Apple Has More Cash Than the US Government

by Alex Heath on Jul 29, 2011

Folks in the White House should be taking notice, because Apple now has more cash on hand than the entire US government. That’s right, Steve Jobs is the new Uncle Sam.

Apple has an astounding $75.88 billion in cash, while the United States only has $73.77 billion. At least now the US has someone to borrow from besides China. Read More

 

AT&T to Start Throttling Unlimited Data Plans This Fall in Time for the iPhone 5

by Alex Heath on Jul 29, 2011

Customers that are still on AT&T’s unlimited data plan may soon see some of their grandfathered privileges revoked, as AT&T will reportedly begin throttling data hogs on its network come October.

Verizon has already started throttling ‘unlimited’ data customers, and AT&T looks to be adopting the same practice— all in time for the iPhone 5′s launch in September. AT&T will be implementing this throttling to help speed up its slow 3G network that has plagued iPhone users for years. Read More

 

No, Your iPhone Won’t Give You Cancer

by Oliver Haslam on Jul 29, 2011

Cell phone use in children and adolescents does not increase the risk of either groups suffering from brain tumors, according to a new report.

In claims that fly in the face of both past research and public opinion, a report published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute answers the question we’ve all been wondering: Will talking on my iPhone give me cancer?

by Sebastien on Jul 29, 2011

Yesterday I saw an AT&T commercial on TV saying that if you’re on a family plan and choose to get unlimited text messaging, you would automatically get unlimited calling to any mobile phone in the US.

So this morning, after my delicious grande Caramel Macchiato at Starbucks, I decided to pay a visit to the AT&T store, right next to the coffee shop, and see if they could help me save a few bucks… Read More

 

Verizon Just a “Small Bang” in Overall iPhone Growth

by Alex Heath on Jul 28, 2011

When Apple unveiled the iPhone 4 on Verizon in February, everyone thought that the iPhone’s cross-carrier distribution in the US would be the end of Android and other competitors. That hasn’t been the case, as Verizon’s adoption of the iPhone hasn’t slowed AT&T sales of Apple’s smartphone at all. Also, overall iPhone market share hasn’t seen that impressive of an increase since Verizon picked up the iPhone 4.

A new report from Asymco details how Verizon is just a “small bang” in iPhone sales, and how the “big bang” is actually happening overseas. Read More

 

Is This an iPhone 5 Prototype?

by Cody on Jul 28, 2011

It would seem like the iPhone 5 rumor mill has been in full swing over the past few days. We’ve seen everything from cases to concepts. Now, 9to5Mac is claiming they have pictures of the real thing.

The same blog that brought us the leaked photos of the purported iPhone 5 case has just published a photo of what they believe to be Apple’s next smartphone. It certainly fits the typical “leaked photo” criteria, as it’s extremely blurry and hard to make out. Could this really be the iPhone 5? Read More

 

The iPhone Air

by Cody on Jul 28, 2011

As the iPhone 5 launch inches closer, it seems everyone wants to know what the device is going to look like. We’ve heard leaked information from “sources,” and we’ve even seen purported cases for the gadget, but we still don’t really have much to go on.

This is one of the reasons that concepts are so interesting. Artists take the rumors and the speculation, and create visual representations. This is exactly what the folks over at Ciccarese Design have done with their latest creation, the iPhone Air… Read More
