Apple produced 5 phones with the legacy port, 5 phones with the Lightning port, so the pattern points to a change this time around.  I doubt it will happen as Apple has invested heavily in Lightning and with the headphone change on the 7, a change this year would cause all kinds of uproar.  One day maybe...  Besides, they want to control what is lugged into their phones for "quality" purposes and with USB-C they would loose that.

Circulating via BitTorrent sites and called “Patcher," the malware poses as a crack for pirates to get around copy protection and licensing systems used in popular software suites.

Thieves stealing from other thieves. How utterly delicious. Of course the tech news media will be all over this as proof macOS is juts as unsafe and dangerous to use as Windows. The FUD will fly telling users their Mac are vulnerable.

As usual, it is not an OS problem but yet again a PEBKAC issue.  A majority of viruses/spyware/malware is the result of users inattention and/or naivete.

AT&T wants to remain competitive and yet they charge those prices? LOL

It's a joke.  Switched from AT&T to T-Mobile last July after being on AT&T for about 15 years.  NO regrets.

But how do I verify coverage is going to work for the places I go?  ATT works where I need it and that is what makes it hard.  We have 6 phones on the plan so have to cater to everyone's needs.  Guess that is what makes it hard to switch.  If just my wife and I then would be easier but still, how do people test coverage?

Good for Sony. Now they need to create a true optical zoom capability that's more than the "standard" lens on the iPhone 7 Plus. Get the interface between the camera's DRAM and the iPhone storage going at the highest speed possible and this configuration could create a viable videographer's tool for a real movie.

The iPhone has already been used to create "real movies" (and one was even nominated for an Academy Award, for whatever that's worth).

...
Talents can far outweigh the quality of the tools. (no I'm not referring at all to Apple)

Agreed...too many think they are a pro photographer just because they have a good camera.  It takes a lot more than that.

Until they disclose 5% increase from what, the number is meaningless.  Numbers have no meaning without the units attached.
