Singapore Telecommunications, aka SingTel, announced that it scored the iPhone distribution deal for four countries - Singapore, India, Australia, and Philippines. The Southeast Asia's largest phone company stated Apple's handset will be offered through SingTel Mobile in Singapore, and it's partly-owned subsidiaries in Australia (Optus), India (Bharti Group), and the Philippines (Globe Telecom). No dates were given, though.
Now it's seems official - Apple's exclusive country deals are out. In Italy, TIM and Vodafone are carrying the iPhone, while Vodafone will be competing with SingTel's subsidiaries in Australia and India.

Google has a $10 million contest for Android developers, Apple the iFund and RIM has just announced a $150 million BlackBerry Partners Fund along with RBC, Thomson Reuters, and several private Canadian investors.
Agnostic to both stage and balance sheet, the BlackBerry Partners Fund won’t restrict the development of mobile applications and services to any single mobile platform or any specific industry segment. The Fund will be designed to advance the industry by fostering development and driving the entrepreneurial spirit to create the most innovative mobile offerings for customers.
Ok, even though they say they won't restrict development to any single mobile platform, it's kinda obvious which platform they wanna see advancing. Guess, that means interested entrepreneurs will naturally be able to expand to other mobile platforms as well. Or that's just me reading too much between lines.
Two press releases are available, from here and here. Official website is set on BlackberryPartnersFund.com.

A company called Lextex is working on an application that lets controlling surveillance devices via iPhone. The so called CodeName iVy project provides users with complete remote access to what is happening, including simple time-shifting — all from any computer or iPhone using the web browser. Apparently, this is also working over EDGE, even though we're not eager to try it that way.
According to Lextex, traditional surveillance systems use a joystick or mouse to control camera positioning. With the iPhone, the user has the potential of a much more intuitive interface to drag the camera around and zoom in on things by pinching the picture. Sounds cool, but just wait to see how it looks in real life. Two video clips follow after the jump. Enjoy!
