An electrical contractor in Austin, Texas has reported that he’s installed a Sprint cellular signal repeater inside an Apple Store capable of increasing CDMA and WiMAX coverage. There have been rumours that Sprint would get an iPhone 4S variant, but we’re also seeing a lot of suggestions of a whole new iPhone 5 device, making…
Remember that story about the iPhone 5 prototype being lost in a bar? Well, the San Francisco Police Department is saying that it doesn’t have any record of this happening. The original CNET story cited anonymous sources which said an Apple employee lost the prototype at a San Francisco bar, the San Francisco police helped…
The next-generation Apple iPhone rumors are in full swing, as we’re fully expecting the iPhone 5 (maybe on Sprint too) and Reuters is now reporting that Apple suppliers are building an 8 GB iPhone 4 like device too. Could this be the cheaper iPhone 4S we’ve heard about? The report said that Apple suppliers are…
When the iPhone 3GS was released, an 8GB version of the 3G became available for dirt cheap. When the iPhone 4 was released, an 8GB version of the 3GS was also released for a much lower price. So, let’s see here, there is a chance that the iPhone 5 is coming soon–does this mean we’ll…

If iPhone 5 rumors weren’t enough to induce nausea, try rumors of another future Apple smartphone – one with LTE capabilities. It is certainly inevitable, but it seems as though Steve Jobs & Co.…
We’ve been waiting for what seems like ages for the iPhone 5, and it just might be announced during Apple’s next live event. There is word that the event will take place September 7, roughly around the same time that the iTunes music event last year. Since we’ve already heard all we need to know…
The iPhone 5 will be announced within a month or so and I started wondering whether Apple will be able to impress us… again. We think we know pretty much all of the features, leaving little space for a surprise. According to various rumors we’ve been hearing during the last couple of months, the iPhone…
We’ve been expecting the iPhone 5 to launch this September, hopefully coinciding with the release of iOS 5. All rumors point towards a September launch, but a new rumor sets it in October. It makes a little bit of sense if Apple plans to hold its usual music event in September as it did last…
