Over the last decades, we've witnessed a trend of an increasing number of large retailers going out of business or becoming less relevant by the day. GameStop, a popular game retailer, is trying to counter that trend by tapping into a growing and profitable market of iOS devices.
Three days ago, we heard about Samsung pulling their newly-announced Galaxy Tab 7.7 from the IFA show floor, possibly because of Apple injunctions against Samsung’s products in Germany. This was later indirectly confirmed by the company and today, more information has been revealed about the event as well as the Apple-Samsung case in general.
Rumors of a next-gen iPhone have been ongoing. Now, at the beginning of September, we can stand here and say with almost full certainty that an iPhone 5 release is imminent. According to a new report, two Taiwanese companies have been identified and are now said to be producing 8-megapixel cameras for a new Apple device.
As Japanese blog Macotakara reports, Chinese manufacturers Foxconn and Pegatron are currently in full flow as they strive to meet the order demands set upon them by Apple. Foxconn is dealing with the vast majority at 85%, whilst Pegatron, which rather ironically sounds like a robot, is taking care of the remaining 15%.
Despite the fact that it has yet to be announced, German Telecommunications giant Deutsche Telekom (the parent company of T-Mobile), has begun taking pre-orders of Apple's much-anticipated device.

After coming across a rather interesting op-ed, we pondered over the possibility of an Apple product line-up where the popular iPod touch would be replaced by a low-end iPhone, similarly priced as the iPod touch. It made a lot of sense to us, and we’ll tell you exactly why. Read the full post, after the break!
At the very basic level, there are two types of keyboards in use on smartphones today: physical and virtual. Virtual keyboards, like that on the iPhone and popular Android devices, are generally more widespread while physical keyboards are more popular with people who prefer tactile feedback which is, of course, missing on virtual keyboards.
If you own a MacBook Air, except for the new mid-2011 models, and have upgraded to Lion already, you're probably now wondering what do to do with the restore USB drive that was sold along with it, since you likely won't want to use Snow Leopard ever again. Instead of throwing a perfectly good USB drive away, why not use it as a standard 8GB USB stick?
You may remember the report we covered a few days back of the "N94" prototypes doing the rounds across the internet. The codenamed device, which sounds more like something from the Nokia lineup than Apple, is suspected to become the iPhone 4S if and when it reaches fruition.
