PostHeaderIcon iPhone 5 coming to Sprint, other carriers in mid-October?

Watch out AT&T and Verizon, it looks like there's an iPhone 5 hat-trick coming this fall. WSJ is reporting that the Apple smartphone will hit Sprint at the same time as those other two networks, bringing a well-needed boost to the carrier's shares in afternoon trading. We've heard mixed reports about an expected release date, but Wall Street Journal sources "familiar with the matter" are claiming that the phone will ship in mid-October.

PostHeaderIcon Apple unveils iMessage, its BBM competitor, at WWDC

It's here, the moment we've been waiting for since the original iPhone launched: iMessage. Apple has just announced its new data-based push messaging service at WWDC, which looks to be a full-on competitor to the venerable BBM. This new service requires an iOS device of any flavor, and lets you send text messages, photos, videos, and contacts to anyone else with one too. It also supports group chats and integrates with the new notification scheme present in iOS 5. According to Tim Cook, it "works over WiFi or 3G, in case you were wondering," which puts another nail in the BBM coffin. The final nail in the coffin for those of you who simply 'can't live without BBM': delivery and read confirmations. Boom.

Developing...stay tuned to our liveblog for the latest.
