The beta release of Apple’s new Messages app for the Mac may have a hidden secret, and it’s one that could make getting files onto an iOS device as easy as 1,2,3. Apple recently made the beta release of its new Messages app available to the public, with the beta tag offering a sign that the app isn’t quite complete just yet. While there will no doubt be visual tweaks as well as under the hood changes, we’re also expecting new features to arrive before the app ships as a part of the new release of OS X – Mountain Lion.

A new app from an independent Android developer may just have the answer to a problem that we’ve all experienced since games began to become truly mobile. With gamers now being able to take part in their favorite pass-time across multiple devices – smartphones and tablets spring to mind initially – the issue of keeping our saved games in sync is a very real one.

Like AirPlay? Now you can use the technology to mirror your entire Mac display onto a television’s screen using an Apple TV! We are huge fans of Apple’s implementation of AirPlay with the Apple TV. For those not familiar with the technology, AirPlay allows anyone with an iOS device and an Apple TV to send video, audio or both over the Wi-Fi network and onto a big screen via the little black box of awesome.

You can’t really call yourself a gamer unless you have sampled the joys of Max Payne. Originally released more years ago than we care to remember – we’re all getting old now, you know! – the game sees ex-DEA and NYPD cop Max Payne seek revenge for the murder of his wife and daughter.

We’ve all been there haven’t we? You get that dreaded phone call that a PC isn’t behaving as it should, and being the family tech support guy it’s your responsibility to get it working again. It’s just one of those things.

Microsoft’s Kinect was originally launched as a novel way of playing games which took the motion control gaming of the Nintendo Wii and made it truly controller-free. Using a camera and microphone, the Kinect changed the way we interact with our Xbox 360s, though whether much more than a novelty or a gimmick remains to be seen.

When Apple first launched the iPhone back in 2007, the world marveled at its all-new touch-based interface and the way the stylus had been consigned to the history books. Even before the App Store came along in a year later, the fledgling jailbreak community showed just what was possible with what amounted to a small computer that nestled happily in your pocket.

Facebook has become such an integral part of our lives that it really does act as a phone book, journal and collection of lives’ little events for many of us, especially if you happen to have grown up with the social network alongside you.

We love us some patents here at RedmondPie, and Apple is one company that just likes to apply for patents as if the fate of the world depended on it. Of course, this being Apple, their patent applications tend to get picked up by the technology press and then picked apart in the hope we find a future product or service hidden in there somewhere!

We love our Macs here at Redmond Pie, and we love the way OS X works. The ease of use blended with subtle power should you desire it makes OS X the best choice in our minds, though that’s another argument for a different day.

We all know the smartphone camp is split heavily between the users of Apple’s iOS, and the more open Android OS from Google. It’s a matter of opinion as to which is the way to go for many, but of you’re actually a fan of iOS and have an Android phone, or you just like to play around, then this new Android app may just be the thing for you. ‘Fake iPhone 4S’ does exactly what it says on the tin, and by making itself appear just like the iOS some of us have come to love, the app certainly makes for interesting viewing.
