Following the leaks, Microsoft decided to officially take the wraps off the new title for Project Natal, which is now dubbed as “Kinect” for Xbox 360 ahead of their E3 media event. If you have been living under a rock or something and don’t know what it is all about: Kinect for Xbox 360 (formerly Project Natal) introduces controller-free gaming with which you take full control of the games by simply moving around, jumping, punching and kicking or whatever you feel like doing. It will detect almost anything you do! You can even move through the beautiful interface by swiping your hands back and forth ala Minority Report style!

At this year’s WWDC 10, Apple not only unveiled iPhone 4, but also released iOS 4 GM candidate (formerly iPhone OS 4) for developers registered on iPhone Developer Standard or Enterprise program. iOS 4 is fully supported on iPhone 3GS and iPod touch 3rd gen. iPhone 3G and iPod touch 2nd gen will be able to run this version of OS too but without multitasking and background wallpapers (unless you know where to look for it). Both the first-gen iPhone and iPod touch is not supported. An iPad version of iOS 4 is expected to be out by this fall.
On the eve of the biggest sports event of the year, Microsoft has released a 2010 FIFA World Cup theme for Windows 7 which includes 10 amazing high-resolution wallpapers to decorate your desktop with a resolution of up to 1920 × 1200 (HD quality). Theme is based on the latest EA SPORTS’ official 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa game for Windows.
Folks over at iLounge have posted complete video walkthrough of the new iPhone 4 running iOS 4. This has to be the most complete video that I have seen which covers everything from multitasking, iBooks, iMovie, FaceTime video calling to creating folders and more. The only downside is the lack of any audio, which is missing for the most part in the video. So make sure you turn on some music while watching the video.
Yes you read that right ! AppSync for iOS 4.0 (formerly iPhone OS 4) is now available for all those of you who have managed to jailbreak your iPhones and iPod touches. For those of you who don't know, AppSync patches MobileInstallation file on iOS which is needed in order to install .ipa files manually without using iTunes.
The latest version of Redsn0w brings full support to enable multitasking and wallpapers on both iPhone 3G, and iPod touch 2G, running iOS 4 which otherwise are disabled by Apple, citing performance issues. We have already posted full detailed guides on how-to enable multitasking and wallpapers support on iPhone 3G and iPod touch 2G manually. If those guides are too long or complex for you, you can now use the latest version of redsn0w which gives you a one-click option to enable these options with ease.
We did inform you about PwnageTool bundles which were released yesterday to jailbreak iPhone 3GS on iOS 4.0 (formerly iPhone OS 4), while preserving your baseband on the older 05.11.07 or 04.26.08 so that you can unlock it using ultrasn0w or blacksn0w. We got lots requests via twitter, facebook and email for full instructions on how to patch the existing version of PwnageTool so that it can work with iOS 4.0 GM release. And so here are the complete set of instructions for you to get it to work.
The GM (Gold Master) release of iOS 4 for iPhone 3GS, 3G and iPod touch 3G, 2G has made its way on the popular file sharing and torrent sites. Unlike all the previous Betas, this release actually doesn't require registered UDID, and you can restore it on a Windows machine too but it will be pointless as for activation, you will still need iTunes 9.2 Beta which is currently only available for registered developers on Macs.
Apple has seeded iTunes 9.2 beta, along with iOS 4 GM (pre-release) for iPhone 3GS, 3G and iPod touch via Apple Developer Connection. This release is strictly for testing purposes and is currently available for Mac OS X only.
Remember that scoop on American Beauty director Sam Mendes directing commercial for Apple iPhone 4? Well that rumor was true after all. Apple today at WWDC 10 showed off the new iPhone 4 with iOS 4 commercial which features video calling via iChat, along with 3.5’’ OLED screen, 960x640 pixel screen resolution, 5 megapixel camera with Xenon flash and lots more.
