Yet another reason to ditch AT&T: FaceTime over Cellular restriction.
At time of this post, AT&T will only allow FaceTime over Cellular if customer subscribed to Mobile Share data plans. AT&T is restricting the use of FaceTime over Cellular network unless you pay more. In the mean time, other video communication apps such as Skype are not restricted.
Following the iPhone 5 announcement, Verizon and Sprint will allow FaceTime over Cellular on any data plans. It is time to ditch AT&T and take our business to Verizon or Sprint.
Eleven Months Ago.
Back in October, 2011 I talked about the “Let’s talk iPhone.” event three days before the event was taking place. Obviously none of the three people who actually read my post believed what I said. Now, Apple is about to unveil the next iPhone, which would be called “iPhone ***” obviously. OK, I was just teasing, or Am I?
I have been pretty adamant about the name of the next iPhone. Every time someone said “iPhone 5”, I always said: “It’s out already, in 2011.”
It seems the people forgot that everyone called for “iPhone 5” last year. I did that too, until I was corrected by firstname@apple.com. Right after the “Let’s talk iPhone.” invitations were sent out, I “overheard” “iPhone 4S” as the name of the next iPhone. It made a lot of sense since the test unit looked exactly like an iPhone 4 CDMA version.
This year, everyone once again called for “iPhone 5” as the next iPhone. Knowing that iPhone 4S is the fifth generation iPhone, then the next one should be the sixth generation. Never once I heard the mention of “iPhone 5” name from firstname@apple.com; it’s always “the next iPhone”. I have this gut feeling that the next iPhone will be called something other than the much expected “iPhone 5”.
Apple will be kicking the next iPhone production into high gear comes September, 2012. Other than that, there had been some hints of a new or “transitional” product coming before the holiday season. We all will find this out pretty soon.
Apple v. Samsung: Appeal is Next
The verdict is in, Samsung lost their case against Apple. Jury found Samsung guilty of infringing Apple’s Intellectual Property. It is pretty obvious that whatever the outcome would be, someone would file an appeal; in this case Samsung do.
I was following The Verge live coverage of the verdict when it happened.
