Apparently AT&T wasn’t the only one who started selling iPhone 3G’s off of contract yesterday as Apple has kicked off a similar sales practice in its retail stores across the US. With the 8GB model selling for $599 and both of the 16GB models selling for $699, apparently anyone can walk in and snag an iPhone 3G — unlike AT&T’s contract-free iPhone offerings, an existing AT&T contract is not necessary. This changes to Apple’s strict policy is yet another indicator that a new iPhone is definitely on its way to market. WWDC 2009, we can’t wait until you arrive.

Last week, Apple barely scratched the surface on all of the features in store for the iPhone OS 3.0. The company apparently decided to save a few pleasant surprises for the official release this summer. According to iPhone developers now playing with 3.0 and SDK 2.0, the device receives two biggies: video recording and Internet tethering functionalities. In addition, subscribers to Apple’s MobileMe suite of cloud services will be able to locate stolen a device geographically using the web interface.

When Apple previewed their newest iPhone OS 3.0 the other day, we were given a glimpse of what’s to come.

In character, Apple’s allowed a different route than other companies like Sony and Nintendo. Rather than licensing Nvidia’s PhysX technology and exposing it to developers via the iPhone SDK, they’ve allowed several independent developers who created PhysX-enabled iPhone games into their App Store.
