Rumors mills are also churning out details confidently declaring that the Xbox 360 successor will also see the light of day before June's big E3 gaming show in Los Angeles.
Perhaps the biggest news? Both consoles could make their debuts -- gasp -- this year. That's a hyperspeed acceleration in … Read more

Dear Rumor fans,
Don't cry for me, readers, just because I am moving away from you and my partner in rumor sleuthing, Karyne Levy, to voluntarily shovel snow in Massachusetts for the rest of my life.
OK, cry a little bit (aww shucks, guys, I'm going to miss you, too!) but then dry those tears and rejoice because Rumor Has It is continuing on without me. And it's going to grow and change and highlight all the amazing talent CNET has to offer and make me so proud.
The concept for Rumor Has It popped into my … Read more
It's looking to be a banner year for tech fans.
We're just two months into 2013, and we already have a long list of hotly anticipated products due by the end of the year -- everything from the PlayStation 4 to the upstart Ouya game console to the Razer Edge. And that doesn't even include the rumored (but likely) products such as the next Xbox or the new iPhone, or the more ephemeral "iWatch."
Since we originally created this list on February 8, we've added some new entries to the list based on your … Read more

We're back from CES, and getting right back into the swing of the rumor mill.
This week, rumors of a 4.8-inch iPhone "Math" (say, what?) have been swirling, but we're blaming it on a bad translation. Also, Microsoft might be desperate to save the PC, YouTube might be eyeing music video site Vevo, and Sony's vice president of home entertainment hints at something that really made Karyne's day. We bet you can guess what it is (hint: read the headline of this post).
