According to Bloomberg, Apple is reportedly working on a cheaper iPhone model to combat Android Smartphones. iPhone Nano, as we’ll call it for now, is aimed at helping Apple grab more market share. iPhone Nano price could be around $200 without any contracts and release date could be as near as this summer. As Bloomberg quotes:

Apple Inc. is working on new versions of the iPhone that are aimed at slowing the advance of competing handsets based on Google Inc.’s Android software, according to people who have been briefed on the plans.

Apple has considered selling the new iPhone for about $200, without obligating users to sign a two-year service contract, said the person who has seen it.

If the rumor is to be believed, we’ll soon be sighting iPhone Nano, 3-times smaller than iPhone 4 in size. Let’s see if the rumors comes true.

Soon after announcement of Verizon iPhone 4, many of you would be wondering whether limera1n exploit will jailbreak Verizon iPhone 4 and will there be jailbreak for iOS 4.2.5. While there can be no certain point unless the VZW iPhone is released on February 10, however, there is every possibility that limera1n exploit may not work. Following points are crucial in this regard:

New Hardware:

Verizon iPhone comes with hardware changes. There’s new antenna, revised hardware buttons and there’s possibility that Apple may have patched the limera1n exploit, that was introduced by GeoHot in October 2010.

iOS 4.2.5:

To add support for HotSpot, Verizon iPhone runs on updated iOS 4.2.5. Currently there’s no untethered iOS 4.2.1 jailbreak, redsn0w 0.9.7 beta 6 offers a workaround that required iOS 4.2 Beta 3 IPSW. Another iOS update could be harder to crack.

We’ll have to wait and see whether any of limera1n or SHAtter exploit works to jailbreak VZW iPhone 4 iOS 4.2.5.
