The era of iPhone exclusivity is over. Starting today, you’ll now be able to pick up the Apple phone on both O2 and Orange, and with more competition to come, we’re looking at another sales splurge to match the iPhone 3Gs launch.

The Ricoh GXR system is very clever, and yet at first glance incredibly simple too. It leaked last night, but now the GXR is official: There’s a single camera unit into which you slot lenses, except the camera unit itself doesn’t contain a sensor, instead that’s packaged inside the lens attachments.
The attachments are completely sealed, dust-proof, and just the start of a complete reinvention of photography. Read on and see how the Ricoh GXR system is a godsend for serious snappers.
