Apple released AppleCare for the iPhone late yesterday. The contract, which costs $69 from Apple, extends the standard AppleCare limited hardware warranty from one to two years. Two years of telephone technical support come standard with the iPhone.

The key features of iPhone AppleCare are:

  • Extends hardware coverage to two years from the date of iPhone purchase
  • Covers iPhone & iPhone Bluetooth hands-free headset and included accessories
  • Guarantees genuine Apple replacement parts
  • Permits transfer of the plan between owners

AppleCare can usually be purchased at a discount from third party vendors like Small Dog Electronics so check them out before buying. [Bill Fox & Dana Baggett]
