<description><![CDATA[This is just part of the awesome graphic--click it to see the whole thing.(Credit:Nowhereelse.fr)It's our job to keep the various rumors about upcoming Apple devices straight, but even we have a hard time. Right now, it's looking like Apple won't be releasing a newiPhone this summer as had been expected, but may later in the year. But what will it be likeThere have been rumors of bigger screens, faster processors, and even a touchless payment system built in, and that's just the tip of the iCeberg. (See what I did there) Thankfully, the wonderful artists from French Web site Nowhereelse.fr have stepped in to help. They've created a giant infographic (part of which you see above) that not only conveniently lists all the various rumors going around, but also gives odds on each one becoming real.And they made it look awesome. I recommend that each of you bookmark this image to use as a reference as we wait and wait for the next iPhone to arrive. It helps.<br/><br/>0 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Barrett Lyon&amp;39's blog revealed that traffic destined for Facebook was mysteriously re-routed through China. (Credit:Blyon.com) A funny thing happened to some traffic heading to Facebook earlier this week. It ended up going out of the way through China. Barrett Lyon, an entrepreneur and network security expert who blogged about the incident on Tuesday, suggested it was merely an accident. But Rodney Joffe, senior technologist at DNS (Domain Name System) registry Neustar, disagrees and described it as &quot;route hijacking.&quot;  &quot;It's real. It is happening. It can't be described as an 'accident' anymore,&quot; Joffe, who observed similar traffic snafus involving China last year, said in an e-mail to CNET today.  China is notorious for its efforts at censoring the Internet, and free speech activists worry about the government being able to snoop on citizens' Internet communications, although what officials there would want with U.S. citizens' traffic is anyone's guess. Here's what happened, according to Lyon's post: &quot;Quietly this morning customers of AT&amp;T browsing Facebook did so by way of China then Korea. Typically, AT&amp;T customers' data would have routed over the AT&amp;T network directly to Facebook's network provider, but due to a routing mistake their private data went first to Chinanet then via Chinanet to SK Broadband in South Korea, then to Facebook. This means that anything you looked at via Facebook without encryption was exposed to anyone operating Chinanet, which has a very suspect modus operandi.&quot; In his analysis, Lyon speculates that most likely nothing happened to the data. &quot;Yet China is well known for its harmful networking practices by limiting network functionality and spying on its users, and when your data is flowing over their network, your data could be treated as any Chinese citizens.' Does that include capturing your session ID information, personal information, emails, photos, chat conversations, mappings to your friends and family, etc One could only speculate, however it's possible.&quot; Lyon also questions whether Facebook or AT&amp;T should have notified customers of the problem, whether Facebook should enable SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption by default (that became an option in early February), and whether high-profile sites should be allowed to route to non-authenticated networks.  &quot;This happens all the time--the Internet is just not a trusted network,&quot; he wrote. &quot;Yet I prefer to know that when I am on AT&amp;T's network, going to U.S.-located sites, my packets are not accidentally leaving the country and being subject to another nation's policies.&quot; <br/><br/>0 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[AT&amp;amp'T makes a case for bringing its customers greater LTE coverage after it merges with T-Mobile USA.(Credit:AT&amp;amp'T)AT&amp;amp'T and T-Mobile rocked the United States this morning with merger plans that would make T-Mobile USA part of AT&amp;amp'T's empire. (That's assuming the buyout receives regulatory approval' until then, it's business as usual at T-Mobile for now.)Both T-Mobile and AT&amp;T have a claim to fame in recent smartphone history. AT&amp;amp'T was first to get theApple iPhone, in an exclusive two-year deal no less, but it was T-Mobile that first got the Android ball rolling with the T-Mobile G1.CNET will have much more news and analysis coming up. In the meantime, here's a look at the two companies by some key stats, including current coverage maps for voice and 3G data.&amp;nbsp'AT&amp;amp'T WirelessT-Mobile USANumber of wireless subscribers95.5 million33 million2010 revenue$58 billion*$21 billion**Employees (parent company-wide)266,50024,700International coverage (voice)More than 200 countriesMore than 200 countries3G technologyUMTSAWS4G technology***HSPA+' LTEHSPA+Flagship phonesApple iPhone 4, Motorola Atrix 4G, HTC Inspire 4GT-Mobile My Touch 4G, Samsung Galaxy S 4G, T-Mobile G2*AT&amp;amp'T 2010 Annual Report, pp. 27, 32 (PDF)**T-Mobile 2010 Annual Report pp. 9 (PDF)***Though HSPA+ is not an official 4G technology, both carriers bill it as such.
