Just a week since the 3rd generation iPad debut and the Internet is abuzz with iPhone 5 rumors. The new iPad features have left everyone speculating as to the features and functionality in the next-gen iPhone, slated for release in Fall 2012.

Last week I shared my incredible experience of mobile checkout at Sephora. In line with the subject, Square (which lets you accept payments on your smartphone via an external dongle) launched today a new Card Case payment system that turns your phone into a mobile wallet.

The Starbucks Mobile App replaces card payment!  Everyone’s got their favorite coffee. Whether you’re a Dunkin’ Donuts’ lover, a sucker for MUD or if you’re an Oren’s Daily Roast regular, you take your coffee seriously and are devout to one company’s “Joe”.

That being said, Starbucks promises to give coffee purchaser’s such an edge, I guarantee all of you non-believers give them another shot. This has nothing to do with writing the names on the cups, the actual flavor of the stuff or even more ridiculously named cup sizes.

The iPhone 5 is rumored to have NFC… is it true?  We chime in! 

Developments in modern technology never cease to amaze me. This is even truer when those developments allow for the progressive elimination of all that is cumbersome and excessive with current technology.
