When will the rumors and predictions stop? Probably when Apple produces a 3G iPhone. Bank Of America analyst Scott Craig thinks Apple will produce a small number of 3G iPhones (3 million) come Q2 2008 and launch a big production build (8 million) in Q3 when demand has risen. Apple stock jumped 2.8% to $144.20 because of the report.

like remote. Details are a little scarce, but according to Appleinsider one will be able to fill up the remote with select shows and the device will run a Tivo like algorithm to determine other shows that might be of interest.

According to Macworld, we should expect Blu-ray players to appear in Apple products later this year. This news comes by way of the Financial times, which confirmed that Sony’s US president, Stan Glasgow was in talks with Apple and Microsoft regarding the Blu-ray high def format.

According to one iPhone customer, an AT&T sales person demanded that he activate the iPhone at the time of purchase to prevent him from going home and ‘unlocking it’. Although, this contradicts the recently passed law (well about a year ago now if my memory serves me correctly) legally allowing anyone to unlock their phone, I’m not too surprised considering how many contracts AT&T lost due to unlocking last year. But it’s highly unlikely AT&T will be allowed to institute this policy since the Apple store allows folks to ‘purchase and walk’.

Called the iFund, Kleiner Perkins has pledged $100 million towards the developers of iPhone applications. The venture fund will look for apps that are “marketing-changing ideas” and focus on areas such as location based services, social networking, mobile commerce, communication, and entertainment (pretty much everything if you ask me).

Crunchgear is further disseminating a Fox News report that the 3G iPhone will appear either June 24 or July 1st. Fox isn’t exactly known for their accurate or ‘fair and balanced’ reporting, but then again the iPhone doesn’t influence any political competitions…or does it?
I’ve heard that a 3G and WiFi chip in one device will make it ultra expensive.

The ’sort of’ because Apple managed to eclipse Dell in laptop sales to ‘higher education’ only, in 2007. That means people studying at the degree or college level. This stat was further affirmed by Oklahoma Christian University who has moved away from Dell laptops and offered a program that allows PC users to trade in their current machines for Macbooks. This news comes on the heels of the university that’s offering a ‘free’ iPhone upon enrollment.
