As the hours tick down towards the big September 10th iPhone event, which will play host to the introduction of new wares from Apple, the final preparations are being put into place as the fruit company readies itself for an influx of journalists and other hangers-on.

Oliver Haslam has written about technology for over a decade. His work has been published in print at Macworld and online pretty much everywhere else. If it plugs in or has a battery, it's fair game.
OK, it's been a pretty big day for Sony already, what with the announcement of the newly announced PS Vita 2013, but the Japanese firm isn't done there. Also announced today, the PS Vita TV is much more than it may first seem, and it's going to cost around $100 to buy, too.
It may be unadulterated chaos at times, but there's little doubt that iPhone announcement weeks are some of the most exciting and interesting that we face. A culmination of weeks and often months of guessing, calculating and wishing always comes down to one glorious moment when we get to see a new iPhone for the first time.
Developer Winocm has successfully managed to jailbreak iOS 6.1.4 on both CDMA and GSM version of iPhone 5. Details as usual are scarce at this very moment, it is highly recommended that you ignore any update at this point for your iOS device and wait for further confirmation on the progress being made on this untethered jailbreak for 6.1.4.
If you ever wondered why your memory seems to be getting worse, then according to one South Korean doctor the reason may just be that smartphone you're so attached to.
Users of iPhones come in all shapes and sizes, but when you find a proper hardcore fan of Apple's smartphone then the chances are pretty good that they're also rather keen on a spot of science fiction. We'd have to count ourselves firmly in that category, and we'd definitely argue that it's no bad thing.
Samsung announced the latest version of its largest smartphone at IFA yesterday, and the Galaxy Note 3 is sure to be popular amongst both those that want to carry a mini-tablet around 24/7 and anyone who tends to turn into a big green superhero when they're mad. If you happen to fit snugly into either of those categories, then the chances are you're already we clued up on what the third generation of Galaxy Note can offer you, but if you're on the fence then you'll be on the lookout for all the information you can get.
A leaked document has pegged a iOS 7 download and release date, along with that of iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C smartphones around third week of September, a date that makes sense based on prior years' release schedules.
Nokia is in between a big transition and in the process of being fully acquired by Microsoft over the coming days, but that isn't stopping its German arm from having a bit of run on the way down.
With so many third party Web browsers available on the iOS App Store, and one of those being the ever popular and constantly improving Google Chrome, Safari is leading something of a charmed life for many iOS users. In fact, if it wasn't for the inability to change the default browser on non-jailbroken devices, it's arguable whether some of us would ever use Safari on iOS at all.
