While Apple's iCloud has enjoyed a good start to its life as a fully-fledged cloud service, the Cupertino company recognizes the importance of constantly updating and improving it - particularly given Microsoft and Google's recently introduced cloud-based efforts SkyDrive and Google Drive.
New iPhone 5 concept images, created by the owner of a Kickstarter project, show what we suspect would be many people's choice for the design of the unannounced smartphone, even if we can't see Apple ever going for it.
The release of the innovative Dashboard X tweak has given a new lease of life to all of those Notification Center based widgets that have been sitting stagnant in the add-ons section of Cydia.

Regardless of whether you love it or hate it, Apple has pumped a lot of time, money and resources into the development and release of the Siri virtual assistant.

So, the giant-screened aluminum monstrosity that is the wet dream of most iPhone concept artists is not a guarantee. As iMore notes, Apple unsurprisingly - they are a highly design-oriented company after all - extensively prototypes all future devices that they plan on releasing.
New discoveries suggest that iOS 6 could be shown off at WWDC, with a beta iCloud web portal potentially giving away the secrets of the developer get-together that kicks off next month.
Apple have only recently pushed out their latest update for the second and third-generation Apple TV, but already the ever reliable and always hard working development teams have been at work implementing their packages in order to bring the public a tethered jailbreak for Apple's puck like set-top box.
Well well well, if the rumors of an Apple television were rampant before, then this latest development certainly isn't going to slow them down. In fact, depending on which side of the fence you sit on, this particular rumor could go so far as to confirm the existence of the fabled Apple Television.
