Due largely to the success of the iPhone and subsequently, the iPad, Apple's increased wealth is becoming something of a spectator sport within the tech industry, and although Samsung has recently overtaken its fruit-loving rival in terms of smartphone market share, Apple's sales continue to rise through the roof - as does its bank balance.
Considering all that Steve Jobs achieved in his life and brought to the technology forefront, it would figure that any reminisce of the late, great Apple co-founder is worth having a look at, and the latest, which sees Steve Jobs playing the role of former US President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, is certainly an eye-opener - if not a little strange.
If you missed last month's $0.99 sale of Chair's iconic Infinity Blade title, you'll be pleased to know that the sale is once again on, and those partial to an epic swordfighter (or games that simply look phenomenal), can grab the game for that same low price right now.
It's been a while since we had a good old fashioned battle of the mobile operating systems, or more specifically an iOS versus Android head-to-head.
