I'd have to say it's pretty much impossible to mix 14nm and 16nm in the same product. Unless the design of the A9 is changed the chip would be physically a different size. So then you'd need to have to motherboard designs, one might end up now being…

You know Windows 8 will have an ARM version. I know a lot of apps won't run at least to start off with but clearly if it takes off in the Windows world Apple must be ready as well. ARM chips might not be as fast but they are probably fast enough for…

Well they wouldn't go to the effort of formatting the TV shows section to work on the iPhone for nothing would they? Seems a bit pointless. Especially as in one screenshot part of the interface is missing and in the next it's there suggests they are…

I think the new iPhone needs to be available for sale the day that all those 2G first day buyers contracts expire. Sure they can roll on for a month but the point is those people are then entiled to upgrade. If there is no new Apple iPhone to buy…

You guys are also missing something. The original iPhone could be brought and jailbroken without getting a contract. A reasonable amount of the phones brought in the US on launch or not too long after could well have gone overseas. This time in t…

I don't see why the music business wants more money for over the air downloads either. I can see why they might cost a little bit more money because the carriers might want to make a little bit of money. After all they provide most of us with unlimi…

There's another reason that Apple probably waited. Take a look at the Nokia N95 for instance. The first released versions only had 3G on 2100Mhz. That's great for pretty much the whole world but useless for North America. So Nokia had to release a N…

First of all a 3G chipset in a Nokia / SE, etc phone can generally have the same standby time on 2G as on 3G but take a look at the talk times between the 2. Anytime the 3G radio is active the power draw is higher than on 2G. Now Steve Jobs never…

This article isn't exactly true with regards to Flash Lite or Flash on a mobile device. For instance I had a Windows Mobile phone many years ago which had a Flash plugin for Pocket Internet Explorer. I don't know up to what version of Flash this sup…

Come on guys. It's just not going to happen. There is no point in a 11 odd inch tablet device as has been proved in the past by Windows Tablets and even Tablet XP / Vista doesn't sell that well. Next I don't really see the need for a smaller Appl…
