Sure, there are arguments against the idea of Apple licensing the iPhone interface. The primary reason is that people see Apple as being in the hardware business, and if others were making competing hardware, Apple’s own iPhone sales would suffer. Apple’s done just fine, thank you, without licensing the Mac operating system or the iPod clickwheel.

“An iPhone rumour site has published claims that the Apple mobile phone will be able to play ‘World of Warcraft’. The report cites an anonymous source — but seems based on a high degree of speculation.”

Apple has confirmed its intention to release the “remarkably compact Bluetooth headset” and a variety of accessories for the forthcoming iPhone.

There’s no doubt in my mind that Apple has a Bluetooth headset in the works (we even showed it to you back during the iPhone launch), but rumor has it that the headset is ready to make its grand entrance, especially now that it’s being mentioned (briefly) on Apple’s website. Will it be as fancy as the LG Prada headset?

If just seeing wasn’t believing, here’s a video that shows the Windows Mobile iPhone skin in action.

Just a little fun ‘comic strip’ put together showcasing the differences between the iPhone and ‘Smartphones.’

GSCO thinks that iPhone starts the next big growth phase for Apple, making it a core holding, and believes that the stock should be bought on dips prior to the product’s launch in June

What does Apple’s iPhone have in common with the failed Apple Newton of more than a decade ago? Nothing. Yet. But I was reminded of the Newton lately and how, despite its current hot streak, Apple doesn’t have an unblemished record when it comes to introducing innovative new devices. And the company may well be making some of the same mistakes now

“A little birdie told us that a firmware update for iPods is coming soon, giving you that same Cover Flow view that you’ve grown to love in iTunes now. See it in action, right here. The tipster also tells us that we won’t see any new-generation iPods before the iPhone debuts, either. – Charlie White”

An anonymous insider has supposedly seen WoW running in it’s beta stage on Apple’s upcoming iPhone. Whether this was actually seen in a dream or hallucinogenic state has yet to be determined but this is what the source said:

Even though its vanguard cellphone isn’t yet out the door, Apple is allegedly preparing a quick follow-up model with 3G wireless installed,” Aidan Malley reports for AppleInsider.

Apple aired their teaser ad for the Apple iPhone during the Oscars tonight.

The ad from the Oscars, “Hello”

There were no Apple ads during the Superbowl, this is the next opportunity to start a new campaign with a big audience. From MediaWeek: ABC on Friday said it has sold out its Feb 25 telecast of the 79th annual Academy Awards, and while the network would not release a dollar amount, sources said 30-second ad spots sold for about $1.7 million

So you’ve seen the iPhone’s lovable side, now check out five reasons on why you shouldn’t buy the iPhone, or at least this version

Even though its vanguard cellphone isn’t yet out the door, Apple is allegedly preparing a quick follow-up model with 3G wireless installed.

Sprint executive Oliver Valente said Thursday that he looked forward to Apple’s entry into the cell phone market. He warned, however, “it won’t be as easy as some believe to go from an industry where you are making a lot of money on hardware and not so much money on services into an industry where it is quite the reverse.”

Consumers aren’t willing to pay what Apple may ask for the iPhone but if the price drops they’ll switch their mobile service to AT&T in order to get it, according to results of a survey released Thursday.

It seems that a common theme in dialogue regarding the iPhone has become, “I’ll wait for version 2, thank you very much.” The sentiment makes sense in some ways; after all, the first-gen model lacks key goodness (3G radio, open platform, removeable battery), not to mention the fact that companies frequently fail to get the first version…..

Apple’s decision to announce premium pricing for the iPhone will likely play a significant role in the adoption of the consumer device, but if the Cupertino-based company keeps its current pricing scheme–which starts at $499–the company may face significant challenges in attracting large numbers of customers. A new study released Thursday found t

iPhoners, beware: 1. iPhone is being serviced by AT&T (Cingular, but Cingular & ATT are merged, Cingular to disappear) 2. AT&T is suspected of giving unfettered access to the NSA 3. That AT&T is pushing 24/7 access to its service — which then has 24/7 access to end-users? Apple users should tell Steve Jobs to get a different carrier.

Apple hasn’t exactly been forthcoming with details about what will and what won’t run on its iPhone, but curiously missing in action during Steve Jobs’ demo was Apple’s own instant messaging and voice chat program, iChat. Why does Apple’s iPhone have WiFi in the first place? Somewhere, somehow, there’s another shoe that has yet to drop…

Take this with a huge grain of salt, but rumor has it that Cingular’s exclusive hold on the iPhone will only last 14 days. After their time’s up, everyone will have the coveted phone in their arsenal. The rumor comes via a “leak” from a T-Mobile employee who claims they’ll have the iPhone two weeks after Cingular’s exclusive expires.

The resolution between Apple and Cisco over the disputed iPhone name yesterday appears to have gone Apple’s way, according to independent tech analyst Rob Enderle. The two companies agreed to several legal extensions following the Cisco lawsuit over the iPhone trademark, and under that agreement both companies are free to use the iPhone trademark o

Following a meeting with members of Apple’s leadership, Prudential Equity Group said Monday that the company expects the majority of iPhone sales to occur at its own retail chain and that it will not tread on any new product categories for some time.

Cisco and Apple today announced that they have resolved their dispute involving the “iPhone” trademark. After more than a month of public sparring, the companies recently agreed to several legal extensions, following the Cisco lawsuit over the iPhone trademark (in the US as well as the UK). Under the agreement, both companies are free to use the “i

Is it any surprise that folks are coming out of the woodwork and threatening to sue Apple over the iPhone?

3GSM, the big cell phone show, just wrapped up in Barcelona, Spain, and there were a number of big announcements. We’ve already seen LG’s Prada phone, which launched this month, take aim at the iPhone. At this show, we saw two others — both of which are capable of doing more that the iPhone does for less money.

Sounds like Apple is going to have to sit up and take notice.Unless they do something fast Apple’s iPhone may soon be called something else….

Not an iPhone but the concept is crazy! Perhaps iPhone NANO?
