Retail chain Tesco will be carrying iPhones on its shelves next to Xmas carol CDs, stocking stuffers and ornaments this year it seems. But unlike the iPhone walmard deal, this one might bring out some competition as TescoMobile already has some competitive plans.
What ever the case UK iPhone customers will still be riding the O2 network as TescoMobile contracts with O2 to provide services. Lets see how these Androids might shake up the the mighty iPhone.
Tesco Mobile through its joint venture partnership with O2 is pleased to announce that it will shortly introduce iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS in Tesco Phone Shops and online through Tesco Direct in the UK.

Accessible iPhone 3GS, It Speaks Back To You.

iPhone icons speaks back.
There is a nice article about getting your iPhone 3GS to talk back to you with iPhone voiceover. This can be accessed via settings -> General -> accessibility (iPhone 3G users don't try it is not there! :)
Once set, you can follow bit of learning to use iPhone without having to look at it. We tested similar feature on the Google Android phone while back. Basically with this feature on the iPhone 3GS, you can operate everything — read your e-mail, type replies, surf the Web, adjust settings, run apps — by tapping and letting the phone speak what you’re touching. It uses whatever language you like, at a speaking rate you prefer.
iPhone is getting to be accessible.
