I want an iPhone so badly but making myself wait until the new one is released!

I know it's annoying. I'm with T-Mobile right now and a few months ago bought the G1 just cause every other phone T-Mobile has sucks, when this new iPhone comes out I'll be jumping over to AT&T (I'm on a shared plan, so I'm not really breaking a contract just dropping a line).

i doubt jobs will be involved at all...

after hearing some more uhh... "information" I've changed my mind. He may not be back for the WWDC, but I'm now pretty sure he'll be back this monthish.

As far as I know, or at least how ATT/Sprint does it, each line on a plan has a contract. If you get a family plan with 4 lines, you sign 4 contracts. Each contract has it's own ~$175 cancelation fee. Again, that's how ATT/Sprint does it, but don't be surprised...

Yup. :yes:

How gorgeous does this look? Me want. :D

<snip>

For a mock up, that looks stunning. Honestly, if the new iPhone is like that?! Thinner & a slight design change, then I think it will make me get it over the N97.

I just want this new iPhone to be different to the 3G, I dont want a re-hash. The 3G wasnt overly different to the 2G and this is why I just kept my 2G. Come on Apple, I love you guys but I need something different looking to make me get this new one!!!

^ That is quite simply, stunning!

Is it just me or does that appear to have a bigger screen? I have no doubt that Apple wouldn't have designed anything remotely that gorgeous, plus they may be a little concerned with the "Zune HD" style home button.

That does look outstanding though.

*looks at iPhone 3G .... looks back at mockup .... hmmmm (<- Homer Simpson Style).*

I love that mockup. I would have made the top speaker (I dont know the name of that part in english) more like the current iPhone.

Could it be possible that it may actually be the real thing? I've seen a couple image of the 'mock-up' and they all seem to have that kind of rubbery smooth back to it. If its looks half as good as the mock-up I'd get it. Though, I am hoping for something totally different from Apple, with the iPhone video link thing and the image of the mock-up it seems unlikely.

"[distance] ahead" still works.

Yeah, when I read about "Light-years" I asked myself the question, but when we think about it, there's an expression in English that says "this company is miles ahead of his competitor", so the distance works perfectly.

That iPhone mockup... I saw it on HardMac (Macbidouille in fact) and god that it looks awesome! The matte plastic would be perfect, and we don't need that glowing logo in the back, as it would seem like a screaming "STEAL ME" logo more than anything... I know it wouldn't consume any energy at all because it's lit by the screen, but it'd make iPhone users look like attention ######.

So when is the keynote? Monday or Tuesday? Edit: Monday. Should have read the first post. And it kicks in at 1PM EST if it follows the tradition?

That mock up is tasty but it wont happen. They wont make the screen that large without upping the resolution and that would cause an issue for all the app creators out there when there sweet looking apps end up with a nasty black border.

Still would be nice to see a proper 16:9 ratio screen

Is this the new iPhone?

Sure, it's Palm's big day, but that doesn't mean the Apple rumor mill is taking a break -- check out this pic of what might be the new iPhone set to drop on Monday. Yep, that's a matte black casing with no chrome border, a what looks to be a front-facing camera, and iPhone OS 3.0, so it certainly lines up with what we've heard -- but it wouldn't exactly take a Photoshop master to do this one up either. One more pic at the read link -- anyone believing this?

Update: Nowhere Else seems to be down at the moment, so we've stuck the other pic after the break.

    • Valve finally confirms Steam Machine prices, starts at $1049 for 512GB option

      What about HL3?

      But building your own.. what? You can't build anything like the Steam Machine yourself. Even trying to get close costs a good deal more. Even just the CPU cooler in their price comparison is as big as the entire Steam Machine. If you want a regular gaming PC, then by all means, build that. If you want a a small console-like PC for the living room that is good for gaming, I'm not sure what else is a better deal. In the GN review, they only mentioned a small form factor Dell, which is like twice the size and hundreds of dollars more expensive.

      Those are some popular multiplayer games. But hardly "all". Just those that don't work on Linux currently due to specific anti-cheat implementations. I think it's also fair to point out the literally thousands of games that don't work on the PS5. And it's not locked at 1080p. That's the default, which you can change.
    • Ubuntu Livepatch arrives on Arm64 to eliminate system reboots for kernel updates

      By zikalify · Posted

      Ubuntu Livepatch arrives on Arm64 to eliminate system reboots for kernel updates by Paul Hill Canonical has just announced that its Livepatch service now supports computers with Arm64 processors. For those who are not familiar, Livepatch allows users to apply important kernel updates without any service interruption or rebooting. While home users will benefit from this, it’s even more important for critical machines that absolutely should not be going offline at all. The feature is available as part of Ubuntu Core 26 for Arm64 and Ubuntu Core 20 and onwards for AMD64. According to Canonical, this will improve the security of systems that aren’t security-maintained daily or weekly, and it helps organizations work towards Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) compliance. If you are familiar with Ubuntu, you probably know that most packages can be updated without having to restart the system. There is one big exception to this, and that’s the kernel; it typically requires you to reload the system to boot into the new kernel. With Livepatch, Canonical has done something so that you don’t need to restart to begin using the new kernel. Aside from Ubuntu Core 26, users with Arm64 chips running Ubuntu 26.04 LTS can also use Livepatch. If you want to learn more about Livepatch, check out its product page. There, you can also find a button to join Ubuntu Pro (it’s free for several home devices) so that you can enable Livepatch. By linking your computer to Ubuntu Pro, you will also extend the life of your Ubuntu install from five years to ten years. If you are running Ubuntu, let us know in the comments if you have been looking forward to this feature on your ARM-based computer. If you’ve had a compatible AMD64 machine for a while and never used this feature, let us know why in the comments!
