Current AT&T customers who don't have a first generation iPhone, or who aren't eligible for an upgrade, will have to pay an extra $200 to purchase an iPhone 3G. For those unfortunate souls, this means waiting until upgrade time rolls around, or impatiently throwing down an extra $200 for an unsubsidized iPhone.
Thankfully, there's a fantastic loophole that any current AT&T customer can use to get around this mess. All you need is a little help from a friend who already has an iPhone. Read on for the nitty gritty.

Google has just released in the US a new version of Google Talk designed specifically for the iPhone and iPod Touch browsers.
In addition to sending your friends Gmail messages from your iPhone, you can now chat with them while you're on the move, too! In your iPhone browser, just go to www.google.com/talk, sign in and start chatting. That's it.
Google Talk runs entirely in the browser so there's no need to download or install anything.
There are some differences from using Google Talk on your computer. For instance, in order to receive instant messages with Google Talk on your iPhone, the application needs to be open in your Safari browser. When you navigate away to another browser window or application, your status will be changed to "unavailable" and your Google Talk session will be restarted when you return.
Other than that, Google have tried to keep the design as faithful to the desktop experience as possible, so it should be familiar to you. You can select from a quicklist of the people you contact most, search your contacts, and manage multiple conversations. You'll never have to miss out on the latest gossip or updates from friends just because you're away from a computer.

Apple and Adobe have been at something of a crossroads for some time now. The clashing of these titans has resulted in Apple refusing to let Adobe bring Flash plug-in support to its iPhone Safari browser. But, that may all change in the near future.
First let's explore what Adobe's working on.
The new Adobe Flash Player 10 beta 2 pre-release is now available for those of you that just like living on the stability-edge. But, the real significance of the Flash Player 10 pre-release is that it's promised to bring a 3-fold performance increase to Mac OS X machines. Specifically, Adobe Player 10 runs the GUIMark benchmark 3 times faster than in its previous incarnation.
Now, how does that point toward Adobe bringing Flash support to the iPhone?
Well, Steve Jobs essentially barred Adobe from porting their "unacceptable" Flash Lite to the iPhone. And, the full desktop-version of Flash Player is just too bloated and slow to work with the iPhone's pared-down processor. So, Adobe has resorted to crafting its own iPhone-optimized Flash player with enough punch to satisfy Steve Jobs and svelte enough to run decently well on the iPhone.
Unfortunately, the iPhone has been locked down to exclude the use of Safari plug-ins and preventing third-party apps from running executable code.
Is Adobe tweaking its Flash Player to give Apple's Mac machines a performance boost in a bid to try and sway Jobs's stanve on allowing iPhone Safari plug-ins? We sure hope so. Steve Jobs isn't exactly known for his kind heart, but if he can find a way to cut Adobe some slack and allow a Flash plug-in for the iPhone, we'd be more than a little grateful. Perhaps there's some light at the end of the iPhone 2.1 OS firmware-tunnel?
