Dupa zvonurile care dadeau drept sigura implementarea unui port conector de 19 pini in iPhone 5, iata ca acum aflam cu totul altceva. Cei de la iLounge sustin ca Apple va implementa un port conector de 8 pini in viitorul terminal iPhone 5 care urmeaza sa fie lansat in toamna. Nicio imagine cu acest nou tip de conector nu a fost publicata de vreun website, insa Apple a obtinut un brevet de inventie pentru un conector de 16/19 pini, deci orice este posibil. Problema este ca acest nou zvon le contrazice pe cele anterioare si pare putin probabil, avand in vedere ca reducerea numarului pinilor de la 30 la 8 si implementarea compatibilitatii cu standardul Magsafe/alte standarde nu erau prezentate.
According to two sources, Apple’s new Dock Connector features only 8 pins, seemingly contradicting claims of “16-pin” and “19-pin” connectors. Although the original Dock Connector contained 30 pins, reports of 16- or 19-pin connectors seemed hard to square with the port’s small size and Apple’s actual need for additional pins beyond what USB/Micro-USB offer. No images or parts for the connector have leaked out, either. Both of our sources concur that there are eight pins in a line within the new Dock Connector, which may well receive a different name going forward.
Cea de-a doua parte a zvonului ne da de inteles ca in iOS 6 Apple ar urma sa foloseasca tehnologia Bluetooth 4.0 pentru a permite interconectarea dispozitivelor sale si partajarea unor informatii. Mai exact, pe un iPod am putea vedea mesajele primite pe iPhone si am putea initia apeluri telefonice care ar fi controlate de iPod. Acelasi lucru ar putea fi disponibil si pentru tablete iPad sau Mac-uri care ar fi aparent capabile sa initieze apeluri direct de pe un iPhone, iar controlul apelului ar urma sa se faca de pe tertul dispozitiv.
iOS 6 + Bluetooth 4 Link. Our source also claimed that Apple is working on an as-yet-undisclosed iOS 6 feature that will act as a bridge between its Bluetooth 4-capable devices. The feature would enable, say, a future iPod nano to display iMessages received by an iPhone, record voice memos that could be shared via the iPhone, and even initiate phone calls through its own headphones. It could also conceivably let you make iPhone calls from your iPad (or possibly even recent Macs), assuming the iPhone was paired with the computer over Bluetooth.
In concluzie, avem noi informatii care complica si mai mult situatia actuala.
