As many of you have heard, there are a number of stories out there about how Apple’s new iPhone 4 is getting negative reviews around it’s reception.
Specifically, the redesign of the iPhone 4 includes incorporating the antennae in the outer casing of the phone. As a result, the user’s hand can interfere with the phone’s reception, causing the bar indicators to go down.
Even Consumer Reports has stated they cannot recommend the iPhone 4 due to this reception issue, in what was an otherwise a positive review.
We want to hear from you!
Did you buy an iPhone 4? Let us know by answering the poll below. Two people who participate in our poll will win a free MobileMammoth t-shirt.
Does your iPhone 4 have reception problems?

We apologize for the somewhat cheesy title, but meeting people at bars is actually exactly what this iPhone app encourages.
In BarCards, players take turns selecting a card, and they get an assignment that somehow requires you to meet someone. By showing them your assignment on your iPhone, it breaks the ice quite a bit. BarCards also runs on an iPad, but bringing an iPad into a bar is probably not going to help your cause.
For example, if Maverick and Goose from Top Gun had this app 25 years ago, they would have had a much better excuse to start singing “You’ve Lost that Loving Feeling” to Charlie (Kelly McGillis). Now that would be a tough card to turn over.

How many times have you had to fumble around trying to dial a number on your mobile phone while driving? I’ve done it more often than I’d like to admit, though I am happy to say that I have completely stopped. If you own the iPhone 3GS, you can kick that habit too, and maybe even save a life in the process.
The new iPhone feature is called Voice Control. You can use Voice Control to dial a contact by name or by phone number, play a song on the built-in iPod, find out the song currently playing, or even create a genius playlist based on the current song playing.
To use Voice Control, simply press and hold the home button. At the tone, speak a command such as “Call Will Ferrell”, or “Call 408.555.1212″. To play a song, simply say, “Play Darius Rucker”. You get the idea.
So stop using your fingers to dial while driving and start using Voice Control on the iPhone 3GS. Who knows — the life you save may be your own.

Fire up the popular Rocket Taxi app on your iPhone, and it uses GPS or WiFi to find your location and list nearby taxi companies. This is handy when you’re in someone else’s house and need a ride (especially if you’ve had a few), or in some other semi-remote area where cabs are not roaming the streets.
Feature Suggestion: Automatically call the nearest cab company. That would be a logical next step.
Download it now and then check it out the next time you need a lift!

Many are singing the praises of Facebook 3.0, the latest iPhone version of the world’s most popular social networking site. Just released on the Apple App Store on Thursday, the application now allows you to view Events, view profile photos, and post video from your iPhone 3GS.
You’ll notice there are still a few bugs to be worked out, as you can see on the Facebook wall. But by all accounts it is still worth downloading.
Go have a look and let us know what you think.

Have you downloaded it yet? For all you SimCity junkies out there, the iPhone version of this game definitely helps you get your Sim fix. It’s not perfect – we’ve seen multiple reports of crashing and a bit of slowness ourselves, but that should not dissuade you from shelling out the $5 for this one.

Take a look the next time you are loading up with games and apps on iTunes.
