It seems like ages since we've had a good Canadian iPhone rumour, so just in time comes Digital Journal's hush-hush insider information that luxury retailer Holt Renfrew will be carrying the 8GB cellphone come mid-October.  That would put a north-of-the-border (as long as your border is between America and Canada, of course) launch just a couple of weeks away; Holt ... continued »

Worse yet, will it cost you extra? Its looking like both might be answered with a yes. Maybe not though, depending on how you read the email, does it mean you have to purchase an extra messaging plan or is it referring to the data/messaging plan that already comes with the iPhone service plans? A gentleman by the name of Jordan ... continued »

September 18th, 2007 at 10AM our own Vincent Nguyen will be reporting from London for Apple’s next stunt. I wonder what Steve is going to pull out of his hat this time. Not only will he be there, but he will be bringing you live coverage, again. My guess, as well as just about everyone else’s is that it will be ... continued »

It could be, but probably not. There are several obvious things wrong with the ad and they all ad up pointing to this just being a decent shop job. The first is the price, 499 euros would put this device at around $684 USD. Some of which is surely accountable for the 16GB of storage, sure they did it in the ... continued »

Blimey!  UK gadget tome T3 are sticking their necks on the line and predicting that the Apple iPhone 2 will be guest of honour at the Apple Special Event.  According to their sources within Cupertino, they're saying a 3G iPhone - ideal for the data-hungry Euro market - will be announced.  Furthermore, the BBC have apparently told them that Apple will ... continued »

In the Chinese section of IFA there is a portable media player that has been produced that had a very strong resemblance to the iPhone, but its smaller. So there is really no way in hell it could be an iPhone Nano. However, it does look very much like the iPhone, save for the giant “MP4 Player” sticker across the top ... continued »

It hardly feels like thirteen minutes since Apple last had a "Special Event" (but then Vincent would tell me that every day with his iPhone is a special event), but unfurl your calendars and roughly circle September 5th because Jobs'n'co will be hitching up their waggon and flaunting their latest wares at the Moscone Center in sunny San Francisco.   continued »

Over at CNET Blogs, Don "Lips of a Vixen" Reisinger has installed fresh batteries into his ACME Conspiracy Finder and pointed it firmly at the head honchos over at Apple.  His belief: that not only will the company continue to sit on their hands and distract themselves with truffles over the spate of iPhone unlock methods, but that Steve Jobs ... continued »

The glamorous Stacey Tisdale of CBS News has jumped upon the mini-iPhone bandwagon in their latest video bulletin, reporting that Apple has filed a patent for a "cut down" version of their cellphone supposedly on sale before the end of the year for under $300.  There's little indication of whether this is new news sourced by CBS or simply a ... continued »

First the unlocking, then the conspiracy theories.  Like guilt-riddled children peeking at their presents on Christmas Eve, anxious bloggers are wondering what electronic spanking Apple may have in mind for anyone who chooses to unlock their handset from AT&T.  Cupertino's predicted revenge has so far run the gamut from remote re-locking to death-by-stunted-features.   continued »

As Adobe surreptitiously update their Flash player with a new beta supporting bandwidth-friendly codec H.264 and Apple-handy AAC audio format, whisperings begin to fizzle that, while there's still no official word on an iPhone generic Flash player, Adobe might have something lurking in the wings (or, more likely, on the engineering test bench).   continued »

German newspaper FT Deutschland, the Financial Times' German-speaking sister paper, is reporting that the ink is freshly drying on contracts between Apple and T-Mobile, Orange and O2 for the lucrative iPhone contracts in Germany, France and the UK respectively.  While no official announcements have been made by any of the involved parties, it is believed that they'll use the IFA ... continued »
