AppleiPhoneApps said they had received important messages from internal sources at Apple, for the next model of iPhone. Here’s a whole list of characteristics:

Prize and Models:

• There will be two models of the iPhone: a 16 GB and another from 32GB. The 8gb model to be no longer marketed.
• Prices remain the same as the 3G iPhone

Hardware & Design:

• There will be a 3.2 MegaPixel camera
• The screen is OLED-type (but not flexible)
• Given the characteristics of these types of display, the battery will last longer
• RAM and Process Power will double
• FM receiver
• The Apple logo will light up
• Will add the magnetometer

They also said that the released date will be july 17 2009. I honestly do not think this are news. I think this is only a collection of all the rumors that have arrived in recent days. Obviously take the news as a rumor because it might be true as false.

This is a new pinball game for iPhone called The Deep:

iBlogeek has released a Mac OX utility called BackToUp that will help everyone back up their device. The program is pretty good and make the backup of:

• Calendar
• Notes
• Bookmarks and History of Maps
• General Preferences (ringtone, etc)

Also, BackToUp can:

• Create a backup
• Restore a device using a backup
• Erase backups
• Update a backup

You can download BackToUp here.

YXFlash is a new application that is available in Cydia and includes the codecs to display Xvid / DivX video files . We will not longer need to convert movies into a format supported by Apple. The converted videos do play a bit smoother due to hardware acceleration, but xvid videos are watchable, at least the ones I tested. The player also plays flash content if you have downloaded flash flv videos to your device. It is not a web based flash player, this does not play flash videos embedded on websites. In order to add the videos just upload them using iFunBox or iPhone Browser.

Here is the complete list of formats supported by the complete version:

• Flash Video -> .flv
• Mpeg4, H.264
• Windows Media Video (.wmv)
• Xvid/DivX (.avi)
• MP4, MP3, AAC and Windows Media Audio

The free version offers support only for MP3 and DivX. You can download the application via Cydia in the BigBoss repository. The full version costs around $10.

It seems that Apple has reached a new milestone with the App Store. It now has more than 40,000 applications available to download all in 10 months. There is no official news yet, but AppShopper found 43,154 applications of which 40,253 are currently available in the American Store, AppTism instead found 41.611 which we certainly reached and exceeded the 40,000.
