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.
Another day, another iPhone 5 rumor. It is being said that iPhone 5 will feature the much-discussed 4-inch screen and that we'll see it released before June 30th. The reasons? Well, let me explain.
Apple's iPad 2 has caused a real stir in the tech community, nowhere more so than Apple's tablet competitors. Now Samsung has announced their new Galaxy Tab 8.9 and a redesigned 10.1 today, complete with iPad 2-like thin-ness.
The iPhone 5 rumor merry-go-round is in full effect and now even a Chinese financial newspaper is getting in on the action. BGR reports that China Times is claiming that Apple's iPhone 5 is currently in trial production and is on course for a release in the third quarter of 2011.
Apple's iPad 2 is magical (and revolutionary!) in a few ways, and its 21 magnets are one of them. Built right into the iPad's body, the magnets are there for the intriguing Smart Cover, which clips into place and auto-aligns as if by, you guessed it, magic. If only we could use the same Smart Cover with the original iPad.
News out of ZDNet today brings the possibility Microsoft could be ready to release the next generation Xbox in 2015.
Cydia, the App Store for jailbroken iDevices has never been the quickest app out there, with long delays in pulling data from its servers. Now though, developer Jay 'Saurik' Freeman has given the app a speed boost.
It's a headline we didn't expect to be writing, but sure enough it's true. One clever hacker has found a way to get the Xbox Kinect to work with Sony's PS3.
When George 'Geohot' Hotz first starting jailbreaking the Sony PlayStation 3, we're sure the hacker didn't expect the circus that now surrounds both him and the civil lawsuit brought by Sony.
Interesting goings-on over in AT&T land today, with the US carrier seemingly going after jailbreaking iPhone users.
