iPhone 3G SIM unlock demoed on video, zero details given {Engadget}

Jul 24th 2008 7:49AM The Rogers iPhone 3G is locked to MNC-720 (Mobile Network Code) where as the Fido one is locked to MNC-370. Yes it is a TurboSIM type of device (it is actually a YESSIM). The first thing I tried to do when I got my hands on the Rogers iPhone 3G was to stick my Fido SIM in it, no dice. it doesn't complain about the SIM, but it also doesn't find a network. once we used the YESSIM, it worked just fine, only thing we had to do we add the APN/UID/PWD to the iPhone so we could use the 3G/EDGE.

As to the turning of the iPhone off, I didn't know at the time that I could do it with it on, the last time I tried to hot swap a SIM, the phone crashed (granted that was quite some time ago). But once we started working on more of the devices, I found out you could leave it on, I am sorry about that.

At any rate there will be a better quality video up either tonight (I am too tired to do it now) or tomorrow (Friday).

For more information on YESSIM please see: YESSIM.com

Toshiba's Portege R500 gets cautiously torn apart {Engadget}

May 25th 2008 6:47PM @ tekdroid, the R500 uses magnesium alloy for the whole case. the only part that is plastic is the inner bezel on the display.

@ everyone, I love quarters, but seriously I needed to put something that people would know the size of instinctivly. A ruler doesn't achive this, you would have to look at the hash marks on the ruler to see the sizes.

I will try to get some shots of other things. I don't have anything new yet, but soon.
