Going by the latest reports, it looks unlikely that there will be a new iPhone this Fall. Not even a 'baby' iPhone, a cheaper version for the emerging markets! Gadget lovers can’t wait to know the latest titbit about the possible iPhone launch. Some say they want to see the iPhone 5 on the store so that they can explore the features of iPhone 6.

No one seems to know whether or not there will be an iPhone 4S or an iPhone 5, or both, introduced as the next-generation iPhone.

Apple is facing a lot of pressure this year with Android beating the technology giant in several categories, including the top smartphone spot. However, Apple isn't one to give up easily and expectations are high that with iPhone 5 release Apple will regain its top position in a highly competitive smartphone jungle.

Consumers have been whipped into a frenzy after a slew of analysts commented on the immanent arrival of the iPhone 5 earlier this week, but the latest prediction could make the Apple's phone family within broader reach.

An analyst says Apple may offer free iPhones with AT&T soon. There's a catch, though - a two-year service contract.

The latest rumors have reported Apple to offer its iPhone 3GS for free as it makes way for the launch of their upcoming iPhone 5. The iPhone 3GS will be given out for $0 if customers sign onto a two year contract. Consumers waiting for the iPhone 5 may not be an ideal target, but those who fall in the mid or low-range smartphone buyers market will find the offer enticing.

Apple will reportedly offer the iPhone 3GS for free with a two-year contract when the next generation of iPhone becomes available this fall.

After all the buzz about the iPhone 5 debating over an August or September launch date in 2011, the fifth-generation iPhone along with the cheaper progeny will not launch until 2012, according to Wall Street.

George Hotz, a 21-year-old hacker known as Geohot online, has been hired by Facebook.

Apple Inc. is expected to cut iPhone 3GS price to $0 (on contract, $399 unsubsidized) in conjunction with iPhone 5 launch, which is expected in September.

As the rumors swirl surrounding the iPhone 5's release date, it is worth asking whether one should buy an Android superphone or wait for the elusive iPhone 5. After all, most of the iPhone 5's rumored features are already available in a spate of Android devices.

Not a single day passes without a new rumor regarding the launch date of Apple's next generation iPhone. Apple fans are not exactly pleased at the long silence from Apple, but apparently the company is only safe-guarding its business interests. Since the sales of their existing iPhone isn't slowing down, it is logical to think that Apple would want to wait and get the most out of iPhone 4.

This isn't the first time Facebook has hired an infamous hacker: In fact, there are several teenaged hackers who got rewarded for their cyber-crime instead of being imprisoned.

According to the latest report issued by Symantec on comparing the security level of iOS and Android operating system, iOS is less vulnerable than Android.

Information on the next Apple iPhone is still dubious and only rumors are growing as to when it is going to be released, what is it going to be called and what features will it boast of.

The exploding popularity of Android has been a force to reckon. Google reported that its daily activations have reached 500,000. Google's vice president of mobile tweeted that this rate is increasing 4.4% each week. The increased number of smartphones that are running the Android OS have placed Google at the top of the Smartphone market over its reigning competitor the Apple iPhone.

Apple is poised to launch two new iPhones, a cheaper iPhone 4S and the all new iPhone 5 in rather quick succession, if industry buzz is to be believed. The theory suggests that Apple as a company is at an inflection point with regard to its smartphone strategy and is willing to take daring new steps in the backdrop of a surging challenge from Android OS-based devices.

Tuesday, T-Mobile USA unveiled their latest smartphone MyTouch 4G Slide, which will sport high-end camera features, touted as the most advanced among of all smartphones, undoubtedly challenging the much-rumored but yet-to-come iPhone 5.

The craze to own an Apple product in China gathered steam this week as one Chinese girl allegedly has offered to sell her virginity in exchange for an iPhone 4, barely days after news surfaced that a Chinese boy sold his kidney in exchange for an iPad 2.

Symantec issues white paper stating that Apple's iPhone and Google's Android have major security flaws. Google's Android cited as malware target.

Android users may now rejoice as T-Mobile unveiled their latest and greatest smartphone the myTouch 4G Slide with advanced camera features to rival Apple's iPhone 4. An enhanced version of the myTouch 3G Slide can be seen in the new myTouch 4G camera hardware and software, which is considered an iPhone 4 camera killer.
