We're well and truly in the middle of iPhone rumor territory these days, and everyone's an expert it seems. Today's latest expert to offer claims of knowing what's going on in Cupertino is Hudson Square Research‘s Todd Rethemeier, who thinks the next iPhone will actually carry the iPhone 5 moniker and not the 4S we've been warming to.
iH8Sn0w, a Toronto-based iPhone developer, released iFaith, a new SHSH blob dumper for all iOS devices which can save SHSH files of any firmware running on your device even if Apple is not signing it.
Independent developers have a finite amount of time in which to put together their smartphone apps, and they obviously want to get the maximum return on their work. Taking their Android apps and porting them across to iOS is certainly a time consuming practice, assuming the particular developer has the technical know-how to do the work.
A new version of MacDefender has been found, hours after a Mac OS X security update that would supposedly fix the problem was issued. Let the cat and mouse fight begin!
We're just days away from this year's Apple Worldwide Developers Conference and as usual the rumor-mill is in full swing. Apple has already confirmed iOS 5 and Mac OS X Lion will be shown off at the event's keynote address, along with the much anticipated iCloud service, whatever that may turn out to be. But now we have a whole new rumor, and we like it. We like it a lot!
MacDefender is a Mac OS X malware threat that's spread considerably over the last few weeks, and has now been patched with a security update.
In a press, release, Apple confirmed that an iCloud service will be unveiled at WWDC on Monday, June 6th, as well as iOS 5 and Mac OS X Lion, the company's next-generation computer operating system. Yes folks, no new iPhone hardware is going to be released this time around.
Well well well, the whole Apple Vs. Samsung legal debacle just took a turn for the down right strange. According to ThisIsMyNext's Nilay Patel, Samsung's lawyers have asked courts to order Apple to hand over the company's latest iPhone 5 and iPad 3 prototypes so they can check their own hardware doesn't mirror that of hardware coming from Cupertino any time soon.
One of the factors that points to an imminent release of a product is when ads for it are being made. An alleged post on Craigslist regarding a cast call for an "iPhone 5" ad was posted and pulled within two hours, but thankfully still indexed by a few search engines and screen captured by some users. Is a new iPhone imminent?
In an Apple support document the company says it intends to release a security update to address the potential threat from malware claiming to offer a security application for download.
