releasing a phone according to a report
in The Financial Times amazon and HTC
are working on a new line of smartphones
unnamed sources tell the publication
that the first of three devices is near
the end of development HTC told the
times that it would not comment about
Amazon but said it is always open to
collaborating with carriers and other
tech companies remember the facebook
phone yeah me neither hopefully an
Amazon phone or probably more accurately
the Kindle phone doesn't follow the same
path and people actually buy it and with
HTC's backing it looks like it could be
well on its way and finally the rumors
have been confirmed that Apple will be
holding an ipad event on october 22nd so
here's a quickie to whet your appetite
accord
to leaked images from Chinese sightsee
Texian calm the iPad 5 will sport a
fingerprint reader just like the iphone
5s so obviously why wouldn't the iPad
sport a fingerprint reader I'm also
pretty sure that either it or the ipad
mini will come in colors that match the
iphone 5 s's what do you guys think are
you down to buy a gold iPad do you think
the touch ID sensor is a waste don't
forget to vote and leave a comment and
I'll check in with 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
council's verdict is yes four out of
five editors think that the next gen
ipad will have a fingerprint sensor and
