iPhone 5 rumor-round-up

Posted by Astra Technical Services on June 7, 2012

OK for many months now people have been speculating on what the new iPhone is going to look like… Well after doing some research and collecting data I have managed to grasp some info and bring it into a blog site round-up for all to see.

First and formost is the rumor of a bigger screen.

It is said the new iPhone (or “iPhone 5”) is going to have a 4 inch screen {see below} [up for from the original 3.5 inch]

In the pictures mentioned above you will also come to notice that not only is the phone longer but most everything on the bottom of the phone has changed in 1 way or another.

Square in Stores!

Posted by Astra Technical Services on June 6, 2012

Square’s turning up the heat… Now when you walk into a store like Walgreen’s, Staples or Fedex (office locations) you will see the credit card terminal on the store shelves for sale at just $9.95 a dongle. You may ask yourself “Why would I pay for a Square Card Reader?”, well it’s because it’s actually free. There is a $10 rebate inside for “new users”. If you prefer to just go online and make an account you can still do that as well and wait for the card reader in the mail or just head down to the store to pick one up.
