Apple iPhone Rumor

3G iPhone apparently delayed: holiday damage-limitation suspected

by Chris Davies on December 4, 2007

Either things aren't going to plan in Apple's product development lab, or the company's PR people are working overtime; Mehdi Hosseini, an analyst with Friedman Billings Ramsey & Co. Inc, is quoted as saying that the second-generation (e.g. 3G) iPhone has been pushed back "from the March/April time frame to mid to late summer" [via MacNN].  It comes not long after AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson confirmed that Apple would be ... continued »

by Chris Davies on October 15, 2007

The boys over at Gizmodo have been polishing, peering into and generally chanting at their crystal balls, prompted by a press release from chip manufacturer Broadcom.  It turns out that Broadcom's latest 3G HSUPA-capable processor - the BCM21551 - might just be the salvation for those people seriously frustrated by the lack of anything faster than EDGE networking in the iPhone.  Not only does the chip bring high-speed network connectivity, FM ... continued »

Rumor: 16GB iPhone

by James Allan Brady on October 15, 2007

Alright, so instead of sitting around, questioning the legitimacy of these photos, and trying to figure out how they might have faked them, lets just go with the fact that a 16GB iPhone makes perfect sense and roll on. The iPod Touch maxes out at 16GB, the iPhone has only one SKU right now, which hasn’t happened with an Apple product in forever. So, a 16GB iPhone makes perfect sense. Now ... continued »

Rumor: Apple opening iPhone to 3rd party developers with release of Leopard

by James Allan Brady on October 5, 2007

Like I said, the two are totally irrelevant, but neither one is worthy of a separate press conference, so I guess the combination of the two announcements could kind of make sense in that respect. They aren’t going to open it up ... continued »
