Taking the stage at WWDC2010, Jobs demonstrated the redesigned iPhone - a device with a very high quality display, front and rear facing cameras - the front facing for video conferencing and the rear facing 5 megapixel for photos and HD video recording. The phone will run the next incarnation of the iPhone OS, iOS4, and is to be released on June 24 through AT&T.

Barely two weeks after releasing Security Update 2010-002, Apple has released a small security update that addresses a single critical vulnerability in Apple Type Service (ATS).
