iPhone fanatic and Mac lover !
Apples CEO Steve Jobs is all set to kick off his WWDC 10 keynote address in about an hour from now at San Francisco’s Moscone Center. The conference will mainly focus on iPhone development, iPhone OS 4, and the unveiling of the 4th-gen iPhone. Final version of OS X 10.6.4, Cloud based iTunes.com, Mac Mini, MacBook Air, Mac Pro refresh, iPad OS 3.3 / 3.2.1, Safari 5 and free version of MobileMe are some of the other things that we expect Apple to announce at the event.
We have already seen iPad installed in the cars, and how airlines are thinking about adopting it as an inflight entertainment system for its passengers in the skies. And now a restaurant owner in Australia has found another use of iPad – to replace printed menus in restaurants with iPad-based interactive menu cards !
We have already seen how easy it is for a two-year old kid to use an Apple iPad. We have also seen cats playing with the iPad. But this dog named Pixel has topped them all. He has not only shown how easy it is by playing Air Hockey on the iPad, but has also managed to win the match in the end. Video after the break.
After all the success of ReelDirector on iPhone 3GS, the app which was features as the best on Apple’s Rewind 2009 list has finally arrived on the iPad. ReelDirector makes it extremely simple to create, edit and share movie clips right on your iPhone and iPad. You can use the drag-and-drop timeline, multiple text watermark styles, and up to 28 pro grade transitions that will turn your scattered video clips into polished movies in just minutes.
iWebcamera app for iPhone can turn your iPhone into a real working webcam. You can use it to connect to applications like Skype, Windows Live Messenger, YouTube and any other app which supports webcam feature. This app is currently compatible to work on Windows PCs only. Support for Mac might come sometime in future.
We have been seeing that every time a new iPhone is released, the price tag of the previous-gen model drops down drastically. When iPhone 3GS came out, 3G price was dropped to $99. And now according to fresh reports Walmart as of today has officially dropped iPhone 3GS price down to just US $97 on two years contract. Apple has also stopped shipping the iPhone 3G 8GB units to AT&T stores and further orders are not being taken anymore. This, if anything, are clear signs of the arrival of new iPhone, the iPhone 4G / HD.
This is now becoming a norm isn't it? Some new pictures of the next iPhone are now floating around the web sphere, showing the metal frame which Apple has used to house the main interior components of this high profile gadget. This is basically that middle unibody piece which will have glass (or plastic) top on each side.
We have already seen lots of evidence related to video calling/conferencing feature in both iPhone OS 4 betas and iPad OS 3.2. And now screenshots from a field test firmware on iPhone 4G / HD has surfaced which confirms this even more! According to the source, these were taken during video calling field test on the next iPhone.
After the popularity of the “White” iPhone 4G renderer, the design geniuses is back with more mockups which ads “color” to the original. These stunning renderings are again based on the lost iPhone 4G / HD, and are inspired by the leaked white front panel of the next-gen iPhone which suggested that Apple might be offering the 4th-gen iPhone in both white and black color models full around to the front panel.
