AT&T Limiting iPhones to ONE Per Customer, No Cash or Checks

AT&T just sent out an internal memo to its employees today limiting all iPhone purchases to one per customer—down from a previous three—and making everyone pay with credit cards or debit cards. Do they want to make their stock last until the 3G iPhone is out? Probably, since people who buy more than one are usually not regular guys who just wants to use the phone for themselves.

Internal AT&T Memo Details Contract Free Rate Plans, Handset Must be Paid for in Full

One of our sources at AT&T has leaked to us an internal document; the memo details the process for obtaining a contract bundle without the obligatory 1 or 2-year commitment term. The basis for the non-commitment bundles is the customer must pay for the handset in full, losing the subsidized rate that is offered with fixed contract terms. The memo pins the start date of the non-commitment bundles as November 2007, but we have heard no word on any such contractual freedom previously. UPDATE: This entire document, another source tells us, is meant to inform ill informed employees of an existing thing. AT&T has done this for years.

Memo Pad Phone Incorporates Message-Taking Paper

About the only time we use pen and paper around here is to take phone messages, and this Memo Pad Phone accommodates that situation with aplomb. At first we thought this design concept involved some kind of fancy electronic paper, but no, it has a special memo pad that's cut out to fit around the telephone's keypad. More »

USB Memo Holder, Why?

This USB Memo Holder is really just a glorified USB extension cable, but who am I kidding, crazy USB peripherals will sell, including this one. It does light up when a memo is placed, which can be convenient for the forgetful types. An additional USB port is on the backside for plugging in useful gadgets. More »

Memo Motion Sensor Plays Your Message When Someone Walks In

Record a message on the Memo Motion Sensor, and as soon as someone enters the room it starts playing back. You'd better make that message brief, though, because you're limited to 10 seconds. Talk fast. At first we thought the recorder was sitting in a charging stand, but that's just a plastic parking place for this battery-operated device. More »

Micro Memo XRM-IP iPod Voice Recorder

The iPod has a million and one uses, just like those knives they sell on late night TV. Besides playing your collection of MP3s and iTMS-purchsed songs, it can also record your voice, a feature I would wager not many users take advantage of. The Micro Memo XRM-IP, distributed in Japan by Focal Point Computer, magically transforms your 5G iPod into a voice recording machine, pleasing the dozen or so people who use their iPod thusly. It plugs right into the dock connector, at which point the iPod latent voice software awakens and you can begin recording in stereo. Of course, we've had this very device under the XtremeMac moniker for a few months now, but it's only just now that our Japanese friends get to play, too. More »
