Facebook's been very busy of late. It launched a Facebook-centric phone with the help of HTC, and it has pushed out all manner of updates for the Android and iOS apps, partly in order to add support for Facebook Home. There's Chat Heads too, along with the less well publicized addition of the new Facebook Stickers.
It's debatable whether using an iPad as a camera is really all that of a good idea, but that doesn't stop people from doing it, still. There isn't a major event that goes by without there being some video footage of someone either filming it or taking photos of it with an iPad.

The fith-gen iPad rumor mill has gathered significant pace over the past couple of weeks, and with a report a couple of days back suggesting that the iPad 5 release date could be upon us as early as June, the increased attention may well be warranted.

There's been a significant amount of chit-chat regarding third-party mail apps on the iOS App Store. The original pretender to the throne was the Sparrow app that began life on OS X before being migrated across to iOS and then ultimately snapped up by Google who promptly stopped development of the project. We've since had the Mailbox app that managed to generate an interest from millions of users, and more recently, we've seen the Mail Pilot offering that may cost a lot but also brings a new way of looking at email in a minimalist and clean interface. I've attempted to use all of the above mentioned apps as my primary email clients on the iPhone, but always end up falling back on Apple's native offering on iOS 6.

Now, it has been revealed that Chat Heads will also be making its way onto Facebook for iOS, with an App Store update imminent.
A case mold has today emerged purporting to offer the strongest indication yet as to the form factor of the upcoming fifth-gen iPad. Perhaps even more exciting than the case itself, however, is an accompanying note which suggests the device will be announced by Apple on June 18th, which is just over a month away, and may also coincide with the fruit company's annual Worldwide Developer Conference.
It's as much of a yearly tradition as the iPhone release itself, and some would say it's even more fun. That's right folks, it's that time of year when we all start guessing what Apple will do with the next big release of iOS. This year's version number of choice is 7.0, and plenty of people are taking the opportunity to lay out just what they want out of Apple's next big release of iOS.
