Reader Q&A: What are Apple prototypes like?
From time to time, we select a few reader questions to answer as best we can, and today's comes from Kyle: "On your site, you often mention prototypes of Apple devices. I'm kind of curious how Apple works their prototype process. What do the prototype devices look like in the semi-finished state? Do they look like pieces of hardware slapped together by a sloppy DIYer or like the polished devices that we know Apple is famous for?"Read on for the answer

Multitasking for 3rd-Party Apps?
One of the hottest topics on the grapevine this weekend has been an emerging rumor based on multiple leaks (including more than one of our own sources) regarding the ability of 3rd-party apps being able to run in the background -- rather than just displaying "background notifications" as announced for iPhone OS 3.0 this summer on all supported iDevices. New reports from our sources have shed much more light on this and how it relates to the evolution of iDevice hardware.

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.

As many readers have noticed, Rumors has not been updated in quite some time. That, and a lot of other things, are about to change. Expect a few posts over the weekend with details, a look at the future of the site....and with the new week, lots of very hot dirt on the way from our considerable backlog! Stay tuned -- the best is yet to come....
