Italian iPhone blog iSpazio has posted two photos of what they claim to be the frame and screen of the next iPhone, which they’ve got from a reliable source.

As you can read in the post (here’s the Google Translation) the frame has the same corners and little hole for the front facing camera as Gizmodo’s prototype, but what’s interesting is that they’ve been told from their source that Apple won’t use the much rumored AMOLED screens for the next iPhone, which will have a LCD screen, like the current generation.

Also, it seems like the screen connector is bigger, and this would confirm the alleged higher resolution of the new device.

Check out the photos after the break.

Steve Jobs didn’t create the iPad to be used as magical slates designed to deliver content at the tips of our fingers. Nope, the iPad was always destined to be a Netbook. You know it was Apple’s plan all along to wait for a manufacturer to deliver the perfect laptop clam-shell case, perfectly housing an aluminum device in its plastic housing. And folks, ClamCase has delivered that promise.

Apple’s patents are fascinating, and the one Unwired discovered is just insane: an iPhone with built in cardiac sensors that can monitor heart rhythm and identify who’s holding the device.

Flash is under fire again, and this time the attack comes from Opera Software. In an interview with Techradar, Opera’s product analyst Phillip Grønvold said that the future of the web is made of open standards, and that Flash is not open. If Opera wants to stay in the market, they need to support them and Flash for video really doesn’t make sense.

“Today’s internet content is dependant on Flash,” said Grønvold. “If you remove Flash you do not have today’s internet. We are trying to give the best internet experience for our users therefore we need Flash - there is no way to beat around that bush.”

But at Opera we say that the future of the web is open web standards and Flash is not an open web standards technology. Flash does have its purposes and will have its purposes, the same as [Microsoft’s] Silverlight and others, especially for dynamic content. But flash as a video container makes very little sense for CPU, WiFi battery usage etcetera – you can cook an egg on [devices] once you start running Flash on them and there’s a reason for that.”

So there you have it, Opera joins the debate as well. I think they’re making the right move.

Another bundle? It seems Mac applications are practically raining from the sky at ridiculously low prices. This bundle offers a different twist yet, as it becomes more expensive the longer you wait. If you’re going to add some apps to your stash, do it now, and get a copy of Cockpit for free (honestly a coincidence).

So you were scared Adobe was that ugly best dominating the internet world from their Flash-based throne. Perhaps you even thought that they called the Feds to start an investigation against Apple, the rebel who fights for a HTML5 world made of standard compliant houses and javascript flowers.

As TUAW reports, it seems like Apple has updated the downloads page on Apple.com again. You know, the page that lists all the best softwares for Mac OS X and that used to be one of the best traffic sources for developers. Used to be, because some weeks ago it turned out that Apple wasn’t updating the page anymore, and developers freaked out.

Relax guys, Downloads are back.

You know, awesome stuff can be developed using modern technologies such as HTML5 and CSS3. We’ve seen excellent examples before, like the Opera icon in CSS3 or Safari running inside Safari. What about a Mac application ported to HTML5 and running within your browser?

That’s what Bastian Allgeier of Zootool has managed to do by converting Cultured Code’s Things to a HTML5 / CSS3 “webapp”.

Patently Apple has found out that Apple has filed two new trademark applications, and this time for a badge (or as the application reports, a “mark”) with the words “Made for iPhone” or “Made for iPad” on it.

New Apple’s motto? There’s a trademark for that.
