As previously announced, TiPb celebrates our one year anniversary on May 11, and as a giant thanks to you, our members, we’re celebrating in style. Birthday Bash style! Starting tomorrow, we begin a slew of daily give-aways including iPhone accessories, promo codes for some of our favorite apps, iTunes gift cards, and… our biggest grand-prize so far:

• A factory unlocked 8GB iPhone 3G in your choice of 35 different color options courtesy of the awesome folks at ColorWare.

That’s right. Your iPhone. Your way.

How can you win? Simple! Remember those daily give-aways we just mentioned? Enter them (this here Birthday Bash link will help you keep track!). Every time you enter one of the give-away contests, you are automagically entered to win the grand-prize.

Contests start tomorrow, May 7, 2009. Announcements will be here on the blog, but the contests themselves will take place on the TiPb iPhone Forums so if for some unimaginable reason you haven’t yet — register now!

Contest details after the break!

Them Details:

• Open to everybody who has a real shipping address in the United States (no international shipments, sorry!)
• Methods of entry will vary for the daily contests, but they’ll always happen in the forums, so sign up!
• For each daily contest your enter, you will get one entry for the grand prize — if the daily contest allows for multiple entries, that’s still just one entry for the grand prize, capice?
• Contest will run starting Thursday, May 7, 2009 and end 12pm EDT, Tuesday, May 12, 2009.
• Winner will be announced on iPhone Live!, Wednesday, May 13, 2009 sometime after 8pm EDT at http://www.imore.com/live
• Not open to Smartphone Experts employees or contractors

Good luck everyone, and thank you for making TiPb something worth celebrating!

Bummed out that the (PRODUCT)Red iPhone never came out? Regret your White iPhone? Wondering how to turn your iPhone 3G, let’s say, blue? Well Colorware, the electronics color customization company, has just announced that they are going to be lending their amazing talents to the iPhone 3G.

Though obviously there won’t be an option to buy an iPhone 3G directly from Colorware, you will be able to send in your iPhone for customization that includes a variety of colors and finishes. Colorware also offers the opportunity to change the color of the frame, sim card tray, button, ear buds and dock.

For those looking for a solution to make your iPhone unique, Colorware is a great option. The process starts at $150 but the envious stares from your friends may be worth it. Any takers?
