this episode of techno buffalos brought to you by Linda welcome back to the episode of rumor roundup the show we take all the tech rumors from the week and we serve them up to you on a tray of tech rumor awesomeness up this week we got a ton to talk about iphone 5s delayed because of a fingerprint scanner issue Verizon's Nokia Lumia 928 event is expected to hit next month windows 8.1 is gonna bring back an old friend and call of duty ghost has been leaked by multiple retailers this is rumor roundup let's start rounding them up allegedly the iphone 5s has been delayed because of fingerprint scanner issues last week we published a report that claimed manufacturing issues were forcing Apple to delay the mass production of several new products including the iphone 5s now report from Rueter says the company has indeed push its plans production from June to later in the summer or early fall the culprit for the delay is apparently related to apple's fingerprint scanner which is expected to launch on the iphone 5s right under the home button Reuters also said that at least one parts manufacturing first the company has poison apple because it has such high standards a separate report on Monday suggests apple returned five to eight million dysfunctional iphones pink-apple if they release another product that's a sort of incremental upgrade with a few new features I think it's only gonna hurt the company's image I say come out swing and bring back so that Apple glory don't think the delay is a bad thing take it as a good thing that they're trying to get it right Verizon's Nokia Lumia 928 is expected next month smartphone has been rumored for forever we've already been treated to several leaked photos really show you exactly you need to know if you're hoping for some sort of awesome ultrapixel age or their 41-megapixel sensor got the wait a little bit longer however bloomberg also said the phone is made out of metal which doesn't quite line up the leaked photos that suggests it's built out of the plastic we've seen on previous nokia devices Nokia's aluminum smartphone is allegedly codenamed the catwalk and his entirely different device from the Lumia 928 so who knows you've been enjoying your touch Green Metro you died up windows 8 well supposedly 8.1 is coming soon it's gonna bring back an old friend the start button but supposedly this source speaking to the verge claimed that the buttons return will allow users to access the Start screen although it won't include the traditional Start menu the button is said to look near identical to the existing windows flag using the charm bar the wider consumer response to windows 8 hasn't been overly positive you know it's very interesting windows 8 they really tried to sort of redefine the OS it was very difficult for new users who weren't actually text I picked up a new computer to learn how to use Windows 8 so perhaps have that start button there get people the option to use a traditional Windows environment still have that start button versus using the metro or modern UI whatever you want to call it could be a nice bridge between the two different windows experiences so ready brace yourself I don't want to surprise you too much but it looks like Activision might release another call of duty this year I know I'm surprised to a new call of duty this year they just released one last year this leak has been making the rounds earlier in the week on gaming sites around the net game is dated for 12 30 13 which is more than likely just a placeholder date then Saavik izing was leaked from target those are the release day there is no vember fifth 2013 I think the name change was brought on because of a potential super awkward alternative if Infinity Ward stuck with modern warfare 4 this game would have been modern warfare 4 call of duty 4 modern warfare but regardless new call of duty I used to love the call of duty game please to get them every single year sort of all sarcasm aside they got a little bit stale for me a year after year after year so hopefully ghosts will bring something new and revamp the franchise give it a shot in the arm if you will so what do you guys say excited
