Data caps, tethering arrive on the iPhone, iPad
Barely one month after the iPad 3G went on sale promising users unlimited 3G data for a reasonable price, AT&T has now decided that data caps make more sense and has done away with the $29 unlimited plan. As of June 7th, the company will offer 2 data-capped plans for all smartphones, the $15 DataPlus [...]

January 27th Apple Event Preview Part 1: The Tablet
Unless you've been living under a rock for the past few months, you are probably well aware that tomorrow, Wednesday January 27th, Apple is hosting one of its infamous "Events" and the centerpiece will be a tablet-like iDevice which was, coincidentally, just "confirmed" by the CEO of publisher McGraw-Hill on CNBC minutes before this post was sent to the presses.The big questions are, what will it be like? What sort of tech specs will be under the hood? Based on years of following the Tablet's development through our sources in Cupertino and backed up by grapevine consensus, here's what we're expecting at the heart of tomorrow's announcements.

Will the ‘iTablet’ run iPhone OS or Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard?
As "iTablet" (Macbook Touch? iPhone Cinema?) rumors have reached a fever pitch in recent days thanks to several disclosures and leaks by third parties privy to late-stage prototypes of the device, speculation has mounted as to which variant of OS X it will run -- will it be an iPhone (ARM CPU, iPhone OS) or a Mac (Intel processor, OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard)?

WWDC Preview Part 3: iPod Touch, Other iDevices, One More Thing?
With time before today's WWDC Keynote growing short and breaking rumors of Steve Jobs' presence at the Moscone Center sending the grapevine into a frenzy, let's take a quick look at some of the less certain, but no less exciting, possibilities that we might see emerge into the light of day this morning (PDT)/afternoon (EDT) in San Francisco: new iPod Touch model(s), other iDevices ("iTablet"?!), and the ever-present potential for a completely unanticipated "One More Thing" -- potential that has just received a huge injection of probability if the Steve Jobs sightings at Moscone are what they appear to be.

WWDC 2009 Preview Part 2: iPhone OS 3.0 & Snow Leopard
With the WWDC 2009 Keynote event nearly upon us, let's taking a quick look at what we can expect from Apple's next-generation operating systems: iPhone OS 3.0 and Mac OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard". Although we've known for some time now that we'll only see a 'Final Beta' of Snow Leopard this week, expectations for iPhone OS are somewhat less certain. In both cases, we anticipate a few surprises....the real question is how big they'll be.

Apple reportedly in talks with Verizon, Sprint over 2010 iPhones & 4G
Although short on details, several published reports appear to confirm what Rumors has been reporting for some time now: that Apple and Verizon, who originally rejected a partnership with Infinite Loop on the original iPhone in what is widely considered one of the cellular provider's biggest mistakes of all time, are in talks to deliver fourth-generation (2010) iDevices for Verizon's customers. Although not mentioned elsewhere, Rumors' sources also report that this could have implications for an Apple-Sprint relationship, as well.

Apple announces $1.33/share Q2 profit, shatters Wall Street estimates
The grapevine widely predicted that Apple, Inc. (AAPL)'s second quarter financials would "beat the Street" -- but even some of the more optimistic predictors, Rumors included, were hesitant to suggest numbers quite as enthusiastic as they believed were possible. We need not have been so conservative; sales in every area were ahead of expectations and even insiders (more than a few) have been pleasantly surprised by the performance of Mac and non-Touch iPod sales as these sectors weather a near-perfect storm in the marketplace.

Supplier orders already in for over four million new 2009 iPhones?!
A recent China Commercial Times report on Apple's next generation iPhones includes the suggestion that an order is already in for more than four million units(!). But how does this report fit into the overall picture of the 2009 iDevices -- and what do experienced rumor-mongers say about the other details in the CCT article?

Next-gen iDevice picture coming together
At the same time as developers and *ahem* "others" have been looking under the hood of Apple's developmental "iPhone 3.0b2" operating system to discover clues to what sort of next-generation devices ("iDevices" or iTouch Platform Architecture, "IPA;" call them what you will) this powerful new OS will be running on as soon as June or July....other pieces of evidence, both publicly known and in the "insider" realm, have also been coming together.We really, really like what we see coming down the pipe, and we think you will too.
