BREAKING: Apple Hits 1 Million iPhone 4S Pre-Orders On Day 1
Here is some mind blowing news coming out of Cupertino, it seems as though Apple has released a statement saying that they had over 1 million pre-orders on the first day of pre-orders (which was on the 7th). That is insane! It has crushed the previous pre-order number king that had 600,000 (on day 1)! The last record was set by… the iPhone 4.
Phil Schiller was quoted as saying:
“We are blown away with the incredible customer response to the iPhone 4S. The first day pre-orders for iPhone 4S have been the most for any new product that Apple has ever launched and we are thrilled that customers love the iPhone 4S as much as we do.”
Now, if you haven’t pre-ordered your iPhone 4S yet, Apple, AT&T, and Verizon have halted pre-orders, now, we can confirm that Radio Shack is still taking pre-orders, but there is no information regarding for how much longer.
So there you go guys! If you couldn’t get on the iPhone 4S pre-order bandwagon, iPhone 4S will be available at stores nationwide on October 14th.

BREAKING: Microsoft Kills Zune, Apple To Follow Suit?
Some breaking news hitting us moments ago, it seems as though Microsoft has officially killed the Zune. Why is this so relevant? Oh, no reason…. except that we expect that Apple will kill the iPod later today.
As we reported earlier today, we are expecting Apple to axe the iPod Classic and the iPod Shuffle in favor of iOS devices. This marks the end of an era in which both companies (competed?) to see who had the best music players, Apple won in the end with a major marketshare lead that topped at nearly 80% (completely unheard of).
Microsoft said these final words about it’s Zune:
“Windows Phone will be the focus of our mobile music and video strategy, we will no longer be producing Zune players.”
R.I.P Zune and R.I.P iPod. The end of an era.

WTF: Sprint Payed Apple $20 Billion For iPhone 5 Exclusive?
What the FRENCH TOAST?! The rumor mill is churning at full speed as some very shocking news is hitting the internet. Apparently, the Wall Street Journal and BGR has said that Sprint has paid Apple $20 Billion to have the iPhone 5 exclusively until Q2 2012. This is incredible.
None of our Sprint sources ever mentioned anything like this, so the only way to truly know is to see tomorrow. We were completely shocked to hear this rumor and were not expecting the iPhone 5 to be an exclusive.
Now, this could all be a bunch of bull crap, but who knows? For all we know, Sprint may well be “betting the company” on the iPhone. Apple could be interested since they are the only ones with unlimited data and are willing to pay for 30 million iPhones regardless of Sprint selling them or not.
This is what BGR had to say:
I have been going back and forth for weeks with one of my incredibly solid industry contacts on a piece of information that I couldn’t really process at first – information that is so unbelievable, even from a source this solid, that I couldn’t report it. With this new WSJ report on an Apple/Sprint deal, however, it doesn’t look so crazy.
I have been told that Sprint will be getting the iPhone 5 – yes the real iPhone 5, not the iPhone 4S – as an exclusive. And it will be a 4G WiMAX device. AT&T and Verizon would launch the iPhone 4S and get the iPhone 5 some time in the first quarter of next year as an LTE device. Globally, the iPhone 5 might be available as a 4G HSPA+ device.
BGR also goes on to lay down the details of the hardware Apple will announce tomorrow:
The iPhone 4S Apple will introduce tomorrow will feature the following:
- A low voltage Apple A5 CPU (it won’t be the same as the iPad 2 chip, clock for clock).
- Updated front and back camera sensors. FaceTime HD in the front, 8-megapixel 1080p HD video recording in the back.
- Multiband 3G Qualcomm chipset — North American & International GSM/UMTS/HSPA bands for AT&T and Global carriers, North American CDMA & International GSM/UMTS/HSPA bands for Verizon and Sprint.
- NFC support.
- Metal or “premium” plastic on the back case.
And here is what my source said about the iPhone 5 that will launch as a Sprint exclusive:
- Faster CPU.
- Larger 4-inch screen, similar to LG’s NOVA display but with a higher resolution.
- 1GB of RAM.
- Slightly larger design overall, but thinner and with a larger battery.
- 32GB of storage.
- iPhone 5 exclusive software and APIs (Assistant).
- Dedicated Assistant button, possibly integrated with the new home button, “think gestures or a two-stage button like a camera shutter key).

Rumor Round-Up: What To Expect From Apple.
Hey guys, here we are again, on the midst of an Apple keynote event. This is probably one of the most anticipated events in a long time coming from Apple, a new CEO, new phone, new OS, new carrier partner, etc. So, I’m here to give you all a general round-up of all of the announcements you should expect this week.
The first, and most important, is the next generation of iPhone(s?). Our sources have been saying that we will be getting 2 new iPhones. We have quite a bit of detail on them and even some stuff that we are simply not allowed to share. Basically, there will be an iPhone 4S that will retail for $99 on a 2 year contract, this is just an upgraded iPhone 4 that also solves antennagate and carry an A5 chip and nothing else.
Also, there will be an iPhone 5, now, it’s possible that this new iPhone will not be getting a redesign but our sources are saying it won’t be a radical change until atleast 2012′s product cycle. This new iPhone will get a bigger battery, smaller board, fixes antennagate, A5, 1GB RAM, and it will RETAIN IT’S 3.5″ SCREEN! We can’t stress this enough, all of our sources have stated that “there is no screen bound for an iOS device with a screen size that lies between a 3.5″ and a 9.7″ capacitive touchscreen display.”
We expect a launch on either October 14th or October 21st. Oh, and before I forget, the iPhone is indeed headed to Sprint.
Next up, iOS 5. Again, this is a no brainer. We expect to hear about iOS 5 as well as a few (as of yet) unannounced major tentpole features and we expect a Gold Master to be released shortly after the keynote to developers as well as a public launch date. We expect this date to be either October 14th or October 17th.
Also, we should expect to see Apple’s new “Assistant” feature to be announced. Now, this goes with iOS 5 being announced and everything, but we have yet to hear a credible source say that the iPhone 4 won’t run Assistant. Why? The explanation I have is that this is why there hasn’t been an iOS 5 beta in over 4 weeks. Apple has reached the limit and can no longer publicly release versions of iOS 5 that don’t contain pieces of Assistant.
Also, another feature that will be announced will be 360 degree panoramic photography. We are not sure if this will be available for the iPhone 4 as well as the iPhone 4S & iPhone 5, but it will be a feature in iOS 5.
Oh, and to go with this iPhone announcement, we expect a small mention of a next-generation iPod touch that will carry an A5 chip, 512MB of RAM and will come in black or white.
Next up, iCloud. This is another huge thing that will launch. We expect this to launch on the day that iOS 5 launches to the public. Us developers have been using iCloud for months now and I can personally tell you that it is really an incredible thing that you don’t ever think about. This is what makes it “magical”. You don’t think about it and it’s a no-brainer, just as Apple intended.
iTunes Match will also make an appearance, now, we are unsure about this one. We are unsure if iTunes Match will be launched at the same time as iOS 5/iCloud judging by the beta that we’ve been using. It just doesn’t feel like it will be done in time for an October 14th/17th launch. It works great but the matching algorithm is still far from feeling complete. Possibly an early November launch, but we hope Apple launches at the same time as everything else.
Next Up, Mac OS X 10.7.2, this is a major update to Lion. I’ve been running this for months now (with the latest beta being released 48 hours ago) and it’s extremely well done. This bring iCloud to the Mac and it fixes A TON of Lion bugs and boosts performance. Even the first 10.7.2 beta was better than the public 10.7/10.7.1 release at the time.
Finally, we expect the end of an era, in more ways than 1. The first is obvious, Tim Cook is Apple’s CEO, this is the first test of his public persona. This event is extremely important to Apple, Tim Cook, the entire Apple executive team, and Steve Jobs. They need to really sell this and reassure investors and the public that Apple can still be Apple with Steve Jobs out of the picture.
Also, we expect the iPod brand to come to an end. Apple will finally kill the iPod starting on October 4th. The iPod Classic, the iPod Shuffle, and the click wheel will be phased out as well as the iPod brand will be stripped away from iOS 5. We expect the iPod touch to keep it’s iPod name but for how much longer, we’re not sure. Also, the iPod Nano is expected to stay. So with Steve Jobs goes the iconic iPod that saved Apple and launched them into the public eye once again.
BREAKING NEWS
We have some breaking news, it is also said that Sprint will be getting the iPhone 5 exclusively though 2011. WSJ & BGR have said that the Sprint iPhone 5 will be an all new redesign with a 4″ screen, NFC, iPad 2-like metal back, A5, Assistant, and 1GB of RAM.
