What Will Apple Announce at Their Music-Centric September 1 Event?

Apple has finally made their September event official, and it's coming sooner than many expected—the "special event" will be held September 1 in San Francisco, and from the look of things it's going to involve music.

Some possible announcements:

• New, Facetime-ready iPod Touches?
• A 1.7" touch screen iPod Shuffle? (And some cases to add gas to the speculation havealready started popping up.)
• The feverishly anticipated cloud-enhanced iTunes?
• The long-rumored $99 Apple TV?
• 99 cent TV show rentals through Apple TV?

The Apple-sound-hole-guitar suggests that Apple's music making products might get updates—perhaps new versions of Logic and Garage Band? I certainly wouldn't mind if they were overhauled to take advantage of the Magic Trackpad's multitouch goodness. Or how about Garage Band for the iPad? Hell, I'd just take some news on the iPad's jump to iOS 4.whatever.

And perhaps at this event we'll finally find out the answer to the mystifying question: Why on Earth did Lady Gaga visit the Apple offices? If Gaga and Steve Jobs appeared on stage together, the combined reality distortion would be so great that I'm not sure our planet would ever recover.

Airphone 4 Review (Fake iPhone 4)

Ugly iPhone 4 Case Comes With Built-In Dual-SIM Adapter

This transparent iPhone 4 case doesn't exactly look great, but it comes with a clever feature: A dual-SIM adapter. It means that you can keep two SIM cards attached to your iPhone and toggle between them using a menu setting.
The adapter unfortunately doesn't allow both SIM cards to be active at the same time, but it's still a clever—albeit somewhat sloppy-looking—design. I'd just prefer the SIM cards to be hidden by an opaque case.

The adapter case is available now for $29.

Why the Netflix iPhone App Makes Me a Happy Zombie

My Netflix Instant queue is long. Very, very long. And because I'm not a quitter, I'm determined to watch every last bit of it. Attacking it from my iPhone actually gives me a fighting chance.

Here's a confession: I don't own an iPad. So while the rest of you have been have been luxuriating in the Dexter back catalog since April on 9.7 inches of portable Netflix goodness, I've been eying my 3GS with a mixture of contempt and disappointment. But it was like getting mad at a goldfish for not learning how to roll over. Different beast, different skill set.

But to be honest, even if I had an iPad, I'd still need the Netflix app on the iPhone. Watching movies on the iPhone has never been ideal. The screen's a bit too small, the battery drain's often not worth it. But here's the thing: the movies on Watch Instantly aren't so hot anyway. Netflix gets consistently boned with delays, up to and including their deal with Paramount, Lionsgate, and MGM that kicks in next week. Short of the often random Starz selection and some worthy oldies, the movies are pretty much bunk.

But fact, the reason my queue is so backed up isn't movies at all. It's the season upon season of bygone TV shows loaded on there, that I either missed the first time around or miss today. Firefly. Black Adder. Fawlty Towers. The Riches. Dollhouse. I already mentioned Dexter, which my reliably informed parents insist is a must-watch. And for the small screen experience, my iPhone is perfect. To carry and to display the kind of fidelity I need for TV. And to grab bits of TV any time an opportunity presents itself. On the train, the bus, while waiting in line with a bag in one hand and a video playing in the other.

Here's how Netflix streaming works on my 3GS: silky smooth over Wi-Fi, gimped over 3G. And I'm way more relieved about the former than I am concerned about the latter. Streaming video over 3G has always been untenable; I'm just glad they even offer up the option. But the interface is easy, the video is clear and crisp enough to make dream of retina displays, and it played back the first five twenty minutes of Futurama: Bender's Game.

Can I fawn some more? I'd like to if you've got a minute. But not just about Netflix on the iPhone. That's just one slice of the pie. It's been on the iPad for months. It looks like it'll be gorgeous on Windows Phone 7. Android can't be far behind (right?). Then throw in WiMax and LTE speeds. Maybe a future in which studios embrace broad distribution instead of fight it—or Netflix pays up for earlier distribution rights, given how much money they save streaming rather than shipping. That's when we can watch whatever we want, whenever we want, wherever we want. That's the dream. And we're so close.

For now, though? I'm about to go on vacation for a week. And I'm going to spend a lot of it catching up with Mal Reynolds and Manuel and some serial killer my parents watch week after week. I'll won't have to pack anything more than my phone to do it. I couldn't do that yesterday.

Never Swim Without a Soundtrack Again

Think about the last time you went swimming. Now think about what else you were doing the last time you went swimming. Nothing! Panicking, maybe. This waterproof Bluetooth headset from the boys at Brando brings multitasking into the deep end.

Whether you want to gab with your friends, orchestrate your next million dollar business deal, or just listen to the Little Mermaid soundtrack, you're only $57 away from adding Bluetooth to your backstroke. Specs:

IPx8 Certified to waterproof (3-metre/24-hours)
"Noise Rebound" technology makes clear talk
Touch Functionality through case surface
13 hours extra long talk and music time
Easy to detach and rotatble clip
Light reflective
Battery – 360mAh Li-polymer
A2DP / AVRCP / HF
Standy by 240-hours
Version 2.1 + EDR
Of course you could use it to listen to music while you were in the shower, too, but that'd be totally dorky.

Apple Wants to Remake the Audio Jack

Apple Wants to Remake the Audio Jack

Simply put, Apple wants fewer holes in its devices. Headphone jack—that's a hole. Microphone—that's a hole. According to a recent patent filing, Apple is looking to consolidate by combining the functionality of the two into one unified jack.

The patent argues that "in addition to using housing real estate, sound input apertures and electrical connectors introduce openings in the housing and breach the barrier that protects components inside the housing." So, fewer holes in the device itself, fewer ways for dust and other gunk to find their way inside. It also jibes completely with Apple's obsessively minimalist design ethos. Another potential perk of the two-in-one design would be enhanced voice quality, thanks to the addition of an extra noise-snuffing microphone—what Apple calls "audio beamforming."

Oprah is holding a contest for someone to get a show if they really, really want it.

Zach Anner is a man with a cerebral palsy (and he happens to be goddamned hilarious) and he deserves to win far, FAR more than "Dr. Phyllis".

For every 1 vote for Zach Anner, Dr. Phyllis is getting 30.

There is really no other explanation for it, considering that a certain group has been supporting Zach from the beggining, and the quantity of votes that Dr. Phyllis is getting is staggering.

iPhone 4 guide: preview, pricing, availability

Apple announced on Monday that the new iPhone 4 will be available to new and current AT&T subscribers looking to upgrade their phone early. The 16GB version will be $199 and the 32GB will be $299.

AT&T subscribers who use an iPhone will be given reduced pricing to upgrade to the iPhone 4 when it comes out on June 24th. Apple claims this offer will be granted to any who have their contract date in 2010, but as many users know, this will not be foolproof. CNET published a Q&A with AT&T’s spokesman Mark Siegel on Monday that answers many frequently asked questions subscribers may have.

He recommended to ask AT&T sales representatives for the answers and the FAQ below answers questions including AT&T’s upgrade policy.

Current iPhone subscribers are able to upgrade for the reduced prices on the iPhone 4 if their contract is up by the end of the year. What about customers whose contracts will expire next year? Will they be eligible for the reduced price six months before their contract ends?

Upgrade eligibility is based on several factors, not only length of contract. For example, AT&T takes into account your spending level, whether you are a good customer who pays his bill on time, and how far you are into your contract to determine whether you can upgrade early. AT&T has said that it will allow existing iPhone customers who are eligible for an upgrade between June 7 and the end of this year to get the best pricing for the iPhone 4 with a two-year term commitment. Consumers can verify upgrade eligibility here. Business customers can verify upgrade eligibility at AT&T’s Premier site.

Can a current iPhone subscriber, who is not yet eligible for an upgrade at the $199 or $299 price, get a reduced price on the iPhone 4 if he upgrades early?

Yes, any current iPhone subscriber is eligible to upgrade early. The price of the phones will be $399 for the 16GB iPhone 4 and $499 for the 32GB iPhone 4. Subscribers will have to sign up for a new two-year contract.

But what if the iPhone subscriber just got her iPhone a month ago. She still has two years left on her contract. Can she still get this reduced price on the new iPhone 4?

Yes, she will still be able to upgrade for the early upgrade price.

What about a current AT&T subscriber that is using a smartphone other than an iPhone, such as a BlackBerry or the Nokia E71x? Are these subscribers eligible for an upgrade six months before their contracts end like the current iPhone users?

No, they are not eligible. Only current iPhone customers can upgrade six months early. All other AT&T subscribers must wait until their existing contracts expire.

Can non-iPhone AT&T smartphone subscribers get the early upgrade price for the iPhone 4 before their current contracts expire?
No, only current iPhone customers are able to get the early upgrade price.

Is it possible to buy the new iPhone 4 from Apple at full price and not sign up for a data plan?

No, that’s not possible. All iPhones purchased from AT&T or Apple in the U.S. must be activated with a data plan. But subscribers can pay full price for the phone and not be tied to a contract. They can simply pay for their service month to month. And they are free to cancel the service at any time if they have paid full price for the phone.

Is it still possible to activate a used, hand-me-down IPhone 3G on AT&T’s network?

Yes, this should not be a problem.

Can non-iPhone smartphone subscribers keep their $30 unlimited data plans or must they subscribe to one of the new AT&T data plans that are capped at 200MB and 2GB?

All current AT&T smartphone customers can keep their $30 unlimited data plan if they upgrade to an iPhone 4 once their contract expires.

Family plans

If one person in a family plan is eligible for an upgrade, but another person in the same family is not yet eligible for an upgrade, is it possible to get two new iPhone 4’s for the $199 or $299 price?
Only the person whose phone is expiring is eligible for the upgrade. The other subscriber will have to wait until his phone is eligible.

If one person in the family plan already has an iPhone and another person in the same family plan upgrades to the iPhone 4, can this new subscriber get the $30 unlimited data plan too?

No, only the current iPhone subscriber is able to hold onto the $30 unlimited data plan. The new iPhone subscribers in the family plan must sign up for either the $15 200MB plan or the $25 2GB plan.

Let’s say that I have an iPhone 3GS. I’m not eligible for an upgrade, but my husband who is on my family plan and has an LG flip phone is eligible for an upgrade. Can I use his upgrade to get a new iPhone 4 for $199 or $299 for myself?

This is tricky. Technically, the answer is no. The upgrade is only for the subscriber whose contract is expiring. But a way to get around this is to “replace” the old LG phone with the iPhone 4. Then you can switch the phone numbers and continue to use the LG phone and reduce the service on that line.

Tethering

Is the new tethering plan flexible like the iPad 3G Plan? For example, can I activate it for 30 days or 60 days while I’m traveling or is it for the duration of the two-year contract?
You can call AT&T’s customer service line or go online to the AT&T Web site to add the tethering service when you need it, and then you can remove it when you don’t need it. Once you have added tethering it costs $20 extra a month and you must sign up for the $25 2GB data plan.

Can I use tethering with my existing unlimited data plan?

No, you must switch to the 2GB $25 data plan if you use tethering on the iPhone.

Can you tether the iPhone in a free AT&T Wi-Fi hot spot? For example, AT&T provides free Wi-Fi to iPhone owners in its 20,000 public Wi-Fi hotspots. But it does not extend to the laptop of the iPhone owner. If I’m using the Wi-Fi with the iPhone, can I tether the iPhone to my laptop and access the Internet via Wi-Fi also?

No, you cannot do this. The free Wi-Fi is only for iPhones. Customers who are tethering must use the 3G network when they have the iPhone connected to their laptops. And they must pay the $20 tethering fee and the $25 2GB data fee.
