I'm a little bit dubious. The 3G used in T-Mobile USA operates on an odd band that only T-Mobile USA uses. Most of the world operate on the standard bands, so it's still difficult to say if this is an apples to apples test. The iPhone is compatible with most of the GSM/UMTS networks around the world, while the T-Mobile phone 3G features are more likely to only function in the US. Somebody needs to investigate this.

Jiilik Oiolosse writes to tell us Ars Technica is reporting that after years of existing seperately, KHTML and Webkit are finally coming back together. "In open source terms, this may be as big of a deal as the gcc and egcs merger of yonder days. KHTML and Webkit are definitely coming of age. The KDE developers, responsible for the original creation of KHTML, are dedicated to seeing this unforking happen and are taking a leading role in that effort."

Realising the huge potential the iPhone has as a medical tool Heart Imaging Technologies (HeartIT) has recently announced that it's using the iPhone to provide these images and videos to doctors.

Now, instead of commuting to these workstations, doctors can simply click on a web link sent via email by one of their colleagues and instantly view movies of a patient's beating heart halfway around the world. they can even put their colleagues on speakerphone and carry on a medical consultation while simultaneously browsing through the imaging results"
