New iPhone said getting 'next-gen' CPU

The next revision of the iPhone should be characterized by a dramatic increase in processing power, an alleged scoop by veterain technology writer John Gruber says. He refers to "informed" sources who say the iPhone will jump from its existing 412MHz clock speed to 600MHz but adds that a change in architecture should lead to a disproportionately larger increase in performance. Similar to the leap from Intel's 80486 design to the Pentium, the change is large enough that the difference should be more than the 50 percent gain implied by the clock rate increase.

Which processor isn't clear, though the most likely candidate is a Samsung ARM chip based on the newer Cortex architecture, which adds vector extensions and is much more modern than the 2007-era chip currently used.

It will also likely double the amount of system RAM to 256MB and further speed up the device, Gruber says. Other rumors are now claimed accurate and include a 32GB model, a magnetometer as compass and a 3.2-megapixel camera with autofocusing and video editing. The latter is expected to play a major part in the marketing campaign for the phone.

Accelerating the phone's performance is believed to not only have an impact on obviously CPU-dependent chores such as 3D but also on the perceived speed of Internet access. While faster 3G is increasingly thought a staple of the new iPhone, some of the perceived slowness comes from the processor's inability to cope with rendering HTML once it's downloaded.

Gruber anticipates Apple keeping its prices intact and selling a 16GB iPhone for $199 and a 32GB model for $299.

Besides the key rumors, the writer also claims to have heard less certain prospects of a notebook refresh that splits the line back into plastic MacBook and aluminum MacBook Pro lines as well as a smaller iPhone that would have 75 percent the size of the current model but isn't likely to show at next month's WWDC.

onOne iPhone app controls Canon DSLRs

onOne has submitted a unique new application to the App Store called DSLR Remote. The application will enable the iPhone and iPod Touch to remotely control a variety of Canon's digital SLR cameras. The application works by remotely connecting to a computer running onOne's DSLR Remote Server software that in turn is plugged in through USB.

DSLR Remote will be released in two versions. A Lite version that only controls the shutter; the full Professional version will let photographers control the aperture, shutter speed and white balance. It will also stream the camera's viewfinder to the remote.

Following its approval, DSLR Remote Professional will be available from the App Store for $20, while the Lite version will cost $2. The DSLR Remote Server Software will be available for free from the onOne website.

CrushFTP 4.9.6 adds speed gains, bugfixes

CrushFTP has updated its webserver technology, releasing CrushFTP 4.9.6, improving the overall speed of the software's server and fixing a bug in the software's WebDAV client that crashed Mac OS X 10.5's Finder. SFTP (Secure FTP) connections are faster in version 4.9.6 and directory deletions can be done all at once, instead of line-by-line. In addition to the WedDAV bugfix, there are numerous other fixes in 4.9.6, including a bug with folders that had a double space in them with a FTP proxy, a fix for GUI sizing in the preference window and a repair for problems with Active Directory style domains and usernames.

CrushFTP focuses on ease-of-use in setting up an FTP server, handling numerous security protocols like SFTP, SSH FTP, FTP over SSL and WebDAV/WebDAV SSL. The software offers on-the-fly compression as it transfers files, hence the name "Crush"FTP, and the WebDAV abilities allow for the server to appear as a unique volume on a Mac, allowing for read/write and rename opportunities that would not work in standard FTP within the Finder. CrushFTP includes other conveniences like e-mail notifications, built-in reporting, an OS X widget for quick monitoring and easy-configuration routines for a quick server set-up.

CrushFTP 4.9.6 works with Mac OS X 10.2 or later. It costs $30 for up to 10 concurrent users, $60 for up to 50 users and $100 for limitless users.
