There are rumors going around the web that the totally irrelevant release of Leopard might also give way to the iPhone being opened up to 3rd-party developers for new applications. Apparently, Apple will not fully open its iPhone platform to all the developers, but at least initially, to the major software companies. The rumor further…
Canadian luxury retailer Holt Renfrew to start selling iPhones next year?
While this rumor is at early stages, somehow it does make sense for Apple to use an additional channel beside the carrier’s stores for iPhone’s distribution. So, we may see Apple partnering with a GSM carrier in Canada, but also with a retail chain to reach as many buyers as possible — after all, they…
Sony Ericsson P3i teaser/spy pics/screenshot?
What you just saw is apparently a blurry glimpse of the still unconfirmed Sony Ericsson P3i’s screen. We’re not sure from where this is coming, nor whether it’s real. However, we are sure that at some point the Swedish-Japanese company will release the successor to its P1i model. Hopefully, it will pack a better screen…
Apple working on offline storage for iPhone Safari browser-based applications?
By now it’s an accepted fact that Apple is working to kill any and all native third-party application not sanctioned by Mr. Steve Jobs himself. However, that doesn’t mean that third-party applications aren’t in the cards for the iPhone. Apple’s made it clear that they want third-party iPhone application developers to concentrate on web-based applications…
RIM prepping 3G, iPhone-fighting BlackBerry 9000/9xxx?
RIM is really on a roll recently. They’ve been pumping out handsets faster than ever, and it looks like RIM’s next big handset will aim at Apple’s iPhone. It makes sense, since every phone manufacturer out there is gunning to, well, out-gun the iPhone with touchscreen offerings of their own. Research In Motion (RIM), makers…
Another RIM BlackBerry outage?
The title says it all. Reports are coming in from various interwebs that indicate another RIM BlackBerry server outage. If this turns out to be more than a regional/isolated outage, we’re looking at yet another RIM outage – the second outage in as many months. Oh, and this would make it strike three for RIM’s…
Apple looking towards Intel chips for next-gen iPhone – Intel Inside iPhone 2.0
Could the next Apple iPhone bear the famous “Intel Inside” sticker that tells everyone that your packing some serious Santa Clara heat? Well, given Apple’s preference for minimalist design and clean lines in their sexy-fied products, it’s not likely that any Apple device will be sporting an “Intel Inside” sticker, much less the iPhone. But,…
Did Sony Ericsson accidently out the Sony Ericsson P3?
We’ve all seen the Sony Ericsson P3 concepts, but never an image of what could possibly be the real Sony Ericsson P3. JustAMP got their hands on this Sony Ericsson advertisement that includes a picture of an unknown, unannounced phone. We’re hearing speculation that this mystery phone (in the red boxes below) could be the…
Helio kills the Drift – to be followed by Helio Mysto?
It’s not like Helio’s got a huge lineup of mobile phones in the first place, and now they’ve gone and killed one of their more promising devices – the Helio Drift. The GPS-packing Samsung slider is no more, it’s apparently been pulled from the website. But Helio fans need not despair. Word on the street…
Sony Ericsson K850i, W960i spotted for sale on Ebay Italy
Apparently two upcoming Sony Ericsson handsets, K850i Cyber-shot and W960i Walkman, were spotted for sale on eBay Italy. While we want to believe these handsets are already available, somehow I doubt that it’s true especially for the W960i, which should hit the streets somewhere in December. On the other hand, the seller seems quite respectable,…
