Comex, developer of the revolutionary JailbreakMe 3.0 tool for iOS 4, has just announced via Twitter that he will soon be interning at Google, just six months after ending his employment with Apple. Some felt the motives behind Apple's hiring of Comex, real name Nicholas Allegra, were to essentially suppress his powers and prevent him from actively jailbreaking, but with Google now on the scene, hopefully he can get back to doing what he does best.
With Apple having announced the date earlier on today for WWDC 2013, we’re bracing ourselves for a marked rise in the number of Apple-related news, rumors and reports. With iOS 6 having failed, in the opinion of many, to bring any dramatic improvements on iOS 5, the concepts and ideas for iOS 7 have been arriving thick and fast. The one you're about to see below, as well as having been presented in a very professional manner, is one of the best iOS 7 concepts yet, and features a radically redesigned interface including a new Notification Center, widget support, and lock screen toggles. Catch the full demonstration video after the break!
Everyone should have access to an Apple Store. It's almost a basic human right - like clean water and McDonald’s. But while most countries have some sort of retail outlet peddling products fresh from Cupertino, not everywhere has an official Apple Store.
WWDC 2013 Dates Set For June 10-14, Tickets On Sale Tomorrow, iOS 7 And OS X 10.9 Beta Launch Likely
Apple has just officially announced that its annual Worldwide Developers Conference, recognized most frequently as WWDC, will be commencing from the week of June 10th, 2013. Usually, WWDC is the occasion for the Cupertino company's major announcements, and with various reports suggesting some major releases this year, products unveiled could range from new iPhones, iPads, Macs, and perhaps even that elusive iWatch.
Rumors pertaining to the fifth-gen iPad have begun heating up over the past few weeks, and the consensus seems to be that the device will take on a similar form factor to that of the iPad mini. Today, a photo purported to illustrate the interior of the rear shell of the "iPad 5" has been released by Tactus, the same company that offered the world a glimpse into the shell of the supposed low-cost iPhone. From the image, it would appear as though the various contours and grooves tie in with earlier such leaks, and although we're reserving full judgment until we encounter some more substantial evidence, it's looking very much like we should begin bracing ourselves for a "large iPad mini." Apart from the alleged iPad 5 exterior shell, a SIM tray has also popped up which is claimed to be of the next-gen iPhone, dubbed the iPhone 5S. More details right after the jump.
German auto manufacturing giant Volkswagen has teamed up with Apple to design a car aptly entitled the 'iBeetle', but those of you hoping this to be the genuine, all-singing, Steve Jobs-endorsed iCar will be sorely disappointed. The renowned automobile engineer has joined forces with the Cupertino tech firm to create a "genuine integrative interface" for the iPhone, allowing both car and handset to harmoniously link together in what the Wolfsburg-based firm describes as Volkswagen Car Net The Beetle.
Popular Apple TV jailbreak tool Seas0nPass has recently been updated to provide a jailbreak for the 2nd generation model running on the very latest 5.2.1 (iOS 6.1.3 - 10B329a) software. Details on where you can download Seas0nPass, as well as how you can apply the jailbreak to your Apple TV 2G, can be found after the break.
You'd think that Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak would be in the know about what the iPhone maker is working on, but apparently not. Speaking at a technology conference in Lithuania, the man affectionately known as 'Woz' said that he doesn't ask Apple insiders what the company has up its sleeve, but he's not worried.
Rumors of a future iPhone 5S release have been popping up on a daily basis over the last few months, with many wondering if there will be anything left to show off when Apple finally unveils the device later this year. The newest purported leak is a picture allegedly depicting the front-facing camera of the upcoming iPhone 5S, along with another unidentified part. More details and images can be found right after the break.
Back last week, we heard how an iPad survived a strange sequence of events which saw it fly from a car roof and embed itself into the bonnet of the vehicle behind. Although it did in fact sustain a great amount of damage, it still worked well enough for the device's owner to be sourced from information found on the device, and if nothing else, was a great advert for the market-leading tablet's durability credentials. Today, a video circulating around the blogosphere once again appears to reiterate what a tough cookie the Cupertino slate is, having survived a foul softball hit with apparently no damage whatsoever.
