Twenty-two more countries will receive their iPhone 3G starting August 22. Apple COO Tim Cook and CFO Peter Oppenheimer announced the date but forgot to mention which 20 countries will finally have their iPhones. Despite some supply strains the Apple execs expect Q3 to be their best selling iPhone quarter ever. Better than Q2? With iPhone 3G already selling twice as fast as iPhone EDGE, Q3 is definitely one for the record books.

With a price ($199 + contract) that rocks, availability of third-party apps at the App Store, and at least one jailbreak software already out for additional third-party apps, the iPhone is one tech product that will remain in the fixation of contemporary civilization for a while.

Btw, our most popular post these days has been this iPhone 2.0 jailbreak post from March. A related post (on the iPhone jailbreak) has become our most popular post with a poll. Right now, 93% ofour poll takers say they want to jailbreak their iPhone.This despite the App Store receiving over 25 million download requests. Wow!
