Spam text messages are nothing new, but security research firm Cloudmark is now warning people of a new approach being taken by those who previously relied on SMS to peddle their spam.
Apple has already received plenty of plaudits for the way it has worked to try and reduce the number of iPhone thefts in big cities, but a newly discovered patent application shows that the firm isn't resting on its laurels.

Apple’s next big smartphone release, known as the iPhone 6 in the interwebs, is set to embrace sapphire glass for its front panel, if countless reports are to be believed. And with the Cupertino outfit having already tested sapphire’s toughness in the iPhone 5s’s Touch ID fingerprint sensor and the iPhone 5 and 5s’s camera lens, it was logical to take things up a notch this time around.
The iPhone 6 may be grabbing all of the recent headlines due to its impending announcement, but spare a thought for those who prefer to stay away from Apple's smartphone lineup and only look to the Cupertino company for their tablet needs.

New details are being uncovered on a daily basis with regards to the iPhone 6, with part leaks abundant during these first stages of production. Today, new info on the camera module and battery of the forthcoming device have been leaked into the wild, offering an early preview on what we can expect of these two pivotal components.
