Apple is a great example of a company refusing to rest on its laurels. Despite dominating in a variety of markets, Tim Cook and Co. are always looking to revolutionize aspects of the world through the technological looking glass.
According to research carried out by mobile app monitoring company Crittercism, iOS apps crash on a more frequent basis than those of its Google-created Android counterpart.
It's becoming ever increasingly difficult to keep up with who is involved in litigation against who in the mobile smartphone industry. In the last few months Apple and Samsung have been at war against each other, and it was only this morning that a German court ruled in favor of Motorola Mobility in a separate patent case against Apple.
Just days after a German court ruled in favor of Apple in a patent infringement case against Samsung and the Galaxy Tab 10.1, a Mannheim court has swayed in the opposite direction and ruled against Apple in a separate suit involving Motorola Mobility. A previous preliminary ruling by the Independent Trades Commission had judged that Apple didn't have a case to answer in relation to Motorola's claims that the company has infringed upon their patents which are related to 3G connectivity.
I know you're thinking that every time you open Cydia and refresh the repositories; there is another tweak added which offers a set of custom commands for Siri. Well, to be honest; you would be right in thinking that, but that doesn't mean that another player in the game can't offer some additional goodies.
Although iOS is renowned for being a smooth and invariably seamless mobile experience, it does lack many customization features which would render it a more 'complete' operating system.
We are getting extremely close to the saturation stage in Cydia, where developers are having a difficult time creating new and unique tweaks which haven't already been thought of. With that being the case, jailbreak devs tend to be really creative and inventive or attempt to improve upon an existing solution by coming up with a better implementation of something that already exists.
Everybody likes to get money off their goods and service, so I think it is fair to say that every consumer loves it when a company has a sale, or offers a great deal on a great product. Most of us would like to see a lot more sales and reductions when it comes to Apple products, but considering they hold their value up well, companies can ultimately get away with staying true to recommended retail prices.
Apple decided, that in 2011, it would break the regular launch pattern for the iPhone and deviate from the traditional June unveiling. The company took to the stage in October instead during the "Let's talk iPhone" event to announce the details and release date for the current iPhone 4S. Even though the 4S has only been with us for just over three months, people are starting to speculate and anticipate when we will see the announcement of the iPhone 5.
Although many American iPhone 4S users have found a great slave/friend in Siri, Apple has yet to sort out the language barriers for users all over the world.
