NEWS OF THE DAY: German court bans VoiP on iPhone

A VoiP application for Apple's iPhone has been banned by the Higher Regional Court in Hamburg, Germany at the behest of T-Mobile.
The app - available through Apple's iTunes App Store - allows users to make cheap phone calls using T-Mobile's Wi-Fi network and bypass roaming charges.

However, that's not why the app called Sipgate got banned. The court argues that Sipgate makes use of unfair business practices to pull customers from T-Mobile to its own services. Sipgate only runs on iPhones of the first generation up to firmware 1.1.4 and requires the "BSD Subsystem" for installation. Jailbreaking the iPhone is a violation of T-Mobile's contract terms, the court says.
Sipgate had received a cease and desist letter from T-Mobile's lawyers in July, but decided not to comply with the order. Instead, it fought back. The company said T-Mobile was misleading its customers by not telling them it offers a limited service without VoiP, IM and VPN usage. A German regional court agreed, barring T-Mobile from advertising its iPhone plans as "open internet access with unlimited data".
But now the courts have sided with T-Mobile - the ban only includes Germany. Other countries where T-Mobile is the sole provider of the iPhone, such as the Netherlands, aren't affected.

iphone stoklarda kalmamış

Bu tip haberlerin mobil pazarlama ile direkt ilgisi yok, ama ilgi çekici olduğu kesin. ABD'de ve İngiltere'de online-offline tüm mağazalarda iphone satışları stokta yok diyerek durdurulmuş. Dedikodular iki sebep öne sürüyor:
1. iphone'un yeni 3G versiyonu beklenenden daha yakın bir zamanda çıkıyor.
2. zaten apple store'lardan alınanların çoğu unlock edecek birileri tarafından alınıyordu, insanları AT&T'ye yönlendirmek için yapılan bir şey...
