Since the beginning of this year, rumors have been heating up that Apple will release not one, but two iPhone models this year. One of these devices would be the next flagship iPhone 5 based on the the current pricing structure, while the second device would be a cheaper (possibly pre-paid) "Nano" handset.
Apple's COO and CFO have chimed in on what it would take for the company to release a cheaper iPhone. They describe that the product would need to be an, "innovative, category-killer experience."
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...
Keeping track of your data consumption is becoming an increasingly important habit for smartphone users. Carriers have started enforcing tiered data plans, and data consumption is becoming more expensive for those that use their devices heavily.
AT&T recently announced that it would begin throttling unlimited data customers in October, so everyone will need to be monitoring their data consumption soon. On the iPhone, there's an excellent app for real-time data tracking called DataMan Pro...

In what can only be described as a bold claim, and possibly a bit of link bait, voucher site iLoveCashback.com has claimed that Apple's wunder-tablet, the iPad 2, is no longer the must-have gadget.
The new champion? RIM's BlackBerry PlayBook. It's ok, we'll wait for you to pick yourself back up off the floor.
Up? Ok, here's how they come to that rather amazing conclusion...
Rdio, the popular subscription based music streaming service, has finally released an official iPad app. Up until now, there was no iPad app, only an app for the iPhone/iPod touch.
If you want to download this app, it will show up as an update if you have the iPhone app installed on your iPad. Along with a new iPad interface, the app also has in app-purchasing.
Today, Google updated its mobile web app to fully support Apple's Retina Display, bringing a crisper experience to those of us who use the web app in order to get full support for certain Gmail features, like labels.

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.

iOS 5 is just around the corner for those of us without developer accounts, and Apple has already begun to approve apps with iOS 5 compatibility in the App Store.

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.
