Sony ILCE-5000 Listed By Indonesian Agency

Sony ILCE 5000 Listed By Indonesian AgencyWe’ve been hearing about how Sony has created a new camera category where the models will fall under the “ILCE” moniker, and so far we have seen devices like the ILCE-7, and ILCE-3000. Well it turns out that Sony has more models planned and one of them will be the ILCE-5000, at least that’s according to an Indonesian agency, Postel, who revealed the device in one of their listings. According to Sony Alpha Rumors, the ILCE-5000 is allegedly a more advanced version of the Sony A3000, but other than that the full specifications of the camera remain unknown.

Sony has since removed the entry which could mean that either the entry is real and Sony just doesn’t want the cat let out of the bag yet, or it could have been made in error hence the removal. Either way we’ll be keeping our eyes peeled for more ILCE-5000 sightings in the future, so be sure to check back with us at a later date for more updates! In the meantime if the ILCE-5000 is indeed am ore advanced version of the Sony A3000, what sort of specs or features do you think it might pack under its hood?

    Alleged Nexus 5 Caught On Camera

    Alleged Nexus 5 Caught On CameraWe’ve been hearing rumors about the upcoming Google Nexus 5 for a while now, with the first “real” sighting of the device spotted during Google’s unveiling of the Android 4.4 KitKat statue. We’ve also seen benchmarks of the device leaked, but now thanks to a photo uploaded onto the MacRumors forum, we might have a clearer look at the Nexus 5, assuming of course that the image above is not a fake and is the real deal. Based on what we have seen in the past, this image of the handset does look real and pretty much similar to previous sightings, thus corroborating the rumors ever so slightly.

    The full specifications of the alleged device remain unofficial for now, but the rumors are saying that we can look forward to a Full HD 5” display, and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 chipset with 8GB of RAM, and 16GB of onboard storage, an 8MP rear-facing camera, and presumably will run on Android 4.4 KitKat. Since none of this is official, take it with a grain of salt for now. However we are in the month of October which is when Google last launched their previous Nexus device, so it has been heavily speculated that this is the month Google could unveil the Nexus 5 as well, so stay tuned for more updates!

    Student Loan Defaults Surge To Highest Level In Nearly 2 Decades

    Recent college students are defaulting on federal loans at the highest rate in nearly two decades, reflecting “crisis” levels of student debt and a lackluster economy that leaves graduates with bleak employment prospects.

    One in 10 recent borrowers defaulted on their federal student loans within the first two years, the highest default rate since 1995, according to annual figures made public Monday by the Department of Education.

    A separate gauge, measuring defaults occurring within the first three years of required payments, showed that more than one in seven borrowers with federal student loans went into default, an event that can trigger invasive debt-collection methods that include fees, wage garnishments, and withheld IRS tax refunds.

    LeBron Not Talking 2014 Free Agency, Says He’s ‘Better Basketball Player’ Than Last Season

    MIAMI (AP) — LeBron James is not saying much of anything about next season. The second edition of “The Decision” is still nine months away, and the four-time NBA MVP is all too aware of the already-incessant buzz about what uniform he will be wearing a year from now.

    He’s not interested in talking about that.

    There’s more important matters to tend to first, he said Monday, on the eve of the formal start to his fourth training camp with the Miami Heat. And in between getting married, taking some time off and globetrotting about tending to business interests this summer, James offered the following assessment of his basketball abilities since he was last seen carrying his team to a win in Game 7 of the NBA Finals:
