On Friday, a rumor broke that the next iPhone will be called the iPhone 4S and it will primarily retain the same form factor with a few minor cosmetic changes and some new interior parts.

Now today, GadgetsDNA posted a photo of a case purportedly for the iPhone 5, which shows a re-located camera flash.

Besides the camera flash, the case also shows a much thinner bezel. However as MacRumors points out, the manufacturers matching current case for the iPhone 4 also has a thin bezel, so that can’t necessarily be taken as sign that the “iPhone 5″ will have a thinner bezel. If this case is correct, its “iPhone 5″ attribution is likely nothing more than a guess or easy identifier by the manufacturer. Jeffries & Co. analyst Peter Misek claimed Friday that the fifth-generation iPhone that will debut this fall will be called the iPhone 4S.

The image of the “iPhone 5″ case showed up on Asian parts supplier site Alibaba. Other cases from manufacturers have shown up on the site purporting to be for future models of iOS devices and they have ended up being correct. Usually when a manufacturer is able to build proper cases for unannounced Apple products, they have gotten the dimensions and specs of the upcoming products from people at Asian manufacturers such as Foxconn. As always, there is no way of telling if this case represents the next iPhone Apple will launch, but it wouldn’t be the first time case manufacturers stole a bit of Apple’s thunder.

An e-book reader, more commonly called eReader, is an electronic device that is designed primarily for the purpose of reading digital books and periodicals and uses e-ink technology to display content to its readers. Simply put, it’s a portable device that allows you to upload numerous e-books in one gadget so you can basically stash a dozen or so of your favorite reads in one slim and handy gadget.

eReaders are perfect for people who love to read; but since an eReader has several other features, it’s best to focus on these to find out which features are appropriate for your needs before you head out and buy yourself the first one you like.

In the first place, consider the screen of the device. Most eReaders use a low power black and white technology called E Ink when rendering pages on their screens, for you to have the sensation of holding and reading a real book. The downside of this is that pages take long to refresh and it’s not backlit so you basically still have to use a reading lamp. So if you intend to do more than just read, let’s say for instance you want to use your gadget to surf the net, you might as well choose something that has an LCD display, like an iPad.

And what if you need to take down notes in the midst of your reading? In that case, it would be a great idea to choose an eReader that has touch screen functionality. Another factor to be considered is the type of connectivity you need. Ask yourself whether you’ll be downloading stuff onto your computer (eBooks, newspapers…) and choose the most appropriate Internet access, be it Wi-Fi or 3G.

Indeed, there are a number of things you need to keep in mind when looking for the best eReader. If all things mentioned above plus some other extras are thrown in on the device you’re eyeing, then you definitely hit the spot!
