Being a commuter, spending countless hours behind the wheel of my car stuck in traffic I need a versatile sound system. For my money, that turned out to be the JVC KD-R600 head unit for my 2002 Volkswagen Golf.

I knew it wouldn’t take long for this to happen, the first iPhone disassembly pictures have been released. Since we don’t have the iPhone in Canada yet, we’ll have to live vicariously over the Internet for now.
The Boy Genius Report also has coverage, including user photos, and their official iPhone unboxing photos.
It will be interesting to hear the user reviews once they have had the phone for a while.
