Most of the gadget press is obsessing over whether the Palm Pre is an iPhone killer, but they're asking the wrong question. We've been testing one for the past few days.
So, where does theApple iPhone 3G S get its claimed "2x faster" leap in speed? Rumors are rampant that Apple is using a new chip to crank up the performance. Why rumors.
WASHINGTON (Dow Jones)--Members of the Senate Finance Committee huddled Wednesday to take a closer look at a proposal by Sen. Kent Conrad, D-N.D., to establish member-run health-care "co-operatives.
Apple has flatly refused to tell anyone just what chips lie inside the iPhone 3G S. In fact, while Apple insists that the "s" in 3G S stands for speed, it could equally well stand for secrecy.
One of Apple's wireless partners is confirming Wednesday that the new iPhone 3G S indeed sports an embedded ARM processor that's 50 percent faster that the one employed by its predecessor.
