We’ve all been waiting for what seems like forever to hear more news of iPhone 5′s highly anticipated release. According to AllThingsD, iPhone 5 is scheduled for an October release as opposed to the rumored September release. This makes sense as Apple will probably want to roll out iPhone 5 with iOS 5 pre-installed, right? Right. Other rumors suggest Apple will host an event in late September with an actual product launch in October.
Rumors continue to circulate as to the actual details on iPhone 5′s design. We blogged about rumored features here and here and it seems that most of these rumors continue to stay the same. We’re still talking a dual-core A5 processor and beefier camera along with more speculation on a larger screen.
Pictures from Chinese manufacturers continue to surface, although nobody really knows if these are based on fact or pure speculation. This picture comes from Hui Tong.
Besides iPhone 5, however, there are also rumors about a possible iPhone 4s, which will be a lower-end model that comes unlocked with no contract required. I have a hard time believing that would actually happen, but you never know.
I guess we’ll all continue to wait and see how all of this iPhone 5 madness actually unfolds. We asked way back in April if you’ll be getting an iPhone 5, but this time around we’re wondering what features you’re hoping for most.

You love your magic mouse right? However I think it’s safe to say that the batteries die a little too soon in that sucker, which is pretty irritating if you’re right in the middle of a big project.
Over here at Simply Mac, we’ve seen the error in our ways and have converted to the Mobee Magic Mouse Charger, which has essentially eliminated our dependency on foreign batteries.
This cool little thing has a battery pack to replace regular batteries and a little charging pad for your mouse to charge when it needs a little break. Check out the demo video:
To make your user experience even better, download the better touch tool app, which monitors the battery life in your mouse and notifies you when your mouse is low on power. The combination of the magic mouse charger and the BTT app is pure mouse bliss! Plus, there’s extra cool features to the BTT app. Check them out here.
You can score your own Mobee Magic Mouse Charger in one of our eight retail locations.
