For any of you using WordPress (and 2.5 represents a nice milestone release, job well done to everyone involved), there’s a [...]

New iPhones ahoy?
The recent news that the 8Gb version of the iPhone was discounted wasn’t a huge shock with rumours of a pending 3G / Business flavoured iPhone in the distance. However, today sees MacRumours reporting that O2 have stopped selling ANY iPhones, 8Gb or 16Gb.
