Ok, so Apple has been filing a lot of trademarks lately. I guess that’s good news, they have a lot of stuff coming up and they want to protect it. We’ve seen icons, trackpads, devices, multitouch technologies - today Slashgear has found out that Apple filed a trademark for the “stinctive design and layout” of Apple retail stores.

Apple Files Trademark For…The Apple Store Design
The iPhone is More Awesome than Space Travel.
I think people are gradually getting bored with the notion of space travel. It was cool to think about how we could populate Mars in the 1960s, but now it’s just a pipe dream that’s certainly not going to be accomplished in our lifetimes.

iPhone Sales Up 112% in First Quarter of 2010
Who says the iPhone market is dying? Amongst all the Android hubbub, Apple is gaining new footholds in the UK, China, and South Korea, leading to a 8.4 million units sold. In only a year, Apple has gone from a market share of 1.5 percent to 2.7 percent, and they aren’t slowing down any time soon. With the impending release of next iPhone in only a matter of months, and the possible addition of new carriers in the US, Apple’s sales are expected to substantially increase, but can they surpass companies like Nokia and Samsung in world market share?

Did you know that “leak” is a Vietnamese word? Not really, but it seems like every new Apple product is coming out from there first these days.
Today, we have a leak of an iPod Touch with camera, which is as mythical as unicorn tears - if you’ve been in the Apple-related news loop for a while now. There are pictures and videos, tour of Vietnamese cafè included. It’s a 2MP camera and the device is running a diagnosis firmware we’ve seen in action before.
Check it out after the break.
