We anticipated that on the release of the iPhone 3G the market would initially be saturated with first-gen iPhones, as users got rid of them in order to upgrade. We also thought that – given unlocking tools and a rich crop of applications are already available for any jailbroken iPhone (1G?) – the second user iPhone would become a cult object, creating its own alternate ecosystem. The report hints that’s what’s taking place....
The European Union has published a summary of its appeal against the $15.8B Irish Apple tax ruling that decided that the Cupertino company did not have to pay.

Tony Stark’s flawed choices make him an extremely relatable character, but some of his mistakes range from questionable to absolutely terrible. Whether it’s locking up superheroes in a secret prison or trying to make his armor faster with, uhhh, roller skates, Tony made some bone-headed decisions in the past. However, attempting to clone Thor has to be his biggest mistake ever. The events of Civil War shook the superhero community with a group of young heroes called the New Warriors causing a tragedy in Stanford, Connecticut during a pitched battle with the explosive villain Nitro....

Apple reached a surprising settlement with Qualcomm earlier this year, but the deal wasn’t reached early enough to affect the iPhone 11. PCMag reports today that the iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro both feature LTE modems from Intel rather than Qualcomm. PCMag explains how it was able to figure out that the iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max use Intel modems: In past years, Apple split iPhone modem orders between Intel and Qualcomm, but this year it seems that Intel is providing all modems....
After slipping to “2-3 weeks” for preorder customers, just two days after the launch of the iPhone 5 last week, readers informed us Apple’s website now lists the device as available to ship in “3-4 weeks” in at least the United States, Australia and Canada.

I gave my verdict on the iPhone 7 yesterday, and asked for yours. The majority of you – some 54% – said that the new iPhone was as expected. That’s not particularly surprising given than we’d previously reported almost everything we saw, but 28% of you were still impressed, while 17% were disappointed. Impressed or not, though, the majority of those who took part in the poll are intending to buy the new iPhone....
Earlier this month, a report claimed that the iPhone 7s would be thicker due to the switch to glass backing to accommodate wireless charging.

iPhone Upgrade Program members in the US were able to set everything up in advance to pre-order their new iPhone 12 on day one.

Pre-order data shows that more people have ordered the iPhone 7 Plus than the smaller 4.7-inch model. It’s the first time that the larger model has proven more popular than the regular one, with the dual camera the most likely explanation.

All these new lines will come in multiple colors, one of the lines will come in two size capacities, and the other two lines will come in a single storage capacity....

A Weibo blogger has shown photos of what are claimed to be iPhone 12 notches and screens, specifically of the 5.4-inch model. The display panels appear to be in racks prior to assembly into their casings … As with many such images, it’s hard to assess whether they are what they claim. The overall edge-to-edge design and notch shape and size are a good match, but this is now an increasingly common smartphone design....
iPhone 12 Pro orders are now slipping into late November and early December. Apple was reportedly taken by surprise by demand levels for the more expensive of the two models which went on sale last month.
