Meet the concept iPhone Air and iPhone 6C
Here's a new concept video for the next iPhone that takes thinness to an extreme. The video from Set Solution offers its take on a theoretical "iPhone Air," and another envisions an iPhone 6C (the C here stands for curve, not color).The videos offer some beautiful renderings, particularly of the imagined iPhone Air, which it posits would be 1.5 millimeters thin at the top and 3 millimeters thick at the bottom, weigh 70 grams, and feature an edge-to-edge glass display.The iPhone 6C concept features a number of different colors like the iPhone 5C, but a pronounced curve on the screen similar to that of the LG G Flex, though the back is flat. Some of these videos have been floating around for a while, but are worth a look. While the videos are impressive, they are no way based in reality, and perhaps a little too good to be true. They also aren't the first concept videos to take a crack at an iPhone Air. We'll see if Apple comes out with something that looks like the products in these videos -- or perhaps something that looks even better. Via Nowhereelse.fr

Media group concerned about Apple subscription service (podcast)
Media group concerned about Apple subscription service (podcast)
On the following day, Google announced a rival service called Google One Pass which would take only 10 percent of the revenue and allow publishers to retain control over user data. While happy about these potential sources of new readers and increased revenue, Nina Link, the CEO of the Association of Magazine Media, has some concerns about Apple's approach. "Publishers have historically had relationships directly with the consumer and have access to data as they renew them year after year and as they offer them additional products that are targeted to their interests,"she said in a podcast interview.But with Apple's service, "it now becomes Apple's relationship and Apple's data," which she described as "problematic for us."

May AT&T leaks bring June iPhones
May AT&T leaks bring June iPhones
It's practically become a rite of spring.First, AT&T tells employees they are not allowed to take avacation in June. Then the company leaks to Boy Genius Report that the next iPhone is coming--right when everyone is supposed to not be on vacation. It's hardly surprising anymore, since we saw this same pattern last year. And the year before that. And the year before that.Here's the ever-so-brief blurb BGR ranWednesday under the headline "AT&T confirms to employees new iPhone launching in June": "Title says it all, but you didn't really need a confirmation, did you? The phone will be available for purchase in June, not July, and from what we've heard, it won't even be late June."The timing would be a minor change, since the iPhone has in the past gone on sale in either late June or early July. So if not late June, then perhaps early- to mid-June? We'll find out for sure on June 7 at the WWDC, where Apple CEO Steve Jobs is expected to introduce the next iPhone and release the official sale date.
