Unlimited No Longer

Gee Why Life, Passion at&t, iphone4, mobile

And I feel the same. After getting the original AT&T unlimited data plan with my iPhone 3G and carrying it over for years, I finally gave it up, switching to an AT&T mobile data sharing plan. Truthfully, I never approached “unlimited” data in my usage, averaging less than 2 GB per month. So instead of keeping the cool sounding unlimited data plan, I opted for other useful services (hello text plan).

I also said goodbye to my iPhone 4. This phone really cranked up the camera quality, making the iPhone my preferred camera.

Can You Hear the Cha-ching of Apple’s Cash Registers?

Do you doubt there’s a few more iPhone 4 converts out there after seeing King James wield his mobile weapon of choice?

iPhone 4 Protected

That was faster than expected. When I ordered the free iPhone 4 case, Apple estimated an early September shipment. Happily, one month early, my Griffin Technology Reveal Etch arrived.

Apple’s iPhone 4 Free Case Program Now Available

You can now apply for a free case to fix the possible antenna issue with Apple’s iPhone 4. You have to download and install the iPhone 4 Case Program app from iTunes to get started.

There’s a limited selection of free cases, mainly in Steve-Jobs-turtleneck black color. Of course, Apple’s basic bumper is available. Here are a few more:

Griffin Technology Motif
Griffin Technology Reveal Etch (not the Clear)
Speck Fitted (Tartan)
Speck PixelSkin HD (Black)
In Case Snap Case (info not available on their web site)
Belkin Shield Micra

There were one or two more, but once you place your order, the iPhone 4 Case Program app doesn’t let you see the selections any more. And by the way, all cases had a 3-5 week wait. I went with the Griffin Reveal Etch.

Update: I got an email acknowledgment of my case order with a receive date of September 1! That’s a ways away.

Looking for an iPhone 4 Case

Still early in the iPhone 4 lifespan, the accessory ecosystem isn’t there yet and finding cases are difficult. At $30, Apple’s bumper (in black) can be found at the Apple Store, but it doesn’t look like it provides adequate protection.

I’ll probably go with the highly rated Speck CandyShell, but it’s backordered and I’m not a fan of the current selections. MoonScile White, Palemoon Gray?

For now, I guess I could make my own. Do I even have a LIVESTRONG bracelet?

Oh wait, I just saw this Speck Fitted case. It may not provide as much protection as the CandyShell, but the CookieCamo Brown fabric backing is cool.

How good is the new camera on the iPhone 4? Here’s a still image and HD video taken at the Contemporary Museum’s ArtSpree event yesterday.

Be sure to crank the video up to the 720p HD version.

Very impressive!
