iPhone: Release Day Links Roundup

Golson sexy hands iPhoneWell I suppose this post can serve as my obligatory iPhone release day links free-for-all. Since I am in Canada, I was not able to stand in line today but I did manage to talk managing editor Jordan Golson to grab me one when he got his in Boston. When I get back home to Bangkok in 2 weeks I should be one of the few guys in Asia to actually have one of these bad boys. Mind you it will be just a beautiful brick until someone back engineers the iPhone so it can be unlocked from Cingular. My money is on this being accomplished in under 2 weeks but I guess we’ll see!

In the mean time you can bet I will be watching the post-iPhone hype machine pretty damn closely. For now here are the most compelling iPhone related articles I found today. I will add to these if I find some more worthy meat and potatoes, but here’s how the iPhone’s US release is looking so far…

  • TUAW has the obligatory unboxing video.
  • Apple posted the official user guide for iPhone sometime around 6pm EST. They also released the full line of accessories for iPhone.
  • MacRumors has this thread detailing users first impressions and opinions of iPhone.
  • Engadget has an ubercool video with the Woz himself waiting in line to get an iPhone. Also from Engadget is a gallery showing activation photos.
  • iFixit has perhaps the first dismantling of the iPhone complete with high res screenshots. Powerbookmedic has another.
  • Findnearby has a mashup aggregating several sources for those looking to get their hands on one of these still.
  • Gizmodo has this rather disturbing video of Steve Job’s wannabes as they descend on the Apple store in Manhattan to, uhh, piss off security?
  • Appletell is giving away an iPhone for all of you too lazy to go down to your local Apple/AT&T store. The contest is open until 6pm next friday, so get your entry in.
  • And finally our own managing editor here at MacApper Jordan Golson, finally debuts as a hand model for Associated Press, with this post featuring his own just bought iPhone. Way to go Golson.

    Engadget is also doing an iPhone giveaway, if I’m not wrong.

    Heck, the Engadget writers snagged up so many phones; they’re just rubbing it in by posting them all together.
