Apple Admits It Can’t Produce Enough Of The iPhone 3GS

Apple Admits It Can

Apple has come out and said it can’t keep up with the demand for the new iPhone 3GS, but it’s ramping up production, and still planning to have the handset in 20 new countries next month.

Company COO Tim Cook told the BBC:

"The demand has been staggering almost in every country that we’ve shipped in."

Apple sold 5.2 million iPhones in the second quarter, which is a staggering seven times the amount for the same quarter in 2008.

What Apple Knew About Jobs’s Health Under SEC Scrutiny

What Apple Knew About Jobs

The Securities and Exchange Commission is launching an investigation into just how much Apple knew about the illness of company head Steve Jobs, and how much it disclosed, including whether it misled investors, according to Bloomberg.

Jobs has recently returned to work after a five-month absence, during which he underwent a liver transplant. Back in January he said he was taking leave to treat what he described as a “hormonal imbalance” but would continue as CEO. Just nine days after that things changed, as Jobs said his health situation was "more complex than I originally thought."

Apple Getting iTunes Ready for Blu-ray?

Apple may have been one of the early backers of Blu-ray, signing on to the Blu-ray camp back before the Blu-ray/HD-DVD format war had even ignited, let alone fizzled out.

Steve Jobs Leaves Apple until June

Despite an earlier assurance that his long-rumored health problems boiled down to a simple hormonal imbalance, Steve Jobs announced on Wednesday that he would take a leave of absence from Apple until June in order to focus on his health.

In a letter addressed to Apple employees, Jobs explained that the health problems he had made public earlier in January not as cut and dry as he had thought.  “During the past week I have learned that my health-related issues are more complex than I originally thought,” Jobs wrote. The letter did not mention to what degree things had taken a degree for the worse, or what treatments might lay ahead.

Apple’s iPod comes to Bose and Circuit City

The third generation iPods, which hold up to 7,500 songs in a stunning enclosure that’s lighter and thinner than two CDs in their cases, will be sold in all Bose retail stores and Circuit CitySuperstores.

“Bose and Circuit City are great additions to a lineup of retailers that have helped get over one million iPods into customers’ hands,” said Tim Cook, Apple’s executive vice president of Worldwide Sales and Operations. “With our new iPods flying off the shelves, we are thrilled to make them available to even more people nationwide.”
