Citing "a reliable source," Boy Genius Reports says that the next iPhone will sport a major physical update of some sort. (I'm holding out for a rotary dial and cord.) BGR also says that Apple "may" unveil the new iPhone at special August event. And it may or may not unveil new iPods then, too. Or the iPhone, and/or the theoretical new iPods, will instead be announced in September. Or Apple will announce in July that it's getting out of the iPhone-making business, and will instead work on creating Windows 7 apps. I mean, if we're just guessing, let's make it interesting, right?

(The Jerusalem Post)

Can you imagine that? Israel called up Apple on the phone. The nation of Israel. One assumes that Israel doesn't rely on AT&T's network. Actually, it was Israel's Public Diplomacy and Diaspora Minister Yuli Edelstein, not the whole nation, who reached out to Apple and Edelstein in fact wrote a letter. The app that Israel's asking Apple to remove allegedly provides information about violent anti-Israel protests. Whether Apple will heed Israel's request and bid the app a formal (the "goodbye" version, not the "hello" version) remains to be seen.
