Remember a few days back when Samsung won a patent claim over Apple regarding 3G technology? Well now, it has emerged the fruit company has also violated one of Google's (or specifically, Motorola Mobility's) registered innovations, and finance analyst ZeroHedge (via 9to5Mac) believes the Big G is looking to block shipments of the fruit company's iPhone and iPad devices as a result.
The second beta version of iOS 6 - currently only available to registered developers - has just landed, and thanks to Dev Team’s Redsn0w, it can be jailbroken already on A4 devices like the iPhone 4, iPod touch 4G, iPhone 3GS. Of course, the jailbreak is tethered, which means you will need to connect your device to a computer with Redsn0w installed each time your device is turned off or rebooted, but you knew that already.
The development team over at Google have today pushed the button on the 1.2.7812 update for their iOS Gmail application and with it comes a number of improvements, feature upgrades and user-interface changes that have been specifically requested by Gmail users.

Apple has long since claimed a proud reputation for protecting its user base from the perils of viruses and malicious intrusion.

The tablet industry has had plenty to talk about given last week's introduction of the Microsoft Surface, and now, according to a leaked internal training document, we've a stronger insight into what we can expect from Google's Nexus tablet.
Steve Jobs' unfortunate passing back in October of last year left a gaping hole in the technology industry, for it wasn't just his innovations; but his character, dogmatism and demeanour that made him one of a kind. Responsible for co-founding Apple, he was ousted when things weren't going particularly merrily, but after making strong progress in his absence with the likes of Pixar, he returned - like the knight in shining armor - to rescue his beloved Apple from its knees.
Pretty much every regular user of the internet will have heard of, or used torrent files and services in order to download some type of content. I'm also pretty sure that the majority of world wide web regulars will have either a basic or a premium Dropbox account, something that is a perfect solution for storing files in the cloud that can then be synchronized across multiple devices and machines.
