Seriously. Apple’s following its own trend of adding a speed bump to an existing design, so I don’t see why everybody was expecting an iPhone 5. All the hype about the iPhone 5 is just that— hype. The media caught onto the rumors and propagated them to the point of everybody expecting them to be truth, but in the end they were still just rumors, albeit ones that went a bit further than previous ones, with mockups and fake cases made. And come on people, having a wedge/tapered shape would only make the iPhone look like an uglier iPod Touch, so shut up about that already. Thanks.

Steve Jobs, co-founder of Apple, passed away today at the age of 56. The tech world has indeed lost a great man, a visionary, a marketing genius, and a passionate CEO. Continue reading →

Edit: Apple’s officially announced the iPhone 4S, and most of my predictions are pretty much true.
With the Apple iPhone press conference tomorrow, the interwebs have been abuzz with rumors, fake pictures, supposed mockups, and downright fake “prototypes.” I know that I’m not strictly a tech blogger anymore, nor am I an iPhone user anymore, but my Apple fanboy interests still remain piqued.

Back then, I just thought they looked nice, I knew little about their OS.

I love my iPhone. Actually, loved would be a better way to say it, as I no longer have it. No it didn’t break or get stolen, I simply traded it to my dad for his Blackberry. Blasphemy, right? Well I have a pretty good reason for doing this. As you all may or may not know, in order to get the magical iPhone 4 for only $199, you have to sign your soul away to AT&T for two years. Being the heavy data/text user I am, I had to take the most expensive plan, which ran at about $100 a month.

On Tuesday, Verizon held a press conference where the Verizon iPhone was finally announced, after years of speculation. The new iPhone is nearly identical to its AT&T counterpart, save for a different antenna design and a missing SIM slot. What does this mean for AT&T customers such as myself? Better service, and hopefully cheaper monthly rates. AT&T’s going to have to start doing something to keep its customers from running to Verizon. Competition is always good for the customers though. It’ll drive both carriers to keep making improvements.
