iPhone 5 Setting Records for AT&T

It looks like the iPhone 5 is selling like crazy!  AT&T says the iPhone 5 is the fastest selling iPhone they've offered and the iPhone is setting new sales records.  That's just at AT&T.  There's still the other carriers and Apple.  Sounds like good news for iPhone buyers and Apple shareholders.

iPhone 5 Available for Preorder!

The iPhone 5 is now available for preorder!  You can preorder from Apple or from one of the carriers.  Along with that, shipping estimates are showing 2 weeks in the Apple Store.  Does that mean the iPhone is just selling that quickly?  We will probably find out how iPhone 5 sales did after the weekend.  My only disappointment is that I haven't seen where you can purchase an unlocked version of the iPhone 5.  That may come later.  If you're frugal, you may want to crunch the numbers.  It may be cheaper in the long run to pay in advance.  Just an idea.  Either way, I hope you enjoy your iPhone 5 when you get one.

Apple May Compete With Pandora?

Could Apple be working on a Pandora like music service?  That is the topic of this rumor.  Honestly, I'm a little excited about the possibility.  I enjoy Pandora and I think Apple needs to rethink music delivery.  I think iTunes works...for the most part, but Pandora has created a new way for us to enjoy music.  I'm more into streaming media (music or video) as long as the internet provider can support it.  I hate when streaming has interruptions for buffering.  It can ruin a song or video.  Feel free to chime in.

Apple Television Plans Stalled?

For a while, we have heard rumors of Apple's television plans...either strengthening the AppleTV or creating an Apple TV set.  The problem that always seems to surface is content.  How does Apple acquire more content?  Are content owners willing to part with so much control over their content?  Once again, it seems negotiations have halted.  Honestly, I think I would be content with HULU+, the ability to play my own content, browser capability, and an Apple subscription service that would give me unlimited streaming of movies and TV shows...plus Siri.  With that being said, they would need access to the shows I watch.  I'm not sure if Apple and Hulu do.  Maybe I'm asking for a lot.  Your thoughts?

Goodbye iPhone 3GS?

The latest rumor is that Apple may drop the iPhone 3GS and add the iPhone 4S with 8 GB storage capacity.  With this, it's possible that the iPhone 4 could move into the "free with contract" category.  Wow!  That's shocking!  I purchased my iPhone 4 without a contract years ago and I remember how much it cost.  Now it could potentially be free with a contract.

Is Apple the Only Supplier of New Dock Connector?

The latest story is that Apple will be the only supplier of the new dock connector...at least initially.  Change is always difficult and Apple has to get a large group to accept the new connector.  Fortunately, this isn't a large change in my opinion.  More details and pricing are in the article.
