Who doesn’t? But sometimes reading a book can take longer than you have time, and a lot of folks prefer taking webinars instead of reading books these days. Accelerated Internet Strategies has announced new online courses for anyone who wants to master the art of iPhone programming. Here are the five tracks available:

• Intro to Object Oriented Programming and Logic
• Objective-C 2.0 for iPhone Developers
• Cocoa & Xcode for iPhone Developers
• iPhone SDK Programming – Getting it done!
• iPhone SDK Programming – Advanced

These webinars will cost you $97 each, but that is cheap in compare to the price of admission to some of these conferences. I personally prefer reading a book on this subject (e.g. iPhone in Action), but if you have the money and you want to get a head start, you may want to try this.

It was the matter of time. People who believe in 100% foolproof systems are just dreaming, and iPhone simply not a 100% foolproof device.  A new security flaw has been discovered that allows hackers to get access to your contacts and other personal information on your iPhone. Now that’s a scary thought as a lot of people keep every piece of information they own on their iPhones. Apple will be fixing the issue sooner than later, but still it just goes on to show that you got to stay conservative with your data.

We had a story about a disgruntled iPhone owner who complained to Steve Jobs about the new iPhone’s glitches. Well, it seems Steve didn’t lie when he said a piece of software was on the way to fix the issues with the iPhone 3G. Now, I don’t expect this update to fix everything but one thing that Apple is good at is sending you more updates. So stay tuned for another wave of updates to get rid of the unsolved glitches.

According to real or fake Steve Jobs, only 2% of iPhones have been affected by the glitches that many consumers are complaining about. 2% is still a significant number considering the number of iPhone 3G that Apple has sold, but the real or fake Steve Jobs has reassured one lucky customer that software fix is on the way. MacRumors has the story.

That seems to be the rumor on the net now. As you may have experienced in the past few days, iPhone has had numerous connection issues which now BusinessWeek confirms is a hardware issue and not software. The Infineon chip is the guilty part behind the connection issues that some of us have experienced this week. BusinessWeek does claim that Apple will attempt to fix the issue with a software update, but if it comes down to a hardware remedy, it will truly be a disaster. Let’s hope it doesn’t come down to that.
