New $99 Nano iPhone in Jan 2009 - no 3G?

Once again iPhone rumors are floating in China . The latest is that
the next generation iPhone released will not be one iPhone but two
iPhones! Why is China the place where these rumors start? Simple,
thousands of people are involved in building iPhone components and
those that have the means know how to get inside information, once it
starts the information spreads. These rumors are used by accessory
manufacturers and agents in China to decide what they will produce,
when they will start to manufacturer it and when they should unload
their old stock. The right decisions could mean millions of dollars,
if you get it right and you get it early.


December 15th, 2008
No more speculating, the new iPhone is a Nano Phone !

There are images of a silicone case design by www.XSKN.com for the new
Nano iPhone. This case is in production. We are not sure when they
will release it on their site. The XSKN designs will give you an idea
of the shape and size of the new Nano iPhone. We understand that a
number of company are producing cases as of last week. If you
remember, before iPhone 3G was released a number of companies
including Griffin had advanced information of the size and shape of
iPhone 3G. We understand that once one company starts making a mold
their information is passed onto other mold companies or accessory
companies through a China underground network.

A Touch Nano iPhone is going to mean that the Apple accessory business
is going to be hotter than ever.


The new iPhone Nano Phone is the same height as the just release Nano
but wider and thicker and with the same iPhone 3G contours. It has 3
sensors, camera, mirror screen but no 3G. Production will start in
five days on the 20th with 60,000 to 80,000/day pieces coming off the
assembly line. Steve Jobs will be announcing it during the January
MacWorld Show and you will find it in the stores shortly afterwards.
Many are now putting their money on this as the final new iPhone
rumor. This phone is targeted at the people who couldn’t afford an
iPhone. We are told it will low priced and sold in Walmart stores
along with all of the current resellers. There is a rumor that there
will be a new iPod Shuffle too. You may see photos of the new
NanoPhone on websites by the 20th and maybe of the new iPod Shuffle.

There is a wiff of a rumor that there is a another new 2009 3G iPhone
too that has a slid out keyboard. I personally do not believe it.

You can buy some really neat kick ass GSM phones from China that rival
the iPhone in some features for a $100 to $200 max.
I am thinking of grabing one from a friend who has one that is too
complicated for him. hehe
All I would have to do is add my AT&T iPhone simm and my wifes PAYGO T-
Mobile simm (it takes both at the same time!) and I could have a ball
without giving up my iPhone or her Razr. Well I may dump her Razr, it
is obsolete crap compared to what you can have today.

If you know anyone going to China on holiday or business, check the prices
and buy while they are there. I know someone who does business over there.
They are selling $50 kids toys for 6 US cents trying to unload the billions
of unsold products that never got ordered. Warehouses are stuffed with the
stuff American, and the other consumer-based economies simply never
reordered.

China workers are in terrible condition, now.

Hey the guy who recycles cooking oil into diesel for his Mercedes.

Did you see the article today where scientists discovered it is easier
to make diesel out of coffee grounds? By golly, a whole new reason to
hit all the Waffle Houses.

Did you feel todays SC earthquake?

Guilty as charged on the oil. I filled up at the warehouse this
morning, as a matter of fact. My old '73 220D was nearly empty!

Nothing could be much easier than stopping by the back door of 3 Chinese
restaurants and helping them load it into my vegoil-powered stepvan. I
usually have to unload it myself, unless I get lucky...(c;

Interesting finding but $1/gallon is WAY too high! My homebrew for the
unmodified Mercedes diesels is only about 16c/gallon for the mineral
spirits I buy from the painting contractors when their job ends. They
always start a new job with all new stuff to prevent contamination. I
buy the mineral spirits (paint thinner) left over from the old
job....cheap!

I was eating breakfast at a little redneck diner near home when the
quake "hit", if it could be called that. It was only 3.6 Richter and
only 5KM deep so it never made it to N Charleston. Some people called
people I was eating with to tell them it shook their house in
Knightsville and Summerville, about 25 miles up from Charleston, but
nothing was damaged that we've seen. We get these tremors a couple of
times per year. I live about 300 yards from the fault line that leveled
Charleston in 1886, which crosses the Ashley River nearly perpendicular.

I tried to see if the river has sloshed around or had any waves on it,
but there was no evidence to show it on the dock or shore on either side
when I got home.

It was a non-event, but, of course, could be a prelude to something more
devastating as there were 3 such small quakes before the big one that
leveled the old city in 1886:

Population of Charleston in 1886 was only 2000 after the Sherman's
Yankees came through a few years before murdering as many as possible.
You won't see that in the revisionist history books....any more than
you'll read about the Israelis trying to sink USS Liberty in 1967.

You know, of course, that any notion of a 3.6 quake being even
mentionable brings snickers to us Southern California folks. I think we
had one couple weeks ago.

Same idea as Californians staring in horror at a good ol' Southern
hurricane. I stood in the eye of Hugo in '89, my bagphone in my hands
describing the absolute calm and beautiful stars above me as we waited for
the back side of Hugo to make everything that went left for 4 hours go
right for 4 hours....tearing our city to shreds.

At least earthquakes don't go on for hours and hours after the week of
anticipation watching it approach on TV and satellite. Bang, and you're in
the aftermath.

I agree. That's why I'll take the occasional earthquake.
