Apple's iPad and iPhone have really taken the gaming world by storm since their inception. Bringing touch based gaming to the masses, and opening up new avenues of innovation for independent developers and established gaming companies alike, Apple's iOS-based devices have changed the gaming landscape forever.

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.
Its been ages since cellphone users have been able to set custom ringtones on their handsets, but Apple on the other hand has been steadfast in their belief that they only have strong control over what we listen to whenever someone calls in our on our iPhone. While other platforms have really offer a handful of ringtones to choose from. Remember when all Nokia handsets had that one ringtone? Yeah, it's like that.
With Apple's iPhone being a device that we carry around pretty much 24/7, we often want to share web content with each other, and thanks to the App Store, there are more than a few good ways to do just that.
Apple has today quietly released a new addition to the iMac line, with the aim of the game clearly to bring an affordable iMac to the table - a table that you must be in education in order to sit at.
You know the feeling - you've just picked up your brand new, shiny iPhone 4 from one of Apple's immaculate stores, but there's something missing, something intangible, but you can't quite put your finger on it. You tap and swipe your way effortlessly around the iOS interface, but it's just not right. It needs something. That's right, it needs more Windows! (No, it doesn't, really)
Another day, another jailbreak tweak. Today's offering is a simple tweak that brings a functionality to the iOS Photos app that some would argue should have been there from day one - the ability to upload photos straight to ImageShack.
We've all done it. You receive an important SMS, usually a shopping list from your wife and you dare not ask what you're supposed to be picking up for the second time. Problem is, you got a little swipe-happy and deleted it. It's gone, gone for good. Well, not quite.
BlackBerry and Android smartphones have one redeeming feature. No, it's not that keyboard that everyone seems to love so, nor is it BlackBerry Messenger or Gtalk, the instant messaging system reserved for those unfortunate enough to be at RIM's and Google’s every beck and call.
Oh those jailbreakers, they really do seem to have an answer for all of life's little irritations, don't they? The latest rage-inducing occurrence to receive the jailbreak treatment, is the ungodly situation we all find ourselves in on an alarmingly regular basis - you're sitting there, minding your own business and you think you heard something. Was that your phone ringing? Maybe. Maybe not. You just can't tell.
Have you ever sat there, staring at your Facebook stream, Twitter page or Google+ account and thought - 'I wonder how long I actually spend on this web site?’ You know you have.
