Apple buys second ARM chip design firm, Intrinsity
Two years ago, Apple acquired a major developer of ARM processors/system-on-a-chip (SoC) designs, PA Semiconductor. This led directly to the production of Apple's first 100% in-house CPU, the A4 which is at the heart of iPad. Now, it appears that Infinite Loop has made another acquisition to bolster its ARM chip development efforts: Intrinsity, formerly a close partner of major ARM manufacturer Samsung. What does this mean for the future of Apple's iDevice hardware?

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.

September 9th Apple Event preview
As we prepare for Rumors' Live Coverage of tomorrow's "music-centric" Apple Event beginning just before 10AM PT/1PM ET, our backlog of summer dirt reported by the usual suspects has revealed some unique insights into what we might see there. The technical and logistical foundations are there for fulfilling virtually every single significant rumor attached to the Event; the big question is, will other factors see some of the big ones -- such as a Macbook Touch/iTablet -- pushed back? Read on for the details....

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.

Mac OS X 10.5.7 build 9J56 seeded to developers with Bluetooth 3.0
Despite the previous build of Mac OS X 10.5.7 code-name "Juno" appearing nearly ready for release within days (it's now been over a week), Apple has delivered a new seed -- build 9J56 -- to developers, and it looks like a little bit of work still remains before we'll see 10.5.7 in Software Update. Changelog from Apple's seed notes follows after the jump.

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?
