One of the good news from Apple is they’ve lifted the restrictions against 3G VOIP calls from the iPhone SDK. This allows any future release of VOIP apps to be able to make use of 3G to make VOIP calls.

 Due to the previous restrictions on the iPhone SDK, all the VOIP apps such as Skype could only make VOIP calls via WiFi. But now with the restrictions removed, the future versions of the VOIP programs will be able to make use of 3G network, which is more convenient for the users as 3G Internet connection is widely available through your cellular provider, making it easier for you to make free VOIP calls while you’re on the run.

A few days ago we talked about the Kapten GPS navigation app for the iPhone. These Frenchies were so nice they wanted us to give our readers bunch of free promo codes. Lucky you guys.

The app is called Kapten for iPhone and promo code is good for the North American version only. The app normally goes for $8/month at the app store.

How Kapten is different than most other GPS navigation apps is that it is “multi-transport”. You can define your means for travel – in fact you can even start with driving and get the rest of the routing for on-foot. Not only that but the app is also good to be used for public transportation. Kapten for iPhone can do text-to-speech for spoken directions, 2D, 3D views, as well adaptive which changes angle and zoom level with speed, and switches automatically between landscape and portrait modes.

We’ll close this article for comments in 10 days and after that we’ll announce the winners! Here is a hint! We have more than ten promo codes.

People at Kapsys – makers of the screenless GPS navigation system Kapten – just came out with a GPS navigation app for the iPhone called Kapten for iPhone.

Some of the key features of the new app include support for multitransport navigation (i.e pedestrian navigation with or without using public transports, car, motorbike, bicycle navigation), monthly license model which is renewable at will starting from 3.99€ and can be converted into permanent license.

Kapten for iPhone is already third behind TomTom and Navigon at the French AppStore. They have country, whole Europe, or North America versions.

The TwoNav name we talked about back in May last year just recently released a new iPhone app for both outdoor and on-road navigation. Features of the $65 app include unlimited free online maps from Spain and Italy, USGS dataset, US Forest Service, and DRCan, OpenStreetMap, ability to load your own maps from .map, .jpg etc files, ability to access topographic maps offline which can be downloaded by tile from compegps.com

TwoNav for iPhone also lets you track your performance even for altitude using geoid correction for better accuracy, provides more than 60 on-screen tips, 3D views, and of course the ability to buy road maps and use your app as a GPS navigation application. In which case you’d get turn-by-turn voice guidance, speed limit and camera alerts

Sega has revealed that they will be releasing an iPhone game app that actually a fully fledged emulator of their old Genesis system. The emulator will come included with Space Harrier II, but after that, you’ll have to buy the additional games form within the app. Sonic is $6, Golden Axe is $5, and Ecco the Dolphin and Shining Force is $3. More games will be announced in the future. You can also get the Sonic’s Ultimate Genesis collection, which includes almost 50 games, for just $20.

Finally, Grand Theft Auto has come to the Apple App Store as Chinatown Wars has just become available.

Yes, it does look different than what you see from the console version, but it bears a strong resemblance to the PSP version. Anyway, if you are a big GTA fan, then you can shell out $10 for this App and have hours of fun.

Calling the next iPhone 4G is not really surprising. In fact, as early as now, many people are calling it that. But while people could care less of what the next iPhone would be called, the important thing is figuring out when it will be coming out. Will it be out by June?

Rumors flying in Korea are pointing to a potential launch in June. Among the features being spilled this early include a 2 camera module for video calling, improved battery life and something about a TV service. Would Apple care to change the name? We will find out in 5 months time (if rumors are true!)

If messaging or texting on the iPhone is kind of painful, you may love to turn the iPhone into a full-sized PC QWERTY keyboard. Although it sounds little absurd of doing so, as the iPhone is meant to be portable but it isn’t impossible. The Ion iType is just the right gear that you need to transform your iPhone into a full computer QWERTY. More of this gadget »
