What on earth are you doing with it? I have had no problems with Safari, despite extensive use, and my battery lasts for 1.5 - 2.5 days with average use.

Well arn't you the lucky one.
2.5 days is fantasy.
Never got more than 1 day out of my phone, perhaps 1 1/2 if I don't use it very much at all. Generally more like 12hrs and its gasping for breath.
Safari is constantly crashing on me, twice so far today. 1st time I could see it coming as the keyboard went on a go slow.

I'm starting to think Apple have got serious quality control issues going on with the battery, because almost everyone I've met that owns an iphone is claiming wildly different times for how long they get out of it.

Perhaps I was a little over zealous. After a recharge from last time, it seems to be doing a lot better.
I wonder if the battery monitor software was faulty. Under reporting how much was left. Now I've discharged it and recharged it after the 2.1 software it appears to be lasting a lot longer.

That could be said of anything that uses flash memory to store things. Email, photos, you name it if its stored on flash memory insecurely, then its open to hackers!

The difference being is that most phones aren't constantly taking screen grabs of your work. Did you not read the article?
Can you point me to a 100% secure data storage device, please?

It doesn't take screenshots of 'everything that you do', just what's on the screen when you minimise the app, and then only temporarily, and then only accessible via very complicated hacking only possible with physical access to the machine (ie. looking at 'data remnants' directly in memory area cleared for re-use by the OS). If I owned an iphone, I'd be more worried about someone looking over my shoulder, in terms of security risk.

Apologies.
"constantly taking screen grabs of your work"
instead please. I hope you understand my apparent misinterpretation.

Not really, seeing as no matter how spin you it, I made no claim that the iPhone recorded every single thing that you did on a phone.
Maybe you spend all day looking at one application on your phone, but I'd imagine most iPhone users are constantly switching between the phone interface text, camera, music player, browser etc etc. And if they're constantly switching apps, then they're constantly having screen grabs taken.

It's a shame that the iPhone doesn't do video because it would make this app a lot more useful, but I'm loving the look of the EyeMobile iPhone application for citizen journalists. I'd love to have something like this on my phone.
Unfortunately, I can't get any more details because Apple won't even let me look at their store unless I have iTunes installed, but perhaps others could report back on the app. Are there similar apps available for other news outlets?

iHandbags ahoy! 3's coming out fighting, saying that, "Apple was wrong to pick O2 for 3G iPhone," adding that "The iPhone is not on the right network, a handset is only as good as its operator.’

I know it's not. It IS the store though, you can see it without iTunes.

I tend to agree.
A Porsche is no good on a dirt track no matter how much engineering has been put into it doing 160 mph.
O2's network is shite.

It's a bit confusing though: when you go to the UK iPhone page and the only way you can view any of the listed 'top apps' is a "View in iTunes" link - which then brings up the error. It's the same story on the iPhone app home page too.
