Case-Mate Shows Off iPhone 5 Cases, These Could Be the Real Deal [Update]

Hot on the heels of the purported iPhone 5 screen protector surfacing this morning, BGR is reporting that more accessories have turned up in the next-generation iPhone department. Case-maker Case-Mate just unveiled 6 new iPhone 5 cases.

Sure, we've already seen several cases that are reportedly for Apple's next smartphone. But not from a company as well-known as Case-Mate. And the phone design depicted in the pictures is better looking than anything we've seen so far...

iPhone 5 Screen Protector Echoes Redesign Theory

With an official announcement from Apple expected in the next few weeks, the tech world at large still doesn't have any firm knowledge of details regarding the iPhone 5. Tim Cook's team has done an excellent job of concealing their plans.

But outside of concrete information, there has been a lot of purported leaked parts and accessories that all point to a similar redesign. And this morning, another puzzle piece surfaced that appears to confirm the change...

Chronic-Dev Team “Actively Working” on the iOS 5 Untethered Jailbreak

As we near the public launch of iOS 5, many jailbreakers are wondering what the future holds. It was originally thought that Apple was out to kill jailbreaking in iOS 5, and many became even more worried when famed hacker Comex announced that he had been hired by Apple. Was the end drawing near?

We can all rest assured that jailbreaking is alive and well. And after months of there being no untethered jailbreak for iOS 5 or the last two releases of iOS 4, the Chronic-Dev Team has said that it is "actively working" on an untethered jailbreak for iOS 5...

Facebook Messenger Now Available in the U.K.

When Facebook entered the murky waters of the instant messaging business with Facebook Messenger, many eyebrows were raised by its US-only launch. With over 700 million users worldwide, that left a fair chunk unable to take advantage of Facebook's latest venture.

As of now, that's an issue that's on its way to being addressed, with Facebook Messenger now being made available in the U.K. App Store...

Nintendo: We’re Not Making Games for the App Store

No Mario for you! That's what Nintendo president Satoru Iwata is saying to iPhone, iPad and iPod touch users. Why? Because Nintendo refuses to make games for anything other than its own hardware. How lame.

After being pressured to hop on the iOS bandwagon by investors, Nintendo has said that development for the App Store is "absolutely not under consideration."

Formspring Releases Official iPhone App

Formspring has launched its official iPhone app. There are many unofficial apps for Formspring in the App Store, much like the Facebook iPad app.

Multitasking Concept for the iPad Shows that iOS Still Doesn’t Have it Right

After we spent years begging Apple to finally add multitasking to iOS, the boffins in Cupertino relented, bringing the joys of multiple running apps to our iPhones and iPads. Well, sort of.

Apple's implementation has many-a-geek arguing over whether it really is multitasking. Once you get past that little hiccup, it works surprisingly well. But could it be better?

The launch of iOS multitasking hasn't stopped the creative types from showing us how they think multiple apps should be handled, and a new video caught our eye today, and we're rather impressed...

Beautiful iPhone 5 Renders Look More Like iPhone Nano

With Apple's next iPhone announcement approaching fast, we're all more eager than ever to see what stunning creation Apple unveils next.

Apple Bans iPhone Story, a Game that Criticizes iPhone Production

If you haven't figured it out by now, Apple is very picky about applications it allows in its App Store. Even software that makes the cut can be removed at the drop of a hat if the company sees fit.

Apple's decision to reject and ban apps typically garners a fair amount of criticism from developers and the iOS community. And this time is no different. Hit the jump to see why Apple banned Molleindustria's iPhone Story...

Comic Pokes Fun at HTC’s Uncool iPhone Comments

For a company who's motto is Quietly Brilliant, they sure have (for the time being) a U.S. president that is loud and ignorant. The comments HTC's Martin Fichter made Monday about the iPhone being uncool are still echoing around the web.

For those of you who missed it, Fichter made some pretty wild accusations that the iPhone was becoming uncool, after speaking with some kids at his daughter's college. The comments set off an onslaught of criticism from tech pundits and Apple fans...

iMessage to Become Part of Mac OS X Lion’s iChat?

When iMessage was first announced by Apple way back in June, we all got very excited. The prospect of replacing SMS with something a little more 21st century appeals to us all, and getting rid of those ridiculous carrier charges is somewhat of a bonus.

What would really make iMessage stand out from most alternatives, and especially SMS, is the ability to send and receive messages from computers, as well as our iPads, iPod touches and iPhones. Currently, that's not possible, though as we've already made clear, other solutions already offer compelling alternatives.

New code discovered in OS X Lion's version of iChat suggests that iMessage may actually be coming to the desktop...
