Alongside the iPhone 5 rumors we hear on a seemingly daily basis, there has also been a lot of speculation that Apple would be expanding its carrier partnerships this Fall. Although they've come a long way from 2007, there's still a huge opportunity for growth.
The gossip thus far has focused on a possible deal with China Mobile and their 600 million subscribers, but there has also been some chatter regarding the 2 major U.S. carriers left that don't carry Apple's smartphone...
The jailbreak community is responsible for creating many extremely useful utilities for our iDevices. This however, is not one of them.
Speed for Maps more likely falls in the "Hey, that's kind of cool" category. This new jailbreak tweak installs itself in your native Maps application, and it places a speedometer in the bottom right corner...
Have you ever wanted a convenient way to access your iPhone while in your vehicle? While there's no shortage of automobile accessories for Apple's smartphone, none of the ones currently available seem to put your device in a place where it's easily accessible.
I'm not talking about for texting and driving, but a car stand would be nice for things like answering phone calls or listening to music. Kickstarter project founder Sameer Desai hopes to capitalize on where others have missed the boat with his new product, the Steer Safe...
It's no secret that posting a purposed "spy shot" of Apple's upcoming smartphone will bring all of the skeptics out of the woodwork. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that the photos have a tendency to be a little on the fake side.
Advances in image-editing software have made producing a realistic-looking "leaked photo" extremely easy. How easy? Jesus Diaz of Gizmodo made the above image in under 10 minutes...
AT&T got rid of their unlimited data plans quite some time ago. However, folks who had unlimited data before the plan was removed are likely still enjoying the all-you-can-eat option.
Thanks to the grandfather clause, customers should get to keep those unlimited plans until they sign another contract — unless their iPhone happens to be jailbroken and they're using an application like MyWi...
You know Apple is about to launch a new product when spy photos of the device start surfacing in bunches. Last week 9to5Mac posted a blurry snapshot of a purposed iPhone 5 in the wild, but most folks wrote it off as a 3GS.
Today, MacRumors posted another foggy photo of what could be Apple's next smartphone. The image depicts a device that seems to match up with some of the rumors we've heard regarding the iPhone 5's design, and is believed to have been taken in the office of a French carrier...
BGR picked up on some interesting comments made by Brian White of Ticonderoga Securities yesterday. In a note to investors, the analyst cited a report from Sohu.com claiming that Apple and China Telecom were putting the finishing touches on an iPhone 5 partnership.
We've known for quite some time that Apple was working on closing a deal with China's 3rd largest carrier, but we didn't know how soon it'd be finished. White told shareholders yesterday that China Telecom would have 2 iPhone models by October of this year — 2 very different models...
For those who aren't familiar with the event, the Pwnie Awards is an annual awards show celebrating failures and achievements in the security community. This year's ceremony took place in Las Vegas, Nevada at the BlackHat security conference.
All together there were 9 awards handed out, and it probably won't surprise you that a certain iDevice hacker took home one of them. As a matter of fact, 2 well known members of the jailbreak community ended up taking home Pwnies...
Apple has been hard at work on their iTunes ecosystem over the last several weeks. They've enabled Automatic Downloads and added the ability to redownload previously purchased TV shows, and they don't seem to be slowing down anytime soon.
AppAdvice is reporting that they have been able to confirm that Apple is about to launch a new iTunes feature called iTunes Replay. The service will allow users to redownload purchased movies to multiple devices, and stream the video content via iCloud...
Apple is on an unbelievable run right now. It seems like the company has been on a hot streak ever since they unveiled the original iPod back in 2001. This can't possibly last forever, can it? What is it they say, all good things must come to an end?
But with $75 billion in the bank, and anticipation for the next Apple product stronger than ever, you'd think Apple's inevitable decline was still years away. That's not the case, according to Electronic Arts founder Trip Hawkins. He thinks Apple's epic run will come to an end in the next 24 months...
With jailbreak utilities like iFile and Safari Download Manager, your iDevice can seem more like an actual computer than a phone or MP3 player. The two apps allow you to manually download files, edit them, and move them around from folder to folder.
However, there hasn't been a convenient way to natively upload files in iOS (that I've known of), until now. Safari Upload Enabler just surfaced in Cydia, and it allows you to upload content from inside Mobile Safari...
If rumor mill-chatter isn't your cup of tea, you might want to move on to the next posting. There's no doubt that the anticipation for upcoming Apple products has grown to an epically-annoying level.
