Apple’s Silence on 3GS Hardware Specs = Good Call

June 15, 2009

Like many people, I was quite surprised that Apple did not go into much detail at all about the full hardware specs for the new iPhone 3GS at their WWDC keynote last week.  There was lots of talk about speed, and major speed improvements, but no revealing of, and boasting about, a specific new [...]

I still have a MobileMe account (though I’m leaning towards not renewing it) so it occurred to me today that I could test out the new Find My iPhone feature in OS 3.0.
