Apple co-founder Steve Jobs died Wednesday, October 5th at age 56. He was a visionary, innovator, and he knew what we wanted before we did. The Macintosh changed the PC world, the iPhone reinvented the phone, iTunes for purchasing our online music, iPad changed tablets, and iPod brought us thousands of songs to our pocket. It is hard thinking about that will never see another Steve Jobs keynote. I used to shut everything else out on an Apple event day. I mean, where will Apple go from here? Without Steve Jobs before, Apple was in trouble but I think he may have put people in place like Tim Cook that may be able to carry Apple for years to come. However, Apple and the world will not be the same without Steve Jobs.
What do you think about the iPhone 5. Do you think it’ll be awesome, great or disappointing. The iPhone 5 is something a lot of people have been looking forward to. I myself, have been waiting on their announcement and that was finally official today. What will the announcement hold to be true? Will they release the iPhone 5 on more carriers or will they keep it just with AT&T and Verizon? I think it would be beneficial to Apple to release it on different carriers. One thing, that I believe is that a lot of the bandwidth hogs will like is Sprint. Sprint has announced that it is not getting rid of its unlimited data. This gives anyone a chance to get an iPhone with unlimited data, when now they cannot.
I wonder why Verizon and AT&T got rid of their unlimited data? It looks as if Sprint is trying to capitalize on its unlimited data plans to get the most money off the new iPhone if it comes to Sprint. Which would help them out a lot. If Sprint, does see a lot of success with the new iPhone, because of the unlimited data, will Verizon and AT&T bring back unlimited data? Or will Sprint in a couple of months after getting the iPhone discontinue its unlimited data. I almost believe the latter.
One of the reasons that android is so successful is because it is on every carrier, including prepaid. I believe if iPhone is going to be able to dominate this space that it also needs to be on every carrier, including prepaid. I almost believe that Apple may talk about releasing the new iPhone 4S as a prepaid phone. This would be huge news. I realize that they have to make it with cheaper parts so they could be successful in the prepaid market. Not many people would buy a prepaid iPhone at $600.
What will the iPhone 5 be like? Will it have a 4 inch screen? Will it have an eight megapixel camera? Those questions and more will be answered on October 4. I like many others will be awaiting Apple’s response to all of our questions on that day. What do you think? Respond in the comments below!
It is about time! We’ve posted about rumors that it was going to be on October 4th but now its official. We don’t know if its going to be about the iPhone 5, 4S or something else but we will find out soon!
There is no official announcement of this but All Things Digital is saying that the Apple Media event where the iPhone will be announcement is to be held on October 4th. Steve Jobs will not be taking part of the event as it will be lead by Tim Cook new CEO of Apple Inc. This would be the event where the new iPhone 5, iPhone 4S, and possibly that prepaid iPhone would be announced.
HTC is suing Apple for patent infringement. They claim that Apple is infringing on several patents that are used for iPods, iPads, iPhones, and the iMacs. HTC hasn’t released any specifics on why exactly the patents are that Apple is infringing on but we shall find out soon enough. Oh, and HTC wants to ban all these products for the entire USA. I just DON’T think that will happen.
Introducing the Virgin Mobile Peel with 3G access. You just dock your iPod Touch and you can access 3G all under one plan. The VM Peel will set you back $99.99 and will have a plan for $20 a month for 500MB of data. This turns out to be 25 hours of web browsing or 50,000 emails. Sounds like an alright deal right?
