Sprint has rolled out a new Family Share Pack and unlimited $60 individual plan after killing off their "Framily" campaign because it was too complicated for customers to understand, but T-Mobile said it is not enough in another hilarious press release. The UnCarrier is urging its customers to rescue their friends from Sprint by offering unlimited data on its LTE network for one-year.

T-Mobile says "Sprint’s customers have suffered much," and that their friends should throw them a lifeline so they no longer have to endure the carrier's dysfunctional Framily and "bad deals".

“It continues to amaze me to see the old carriers failing to listen to their customers−or reward them for their loyalty,” said John Legere, president and CEO of T-Mobile. “That arrogance and indifference has defined the U.S. wireless industry for too long. We’re changing all that. In fact, this entire Un-carrier consumer movement is built on the simple act of listening to customers.”

Walmart has kicked off a 90 day fire sale for the iPhone 5c giving credence to previous rumors that the handset did not sell as well as Apple had hoped it would. The sale is also a sign that Apple is preparing to announce its next generation iPhone very soon.

The unapologetically plastic handset is now available for only $0.97 at Walmart retail locations. Walmart has also dropped the price of the iPhone 5s from $99 to $79. These prices are for the 16GB models and require a new two-year contract with AT&T, Verizon, Sprint or US Cellular. You can use Walmart's "Find a Store" feature to see if your local store is carrying the device.

Vine has become an important social justice tool now that it has cleaned up its image by eliminating porn. For example, the social video service has been one of the major weapons utilized by protesters in Ferguson, Mo. during the Mike Brown demonstrations. This is why it is important that Vine just updated its app to make it easier to share videos on social media. The Vine app offers users a quick way to shoot and upload videos, which is important for capturing unexpected events. To make things even easier, users can now import existing videos from their camera roll so they can share them with other Vine users. The new feature supports slow motion video and allows users to mix previously recorded videos together.

The Vine app has also been updated with new editing tools which can be found by tapping the scissors icon on the preview screen. From here users can mute audio and access the one-touch preview and undo button. Other new features include a new grid mode, focus lock, ghost mode and torch mode that allows you to shoot in low light situations. You can learn more about all the new features on the Vine blog.

Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) shares closed at an all-time high of $100.53 on Tuesday following positive reports from Morgan Stanley and RBC Capital Markets analysts. The previous all-time closing high was $702.10, which, after the 7-to-1 stock split, adjusts to $100.30.

In a note to investors obtained by AppleInsider, Morgan Stanley analyst Katy Huberty gave a strong endorsement to Apple. Most of her optimism derives from the large amount of sales she expects the iPhone 6 and the iWatch to generate. Coupled with this, she believes both products will have stronger margins than previous products, specifically the iPhone 5. She expects the iWatch to ship 41 million units in its

It is that time of year when Apple news turns into Apple gossip, and there was a lot of gossip the last few days. GeekBar today (via G4Games) posted an alleged image of an iPhone 6 logic board that shows a Qualcomm MDM9625 modem. This means previous rumors claiming that the iPhone 6 will support LTE Category 6 are untrue, if the image is legit. The pictured chipset does support LTE Cat.4 and can reach speeds up to 150 Mbps, but not 300 Mbps like previous reports have suggested. This is not a big deal since most carriers around the world do not even support LTE Advanced.

Yesterday Sonny Dickson posted a video showing off the rumored Lightning cable with fully reversible USB. Several sources claim that all of Apple's next-generation products will ship with the new, easier to use cable. Check out the video below.
