As JG mentioned yesterday, rumors are floating about talks between Verizon and Apple. AT&T just might be losing exclusive rights to their major breadwinner.

But, it seems more and more as though if the deal does go through that we won’t be looking at the exact same iPhone just marketed through a different carrier. All that nasty exclusivity confusion and all that. We are hearing whispers of an iPhone Lite for one, by one person who claims to have seen a prototype of the device. The iPhone Lite is obviously similar to its big brother, just more compact and less expensive. My…a cheaper iPhone. Somehow I think the people just may like that part.

Intel and Adobe announced today they are collaborating on optimizing Adobe’s Flash and Intel’s media center CE 3100 processor. The two companies are moving to bring the wealth of Flash content to TVs both in standard and high definition. This is a good move for both companies and will pave the way for quick adoption.

Intel’s new CE3100 is the first of a family of SOCs, System on a Chip. These chips hope to power tomorrows set-top boxes, Blu-ray players, even in the TV itself. Intel is working to ensure these devices offer a seamless internet experience to their users.
