Video: Australia's first iPhone unboxing

Getting our hands on this iPhone was no mean feat. There was the biting cold, the cranky crowd and let's not forget the free pizza, coffee and massages — it was torture.

But instead of tearing open our new iPhone as soon as we left the Optus store, we've patiently brought it back to our labs so that you, our beloved reader, can share the grand unboxing with us. If you thought the Iron Man movie was gadget porn, just wait till you see this!

Not since I broke the packaging seal of my original Darth Vader action figure have I been so aroused by something so evil.

I unboxed mine in last year September as well. Also I'm running version 1.1.4 with modem firmware 04.04.05_G since this Feb with all function running nicely without any compromise with the call quality. :)

    • Motorola MC75

      Motorola MC75

      Enterprises looking to deploy a rugged, versatile mobile device will be impressed by the Motorola MC75's range of features. However, you pay a premium for smartphone functionality in a hardened form; this phone is not only tough, it is massive to the point of being unwieldy.

    • Sennheiser MM 50 for iPhone

      Sennheiser MM 50 for iPhone

      Compared to the headphones bundled with Apple's iPhone 3G the MM 50s are light years ahead. Exceptional sounding bass and its affordable price tag make the MM 50 a great choice for replacing those dodgy Apple ear buds.

    • Super Monkey Ball

      Super Monkey Ball

      Unless you have a great deal of patience and very steady hands or a love of monkeys, bananas and falling off high surfaces, this game is not for you.

    • Nokia 6210 Navigator

      Nokia 6210 Navigator

      While the 6210 is solidly built and features fast performance, the lack of a lifetime subscription to turn-by-turn navigation robs the Navigator of what should make it unique in the market.

      Motorola RAZR2 V9 Ferrari Special Edition

      There's nothing technically wrong with RAZR2 V9 Ferrari Special Edition but if you want to Ferrari-fie your phone there are cheaper and better ways of doing it. For free.
