MacRumors is reporting that they’ve received a screenshot, which their source claims is from a Best Buy inventory database, which provides some interesting information.
As you can see from the screenshot (after the break), Best Buy’s inventory database has entries for 16 GB and 32 GB white iPhone 4 models, which has in-stock dates of February 27th.
If you’re hoping that Apple will add support for 4G network in the fifth generation iPhone, which is expected to be released in June then we have some disappointing news for you.
AT&T CEO Ralph de la Vega revealed in a Keynote address at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas that it plans to offer LTE devices in 2012. Interestingly, AT&T also included Apple in the list of manufacturers that will offer LTE devices on its network indicating that iPhone may support 4G network only in 2012 (probably with the launch of the sixth generation iPhone).
Apple has been delaying the launch of the white iPhone 4, which was supposed to arrive along with the black iPhone 4 back in June.
In the last official update from Apple, the white iPhone 4 launch has been delayed till “Spring 2011”.
We have also heard speculations that Apple might decide to scrap the white iPhone altogether because by the time it arrives, we would be inching closer towards the arrival of the next generation iPhone – making the entire effort to bring the white iPhone – pointless.
Steve Jobs has just announced at today’s Back to Mac event that FaceTime – Apple’s video calling feature that was first introduced on iPhone 4 and later on the new iPod Touch 4G will be available for Mac users.
This means that now Mac users will be able to make FaceTime video calls to iPhone 4, iPod Touch 4G and other Mac users.
Folks at RichyRich have published photos, which they claim are photos of a prototype N92 iPhone.
Back in August, John Gruber of Daring Fireball who has a good track record with Apple rumors had revealed that the CDMA-based iPhone codenamed N92 was at EVT (engineering verification test) that’s one step below DVT, which is one step below production.
When Apple launched iPhone 4, we were all told that it would be arriving in two color options – Black and White. While the black iPhone has been launched and is now fairly common, there is no sign of the white iPhone, which was supposed to be here by the second half of July initially.
Back then, Apple had issued the following statement:
"White models of Apple's new iPhone 4 have proven more challenging to manufacture than expected, and as a result they will not be available until the second half of July. The availability of the more popular iPhone 4 black models is not affected."
Apple had announced on September 10th that it will be discontinuing its free iPhone 4 case program after September 30th.
Not surprisingly, the iPhone 4 bumper cases that were unavailable in Apple's Retail and Online stores during the program, first made their silent comeback to the retail stores on October 1.
Macrumors has just reported that they're also available on Apple's Online store.
If you have been using the Netflix app on your iPhone or iPod Touch and eagerly waiting for the video out feature like the iPad, well, your prayers have been answered.
The NetFlix iPhone app has received an update last night that will allow users to stream Netflix content from your iPhone to their TV – officially.
Taiwanese website, DigiTimes has revealed some interesting details about Apple’s next generation iOS devices.
According to their source, Apple will be releasing the next generation iPad in the first quarter of 2011, launching a CDMA-based iPhone at CES in January 2011 and introduce a new Apple TV based on AMD’s Fusion platform in early 2011.
Mark Papermaster, the senior Vice President who was in charge of iPhone’s hardware has left the company.
It is not clear if Apple won't confirm whether Papermaster has left the company due to the widely publicized iPhone 4 antenna issue, which ultimately resulted in Apple giving away free cases for all iPhone 4 customers.
But as the head of iPhone’s hardware, it looks like he is the fall guy for this situation.
