Being announced in the UK, it could be possible that Europe could receive the phone first. But we just have to wait and see until Thursday.

Back in 2007 when Apple released the original iPhone, they released it with the same 3.5″ display we see on the iPod Touch, and also the current iPhone, but now we’ve heard Apple’s idea was to release it with a physical keyboard.
Remember the days when Samsung we’re good? Nah, just kidding, but it seems Apple’s original idea was to copy Samsung’s, remember some of Apple’s devices back then? The BlackJack? Apple thought this was the future, but soon went with a more direct approach with the touchscreen, and then went on to indroduce this in 2007, and we now think Samsung are copying Apple in a recent Lawsuit we have on us, where Apple are trying to ban Samsung in every way possible.

The Max Payne mobile app came out early April for iOS users, but seems that Rockstar has delayed the app and we have no clue on when we can expect to see the app.
Rockstar confirmed the app still needs further testing, but Google Play will still receive the app in the next few days or so.
You disappointed by this news?
The innovative Call of Duty franchise may soon be greeted with a follow up to one of 2010′s biggest shooters, Black Ops, and we could be seeing Black Ops 2 as soon as November 13th, according to a report from US group Target.
However with Halo 4 coming out only on the 4th of the same month, both games could face some rival competition with each other, and maybe need a re-think of the release dates to avoid clashing.
What do you think of Black Ops 2 coming out this winter? Check the image below of what seems to be a Target reservation card for the game for both Xbox(left) and PS3(right)
Apple have officially announced that WWDC will be held in San Francisco, and will start the week commencing June 11th.
“We have a great WWDC planned this year and can’t wait to share the latest news about iOS and OS X Mountain Lion with developers,” said Philip Schiller.”
WWDC can hope to bring the latest in the Mac OS line, and maybe even some new products launched to market, but one can hazard a guess on what we will see.
People are also saying Apple could announce there new iPhone this event, but usually Apple hold on for a year of the last iPhone, and WWDC usually consists of software and Mac products.
Tuesday, Apple posted the financial results for the 2012 second quarter of 2012, ending March 31. Apple announced a revenue of $39.2 billion with a quarterly net profit of $11.6 billion, or $12.30 per share. One year ago, Apple posted a revenue of $24.7 billion with a quarterly net profit of $6.0 billion at $6.40 per share. That’s a 94% year-over-year increase.
Apple sold 35.1 million iPhones, 11.8 million iPads, 4 million Macs, and 7.7 million iPods. “We’re thrilled with sales of over 35 million iPhones and almost 12 million iPads in the March quarter,” CEO Tim Cook said. “The new iPad is off to a great start, and across the year you’re going to see a lot more of the kind of innovation that only Apple can deliver.”
“Our record March quarter results drove $14 billion in cash flow from operations,” said CFO Peter Oppenheimer. “Looking ahead to the third fiscal quarter, we expect revenue of about $34 billion and diluted earnings per share of about $8.68.”
These reports come a year after Apple’s record breaking first quarter results in January, including $46.3 billion in profit and a $13 billion profit.
The inevitable iPad has been a worldwide domination in the tablet market, and iPad Mini rumours have always flocked the streets. But more recently we’ve heard even more news of an iPad Mini.
But recently we’ve also been hearing news of an ‘iPhone Mini’ which will still have iPhone features but obviously will be smaller than the original iPhone, possibly holding a 3″/3.2″ screen, and considerably cheaper than the iPhone we know today.
Yeah. It’s finally here. Google Drive available for Mac,iOS, Windows & Android of course. Gives 5GB free storage + several paid options up to 16TB.

Adding to the rumor mill about the “iTV”, French designer Philippe Starck recently said that he has been working with Apple on a new “revolutionary” product. Starck said that this product will be announced within the next 8 months. Is Apple now designing the fabled “iTV”, the next iPhone, or even a brand new product that will change the world?
In an interview on France Info, Starck said “Indeed, there is a big project together which will be out in 8 months.” As we all know, Starck couldn’t say more because of Apple’s “religious cult of secrecy.” In the interview, Starck revealed that he had regular meeting with Steve Jobs and is now planning on meeting with Jobs’s widow, Laurene Powell Jobs.
One of the bigger questions here is why isn’t Jonathan Ive designing this new product? Every Apple fanboy knows that the iPod, iMac, and iPhone all come from Ive’s secret studios under the Apple Campus. It is definitely no question that these products are a huge hit. So, why would Apple want to recruit someone who basically designs the opposite of Apples aluminum and glass wrapped, sleek products? Maybe Tim Cook is taking Apple’s slogan to the extreme and thinking different. Starcks designs are known for being…different, but they just do not match up with Apple and Ive.
As some may know, Starck has designed speakers, headphones, and even chairs. Starck also has his Parrot Zikmu iPod/iPhone dock sold in select countries through Apple’s online store. Hopefully, Starck is collaborating with Ive and creating what could be the most “revolutionary” product since the iPod.
Hey folks! Today I want to write something about new magazine app in Google Play Store!
Sorry for the layout of this article, but something crashed in Admin Panel.
Zite has already +10 000 downloads on Android 2.1+ devices. It’s not such a big thing but the application itself is very interesting. It’s also available in App Store for iPhone, iPad & iPod touch running iOS 4 and above.
One Japanese news crew managed to get a statement from a Foxconn employee stating a new iPhone releasing in October, however Maeil Business Newspaper recently said that the ‘next generation’ iPhone will be hitting shelves this coming Autumn. We don’t have much details so far on this, but it’s quite hard to believe that anyone working at Foxconn will be know anything at all on the release of the next iPhone
What are your thoughts, Fall or this coming October for the next iPhone?
Blackberry’s Playbook has been a hit or miss, launching a while back at a really stupid price, even more in places than the iPad. But around Christmas, the Playbook got a huge price cut, making the 16GB model only £169, and this offer is still available at the likes of Currys!
But however, recently, a picture showing that the Playbook is running 4G, has been released onto the internet, looking quite realistic, and showing the same build quality as the Blackberry Playbook!
However, pictures containing the 4G chip and BBM on the tablet has also been released.
Does this all look legit to you?

Nokia Lumia 900 vs. iPhone 4S: Specs Compared. Thank you TechnoBuffalo for sharing this article.

Despite the release of the iPhone 4S, many imaginative and exciting rumours are going around about the iPhone 5.
2012 has been a competitive year for grasping the best camera in a smartphone on the market. 3D camera’s have begun to come more into fashion, it was no surprise to see smartphone company’s beginning to embed these high end camera’s into their handsets. LG and HTC are no expection to this with the Optimus 3D and Evo 3D.
According to ‘Apple-Apparently’, Apple are working on 3D technology. They are suggesting that the 3D camera is being tried out on multiple iOS devices.
This 3D camera business doesn’t just end here though, it is said to also recognise face and gesture movements i.e. whether you are smiling or frowning. Interestingly, it has been said it will allow you to capture 3D video of an object, or taking 3D photos while it’s rotating, means that in theory we will also be able to view 3D models, even of our entire house. Apple conjured up mentions stitching together different 3D photos and videos and using LIDAR, RADAR and laser sensors to calculate the depth and surface detail of every object in entire rooms.
Apple could some have a killer iPhone camera, now that would add competition to the market! Are you excited over this news?

Last week, An Apple engineer “Michael Margolis” was discussing the latest UI that has been implemented on the Apple TV. For those unfamiliar, the new Apple TV UI will be released at the March 7th. The thing is it hasn’t that much of change some people like the new change, others want the “old-fashioned” same UI.
Michael Margolis, who formerly served as an Apple TV UI designer, said on his Twitter last night that Steve Jobs refused the change in the latest UI five years ago, however TODAY Tim cook approved it.
Margolis further that night tweeted that “Nobody is (at Apple) to say no to bad design.” Which means that Steve jobs is the one who said “NO” to bad designs. But since he passed away, nobody at apple say “no” to bad designs.
Another example that supports that is, the 4G indicator that AT&T included in Apple’s iOS 5.1 update. Many ios users hates that, and it obvious in their tweets. One person tweeted “Steve Jobs would never accept that”.
