It looks like Portugal got an early start at least in some store. Here is the first photos of an iPhone 3G caught in the wild, including a couple of unboxing shots.

This iPod memory stick one is of the cutest flash drives I have seen in a while. The drive comes in two sizes, 1GB ($40) and 2GB ($50) and it’s available now. Even the packaging looks cute:

Waiting in a tent outside an Apple store for a week and get a slightly updated phone - and pay for it as well - is just so absurd that it honestly makes me think that it’s just a PR thing from Apple. The photo above is taken today outside the Apple Store in NYC.

What do you think? Would you stand in line for more than a couple of hours to get an iPhone 3G? I wouldn’t stand in line for more than 10 minutes…

Above you can see an excerpt from a big iPhone timeline image, listing all important dates throughout the iPhone history. Interesting to see that Apple registered the iPhone.org domain already in 1999.

It looks like Apple has slashed the price of the MacBook Air with a solid state disk with $500. The screenshots above are from today and a month ago. $2600 is still a lot of money but a bit more decent. And just to let you know - the same freakin machine will cost you $4676 if you buy it from Sweden…that’s correct $2000 more than the US price.

Appstore is the new market place for getting applications for your iPhone 3G. The majority of the applications are supposed to be free but there will also be commercial products like games. A typical game will probably be around $9.99.

Apparently it is very easy to check out old emails, contacts, photos and other personal info on the current iPhone model - even if the phone has been reset and erased. The next software version, 2.0, will take about an hour to reset but will delete all data for real by writing random data all over.

If you are used to battle over the docking station to get some juice into your ipod this can be a solution for you. Personally I think it’s overkill but I guess there is a need for a device like this somewhere in the world, haha. It aint too pricey - $150 and it will be yours to take home.

If you don’t have the time to watch yesterdays full keynote from WWDC 2008 you can just go ahead and watch this neat little 60 second clip (well it’s in fact 93 seconds, but the keynote is just 60) that gives you all the important stuff!

I must admit that I am a bit disappointed that there wasn’t anything more than the iPhone 3G on show tonight - but the new phone looks really great so I can live with that. The new price level set at $199 ($299 for the 16GB) is extremely aggressive and there is no doubt that Apple is aiming for world domination with their iPhone. Full press release and images after the jump.
