iOS 4.2.1 Gold Master Now Available For Apple Devs, Hopefully Final

Hopefully, this is the final Gold Master version of iOS 4.2.1, which should be inbound to iPhones, iPads, and iPods soon enough. Reported fixes is the final clamp on that Wi-Fi bug and a few other improvements for members of the Apple Dev Center. If you know a dev, ask him/her for iOS 4.2.1. If you don’t know anyone, then try not to get it off BitTorrent or something and wait for the release.

Like you’d ever listen to that.

The New iPod Nano Only Costs $45.10 To Make, But It’s Priced At $149

I’ve heard of profit margin, but Apple has taken it to a new level. The production costs for the new iPod Nano, which is now sans a camera and clickwheel, are $43.73 in materials and $1.37 in total manufacturing costs. The most expensive components on the watch0like MP3 player are the 8GB of NAND Flash memory ($14.40), the display ($11.50), and the Samsung processor ($4.95). Also keep in mind each iPod Nano comes with its own headset and USB cable. But still those items are probably super-cheap as well, so we can only draw this to one conclusion: Apple is charging you for the iPod Nano because they can and want to.

And what about the $49 iPod Shuffle? It must cost like what, 20 dollars to make?

HTC sues Apple for patent infringement, seeks to ban iPad, iPod, and iPhone

HTC has responded to Apple’s patent lawsuits with their own. In fact, mainly what these infringements are targeted at are the iPad, iPod, and iPhone. Better yet, HTC’s compliant was to the United States International Trade Commission (ITC) to halt the importation of all iProducts mentioned above.

Basically, they’re trying the stop the iPod, iPad, and iPhone from being sold. Giz has obtained some docs claryfing what HTC is suing over, and the answers are: “Two are related to power management, two are over personalized phone dialers, and one’s over a telephone dialer with easy access memory.”

Although you can wait several years until any of this actually results in court dates. Give it your lifetime even. OK, not your lifetime, but give it a few long years. On the other side of the isle, Apple has not responded.

iPod Touch with camera appears on eBay, then vanishes on eBay

It’s been rumored for longer that you can even remember, but an iPod Touch with a camera is probably something that will eventually happen. Some folks who previously bought these Touches at an auction (some story, huh?) posted both of them up on eBay; one doesn’t boot at all, and the other uses an iPhone OS test system, meaning that neither iPod is actually functional, and the cameras can’t be tested (or trusted).  The eBay listing has ended prematurely though, which only leaves suspicion if they were actually real, or to bring some excitement for an upcoming iPod Touch with camera launch. At least 9to5Mac snapped up all of the images.

Apple’s Black Friday deals? Again? This time real?

Apple-Black-Friday

When we last reported the Apple Black Friday deals, maybe we were all wrong, because over at BGR, there’s another brochure, this time taking things into detail. iMacs start at $1098, iPod Nanos start at $138, iPod Touch starts at $178, MacBook Pros start at $1098, Apple TVs start at $208, Airport Express starts at $88, and Magic Mouse and Wireless Keyboard go for $64 each. According to BGR, the last Black Friday deal was from a “new” source, but this image comes from a source that’s “credible”. There’s one catch though: These deals are only at the Apple Retail Store.
