iPhone 5 and iPad 2 to Feature a Dual-Core CPU?

article by By Skipper Eye | December 27th, 2010


An analyst at Rodman & Renshaw claims that the upcoming Apple iPad 2 will feature a dual-core CPU to compete with the likes of RIM PlayBook, and the Android “Honeycomb” based Motorola Tablet.
iPad 2 and iPhone 5
The analyst said:
Apple is on track to refresh the iPad by March and iPhone by late summer. A key component upgrade across these platforms will be a dual-core processor featuring a pair of 1GHz ARM Cortex A9 cores.
If this happens, it will be the first iOS product from the Cupertino-based company to sport a dual-core chip. And since both the current iPad and iPhone 4 shares same A4 CPU, it will be a no brainer for Apple to include the same chip in iPhone 5 that they are going to use in iPad 2.
The analyst also told CNET something about the Verizon iPhone:
iPhone volumes could also be maintained at the 15 million/quarter level through next year. The launch at Verizon could support an incremental 8 million units.

BlackBerry Maker RIM Thought Apple Was Lying About iPhone In 2007

article By Haras | December 30th, 2010


The original iPhone caused internal panic at RIM according to a former employee. RIM allegedly held several meetings the day after the iPhone was announced. The employee revealed that the BlackBerry maker accused Apple of lying about the iPhone as it was impossible for phone with such a large screen to last a useable lifespan.
He states: The iPhone "couldn’t do what [Apple was] demonstrating without an insanely power hungry processor, it must have terrible battery life," Shacknews poster Kentor heard from his former colleagues of the time. "Imagine their surprise [at RIM] when they disassembled an iPhone for the first time and found that the phone was battery with a tiny logic board strapped to it."

Steve Jobs shows the original iPhone.
Moreover, he states many other manufacturers such as Motorola, Nokia, and Palm had the same reaction. RIM in particular believed smartphones would never have enough battery or wireless technology for more functions.
Many believe that the BlackBerry Storm only came after the debut of the iPhone, combining this with the fact that the Storm was released nearly two years after the iPhone announcement, seems to support that belief. Still two years after the iPhone’s announcement, the Storm did not have multi-touch support until the BlackBerry Torch came out this summer. And even the Torch doesn’t have much potential in today’s market. Compare the 624MHz processor, 320×480 display with the iPhone 4’s A4 chip, and Retina Display and there isn’t much to say.
