0:00.0	This is Mac OSKinn.
0:09.0	An iPhone rumor out of Germany, support for strong iPhone 6 sales, and leaving
0:18.7	text messages in the Wald Garden. It's Thursday, May 15, 2014. I'm Ken Ray and this is news from
0:27.6	Maco-S-Ken brought to you by yours truly and supported by I.Chard magazine, putting Apple and Tech News in focus
0:37.0	EY E.E. E.E. E. E. E.S. newsstand now.
0:43.0	Of an on since the release of the iPhone 5S, it seems, analysts have had this idea that they floated.
0:50.0	Apple's going to release two iPhones in 2014, one in August, and another later in the year.

1:59.4	iPhones around the same time of year the last few iPhones have been released.

2:10.0	analysts are seeing signs in the supply chain that Apple is expecting the next iPhone
2:14.6	to blow the doors off in terms of demand. The indication seems to be that the
2:20.0	anticipated bigger screen will bring people running but they're talking
2:23.9	about lots of people. Morgan Stanley's Huberty thinks iPhone six sales
2:28.6	could best demand for last year's iPhone 5s launch by as much as 20% based on activity in the supply chain.
