Telefonica Pulling iPhone 4 Stock Ahead of iPhone 5 Launch [ 16-08-2011 18:10 ]

Author: Serge Novikov Source: Engadget Translation by: Paul Smith

iPhone 5 rumours are ten a penny these days, but the one most of the chatter has been centred around is the launch date. Some of the rumours are saying September whilst others are saying October and both sides have seen 'evidence' crop up to support them. Well today Engadget reported that an anonymous tipster has added some fuel to the September fire.

According to the tipster Telefonica will begin to scale back their stock of the iPhone starting on 22nd August. The process will continue until 12th September with the source claiming that "... will of course prepare us for the launch of a new smartphone". That would seem to indicate the launch of the next generation iPhone shortly afterwards, placing the launch some time in the second half of September, which is the time period consistently given by the September rumour mill.

Has Apple Doctored Court Documents In Fight With Samsung? [ 16-08-2011 16:49 ]

Author: Ivanov Konstantin Source: IntoMobile Translation by: Paul Smith

Apple's victory in getting Samsung's Galaxy Tab banned from sale in the European Union and Australia whilst court proceedings continue is illiciting some controversey. Apple supplied documents to its European lawyers, which were given to the judge in the case to help form his judgement. It is those images that are causing the broohaha.

The iPad, both 1 and 2, have a screen, which supports an aspect ratio of 4:3. The Galaxy Tab on the other hand features a screen with an aspect ratio of 16;10. Now where the controversey lies is in the fact that the images contained in Apple's document show the iPad has having pretty much the same dimensions as the Galaxy Tab. The obvious inference here is that the image has been doctored to make the two devices seem more alike than they really are. Check out the image below and compare the sizes.
