Is the new iPhone on its way?
iPhone Firmware update Hints at A New iPhone Device
Apple may have unintentionally tipped users off to a new iPhone model that's in the works thanks to information in the combination iPod and smartphone's firmware. Mac Rumors found that the device's firmware includes a reference to "iPhone2,1" which isn't the same identifier code used for the current iPhone 3G model. Whats up Apple?
The current iPhone 3G line is identified by the "iPhone1,2" code and the original iPhone was "iPhone1,1." The "iPhone2,2" code most likely indicates a device that includes enough hardware differences from the current model to classify it as a new product, (eg... new iPhone).
Apple has already shown off its identifier code pattern with the iPod touch line. The original model was labeled as "iPod1,1" and the second generation model -- which included a faster processor, a speaker, volume controls and microphone support -- was tagged as "iPod2,1."
Apparently some Web sites are even seeing traffic from a device identified as iPhone2,1, .
While the new code could mean Apple is working on a new addition to its iPhone product line, it might also mean that the company is working on the third generation iPhone -- and that it will include enough changes to classify it as a new product, and not just an upgrade.
Gmail works offline!
Google’s Gmail Now Works Offline
Forget that hot spot….Google has obviated the need for a WiFi connection for its Gmail users, who will soon be able to gain access to their mail even when they’re offline.
The new offering, in the works for several months, incorporates a Google tool called Gears, which is already used by several web applications, including two Google products, Google Reader and Google Doc. To the use the service, users must download Google Gears. The services also brings Google up to speed with other cloud computing competitors, including Microsoft.
With the new tweak, Gmail users will be able to read, archive or write messages. Gmail has traditionally offered its webmail customers lots of space for messages and an effective spam filter. But there will likely be some restrictions on the amount of content that clients will be able to access without an Internet connection.
Here’s the formal word from Google on Offline:
“We’re making offline Gmail available to everyone who uses Gmail in US or UK English over the next couple of days, so if you don’t see it under the Labs tab yet, it should be there soon. Once you see it, just follow these steps to get started:
1. Click Settings and click the Labs tab.
2. Select Enable next to Offline Gmail.
3. Click Save Changes.
4. After your browser reloads, you’ll see a new “Offline 0.1″ link in the upper righthand corner of your account, next to your username. Click this link to start the offline set up process and download Gears if you don’t already have it.’
