If you're a regular reader of this site, you're probably aware that Apple's WWDC will take place next week, starting on Monday, June 6th. Apple is now dressing up the Moscone Center, a convention center where the conference will take place.
We're just days away from this year's Apple Worldwide Developers Conference and as usual the rumor-mill is in full swing. Apple has already confirmed iOS 5 and Mac OS X Lion will be shown off at the event's keynote address, along with the much anticipated iCloud service, whatever that may turn out to be. But now we have a whole new rumor, and we like it. We like it a lot!
iWork, Apple's productivity suite for Mac and iPad has now made its debut on the iPhone and iPod touch. All three programs: Pages, Numbers and Keynote are available on the smaller devices as of today.
In a press, release, Apple confirmed that an iCloud service will be unveiled at WWDC on Monday, June 6th, as well as iOS 5 and Mac OS X Lion, the company's next-generation computer operating system. Yes folks, no new iPhone hardware is going to be released this time around.
Well well well, the whole Apple Vs. Samsung legal debacle just took a turn for the down right strange. According to ThisIsMyNext's Nilay Patel, Samsung's lawyers have asked courts to order Apple to hand over the company's latest iPhone 5 and iPad 3 prototypes so they can check their own hardware doesn't mirror that of hardware coming from Cupertino any time soon.
The iPhoneIslam team, which has previously authored FaceIt3GS, has come up with a new hack which will blow your mind: full calling and SMS support on the 3G iPad.
We at Redmond Pie are all Google Chrome fans - we just love that silky smooth feel while all the time knowing that beneath that cool exterior is an HTML5 beast just waiting to rip our collective faces off. We also like Mobile Safari on our iPads, but we'd still prefer if Google brought their ever popular desktop webpage viewing magic-bearer to our favorite tablet.
Yesterday, we reported on Fei Lam, the teenager who got sued by Apple for owning a website that sold white iPhone 4 parts. In light of the lawsuit, Fast Company was able to interview him via, weirdly enough, instant messaging. While he was shy the whole time, and refused to comment on many aspects of his lawsuit and his net worth, I think the interview did show what it must be like to be in the guy's shoes.
Last week, the Mac community was dead scared when the first widespread Mac OS X malware threat, Mac Defender, sometimes also under other names such as Mac Protector or Mac Security, made its way onto the internet. The malware is distributed through ill-designed webpages that claim that the user's Mac has been infected.
One of the factors that points to an imminent release of a product is when ads for it are being made. An alleged post on Craigslist regarding a cast call for an "iPhone 5" ad was posted and pulled within two hours, but thankfully still indexed by a few search engines and screen captured by some users. Is a new iPhone imminent?
