As with the leaked info post regarding upcoming Apple accessories we brought you earlier, there'll likely be quite a few general reports during the next couple of hours leading up to the beginning of the event, and in our latest roundup of intelligence regarding today's special keynote gathering, it looks as though the iPhone 5 name seems a dead certainty.
The main focus of attention at today's Apple media event at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco is, without doubt, the next-generation iPhone. Fans have yearned for months for this day to arrive, and despite the anticipation regarding the fruit company's smartphone, it's by no means the only thing on show at the event.
Larry Hryb, better known as Xbox LIVE's Major Nelson, has just showcased two new goodies for Microsoft's flagship Xbox 360 console, and if you're a pretty big Halo fan, at least one, if not both of the new releases will be of some interest.
In about 17 hours from the time I type this, Apple will open the doors at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco, California where they will be announcing the next iPhone. We have seen plenty of rumors and reports and leaks over the past few weeks and months which give a definite shape to the illusive device’s hardware, but there’s one thing in the air that is still heavily discussed and, so far, inconclusive: the next iPhone’s name.
If you are in a state of cellphone limbo and can't decide whether your life needs iOS, Android or Windows Phone in it, or are having difficulties choosing between your Apples, Samsungs and Nokias then you might have considered asking your peers what to do, or alternatively just searching the web for the latest in smartphone goodness. Either way, the chances are that during that time of intense reflection, the iPhone and the Galaxy S III probably popped up as recommended devices.
There's no doubt that the overwhelming majority of tech enthusiasts will be making special arrangements in order to catch the coverage of the new iPhone tomorrow, but the fruit company's smartphone isn't the only new product or feature expected to make an appearance at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco.
Those of you who are familiar with jailbreaking, rooting or unlocking their smartphone will know that the tools that apply these modifications use an exploit - either in your device’s software or hardware - to get system-level access and allow other applications to do the same.
As the release of the iPhone 5 draws nearer, more and more reports have indicated what we might be seeing with the purported iPod range refresh. With most using their smartphones as digital music players, it's easy to see why the iPod has been left somewhat in the shade, but it certainly looks as though Apple isn't about to ditch its iconic brand of portable entertainment.
It's almost that time of the year again. No, I'm not referring to the release of the iPhone 5 tomorrow in San Francisco, but an even longer-standing institution among tech fans. Of course, I'm talking about the FIFA series, and as any ardent football fan (or soccer fan, if you reside in America) will tell you, it's most certainly the ultimate simulation of The Beautiful Game.
The iPhone 5 is only a day away from announcement, but such is the veil of secrecy around upcoming Cupertino products, that we've still only had a few sightings of the device at this late stage. Plenty of dummy models have also been doing the rounds throughout much of Europe and Asia, and it now appears those non-working replicas are beginning to filter through to the United States.
