NEW YORK, November 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --

Bloomberg reports Apple Inc.(NASDAQ:AAPL) plans to release iPhones featuring 4.7" and 5.5" displays, as well as "glass that curves downward at the edges," in 2H14.

There have been plenty of reports indicating Apple is looking to offer one or more iPhones with a larger display next year, as it tries to address soaring demand for phones with larger displays. Demand for such phones, along with a mix shift towards cheaper smartphones, has been pressuring Apple's European and Asian smartphone shares.
Samsung and LG both recently unveiled phones with curved (OLED) screens, but initial volumes have been limited. Proponents of the idea have argued a curved large-screen phone is easier to grip, and offers a greater field of view. Samsung (SSNLF, SSNGY) says it plans to offer phones with foldable displays in about two years. The inclusion of haptic feedback tech within future iPhone would be a positive for haptic IP developer Immersion (IMMR). Immersion's shares once took off on a rumor (proven unfounded) the 3rd-gen iPad would feature haptic tech developed by Finland's Senseg.
The U.S. government is seeking the maximum penalty allowed under the law from Bank of America Corp (NYSE:BAC) in connection with a Countrywide loan program dubbed "Hustle." As its name implies, the program was designed "to speed the production and sale of loans to mortgage-finance firms Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac," WSJ says. "The nature and circumstances of Defendants' conduct demonstrates an unyielding and brazen arrogance," a court filing alleges. The government wants $864M in penalties.
