Do you hear the “iPhone Brown” ? No misunderstanding, it is not the new official name for the iPhone 3GS, but the new smartphone is too hot for its own good. The overheating glitch actually singes the phone a golden brown. The French journal, Le Journal du Geek posts a user photo of a burnt iPhone, in which an achromatic iPhone is now blessed with two tan lines down the back.

Uh oh. Is Apple’s newest gadget going up in smoke? No official report from Cupertino is forthcoming, but most are speculating that the problem is Apple’s legendary albatross—battery issues.

The conversation is heating up on Apple’s discussion board. One user quips, “An iPhone getting warm due to a running app is normal. An iPhone getting too hot to touch is not.” But apparently, some users are having just that problem. As one user complained, ” I had been burned…from the iPhone getting so hot.”

Since hitting the market, the iPhone has been legendary for its speed, functionality, touch screen, and thousands of apps. Most users are more than pleased with Apple’s revolutionary smartphone, and the new iPhone 3GS, with an amazing array of cool features, has not been a disappointment. Now bundled with a video camera, compass, higher speeds, and an upgraded firmware, the new iPhone is sizzling hot—in more ways than one.

No functionality seems to be compromised from the incendiary phone, but users don’t want to play hot potato with their iPhone all the time. Apple is going to have to do something.

Finally, if you are a iphone 3gs user, You could try Daniusoft DVD Ripper which a friend told me. It could help you rip DVD (including protected DVD with CSS) for playback on iPod, iPhone, Zune, iPod, Apple TV, PSP, Smart Phone, etc. with only three steps. Also let you set the movie effects.
