2013-01-03
hey I'm Kareem levy and I'm Emily Dreyfuss and happy new year welcome to rumor has it the show where we round up the week's biggest tech rumor and then we vote on what sounds legit and what seems like it will never ever happen and remember that you can vote on all the rumors too so keep your eye out for the interactive poll if you're watching on cnet first looks like blackberry messenger users are finally going to get video chat images leaked of the new face time like service for blackberry 10 in a reader forum on crackberry com but have since been taken down but not before the boy genius report snagged a few for posterity I didn't even realize that BlackBerry's had cameras kidding but only kind of the launch of blackberry 10 is slated for january thirtieth so if you care at all about this rumor you'll find out benefits for real next up according to Japanese newspaper Asahi Shimbun toshiba is creating lighter light camera technology for mobile devices that should be released before the end of 2013 much like light shows light field cameras toshibas version would let people choose what part of a photo they would like to focus on after they've taken the shot the camera would also supposedly record video in a similar fashion which is something that lytro hasn't yet introduced this is an awesome concept the lytro camera is unimaginably fun to play with but it's a standalone device that's decidedly unnecessary especially if you're thinking about dropping a few hundred bucks if it were built into a camera phone though whoa yeah I wonder if putting the tech into a camera that you have with you all the time will allow it to take off or if it'll just be another gimmicky feature like 3d next Russian gadget site rosette ked has a video of the samsung galaxy s4 that is really cool like stop what you're doing and go watch it cool okay are you back did you see how thin the s4 looks that laser keyboard the projection onto the table and works perfectly it make us the galaxy s3 look like one of those old like wouldn't crank sizes but before you go out and sell your samsung galaxy s3 on Amazon let's consider the source rosette kid is a Russian gadget news site this video was made in by them supposedly of leaked parts the marketing language is in English but it's definitely not formed by someone entirely fluent as employees of a gadget news site ourselves let us tell you how unlikely it is that leak parts of the hottest phone in the world right now made it on to rosette keds editor's desk that would be highly unlikely more likely the graphic design team at the Russian site is pretty talented and that's not nothing it's a really cool video just almost certainly fake next an apple rumor that doesn't have to do with the phone or a TV can you believe it Business Insider is reporting that Apple has partnered with Intel to develop an iOS watch according to supply chain sources the watch would be Bluetooth enabled and it'll have a 1.5 inch oled screen and it would be released sometime in the first half of the year this isn't completely unfamiliar territory for Apple of course you can already buy a band for the ipod nano and wear that on your wrist just like cnet editors Scott Stein did he loves his nana watch I don't see a reason for Apple not to do this it'd be great to wear while exercising and if it had a FaceTime camera you could pretend that you were a spy although be the greatest father's day gift ever so what do you guys think do you think Apple is going to make a watch what colors would it come in what features would it have don't forget to vote while we ask the cnet council the cnet council is composed of five editors who cast their votes anonymously their opinions are not an endorsement by cnet or CBS interactive obviously because these are rumors folks and the cnet verdict is no four out of five of our cnet editors think that apple will definitely not come out with a SmartWatch but one of them said why not that's our show everybody please share your rumours that rumor has it at cnet com or call us at 1 800 750 cnet and tweet us next week we're going to be coming at you live from the cnet stage at CES in vegas we're going to scour the show floor to find you the hottest rumors see you then you
