<description>&#60;img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/1110/iphone4s-isuppli.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' /><![CDATA[A new cost breakdown by IHS iSuppli has given more definitive raw parts costs for the iPhone 4S.  A 16GB version of the phone is estimated to cost about $188, or within 50 cents of last year's model when it was new.  The switch from an Infineon (now part of Intel) chip to the dual-mode Qualcomm chip had little impact on the cellular chipset, which in total cost about $14 to $15....]]></description>

<description>&#60;img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/1106/iphone5-caseleak2.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' /><![CDATA[The earliest phases of production for the iPhone 5 and supposedly the iPad 3 are underway, part suppliers maintained Friday.

<title>Next iPhone hits final tests, no FaceTime on Verizon yet</title>

<description>&#60;img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/1106/iphone4-verizon.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' /><![CDATA[New details reportedly emerging Monday have the next iPhone at the very last stage before production.  The new design is supposedly at the AP stage, the very last stage at which the hardware is production-ready and good enough for both Apple and carrier executives to use as secret day-to-day models.  The 9to5Mac tip lined up with talk of production starting in July followed by a release in Septemb...]]></description>

<description>&#60;img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/1106/iphone4-6sm.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' /><![CDATA[Largan Precision in a shareholder meeting Thursday gave more official hints that it was supplying eight-megapixel iPhone cameras.  CEO Lin En-ping said that camera lens orders had been increasing to a number of Largan's clients, including Apple, HTC, Nokia, and RIM.  Most were upgrading from five to eight megapixels, so those later orders were growing faster, he said....]]></description>

<description>&#60;img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/1105/iphone4s-t-mobileleak.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' /><![CDATA[A Taiwanese supplier, Largan Precision, sees 8-megapixel lens modules replacing 5-megapixel ones as the mainstream for smartphones in the third quarter of 2011, according to local industry sources.  The change is attributed to "possible orders from Apple," presumably for the next-generation iPhone, alternately dubbed the iPhone 5 or 4S.  The claim backs earlier reports that Largan will supply lens...]]></description>

<title>Qualcomm blamed for no LTE on iPhone 4S, current stock thins</title>

<description>&#60;img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/1105/iphone4s-t-mobileleak.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' /><![CDATA[Insiders claimed Wednesday that the absence of LTE on the next iPhone, widely thought of now as the iPhone 4S, was owed to one manufacturer.  Qualcomm is reportedly having problems getting sufficient chip yields for the part Apple would want and thus not enough for production.  As most have been predicting, Apple was deemed likely by Digitimes' sources to be pushing a 4G iPhone to 2012....]]></description>

<description>&#60;img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/1104/ios5-leak.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' /><![CDATA[A trio of sources claimed Wednesday that the iPhone 5's production schedule had been narrowed down to the summer.  Production would start at Foxconn in July or August with shipments in September, consistent with talk that Apple would skip WWDC but use its annual music event to launch the phone.  One of Reuters' sources echoed beliefs that it would be "largely similar" to the iPhone 4 on the outsid...]]></description>

<title>Taiwanese Apple suppliers may raise prices</title>

<description>&#60;img align='left' src='http://photos.macnn.com/news/1010/Foxconn.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' /><![CDATA[Apple suppliers based in Taiwan may be forced to raise their prices, says Bloomberg.  The Taiwanese dollar has grown 2.5 percent against the US dollar during the last month, and by 7.2 percent during the last year.  One supplier, Wintek, is estimating that a 1 percent increase in the exchange rate cuts 0.5 percent off its gross profit margin....]]></description>

Foxconn will still put together the finished product, but Apple is now believed using three companies for the touch layer: Chimei Innolux is making 15 percent of the panels while the rest is split between Wintek and TPK.
