Some stats have been released that indicate that the the iPhone 4 is more prone to cracks than its predecessor, the 3GS. On one hand this is expected since the iPhone 4 has double the glass panes. There are simply more places for it to crack.

According to SquareTrade, 3.9 percent of all iPhone 4 owners reported a cracked screen within the first four months. In contrast the iPhone 3GS only reached 2.1 percent. In fact, 82 percent of all iPhone 4 accidents involve shattering glass panes, compared to 76 percent on a previous iPhone.

We wish we knew, but sadly no one is sure when the R2-D2 version of the Droid 2 is going on sale, so in the meantime keep using your 3G or 3GS iPhone for a little longer, so you can use this R2-D2 case.

It may not be as cool as the R2 version of the Droid 2, but it gets the job done for a cheaper price. You can pre-order it now for just $30. Awesome right?

Will Apple soon offer up an 8GB iPhone 3GS? There’s nothing official yet, but according to a German shopper, when he purchased a refurbished 8GB iPhone 3G, he received the phone with a label on the back that suggests an “iPhone 3GS v2.2 8GB” model.

The model is A1231 and the part number MB490DN/A point to the older model correctly, but the “iPhone 3GS” appears elsewhere on the packaging.

The new Neo Hybrid case for your iPhone 3G/3GS is a soft rubber rear shell with a glossy hard plastic front bezel shield, with two types of screen protection: anti-glare and crystal clear, plus a cleaning cloth. It covers the side and top buttons of the iPhone 3G and 3GS, while leaving the headphone port and bottom of the iPhone a little pliable.

They also sell replacement front frames so you can customize the case’s look after purchase. It will cost you $27.

Zodttd is a developer working on a N64 emulator for the iPhone 3GS. Will it have the power? Possibly, thanks to CPU, GPU and OpenGL ES 2.0 support that will deliver smooth N64 emulation. But don’t get too excited.

Some high-end N64 titles might not be available due to the lack of power. The other issue would be the control scheme. Some of us hated the N64′s controller and found the games hard enough to play originally. The iPhone won’t be any better.

We don’t know if this is a hoax or not, but the story goes like this. Some dude was recording with his new iPhone 3GS poolside. Then he drops it into the pool. Lucky for him, he was able to get it out quickly and fortunately it is still working.

We don’t advise that you try this at home. We don’t know what kind of lifespan the gadget can expect from here on out, but it obviously lasted long enough to upload the video or transfer it to a computer. Check out the video below.

As usual, you were likely underwhelmed by the color “options” of Apple’s newest iPhone, the iPhone 3GS. Nobody likes to be confined to just black and white. And as usual, ColorWare comes to the rescue.

Pricing for these custom colors will run you $150 for the back of the handset, $20 a piece for the bezel frame and button, and $15 for the SIM holder. Out of the kindness of their hearts they will also do your earbuds for an additional $15.

As we all knew, Apple’s unveiled a new iPhone today at WWDC, the iPhone 3G S. The “s” stands for speed. Clever. Although it looks almost exactly like the 3G, it’s…Well, faster. Some tasks are almost four times faster. Data speeds have been upped to 7.2Mbps HSDPA, and the camera is now a 3 megapixel unit with tap-to-autofocus and auto white balance. It now supports 30fps VGA video recording with editing features.

You’re also getting a built-in compass, Nike+ support, and a new battery that offers 5 hours of 3G talk time and 9 hours of WiFi internet use. That’s not all. Holding down the home button now enables a new voice control interface that lets you make calls or even control iTunes.
