The iPhone 5, which was finally unveiled to the world by Apple on Wednesday, has already spent its pre-order quota for the September 21st launch date. Many consumers around the world set alarms and made allowances just to be able to log in and secure their pre-order, but for those who missed out, it looks like you're going to have to join the legions of others in queuing outside the store.
Back in July, we discussed an app called Savi People that provided a very powerful unified communication experience by integrating your iOS device’s contacts with friends on Facebook, followers on Instagram and Twitter, and connections on LinkedIn.

Check it all out after the jump.

The Call of Duty franchise is the most successful in the gaming world, and although the majority of gamers get their fix on the Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 consoles, the next release of the record-breaking Activision series - Black Ops II - will also be coming to Nintendo's Wii U.

Whilst the big technology companies are, to a degree, responsible for shaping the world we live in, they do often take themselves just a little too seriously, and Apple is certainly the best at it.
