Italian Court denies Samsung’s motion for an iPhone 4S injunction
In a makeshift legal game of monkey-see monkey-do, Samsung’s response to a multitude of Apple lawsuits alleging patent infringement has been to file countersuits in a number of jurisdictions and seek injunctions against various Apple products. So far, that plan has been failing spectacularly. Apple, meanwhile, has achieved a few notable legal victories in the […]
Continue reading...Sprint pays Apple $200 more per iPhone than AT&T and other carriers
Wednesday, October 26, 2011
Update: Our apologies. In our haste we misread the blurb from Dan Hesse. The subsidy Sprint pays Apple is not $200 more than AT&T pays. Rather, the subsidy it pays to Apple is $200 more it pays for other devices. Shortly before Apple officially announced the iPhone 4S, a report emerged claiming that Sprint was […]

Comments Off on From the “Forbes puts this drivel on its website?” department
Following the iPhone 4S announcement, Forbes had a remarkably vapid article disparaging Apple’s next-gen iPhone up on its website. Due on October 14, this remarkably sucky, shoddy, sloppy, slapped together disaster of a phone will undoubtedly receive huge sales, endless attention, and a fair amount of praise from Apple loyalists. But if you own an […]

Apple is a company that likes routine refresh cycles. Every September it releases new iPods. Every April is poised to be time for a new iPad. And every Summer, Apple releases a new iPhone.

Comments Off on More iPhone 4S HD video footage – “My Morning On The Couch”
Here’s yet another video showcasing 1080p HD footage taken with the recently released iPhone 4S. The footage isn’t all that gripping, but it has a nice soundtrack – Blue Spotted Tail by Fleet Foxes – and really shows off the depth of quality the iPhone 4S camera can capture.

Comments Off on HD Video shot with the iPhone 4S is pretty, pretty, pretty good.
Benjamin Dowie decided to use his new iPhoen 4S to shot some footage as part of his surfing excursion. What he recorded is truly remarkable for a camera phone. And it sure as hell beats the Canon video camera I spent over $600 bucks on in 2008. It’s actually amazing. The automatic stabilisation seems to […]

Comments Off on Using Siri on an iPhone 4
In presenting iPhone users with reasons to upgrade, Apple typically relies on hardware. A new processor, a new camera, HD video, and sometimes, a new form factor. But every now and again, Apple will use software as impetus for upgrading, as was the case with Siri, Apple’s new voice recognition feature in iOS 5 that […]

Comments Off on Sprint calls the iPhone the most successful product launch in Sprint history
Sprint reportedly took a big gamble on the iPhone, with a report two weeks ago claiming that the nations’ third largest carrier committed to purchasing 30.5 million iPhones regardless of whether or not its consumer base proved to be iPhone hungry. When Dan Hesse presented the plan to Sprint’s board of directors, many of them were naturally […]
