We’re so psyched for Apple and announcements that a slightly frail looking Steve Jobs’ made at WWDC. Not only is the new 3G iPhone coming to 70 new countries in the coming months, including the UK and Canada, but Apple will be launching their App Store both native on the device and through iTunes.

Wall Street analyst Gene Munster from Piper Jaffray conducted a poll on the floor of WWDC and has come to the conclusion that signs suggest that as much as 70% of the planned applications for the App Store might be available for the price of… free!

Here’s some great news for all of you “Paranoid Androids” out there who might or might not be afflicted with “The Bends”. It seems that Radiohead and Apple have finally reached an agreement on the band’s entire catalog. An agreement that has unleashed the entirety of the Radiohead album collection for purchase through the iTunes Music Store.

The release of the Radiohead catalog through iTunes is done in correlation with the release of the band’s new greatest hits compilation, The Best Of Radiohead, which was released today. Although hardcore fans are panning the new album as an injustice to Radiohead’s album-styled music, we’re waiting to see the albums fly up the charts.

Less than a week remains until Steve Jobs’ keynote at Apple’s WWDC expo on June 9th, and rumors about the 3G iPhone are flying around faster than a famished hummingbird. Many rumors have been floating around about possible next-gen iPhone specs and features.

A insider recently provided some specific information about the upcoming 3G iPhone. Reportedly, the tipster is “a programmer at a major software publisher who claims to have seen the specs for the iPhone 2.” And what he reveals is pretty exciting.

With the deluge of budget airlines making their presence felt all over the world, no thanks to rising fuel and operating costs, it is nice to see a major airline continue to make profit without compromising on the quality of service. Singapore Airlines has just announced that it will be offering flights featuring iPod and iPhone connectivity on KrisWorld starting from yesterday. This privilege can be found on all newly reconfigured Business Class Airbus A340-500 flights between New York and Singapore, as well as routes between Los Angeles and Singapore from this August onwards. I suppose after forking out enough cash to buy a kidney (and then some) to fly halfway across the world, it makes perfect sense to have this added touch of technology available to travelers who prefer to watch movies of their own choice on the iPod/iPhone instead of subjecting their senses to the mercies of in-flight entertainment.

I don’t know if you’ve been following the rumors concerning the release of a 3G iPhone, but they’ve all been pointing to a release in the very near future. While I can’t claim to have any inside knowledge on the matter, I will say that there is one piece of evidence that leads me to believe that we’ll seen an update to the iPhone line. What evidence you say? How about you go try to buy one from Apple’s online store.

H2O Audio has just announced that its new Natalie Coughlin Signature Series: iSH2 product is now available for sale exclusively at Apple Stores from this month onwards. Guess folks who have been hankering after an integrated waterproof headset can finally lay their hands on the iSH2 which was specially developed to work with the Apple iPod Shuffle Gen 2 and 3. Of course, it goes without saying that if you purchase this, it is also compulsory to have some sort of waterproof casing for your iPod Shuffle in the first place as water and electronics do not play nice with each other. Interestingly enough, the product was conceived by H2O Audio and developed with the assistance of world record holder and Olympic multi-medalist swimmer, Natalie Coughlin to turn the fatigue of lap and distance swim training into a music-energized experience.

Earlier this year the epic battle for the next-gen disc technology was finally ended with Blu-ray becoming the victor. However, I’m still not convinced that a new disc technology is what the industry really needs. With high-speed internet more widely available than ever before and hard drive sizes reaching over 1TB, it only seems logical that we’ll turn to digital distribution with movies, just as we’ve done with music. Once again, Apple is making strides that will no doubt help us along that path.
