An analyst report sent today hints at Apple producing an iPhone that would work with both GSM and CDMA networks. The OTR Global note obtained by AppleInsider claims to know of an iPhone in development with a hybrid Qualcomm chipset that will support the two normally incompatible standards. It would support UMTS-based 3G on carriers like AT&T and would presumably support EVDO-based 3G on Verizon and similar CDMA carriers….

Buy Apple stock. At last people are waking up to the idea that the foundations Apple has put in place over the last 8 years are now reaping rewards. Despite the fact AAPL has risen from around $75 in Jan 09 to around $200 now – this is …

After a long wait, Squarespace customers finally have an iPhone app of their own. Squarespace is a hosted blogging/CMS service that competes with the likes of WordPress.com and Typepad. Having used all three, I can say that interacting with Squarespace (posting, changing your site’s look and feel, etc.) is unlike the others. Instead of a separate control panel/dashboard, Squarespace previews changes in real time on the same screen. It’s really nice.
The iPhone app [iTunes link] seems to be an extension of its browser-based sibling. For example, check out the live preview mode pictured at right. You can also manage multiple accounts, post, upload multiple images at once (awesome) view stats and more. The UI looks nice as well.
While bloggers on other platforms have had compatible apps in the App Store for a while now, this is Squarespace’s first solution. We’re eager to play around with it. Squarespace for iPhone is free and requires a paid Squarespace account.

We’re seeing a lot of updates to navigation applications, and the latest is for the CoPilot Live app [iTunes link] for the iPhone. As promised, the company has updated the map data to fix mistakes or omissions that were reported by users. The latest update also adds iPod controls within the app, which many users were requesting.
The update fixes a reported address search issue, improves GPS reception and makes some improvements to the user interface.
The previous version of the U.S. $34.99 app added text to speech and a better method of text entry.
As we’ve mentioned before, the competition in nav apps is going to get very interesting if Apple allows the Google nav app into the app store. It will be free, and has a host of features that are not currently available in the paid apps that are shipping for the iPhone now.
With the FCC watching the relationship between Google and Apple, I’m thinking Apple will have to let the app in, but Apple has surprised me before, and not always in a positive way.

The initial rollout is small and will be limited to certain company-run stores in the Dallas/Fort Worth area as well as in New York City. Expansion to all of its stores isn’t expected until 2010….
