, that they decided to stab the poor device. But do not fear, not into its heart.
Sticking a needle through the holes in the speaker enclosure should do the trick. Modders reported 40% increase and you will have to lower the volume! However beware; it will void your warranty!

As the Sun reports, David and Victoria Beckham gave their 8-year-old son Brooklyn an iPhone as a Christmas present.
The Sun’s source said: “David and Victoria are aware that Brooklyn is very young to have a mobile. But they thought it would be a good idea so he could call them whenever he needed - especially with David and Victoria globe-trotting so much.”
“Brooklyn is really switched on with computers and gadgets. He set his heart on the iPhone when he saw it on TV in America.”
“He loves computer games and is always on his PSP handheld console.”
There have already been some criticizing comments on that. Child expert Dreena Hamilton, of the Channel 4 show Bringing Up Baby, warned the Beckhams on risk of spoiling their son. She said: “An eight-year-old can have no possible use for an iPhone - it’s irrelevant to his life.”
We do not think that there would be anything wrong in teaching young people how to use modern and breakthrough technology. Can not wait to see what will Brooklyn’s younger brothers Romeo and Cruz get when they will turn eight.

Now the UK’s National Mobile Phone Crime Unit (NMPCU) says that the fear of being robbed of your iPhone while out in public, should not be substantial, although the MICAF (Mobile Industry Crime Action Forum) previously said that it’s the other way around. Simply being aware of your surroundings is your best defense, according to the NMPCU.
Inspector Chris Paice of the NMPCU told our source: “Most of the iPhones stolen have been the result of shoplifting rather than street crime, robberies or the use of violence.”
Mr. Paice went on to say: “Operation Prestige was a huge success particularly as it was run over the winter with darker evenings and the clocks going back. We did not carry out an operation on this scale last year and so have little to compare it with. However we did see a marked decrease in robberies and street crimes during the period that the operation ran compared to the same period last year.” — Overall, 324 devices were recovered, with a total of 56 arrests made to yield them.
If this is the case, perhaps you won’t need to petition for an upgraded iPhone including tazer. The best way to prevent something bad happening, is to keep your back to a wall and don’t wave your iPhone around visibly. If nothing else, keep the receipt and hope Apple will replace it.

It seems like David Lynch, the director of classic Dune, Mulholland Dr. and many other movies (full filmography), really doesn’t like viewing movies on the iPhone, and like all of them creative movie business folks that are passionate about showbiz he had to do something about it.
So while some of the same people gave iPhone the American Film Institute awards for 2007, Mr Lynch decided make a fairly amusing video against it.
Which you can see below (note: it contains some improper language that might be NSFW and is probably not appropriate for children, and could certainly get you fired if you work with children).
