Great news for International iPad owners. The dedicated on-device iPad App Store for the supported countries is now Live! Hence starting from today, International users will no longer get that annoying “App Store is Not Available in your Country” error.
We have already seen iPads recently getting fixed into different car dashboards. But now, iPad will be moving not only on roads with you, but also into skies with Bluebox Avionics’ new Ai IFE system.
The BTstack Mouse app for iPhone that we demonstrated on iPad last week has been updated to bring support for iPad. This new version brings stability, bug fixes and performance improvements for the new Apple device. The only disappointment about the update is that it still runs in the native iPhone resolution. You can run it in full iPad resolution by using this hack posted here.
We just stumbled upon a video on YouTube by 1938digital in which “fake” Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer reviews the latest revolution of Apple in his very own trademark style. In his review, Ballmer explains why the iPad sucks, and how a new Microsoft Tablet with Windows 7, Windows Mobile, Azure, the Cloud and God knows what else is going to rule this market.
Wi-Fi Sync is now available on Cydia for the jailbroken iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. With Wi-Fi Sync app, you can sync any of your iDevices with iTunes over a Wi-Fi network, just like Microsoft Zune.
Installous 3.1.2 (not the discontinued install0us) has been released and is now available for download via Cydia for jailbroken iDevices. The new version 3.1.2 brings support for iPad, along with a brand new user interface and a download manager which supports multiple files download at once. You’ll need a jailbroken iPhone with firmware 3.x or over in order to install this app. Follow the step by step guide to jailbreak your iPhone 2G, 3G, 3GS, iPod touch and iPad.
MMS was one feature which was missing big time from the original iPhone and iPhone 3G. It was not until Apple released iPhone OS 3.x which brought this feature for the masses. The same now goes for the recently launched iPad 3G as well.
If you have been using an iPad, you would know that currently there’s no proper Facebook app available for the iPad yet. The one which is available in the App Store is for the iPhone and the iPod touch. Yes you can run it on the iPad as well but only in native iPhone’s resolution, or in the pixilated x2 size mode. Seeing this, Sobees has come up with a useful Facebook client app for iPad which in all fairness does the job well.
Apple today has confirmed that they are going to fix the WiFi issue which has been problematic for some iPad users ever since its launch. Users have been complaining about the WiFi connection on iPad doing some crazy things like not letting them join hotspots, and providing weak signal strength and so on. Apple earlier acknowledged the issue and provided some workarounds but that didn't help many.
After it’s heavy sales in the United States alone, the iPad international launch was pushed by one month ahead of the original schedule. But finally, the wait is now over! Customers living in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Spain, Switzerland and UK can now pre-order iPads from the Apple Store online. These pre-ordered iPads will be delivered on Friday, May 28, 2010.
