With iPhone excitement beginning to reach fever pitch head of tomorrow's announcement by Apple, we're beginning to see all kinds of leaks and web-based mishaps. The latest in a long line is from Vodafone's German arm, who's web store now appears to be listing new iPhone models in its compatibility lists.

Oliver Haslam has written about technology for over a decade. His work has been published in print at Macworld and online pretty much everywhere else. If it plugs in or has a battery, it's fair game.
SpyPhoto is a Cydia tweak which allows taking of photographs using an iDevice's front or rear facing camera, without the need to open the Camera app. Added benefits include the fact that no sound is made either, meaning it's great for when you're on a top secret espionage mission, or trying to get photos of a prototype iPhone without Tim Cook's cronies knowing.
Samsung's recently released AllShare DLNA app offers Windows Phone owners of the Sammy persuasion the ability to share all kinds of media over a WiFi network to any DLNA-compatible TV or set-top box. The problem though, is that when attempting to run the app on certain Samsung devices, users were met with an error, and as a result were unable to take advantage of what AllShare has to offer. The popular belief is that Samsung doesn't want owners of certain handsets to have access to AllShare, though the reasoning is unclear. With that in mind, it's possible that users could experience some off behavior on certain handsets, but we've not seen any reports either for, or against that theory just yet.
If there is one major complaint that can be leveled at Apple's stock iOS Photos app, it's the complete lack of any kind of basic image editing features. There isn't even a way to rotate your photos, for those rare occasions you manage to take a photo with your iPhone in the wrong orientation.
iPhone 4S Name Appears In Latest iTunes Beta. Same Design As iPhone 4, Dual Mode GSM/CDMA Capability
We're firmly in iPhone rumor territory now, with three days to go before Apple announces whatever they have hidden up their sleeves. We may have a better idea as to what Apple will bestow upon us on the 4th now though, thanks to a leak from Apple's own software team.
If you're a Mac aficionado, the chances are you're familiar with a Safari plugin going by the name of ClickToFlash. A must have for anyone who's ever entertained the idea of visiting a web page that is festooned with Flash content, ClickToFlash would set about blocking the Adobe abomination as soon as the web page in question began to be rendered.
In what can only be described as another nail in the iPod Classic's coffin, Apple has now removed all click-wheel games from the iTunes store.
Turns out people are pretty excited about the whole iPhone 5 thing, and the folks over at AT&T are no different. The carrier, Apple's first ever iPhone partner, may now have been relegated to also-rans, but that doesn't appear to have dampened their enthusiasm for the cash cow that is the iPhone.
We may only have five days to wait until we get to see the real thing, but here's the next best thing - a mock-up of the iPhone 5, made using data and rumors from across the internet.
Infographics. Everybody loves 'em. They're like great big pictures that tell a thousand, and often more words, all in a colorful and image-laden way.
