More iPhone Firmware Rumblings, Notes

by

As we approach to the rumored late-February Apple event, trinkets of information regarding the next iPhone firmware are continuing to trickle in.

The latest but possibly most questionable rumor comes from HardMac/MacBidouille. The site posts an unconfirmed tip from an Orange Representative, who claimed the next firmware (v2.0) would bring Flash support (rumored), .Docx support, a file manager, copy/paste support (rumored for 1.1.3), more mature BlueTooth device management, and SMS via WiFi. HardMac has had a less than stellar rumor record. In this case, HardMac warns readers that this rumor is unconfirmed at this time.
