With the news that the next Nexus phone will be a Verizon exclusive, we’re sure many people are happy to hear that. Many people are not so happy with that, too. Still, even if the handset does debut on Verizon, I can’t imagine that another version wouldn’t pop up for other carriers. While this is…
TSMC sends 60 of their employees to Apple to work on future iPhone and iPad chips
Did you know that every single iOS device Apple has ever made, all 250+ million of them, have a processor inside that’s made by Samsung? Sure, Apple may have designed the A4 that first went inside the iPad and then showed up in the iPhone 4, but Samsung made the chips. Same thing for the…
Vodafone considering RIM acquisition?
RIM’s stock jumped yesterday on the rumour that Vodafone is considering acquiring the maker of BlackBerry. RIM’s market share is continuing to dwindle, and if the launch of QNX-powered smartphones early next year doesn’t pan out, they may very well be in the market for acquisition.

New iPhone 4S may not be just an updated version of iPhone 4
Word is that two iPhone models are going to be announced during Apple’s event tomorrow: a brand new iPhone 5, and an iPhone 4S, which was suspected to be a slightly upgraded version of the current iPhone 4. However, it might be receiving a bigger dose of treatment than just minor bumps in specs. BGR seems…

Well if all those British carriers can get the white version of the Samsung Galaxy S II, so can a Canada-based operator. Bell Mobility is Samsung’s “partner in crime” and will start selling the super-sexy smartphone on October 7th. In other words, if you live in Canada, still haven’t “pushed the button” and grabbed some…
Crafty Germans build their own iPhone 5 prototype
