Similar to the black front panel for the 4th-gen iPhone which was leaked back in February of this year, Mac Rumors is now reporting on a new front panel for iPhone 4G / HD which is white in color. Traditionally, Apple has offered iPhones in black and white colors with full black front panels for both.
Vietnamese are on a role! After the 4th-gen iPhone leak and the refreshed 2010 MacBook, Tinhte.com is now reporting on a new iPod touch 4G with a 2-megapixel Camera. The “DVT-1” stamp on the back of the device identifies it as an early prototype test model. This Foxconn manufactured prototype model boasts of 64GB memory and is running some sort of firmware diagnostic software.

The app is labeled as version 3.0 and can be downloaded for free from the iTunes App Store. Tweetie 2 was available for US $2.99 before acquisition.
The title says it all. Based on all the rumors and information that we have come to know so far from the lost Apple iPhone, the folks over at AppAdvice have come up with a complete technical specifications page for iPhone 4G / HD in an Apple like page format.
All the Apple iDevices (iPhone, iPad and iPod touch) are designed to be used with fingers. But occasionally, there are times when you wish you had a stylus to operate these devices. This is especially useful for iPad which really fails as a note-taking/drawing Tablet. Due to the capacitive nature of the screen, the traditional styluses don't work with these devices. This Mi-Stylus “has a special impregnated tip that replicates the physics of the human finger”.
There is yet another twist in the “lost” iPhone 4G tale. The highly controversial search warrant of Gizmodo’s editor Jason Chen and affidavit (PDF link) has revealed that Brian Hogan’s (the guy who found the lost iPhone in a bar) roommate Katherine Martinson tip has led Apple and cops to the arrest of the iPhone 4G finder. She did this to save herself from any wrongdoings as Hogan used her computer to restore the iPhone OS following the remote wipe by Apple.
Here is yet another one of those crap-gadgets that are good for nothing. The Sansui P72 is an oversized iPhone clone which is powered by a 1GHz Via C7-M CPU, and backed with 1GB of DDR2 ram and 32GB SSD. It features two USB ports (take that iPad !) along with one that doubles as eSATA, a 1.3 MP webcam, Gigabit Ethernet, and a 3 hours of battery life. The 7-inch resistive touchscreen with 800 x 480 isn’t something to write home about. Oh and this Apple clone runs Microsoft Windows XP, with an iPhone OS like interface layer to go on top of it.
Wi-Fi Sync is now available on Cydia for the jailbroken iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. With Wi-Fi Sync app, you can sync any of your iDevices with iTunes over a Wi-Fi network, just like Microsoft Zune.
Installous 3.1.2 (not the discontinued install0us) has been released and is now available for download via Cydia for jailbroken iDevices. The new version 3.1.2 brings support for iPad, along with a brand new user interface and a download manager which supports multiple files download at once. You’ll need a jailbroken iPhone with firmware 3.x or over in order to install this app. Follow the step by step guide to jailbreak your iPhone 2G, 3G, 3GS, iPod touch and iPad.
While this could be a Photoshop job, a new “dodgy” shot of the “lost” iPhone 4G in Vietnam has surfaced, which shows the handset running the upcoming iPhone OS 4. It is difficult to conclude on how these guys have tricked the phone into running the OS, considering the fact that Apple must have done a remote wipe following the leak yesterday.
