Anatomy of a rumor: The Atom-powered Newton iPhone
http://apple20.blogs.fortune.cnn.com/ 2008/ 05/ 15/ anatomy-of-a-rumor-the-atom-powe...
As Winston Churchill might have put it, an Apple rumor can fly halfway around the world before truth has a chance to get its boots on. Case in point: the iPhone mini-tablet story that broke Wednesday afternoon in Germany. It started with a bad computer

Intel Denies Atomic iPhone Rumor [Apple]
http://gizmodo.com/390801/intel-denies-atomic-iphone-rumorRumors about an Atom-powered tablet based on the iPhone are a bit premature and overwrought, says Intel. We all jumped on it after the head of Intel Germany made some cryptic (and perhaps poorly translated) comments. He was talking about types of

Intel retracts Atom powered device comments
http://iphonefanclub.eu/?p=304Intel retracts Atom powered device comments It seems Intel would like to shy away from comments made by their German manager yesterday. We saw yesterday a rumor originating from a German language source, that said that Intel had confirmed that a higher resolution iPhone like device would be powered by their new Atom processor. According to Intel however, these were general remarks, about what their new processor “might” power. Intel says that the whole mess stemmed from a poor German to English translation of the article, posted in a German language version of ZDNet. It is interesting though, that the original article we saw posted yesterday from the source, is different than the one that has been posted now. “Intel knows nothing over future products of other manufacturers and can therefore over it also nothing say,” -Mike Cato, Intel Spokesman Hopefully the quote sounded a lot better in German than the translated version shown here. It is an interesting story, as other sources attending the same event, that heard the German Intel manager speak, did not say he said anything about the iPhone. Others, say they did though. It is a messy rumor, and the only way we are going to know for sure is when WWDC rolls around. [Via Apple2.0 Fortune Blog] Author admin

★ Great story in The Guardian on how Apple is changing the way the music industry thinks about DRM. In short, the labels thought DRM would give them control, and somehow sell more music. The reality is they’ve given Apple control, and, duh, people prefer buying DRM-free music. Plus, everyone other than Apple needs to go DRM-free if they want their files to play on iPods. I think Microsoft has helped doom DRM for music, too — by screwing it up so badly, so many times. The flip side, though, is that DRM rules the day for paid video content.

Intel vetää sanojaan takaisin iPhonesta
http://macmaa.com/intel-vetaa-sanojaan-takaisin-iphonestaIntel on vetänyt takaisin Saksan-johtajansa sanomisia uudesta iPhone-mallista, kertoo ZDNet.de. Eilen uutisoimme, että Intelin johtaja olisi kertonut uuden, tablet-pc-tyyppisen iPhonen sisältävän Intelin uuden Atom-suorittimen ja isomman näytön. Intelin mukaan johtaja puhui prosessorin käyttötarkoituksista vain yleisellä tasolla hypoteettisesti. Myös Fscklogille puhunut Intelin saksalainen tiedottaja kielsi, että yhtiön johtaja olisi kertonut mitään uudesta iPhonesta. Asiasta kirjoittaa myös Fortune.

Intel iPhone?
http://www.arrozconnori.net/2008/05/14/intel-iphone/El 3 de Marzo del presente año, Intel presentó Intel Atom una nueva gama de procesadores orientados a dispositivos móviles de muy bajo consumo. Y hoy el CEO de Intel en Alemania ha confirmado a ZDNet que Apple está usando estos procesadores en lo que sería una versión ampliada del iPhone con una pantalla algo más grande. ¿Será este el rumoreado y ansiado iTablet? (abandonando así la plataforma ARM, que es la que utilizan consolas como la Nintendo DS) Un rumor más, o ida de lengua de alguien que no tenía que haber dicho nada. Ha sido desmentido oficialmente por Intel. Y mientras tanto España sigue sin saber nada, en sudáfrica y alguna isla de la polinesia ya tienen el iPhone confirmado. :-/
