iPhone 5 Found in a Bar – No Pictures
CNET has reported that an iPhone 5 was lost then found and sold on Craigslist towards the end of July. The iPhone 5 was lost by an employee and when found, it sold for about $200 on the Craigslist website.
It reminds us of what happened last year when Gizmodo purchased an iPhone 4 for $5000 and put pictures of it up on the Internet. This time around Apple was a little more lucky in that no pictures have been released.
Flickr Adds Geofences for Smart Privacy Settings
Flickr has introduced a new privacy feature that uses Geofencing to set photo viewing permissions of your uploaded snapshots. What a Geofence does is allow you to set a location on a map and then specify who can view photos that were captured in that particular location. An example used in the image below shows Home and School. For pictures captured in those two areas (with a 100m radius as an example), only certain friends and family could see those pictures which might be classed as more private.

More iPhone Leaks
The iPhone 5 release date is expected to fall in the next 4 to 6 weeks. As we continue to get closer to the launch date we continue to see more leaks and information about the device. As Apple is very secretive about products the only information comes from small leaks which sometimes are correct and other times not at all. Rather than being just 1 device launching this time around, we have heard that Apple will be launching 2 devices which includes the new designed iPhone 5 and a budget iPhone 4s.
What we see next are a few parts on what are believed to be an iPhone 4s. This new device is believed to be codenamed the N94 and be a smaller 8GB version of the iPhone 4. We also hear there’s an N97 model being tested which is believed to be the iPhone 5.
