Rumor: AT&T Document could show Street Date for new iPhone 7 Could be Sept. 23rd

Despite some recent rumors pointing at an earlier launch, the "iPhone 7" could end shipping as late as Sept. 23 — well after an expected Sept. 7 press event, a leaked AT&T schedule suggests.

The carrier's outlets are due for two "merchandising resets" next month, according to the document, posted on Tuesday by 9to5Mac. The first is on Sept. 9 — when iPhone preorders might begin — while the second is on Sept. 23.

Those dates could be coincidental but would be roughly consistent with the launch of 2015's iPhone 6s, which started preorders on Sept. 12, and only shipped on Sept. 25.

They do conflict with an earlier claim that the "iPhone 7" will ship on Sept. 16. The iPhone 6 arrived on a similarly tight schedule — while preorders began on Sept. 12, 2014, units appeared on shelves and doorsteps just a week later.

The "iPhone 7" is rumored to be another interim update for Apple, at least in terms of design, mostly adding faster processors and better cameras to its 4.7- and 5.5-inch formats. The bigger "Plus" model should have a dual-lens camera, however, and/or a Smart Connector. Both models are likely to omit 3.5-millimeter headphone jacks, but gain more storage and pressure-sensitive home buttons.

Pokemon NO – Michigan Couple Sues Maker

PokemonGoLogoFor those who play Pokemon GO, it can be a positive experience.  But for one couple living in Saint Clair Shores, Michigan those experiences have had a negative effect.

The couple has filed a class action lawsuit against the makers of the game, claiming that a park that's across the street from their home is a designated 'Pokemon Stop' or also called 'Pokemon Gym' where users of the game can come to capture a Pokemon character.

In the lawsuit, the couple claims that the game has become an invasion of privacy because some players are not only coming on their property to capture Pokemon characters, but also peering through their windows at their home, ruining their landscape, and some players are also cursing at them if the couple asks a player to move their car.

Before filing this lawsuit, the couple claims that they had contacted the makers of the game asking them to remove (opted-out) their location, but have only gotten back generic responses or no response at all.

This is not the first time that the game maker has gotten sued over the game.
