There is no iPhone 5.

Hold on, don’t sell your Apple shares yet.

There will be a new iPhone to follow the iPhone 4 and it will be released in June, or in October, depending on which rumour is true.

But one thing is almost certain – it will not be called the iPhone 5.

Click here to read: Why iPhone 5 is just around the corner

Although most news articles and blogs are calling it the iPhone 5, in tune with the numbering series Apple has followed so far, it could break the pattern this time.

The precedent has been set with the launch of the new iPad, not the iPad 3, just the ‘new iPad’. Just before the March launch of the new iPad it was widely expected that Apple call it the iPad 3.

Some even termed it the iPad HD, but Apple has officially called it ‘the New iPad’.

The first iPhone had the EDGE technology and a 2 megapixel camera.

With the second model came the 3G wireless technology. the third model with its 3 MP camera and a faster processor was called the iPhone 3S.

The iPhone 4 was the fourth model that the company released and came with an impressive 5MP camera along with an additional front facing camera and the retina display.

The fifth model although widely expected to be called iPhone 5 was named as iPhone 4S and had an impressive 8 MP camera along with SIRI.

So what will Apple call its next phone?

The obvious choice would be iPhone 5 as a continuation of the numbering system.

Apple could also simply decide to bypass the number 5 and call it iPhone 6 since the next model will be the sixth version of the iPhone.

The next model would include the 4G technology and why not call it the iPhone 4G, or, as with the iPad, Apple is likely to completely do away with the numbering system and simply call it ‘the New iPhone’.

Will Apple Inc launch iPhone 5 or… what?

Unlike previous versions of OS X that came on a separate installation disk, which could be used as a recovery and diagnostics tool, Lion is distributed through theMac App Store and therefore does not have the option of a separate boot medium. To give people a similar option, the Lion installer creates a small “Recovery HD” partition that you can boot to by holding Command-R at startup.

This recovery partition is convenient, especially because it is faster than conventional optical media; however, some people may have problems with their systems either missing this partition, or having multiple ones after a reinstallation.

If your system cannot boot to its recovery HD partition, then it may be missing from the system. To check this, open the Terminal program and type the following command:

This command will output all the attached storage devices and their partition layouts, so you can see if the Recovery HD partition is present. another option for viewing the presence of the recovery HD partition is to use Disk Utility’s Debug menu; however, enabling this would also require the use of the Terminal.

Missing partitionsIf after checking the partition layout you cannot find the Recovery HD partition, then you can easily restore it by downloading and reinstalling Lion from the Mac App Store. However, in some cases, such as if you have a special RAID setup for your boot drive, the system may not create the recovery HD partition. if after reinstalling OS X you still do not have a recovery HD partition, then your system cannot support one on the boot drive in its current configuration. You may have to change its partition layout or its RAID properties to get this to work.

Multiple partitionsIf you find that you have multiple Recovery HD partitions on your system, then this may be because you have multiple hard-drive devices on your system that you have installed OS X Lion to, even if you have since formatted the volumes containing the extra installations. each device will have its own Recovery HD partition, but if you do not need to boot to those secondary installations, then you can remove them from the system. Even if you do still wish to have a second installation available for diagnostic or testing purposes, unless you use FileVault with that installation then you will not need to have the Recovery HD partition for it, and can remove it without harming the installation.

To remove the extra Recovery HD partitions, first enable Disk Utility’s debug menu and then use it to show all partitions in the program. then locate and select the Recovery HD partition on your secondary hard drives in the Partition section of the program and click the minus button to delete the partition. when complete, open the Terminal and run the following command, replacing the word “IDENTIFIER” with the identifier string for the main partition on that drive. this string will usually be something like disk2s2 or disk1s2.

sudo diskutil resizeVolume /dev/IDENTIFIER R

Be sure if you delete any recovery HD partition that you do so from your main boot drive, and that you only do so if you do not use FileVault. the Recovery HD partition is used to store the encryption keys for FileVault, so if you deleted it, then you will render your system inoperable when you next boot, and will not be able to access any data.

Other optionsWhile having a local recovery HD partition is convenient, unless you use FileVault or Apple’s find my Mac iCloud service, then the Recovery HD partition is not necessary to have. on newer Mac systems you can use Apple’s Internet Recovery by holding Option-Command-R at startup, which downloads the Recovery HD image from Apple and boots from that. Alternatively you can download Lion from the Mac App Store and then either create a Lion installation disk from it that can be used for recovery purposes, install it to an external boot drive, or once installed to an external drive use Apple’s Recovery Disk Assistant tool to create a thumb drive for the recovery partition.

Addressing OS X Lion recovery partition problems

A crowd gathers outside Apple's iPad HD launch event at San Francisco's Yerba Buena Center for the Arts.

Just before it unveiled the new iPad at a media event in San Francisco today, Apple announced that iOS 5.1, the next update to the company’s mobile operating system, is now available.

The list of new features isn’t extensive and largely consists of bug fixes and interface tweaks. That said, there are a couple of useful additions. here are the highlights that Apple has listed in iOS 5.1′s documentation.

A Japanese SiriThis was the only feature of iOS 5.1 that Apple CEO Tim Cook specifically mentioned during his time onstage. Siri, the voice assistant exclusive to theiPhone 4S, now will be able to understand and talk back in Japanese. though Apple says that the new feature may not be completely available at first, I was able to switch our Verizon iPhone 4S to Japanese without any hiccups. unfortunately, my knowledge of the language doesn’t extend past simple greetings like “Good morning,” but CNET’s Seth Rosenblatt was able to ask a few questions like, “What is your name?” he said Siri uses a formal vocabulary, but that she responded correctly and he was able to understand her. Just keep in mind that Siri is not a translation service, so if you have her set to Japanese, she will not respond to English commands or questions. And if you’re counting, Siri now can converse in four languages: Japanese, English (Australian, British, and American), French, and German.

Photo StreamAfter Photo Stream debuted as part of iCloud and iOS 5, users quickly complained that once a photo was uploaded to the feature, they couldn’t delete it. Fortunately, iOS 5.1 adds that option. so go ahead and take those embarrassing photos at next weekend’s party. You can remove them the next day as you nurse your hangover.

Camera shortcutiOS 5 added a nifty lock screen shortcut that allowed users to quickly shoot a photo without having to unlock theiPhone first. the only trouble was that it wasn’t always visible, particularly when you really needed it. With today’s update, though, the shortcut will be present at all times. What’s more, instead of pressing the camera icon to access the camera, you can now slide up the lock screen. I’m not sure the new action is all that improved, but it’s there just the same.

Face detectionOn the iPhone 4S, the camera app now will highlight all faces that it detects when you’re trying to snap an image. of course, it won’t always detect a face even when it’s squarely in the frame, but when it does you’ll see the green box over the person’s mug.

iPad Camera appIn another small but noticeable interface tweak, the camera shutter has moved from the menu bar at the bottom of the viewfinder to the right side of the frame. And as you rotate youriPad from portrait to landscape mode, the button shifts accordingly.

Improved audioiPad users also are set to get louder and clearer audio when watching television shows and movies. We haven’t see a huge difference so far, but we’ll never kick an improvement out of bed.

More GeniusiTunes Match subscribers now will get Genius Mix and Genius playlist suggestions. Nice, perhaps, for those who use iTunes Match, but not significant to anyone else.

New podcast controlsIn the last iPad-only addition, you’ll see new controls for changing the playback speed on podcasts and rewinding for 30-second segments. the latter is a great feature if you miss a beat while listening to a show and want a quick and easy way to catch it again.

Updated AT&T network indicatorIf you have an AT&T iPhone 4S, you may notice that a small “4G” icon is now appearing next to the signal strength meter. It will show only when your phone is connecting the carrier’s HSDPA network. As we’ve told you a few times, classifying HSPA+ as true “4G” is a bit of a stretch, but that hasn’t stopped from AT&T from doing so.

Bug fixesApple also said that iOS 5.1 addresses bugs that affect battery life and fixes an issue that sometimes caused audio to drop for outgoing calls. call quality and battery life are two things that make a phone, after all, so we welcome any fixes. We’ll have to say, however, if we see performance improvements over time.

iOS 5.1 is available today through an over-the-air update or by connecting your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch to iTunes. We’ll add more new features here as we see them, and please tell us in the Comments section if you discover any other changes. for more Apple software news, check out our first impressions of iPhoto, the new iWork apps, GarageBand, and iMovie.

Apple iOS 5.1: First Take

The company, as it has in the past, has taken down its online store to prepare for the launch of Apple’s nexttablet.

Apple’s online store is down, which can only mean one thing: new products are launching soon.

In just a couple of short hours, Apple will be holding itsiPad event in San Francisco. as it has in the past with other product launches, the company has taken its online store down to update it with the goodies it plans to unveil today.

And what might those goodies be? Apple has already made it clear it’ll be showing off a new iPad, though there is some question whether it will be called the “iPad 3″ or the “iPad HD.” just yesterday, The Verge reported, citing sources, that Apple will also show off a new Apple TV at the event.

Apple’s online store won’t be back up until the iPad 3 event is over. But if you want to find out what the company unveils before then, be sure to come back for CNET’s live blog, which starts at 9:30 a.m. PT.

An epic battle between the ruler of the tablet universe and the tablets of Android-land is about to begin once more. In other words, it is that time of year again when Apple shows to the rest of the world what the company has been cooking in its minimalist kitchen – which is often followed by the usual praises, bickering and back and forth arguments amongst critics and users. In case you didn’t receive the memo, we should inform you that Apple is expected to unveil the upcoming iPad 3 on March 7. (If rumors are to be believed, it may be known as the iPad HD instead).

Now would be a good time to take a breather after the Android assault that was Mobile World Congress 2012 — and enlist the army of Android tablets that the Apple iPad 3 will be up against.

In order to capture the attention of the general public, a couple of tablet manufacturers have decided to take the path less traveled. instead of coming out with same ol’ same ol’, companies like Samsung, Asus and Toshiba added unique capabilities and designs to their tablets. it remains to be seen if these distinctions would be enough to cement their positions in the market. Nevertheless, let’s give it up for the Samsung Galaxy Note, Asus Padfone, Asus Transformer Prime and Toshiba AT270.

We don’t mind singing the praises of Samsung Galaxy Note on Sunday – if only for being ever so bold to create a hybrid of phone and tablet that actually works. Since the South Korean company doesn’t even know how to call it, let’s just call the Galaxy Note a phablet. taking a leaf from Dell and HTC, the Galaxy Note is a 5.3-inch monster of a phone or a slightly smaller tablet that comes with an active stylus for note-taking purposes. It seems people are digging the Galaxy Note. Samsung reports that they have shipped over 2 million units of the phablet worldwide.

Oh yeah, that's what i'm talking about.

The Asus Padfone – and a host of accessories that you can buy for it – is an interesting bunch. it really is an Android phone with a 4.3-inch screen. but slide it in the proper slot, and boom, you have a working tablet that utilizes the Padfone as its brain. the 10.1-inch screen certainly is more ideal to play cut the Rope. Connect the tablet to the station dock – and boom – you have a working notebook.

The ever-transforming Asus Padfone

It would be a crime not to mention the stunningly beautiful Asus Transformer Prime / Infinity Pad and its metallic spun design. Fitting 10.1-inch super IPS panel, Nvidia quad-core CPU, and 12-hour battery life in an ultra slim 8.3mm casing that weighs 586gr is no small feat. A mobile dock is also available for it — offering a full chiclet QWERTY keyboard, USB port and an added battery life that makes the whole unit last 18 hours. the Apple iPad 3 certainly finds a formidable foe in the Transformer Prime / Infinity, especially in the looks department.

As for Toshiba AT270 – the tablet merits a place on this prestigious list for its dazzling 7.7-inch AMOLED display, 1280×800 resolution, and Tegra 3 quad-core processor. Like a phoenix rises from the ash, the AT270 is a significant departure from Toshiba’s old ways. another thing that the tablet has got going on for is its extremely thin figure. it is possibly the thinnest tablet in the world, not just of the Android persuasion. At more or less 7.7mm (to be confirmed) – it is a feat that the tablet shares with the Toshiba Excite X10.

Rumors are aplenty when it comes to the Apple iPad 3, but we don’t know for sure what the final model would be. If it’s true that the iPad 3 will feature a 2048×1536 Retina display, then hats off for Apple for bringing something truly new to the market. Of course, there have been rumors about a certain Asus tablet that will match that higher-resolution display soon. we are also looking forward to the flagship Android tablet model that Google is expected to release in the next six months.

One of the advantages that Android tablets have over Apple iPads is that they come in all sorts of shapes, sizes, and prices. Like your ICS-flavored Android tablet to come with a sub-$100 price point? There’s an Ainol tablet for that. want a high-end 10.1-inch model that costs an arm and leg? Plenty to choose from here too. No wonder rumors are rife about the intention of the Palo Alto company to release a mini model of the iPad, which may or may not come at the end of the year.

Folks, we are only at the start of the war of the tablets. while Apple has so far won the battle(s), the war is far from over.
