The other worldly iPhone may land on Verizon, and it may not. Much like the chances of an asteroid hitting Earth, we just don’t know what will happen. But if the Apple Corporation finally does invade with red flags in hand, the people of AT&T may abandon ship. According to 9 to 5 Mac, Davenport  and Co. analyst, F. Drake Johnstone estimates 40% of all iPhone owning AT&T customers may swim ashore on Verizon’s lands, which might explain AT&T’s recent Early Termination Fee updates.

…But as I’ve already said, jumping on Verizon probably won’t solve anything. So don’t be stupid! If demand for the iPhone is high enough, people will be quick to expose any all problems Verizon does and will have with their business and network. People, Verizon isn’t your savior. It’s the entire infrastructure that needs fixing.

What’s a student to do when he has wads of cash to spend? Buy a MacBook of course. Because not only are you getting Apple’s usual education discount (that lasts year round), you’re getting a free iPod touch, Classic, Nano, or Shuffle thrown in. But you might as well just get the iPod touch.

Apple has started sending out emails this morning telling customers that Apple Retail Stores will open early at 8am this Friday for the iPad.

Well, at least we’re almost there. In two weeks or so we’ll know everything about the new iPhone, served hot by Steve Jobs himself on the WWDC stage. Engadget is reporting that Apple is already looking out for actors for the upcoming commercials of the new iPhone, which (according to a trusted source) will be about the new video chat features.

What, the new iPhone does video chat?

You should start reading Vietnamese forums, brotha. You really should.

Mac Rumors is reporting that iPhone stock is getting slim in some places, and that Apple has stopped supplying new iPhones to AT&T stores. If you were in the mood to get a new device, wait, because new ones are probably on the way. In some places, such as Australia, the iPhone 3G can’t even be purchased anymore. So it looks like the iPhone 3GS might be our new $99 standard, while the next generation iPhone will continue to be priced at $199.

Is HTML 5 that hard to learn? While I understand companies don’t want to put time and effort into diverging from Flash, or simply making additional HTML content, many European publishers are wary of diving into Apple’s iPad pool of awesome. Although they have been keeping tabs on the boys down under, mainly Australia’s The Australian newspaper. Marketing a digital copy of their paper package for the iPad platform, they too are struggling to make the immediate switch from Flash to HTML - but they promise good things. If these guys continue doing well, they’ll set the example for publishers all around the world. After all, some companies may not be that good right now.

ChangeWave Research conducted a survey which suggests 16% of current share in the e-Reader market is through the iPad alone. If Apple continues to sell, and the price is right, publishers just might be able to make it in the digital world.

If you ever wanted to run Flash on an iPad, Steve Jobs has decided to give you that chance. The iPad XL, a revolutionary and magical new product, features an eco-friendly diesel engine, a 22.5 hour lifespan on a single tank, and a swivel handle to make it more portable than ever.

Seventeen percent of all Verizon customers could switch to the iPhone if it ever landed in the nation’s largest network. At least that’s what Katy Huberty from Morgan Stanley suggests, claiming that Verizon could sell 7 million iPhone units by year’s end. Further surveys reveal that 58% of all current iPhone customers plan to update to a next generation model, which would equate to the sale of 18 million new units. She contemplates whether Apple would drop the price of their iPhone (or an iPhone) by  $50, arguing that cheaper phone would ultimate sell more units. But amidst all these numbers, she boldly guesstimates that Apple may reach the $400 stock mark, which would be absolutely incredible (for any company) to reach. Time will only tell, an even though Android handsets are selling well, nothing has been slowing down the iPhone.
