The rumors that I have seen, and there really haven't seemed to be a lot of them at this point, have been so all over the board that I don't know how to believe any of them.

It just goes to saying it's not really that good to base buying decisions on the rumor mill. Leading up to the iPad 2 the rumor mill was ablaze and insistent that it would have some type of retina display and more than 64 GB of storage, neither of which came to pass.

tiggy,
ND is right. The rumors aren't particularly accurate. However, I thought I saw some manufacturing diagrams from overseas that looked legit to me. If I find the link, I'll post.
What I would expect is the iphone 5 will be thinner, better camera, faster processor. I would probably bet folding $$ on those 3 things occurring. If you are thinking seriously of moving to Verizon, I do think waiting is probably better. I think the new phone will be a significantly better phone for Verizon and may use the new high speed Verizon network.

I'm trying out Chrome again - hot DAMN it's fast.
Anyone know how I can get it to open new tabs from the omnibar by default?

I just installed Ubuntu on my wee Asus Eee PC. It's so pretty and fast! And I used the terminal to install a chat client, so I feel all power-user-ish. That won't last, but it's a nice feeling for the moment.

Jessica,
if you find out, let me know.
I LOVE Chrome. Poor Firefox. I kicked it to the curb.

Coding and Sleeping
Chrome and Firefox 4 have become somewhat interchangeable for me. I like the higher level of control Firefox gives you over the browser, but I really like the way you can use URLs and Searches in the same place instead of two different places. Not that the Firefox way is some huge burden though.
IE 9 is a huge improvement, but setting it up with useful extensions seems like such a PITA compared to the other browsers.
I suspect once Firefox 4 is released that'll be my go-to browser. Chrome is still great, though.
