- Amazon to Release Smartphone With 6 Cameras?
Amazon is set to release its first smartphone that will feature 6 cameras within the next 3-6 months, reports Ming-Chi Kuo, an analyst at KGI Securities. Kuo is known for his impressive track record in predicting Apple news.
“We predict Amazon (US) will launch its own brand smartphone in 3-6 months, using the same hardware strategy as used for its e-reader and tablet,” Kuo wrote on Thursday in a note to clients obtained by BGR. “The supply chain will start stocking up materials in 2Q14 for production. We estimate required components will amount to 700k-1.2mn units, and assembly to 300-600k units. Related suppliers will start to see benefits in 2Q14.”
Kuo says the smartphone will feature six cameras, including one rear camera, one front camera, and four cameras that will be used for gesture controls. BGR says it was able to confirm this claim with its own sources.

Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Newsletter, App Store, YouTube - China Mobile Added 1 Million iPhone Users in February
China Mobile added about one million new iPhone users last month following the launch of the smartphone on its network in mid-January, reports the WSJ. China Mobile just reported its first annual decline in earnings in over ten years due to stiff competition.
Both China Mobile and Apple Inc. have high hopes for their partnership. The dominant Chinese carrier, which launched speedier fourth-generation mobile services in late December, is betting on 4G iPhones to attract new customers as competition intensifies. For Apple, the stakes are high in China. The country is the world’s largest smartphone market by shipments and the deal with China Mobile gives it access to an additional 776 million subscribers and new sale points.
“We added 1.34 million new 4G users in February and most of them are iPhone users. We are happy with the progress as we are still building our 4G network and the coverage is only available in some major cities,” China Mobile Chairman Xi Gouhua told The Wall Street Journal.

Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Newsletter, App Store, YouTube - EA Games Server Hacked to Host Phishing Site That Targeted Apple Users
An EA Games server has been hacked to host a phishing site which targets users with an Apple ID, reports Netcraft.
Two websites in the EA.com domain used the compromised server which ordinarily hosts a calendar based on WebCalendar 1.2.0. It’s believed that hackers utilized a vulnerability in the outdated version of WebCalendar to modify settings and execute arbitrary code. The phishing content was spotted in the same directory as the WebCalendar application.
The phishing site attempts to trick a victim into submitting his Apple ID and password. It then presents a second form which asks the victim to verify his full name, card number, expiration date, verification code, date of birth, phone number, mother’s maiden name, plus other details that would be useful to a fraudster. After submitting these details, the victim is redirected to the legitimate Apple ID website at https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
