iPhone 5 Rumor Roundup | iPhone Atlas | CNet Reviews

iPhone4_photo#in #mobile #iphone5 #iphone #apple #cnet According to Kent German and Lynn La 2012, “Editors’ note: This roundup was originally published June 24, 2011, and is updated regularly.

After unveiling a marginally improved iPhone 4S in 2011 instead of a radically different iPhone 5, Apple has returned to its development labs to cook up (no pun intended) the next iteration of its popular phone. In 2012, we’re fairly certain that the real iPhone 5 will roll out of Apple’s gates and that the device should be a bigger leap forward than the 4S was.

That’s why after taking some time off at the end of last year, we’ve resurrected CNET’s iPhone 5 rumor roundup to cover the new tidbits from 2012. So join us again in watching the rumor mill churn. We’ll add to it until we get the real thing, and please let us know if we’ve left any gossip out.” Read more > http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-19512_7-20073431-233/iphone-5-rumor-roundup/?tag=hotTopicsBody.1

Sprint Says May Use Debt to Fund Clearwire | Reuters

#mobile #telecom #sprint #clearwire #reuters According to Sinead Carew 2011, “Sprint Nextel Corp (S.N) plans to offer debt in a private transaction and could use the proceeds to fund Clearwire Corp (CLWR.O).

Sprint said it could also use the proceeds to pay back existing debt or fund its network upgrade. But that didn’t stop Clearwire shares from rising 23 percent, because Sprint had previously refused to discuss whether it would help Clearwire’s current efforts to raise cash.” Read more > http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/11/04/us-sprint-clearwire-idUSTRE7A33Q420111104

Blackberry Playbook landing as soon as February? | @CNet #business #tech

According to #DonReisinger 2010, “Research In Motion may be planning to release the @BlackBerry PlayBook #tablet as early as late February. Edel Ebbs, @RIM’s vice president of investor relations, said yesterday in its fiscal third-quarter earnings call that “no #PlayBook revenues [are] included in our Q4 guidance, and we expect the first revenue impact from PlayBook to be in RIM’s first quarter.” His quote comes from a call transcript published on SeekingAlpha.” Article Continued > http://news.cnet.com/8301-13506_3-20025972-17.html?tag=mncol;title #donreisinger #smartphone #mobile #wifi #tablets #playbook #consulting #business #tech @CNet @Callistecomm

Google’s Nexus S goes on sale with “half-assed” strategy | @Wired #business #android #mobile #smartphones

According to #BrianXChen 2010, “@Google’s new #NexusS #smartphone went on sale Thursday at #BestBuy stores for 200 bucks with a two-year contract, a move with poor timing, says an analyst.

That’s because by this time of year, the holiday season, retailers and competing manufacturers have already slashed prices for relatively new Android smartphones to between $0 and $50. (The #HTC Droid Incredible, for example, is free with a two-year plan at Best Buy.)” Article Continued > http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2010/12/google-nexus-s-2/ #business #mobile #android #htcdroidincredible #nexuss #consulting @Google @HTC @Callistecomm

Pure Android + delightful hardware = great dance partners | @Wired #business #android #mobile #smartphones

According to #MathewHonan 201o, “Let’s get this out of the way first: The #NexusS is an excellent phone. It’s not as nice as an #iPhone4 as a complete package. But it’s a great phone on its own merits, and it does even do many things better (connectivity, media-sharing, background processes and notifications). You very well may prefer this to an #iPhone, but it is not an iPhone. If you want an iPhone; you should buy an iPhone. Phew. Now g’head flame away.” Article Continued > http://www.wired.com/reviews/2010/12/nexus_s/ #mobile #smartphones #android #consulting @Google @Apple @Callistecomm

According to Ramona Edison 2010, “Motorola Nails Smart Sequel With Droid 2 – If anything, the makeover from Droid to Droid 2 is more of a brow wax than a face lift, which judging by the success of the original version, and the ghastly results of many cosmetic surgery fiascoes, is probably a good thing.” Continued here > http://www.wired.com/reviews/product/pr_droid2 #motorola #wired #droid #mobile #smartphone #consulting @callistecomm
