  The ramp up to the next iPhone always appears to draw more near more quickly each year.  Although noone that we know has had the pleasure of laying eyes on the next iPhone, Pandev has seen the likes of it via an iPhone identifier never before gazed upon.  For example, when the iPhone 3GS was being field tested an identifier of iPhone2,1 was seen in October 2008.  This time Pandev has seen the iPhone3,1 identifier pop up since November of 2009.  Pinchmedia provides ana

Macworld 2010 Announced For Feb. 9-13

 

  The show will continue despite the absence of Apple’s presence.  Just a couple of months ago yielded our last view as Macworld as the yearly announcement preference of the Apple brand.  The 2010 expo will continue despite the rumors of it fading away into nothing.  The sessions should be about the same and although we can no longer count on Macworld for new products, you can bet Apple will have some things to show sometime around that time frame.

Apple Now Showing Off HTML5 and CSS3

 

  Safari 4 has been out for a week or more now and you eigther love it or you have gone back to Firefox at this point.  The one thing not mentioned much is that Safari 4 supports HTML5 and CSS3.  HTML 5 now allows support for audio and video tags, which in turn allows much easier video and audio integration into ones website.  CSS 3 is also being supported by the browser which allows dynamic shadows and reflections within the browser itself.  Lets hope Apple touches more on this during the March 24th event.

Apple To Attend CES 2010

 

  As anyone who follows Apple news knows, Apple has left MacWorld for good.  Although still technically a rumor, many people have been confirming that Apple will be moving to CES in 2010.  This may sound bad to the many who attend MacWorld, but is a great change to bring two separate shows to one venue.  Instead of having to choose or rush from one to another, everyone can now go to Las Vegas for CES instead.  The interesting part is Apple is saying January is not an idea product announcement time for their current plans. They may have said this just to make MacWorld feel better about the loss of Apple.  Either way this should turn out to be an interesting year.
