Is this what the iPhone 5 will look like? Supposed part leaks assembled!

Take some of leaked parts, supposedly for Apple's next generation iPhone 5, assemble them together, and what do you get? A supposed iPhone 5! This time it's iLab Factory that have done the deed, and what they're showing off does indeed look a lot like one of the 4-inch prototypes Apple was rumored to be considering for the iPhone 5.

Easily visible is the miniaturized Dock connector, as well as the bottom mounted headset jack. Also impossible to miss is the metallic plate that covers the back of the iPhone from antenna break to antenna break, leaving only the top and bottom clear, glass, and presumably radio-fiendly. The Home button, Sleep/Wake button, and volume controls all look the same, though the front mounted FaceTime camera has been centered.

The 4-inch, 16:9 display will be the big story, though. It's the first screen size change since the original iPhone debuted in 2007.

It's tough to tell the real from the fake from the really fake, but these parts do match increasingly frequent rumors surrounding the iPhone 5, and it wouldn't be a huge surprise if it's fairly close.

One more photo below, and lots more via the source link below. Check them out and then let us know -- what do you think? Could this be what the iPhone 5 will look like come the fall? And if it is, what do you think of the design?

Decide.com?s Shopping Engine Now Tells You What To Buy, Not Just When To Buy It

Decide.com, the shopping engine that tells you when to buy, is expanding into a new frontier: it's now going to tell you what to buy, too. The service, launched last summer by former Farecast engineers following that company's�acquisition, has come a long way since its original debut where it was positioned as an electronics-only shopping service. Today, Decide offers "buy or wait" recommendations across 150 product categories, and will now start the rollout of its new product recommendations across 16 categories within the electronics and appliance verticals, with more to come. Says Decide CEO�Mike Fridgen, the company�is on its way to becoming the "big data technology version of Consumer Reports."

OS X Mountain Lion downloaded 3 million times in 4 days

Apple's brand new desktop operating system, OS X Mountain Lion, was downloaded over 3 million times in the first 4 days since it launched last Wednesday morning, July 25. Apple reports . According to Apple senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing, Phil Schiller, that makes it Apple's most successful OS X launch ever:

Just a year after the incredibly successful introduction of Lion, customers have downloaded Mountain Lion over three million times in just four days, making it our most successful release ever.

Mountain Lion is the ninth major release of OS X, and like Lion before it, focuses on taking iOS in general, and iPad in particular features "back to the Mac". The two operating system remain built on the same foundation but serve widely different purposes -- to use Steve Jobs' analogy, OS X is the truck where iOS is the car. Mountain Lion continues Apple's drive to make the car as nicely appointed as possible, with as many iOS-style amenities as possible, so that iOS users find the Mac just as accessible as the iPad.

That's the key to getting hundreds of millions of Apple mobile users to consider the Mac the next time they buy a computer. That's the democratization that drove the iPad, and that's now driving the Mac with Mountain Lion, Apple's ad campaigns with Genius commercials, and likely most of what else we'll see from them going forward.

Were you one of the 3 million who downloaded OS X Mountain Lion so far?

The Downsides to Apple?s iPad

When Apple’s iPad was launched, there were queues of people waiting to get their hands on one. The revolutionary tablet iPad was going to offer people a new device that was going to change their lives. However, a lot of people shrugged at the idea with clear indifference. Many people announced their disappointment at the fact the iPad could not deliver on it’s promises. The two opposing views show just how divided opinions are about the device. First we need [...]
