There has been much speculation about the next iPhone. We're all assuming it's going to be called the iPhone 5, but then we thought the iPhone 4S was going to have the '5' moniker attached to it too, and we all know how that turned out.
Insurance policies for our beloved gadgets can often cost an arm and a knee, and as such, we're always on the lookout for cheaper ways to protect our devices as best possible.
The iPhone 4S is now three months old, which means the inevitable barrage of rumors and speculation will be hitting our screens in the coming weeks and months regarding future devices from Apple, especially the iPhone 5 and iPad 3.

Apple's iOS isn't exactly a cutesy operating system. Steve Jobs and co set out to make the iPhone, iPod and iPad OS as usable as possible without adding unnecessary bells and whistles.
