iPhone 5,1 and iPad 3,3 make first appearances in iOS 5.1
iPhone 5 and more iPad 3 show in iOS 5.1 beta
More discoveries in the iOS 5.1 beta have found Apple’s first reference to the 2012 iPhone and to more 2012 iPad developments. Filippo Bigarella has shown a reference to an “iPhone 5,1″ in the beta code. As with past models, the next iPhone is being considered a major revision rather than a minor upgrade.
Also mentioned was “iPad 3,3.” While iPad 3,2 was already known, it points to Apple possibly having the same three-model iteration as it does now, where one core Wi-Fi version exists along with two cellular editions. With the iPhone 4S now dual-mode, it’s possible the split won’t be between EVDO and HSPA but instead between 3G and 4G.
Presences in code can still leave several months or more before releases, and occasionally don’t lead to products at all. With the iPhone already showing up, though, it’s more likely that Apple is aiming to bring the 2012 iPhone release back towards the summer rather than repeat the move to a fall update.

Best Buy Closing 15 January – Sale Begins
Earlier this month, it was confirmed by Carphone Warehouse that all 11 Best Buy stores in the UK would be closing permanently. Now in an open letter on the Best Buy website, the company has revealed when those closures will take place.
Both the physical stores and the UK version of the Best Buy website will cease trading on 15 January
“We’ve loved bringing our passion for the latest and greatest technology to Britain over the past 2 years, and have always had the utmost appreciation, respect, and commitment to the entire UK marketplace, our customers and stakeholders,” Steve Jensen, MD of Best Buy UK said.
Best Buy Europe was formed back in 2008 when Best Buy paid £1.1 billion for 50 per cent in Carphone Warehouse’s retail division. The first Best Buy Europe store opened in the UK just 18 months ago, in April 2010.
While the closure will be bad news for the 1,100 employees, the closure does at least bring good news for bargain hunters. Best Buy UK are offering a wide range of discounts from 10 per cent up to 50 per cent off a range of products as part of its closing down sale.
The largest discounts are limited to DVDs, Blu-rays and CDs but there are other discounts with 10 per cent off the likes of MP3 players and other hardware and 25 per cent off AV equipment.
