Apple has taken the internal decision of delaying the public launch of watchOS 2 after discovering what it quite clearly thinks is a substantial bug in the platform. The new Apple Watch firmware, which was until now all set for release into the public domain today, represents the first major update to the operating system that powers Apple’s intelligent timepiece and was set to bring a whole host feature additions and improvements.
After spending a great deal of time, energy and resources fighting the system, Uber has once again started offering its services in the gambling capital of the world, Las Vegas. The fast-growing transportation network company had originally started trading in Las Vegas in October of last year, but was promptly stopped in its tracks thanks to an injunction served by the Washoe County District Court. After almost a year of battling, Uber is now back in business once again in the city of lights.
Almost every year when a new iPhone arrives, the hype and mania surrounding it over the Internet blogosphere lasts days, if not weeks. People would praise it, blast it, experiment with it, "blend" it, compare it, go crazy over it, and someone would definitely tear it apart to figure out the component cost incurred when putting together an iPhone. Well guess what, now that the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus are here, the teardown games have begun.

iOS, while not as bloated as most Android phones out there, has still managed to accumulate a number of default apps like Maps, Mail, Calendar, Contacts and the likes.

Long time coming, but Tim Cook appears to have hinted at the possibility of allowing users to remove default iOS apps in the future.
Sony has been taking advantage of having a captive audience at the SCEJA Conference in Tokyo to make some rather interesting announcements that no doubt immediately captured the attention of PlayStation owners. The Japanese gaming giant has taken the opportunity to not only announce the official name of its PS4 virtual reality system that has been frequently speculated upon, but also introduce a number of new DualShock 4 controllers and accessory panels designed for the PlayStation 4 console.
It's hard not to feel an overwhelming sense of fondness and respect for Tim Cook. Ahead of a scheduled appearance on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert, the Apple CEO surprised a bunch of unwitting customers by making an impromptu appearance at his company's flagship Fifth Avenue Apple Store in New York City. Not exactly standard behavior from a CEO who sits at the top of one of the richest companies in the world, but then again, Cook isn't a standard CEO. It's also a move that will undoubtedly add positivity to Apple's iPhone 6s sales campaign and win Cook even more fans than he's already got.
With the next James Bond movie, Spectre, set to hit theaters soon, Sony will be launching a special edition, all-black Xpera Z5 dubbed the 'Bond Phone.'
