Some solution to the new SIM card problem

Some report resolving the issue with a brand new SIM, while some have reason to think it is the reader itself. Plus there is an organization referred to as Woo Servers, which implies the malfunction relates to a brief circuit the result of a design flaw using the SIM tray. They’ve provided an in depth listing of instructions to treat the issue, having a simple bit of tape because the cure. Sadly, not everybody appears to enjoy the advice. So, Cupertino, choose to help?

Currently, the hack is missing an iPhone 4 GPU driver that keeps things running buttery smooth on the elder phone, and Cupertino won’t authenticate Siri’s commands coming from it either.

Both phones will also have 53 hand-set crystals adorning the Apple logo on the smartphone’s back. Both units, available after Oct. 7th, will also be worth $6,100.

It can schedule appointments, take dictation, check the weather, find restaurants, search the web, and more. It basically serves as a virtual assistant of sorts. But it moonlights as a comedian. Below are some of the sillier responses Siri has given me during our chats.

At this point, if you haven’t pre-ordered a device, the only way to get the iPhone 4S on launch day will be to stand in line at a local retail store.

…showing us the Siri settings interface which allows you to turn Siri On/Off, change Language Settings, adjust Voice feedback, and enable Raise to Speak – lets you choose between activating Siri by holding down the home button or simply raising your handset to your ear.

iPhone 4S also introduces Siri, an intelligent assistant that helps you get things done just by asking. Siri understands context allowing you to speak naturally when you ask it questions, for example, if you ask “Will I need an umbrella this weekend?” it understands you are looking for a weather forecast.

Based on CAD designs, hardware components, several leaked hints, cases and recent, believable mockups we created a three-dimensional computer model. This virtual model was then used to build a very detailed, true prototype that you can hold in your own two hands.

We now have evidence that cases for the rumored iPhone 5 redesign have already begun arriving at AT&T retail stores, as one reader has sent us alleged photos of iPhone 5 silicone sleeves that appear to have arrived at his AT&T store today.

This would be Tim Cook’s first product launch event since taking over for Steve Jobs as Apple CEO.

Let’s see the 10 possible places where Apple might unveil the new iPhone 5 :

  1) Yerba Buena Center for the Arts

Apple had multiple product launches at this particular location in the past years witch is very close to Moscone Center and Market street. Unfortunately we know that Oracle booked this auditorium for its Oracle OpenWorld Conference on Oct. 4, so Apple might need to find another location to launch its iPhone 5 or choose a different date.

Location: San Francisco
Capacity: 757
Similar alternatives: San Francisco Design Center or San Francisco Museum of Modern Art
Odds: High

   2) Apple Headquarters

Another place where the new iPhone 5 might be launched is Apple’s own base of operations.The only problem is that Apple’s auditorium seats can take only 250 persons, that less then half as Yerba Buena center for the Arts, the place where they held multiple events in the past years having the same size and scope as this one announced in the early October.

Location: Cupertino, Calif.
Capacity: 250
Similar alternative: Apple Store (San Francisco)
Odds: Even

  3)Palace of Fine Arts

This landmark located in San Francisco has it auditorium at under 1.000 seats in a theater style, the perfect place for Apple’s event to take place. At our first glance at the Palace calendar, the location is available for 4th October.

Location: San Francisco
Capacity: 962
Similar alternatives: California Palace of the Legion of Honor, Academy of Sciences
Odds: Good

  4)Fillmore Auditorium

With a counter-cultural image as the company with the highest marker cap value in the history, would Tim Cook choose to unveil the iPhone 5 at a rock’n'roll auditorium ? The musical acts at such Apple events would dig it.. but the layout of the space still raises questions.

Location: San Francisco
Capacity: 550 (theater)/1,000 (reception)
Similar alternatives: The Warfield, Curran Theatre, American Conservatory Theater, Great American Music Hall
Odds: Low

  5)The Old Mint

This Greek Revival-style location has been used in the past by other tech companies for private events. Not really Apple’s style, also the place set-up ins’t fitting the company’s “modus opreandi” for this kind of events. However it is in San Francisco, so who knows ?

Location: San Francisco
Capacity: 400+
Similar alternatives: War Memorial Opera House, Nob Hill Masonic Center
Odds: Slim

  6)Alcatraz

Alcatraz ??? C’mon ! How cool would this be ???

Although Apple din’t get to be one of the most successful companies in the world by throwing money around for appearance sake.

Again this would be WoW !

Location: San Francisco Bay
Capacity: A couple thousand plus at least one bird
Similar alternative: Treasure Island
Odds: Narrow

  7)Letterman Digital Arts Center

We only mention this because Stormtroopers + iPhone 5 would be cool

We don’t think this would be possible, we don’t know how Apple and Lucas are getting along anymore and it’s not Apple’sstyle to dilute it’s brand in such way.

Location: San Francisco
Capacity: 300
Similar alternative: Pixar headquarters
Odds: Slight

  08)USS Hornet

Likely to militaristic for Apple this famous aircraft carrier who retrieved the Apollo 11 astronauts after the first mission on the moon. This aircraft hosted an unforgettable AMD product launch a couple of years ago(2009)

Location: Alameda, Calif.
Capacity: 3,000
Similar alternative: F.E. Warren Air Force Base Intercontinental Ballistic Missile and Heritage Museum
Odds: Negligible

  09)AT&T Park

We know the Giants won’t use the joint in October, but it is less likely for Apple to hit the “Home Run” by unveiling the iPhone 5 at the picturesque of the San Francisco Giants.

Location: San Francisco
Capacity: 41,915
Similar alternatives: Oracle Arena, HP Pavilion (ha ha, like either of those are going to happen!)
Odds: Infinitesimal

  10)Black Rock City

We are sure the chances for this to happen are close to zero, not because Apple can’t get tens of thousands of fans to camp here, for the simple fact that we can’t imagine the Playa populated with people that are doing everything in their power to look and act like everyone else:).

Location: Black Rock Desert, Nev.
Capacity: 55,000+
Similar alternatives: The Australian Outback, the Folsom Street Fair, Mars
Odds: Zero

…the Dashboard and its widgets (which ironically are really only useful in a portable device like the iPhone and iPod Touch), a lock screen with phone, mail and SMS notifications and more.

The elongated hole for the home button has suggested that the home button may itself also become more oval in shape. That is the direction our designer took as well.
