Get a new 16GB iPhone 3GS for $97
Here's a pickle: do you jump on a killer iPhone deal right now or wait for the new model that's coming next month?
I mean, it's no secret that Apple will likely unveil the iPhone 4G at the Worldwide Developers Conference, which kicks off June 7. It might be weeks or months after that before it's actually available, but it's definitely coming. Read more...

4.5 million iPhone 4Gs in 24 days?
DigiTimes, a Taipei-based tech daily with a rich supply of anonymous tipsters among Apple's (AAPL) Pacific Rim suppliers, issued a detailed report Monday about the next generation iPhone that actually quotes a source by name.
This is presumably the same fourth-generation iPhone -- or one much like it -- that was left in a Redwood City bar four weeks ago. Read more...

Adobe Aims Ad Campaign, Open Letter at Apple
Montagues versus Capulets? Old school. Hatfields and McCoys? So passé. Yankees versus Red Sox? It's lost its edge. But the conflict between Apple and Adobe over the future of the Web is just reaching its peak. On Thursday, Adobe made its latest border skirmish with a new ad campaign and an open letter.
The eye-catching ads in question display the message "We [heart] Apple" and the Adobe logo, then change to the following message: Read more...

AT&T Maintains Its Grip on the iPhone Until 2012
Looks like you can toss your Verizon iPhone dreams in the garbage for now, as AT&T -- the network with the lowest customer satisfaction rate and most dropped calls -- holds an exclusive on the iPhone until 2012. Apparently everything we thought about the contract's expiration was wrong.
Before the original iPhone launched in 2007, USA Today reported that Apple and AT&T has entered a five-year carrier exclusivity agreement. That report was never verified, though, and the terms of the agreement between Apple and AT&T have long been the subject of debate. Until this week, that is, when Engadget poured through documents and found that, in 2008, a class-action lawsuit alleging monopoly was filed against Apple. Apple's response confirmed the five-year deal: "[T]here was widespread disclosure of [AT&T's] five-year exclusivity and no suggestion by Apple or anyone else that iPhones would become unlocked after two years."

WiGig publishes 7 Gbps wireless home networking spec
xactly one year after making its public debut, the Wireless Gigabit Alliance (also known as WiGig) has published its spec for the unlicensed 60 GHz band, which it is pushing as a new, faster standard for home networking.
The 60 GHz WiGig spec is not meant to be a replacement to current 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wi-Fi technologies, but instead to act as a complement that is targeted to devices requiring gigabit speeds, like HD video. While the new spec supports data transfer rates up to 7 Gbps, the high absorption of 60 GHz waves make it suitable only for short-distance communication. Read more...
