No confirmed reports about specifications from Apple or any other blogs, but based on rumors iPhone 5 might come with a larger 4 inch screen(reports of 4 inch LCD production to be starting in June), an A6 processor and thats all we know.

The iPhone 4S has smashing sales for Apple with more than 80% of the sales being of iPhone 4S out of the 37 million iPhone sales in the most recent quarter.With the patent fiasco as well as with problems with Foxconn workers or China, apple needs to soon sort out all these so that it can gain more sales from future innovative iDevices.What do you feel on this ?

Tired of checking Windows updates and then updating language packs then Microsoft doesn’t want to repeat how it rendered language packs as in Windows 7 and for this Redmond is releasing upcoming Windows OS i.e Windows 8 in 109 languages.In a blog post on MSDN, Microsoft reveals that they have now separated language packs from Windows Update and introducing new Language preferences in Control Panel itself which would show you installed languages along with the one’s enabled and keyboard layout on the system.

Language preferences is the one place to go to add or change display languages, input language, and other functionality.
- Ian Hamilton, Program Manager, Windows International Team

In addition to separation thing, UK English is now standalone language in Windows 8. As Ian Hamilton explains – We admit that this is something we should have done a long time ago. Windows users in the UK have gotten by with the US English version of Windows, and while we Americans knew this was not their favourite, that is clearly no defence. We believe that this version of Windows will also be widely used in India, Australia, South Africa, New Zealand, the Republic of Ireland and many other places.

Currently with one standalone language and 13 new Language Interface Packs i.e LIPs Windows 8 would now come in 109 languages.Some of the  LIP’s include Punjabi (Pakistan), Sindhi (Pakistan), Central Kurdish (Iraq), Uyghur (People’s Republic of China), Belarusian (Belarus), Kinyarwanda (Rwanda), Tigrinya (Ethiopia), Tajik (Tajikistan), Wolof (Senegal), K’iche’ (Guatemala), Scottish Gaelic (United Kingdom), Cherokee (United States) and Valencian (Spain).

This means to say that users with slow connection will have to shell out some dough and upgrade to a faster broadband connection to download Mountain Lion from the App store.It also suggest thatt Apple has finally ditched all form of hard media to distribute all its operating systems and is likely to spell the end of the DVD disk for software in the future.

This move to software downloads away from disk installs all started with the launch of the Mac Apple Store in Snow Leopard. Aside from letting you download the current Mac operating system, Mac OS X 10.7 Lion -available as a digital download through the store when it launched in 2011 – the Mac App Store, much like the App Store for the iPad, iPhone, and iPod, allowed users to download software for a range of applications.

The Mac App Store is now the home for all Apple software as well as other software from companies such as Adobe and Intuit.

Including installs on new Apple Macs, Apple says that it has virtually shipped more than19 million copies of the current operating system, Lion, to date, with a 30 per cent uptake from Snow Leopard users, suggesting the digital download path has been a successful one.

This is what Apple had to say to justify their new move

It was an interesting test, but it turns out the App Store was just fine for getting the new OS.

The new OS, which has been released as a developer preview (download only), is expected to be available for customers at a yet unspecified date sometime over the summer.

Those who can’t wait to till then will be able to digitally download (of course) the new Apple developer preview of Mountain Lion to experience the new operating system, beta bugs and all.Till then check out Engadget’s review of Mountain Lion OS X
