There has been much talk over the last couple of months regarding Apple's next tablet offering, in particular whether it will finally pack an uber-sharp Retina display.
Like AirPlay? Now you can use the technology to mirror your entire Mac display onto a television’s screen using an Apple TV! We are huge fans of Apple's implementation of AirPlay with the Apple TV. For those not familiar with the technology, AirPlay allows anyone with an iOS device and an Apple TV to send video, audio or both over the Wi-Fi network and onto a big screen via the little black box of awesome.
You can't really call yourself a gamer unless you have sampled the joys of Max Payne. Originally released more years ago than we care to remember - we're all getting old now, you know! - the game sees ex-DEA and NYPD cop Max Payne seek revenge for the murder of his wife and daughter.
The iPhone 4 and 4S may not be the only devices with insanely high resolution screens. In the near future, with speculation that Apple is working to bring super high resolutions to the Mac being given extra weight thanks to the recent release of the new Messages app.
Samsung chose the biggest advertising day of the year in the United States to debut their Apple mocking, Samsung Galaxy Note commercial which aired for the first time during Super Bowl XLVI. The commercial, which featured a number of blatant attacks toward Apple, featured possibly an ageing British rock band as well as quite possibly the biggest mobile phone I have ever seen, which even comes with a stylus. Yes, 2012 and Samsung are releasing top of the range smartphones with a pen.
Yesterday turned out to be a very interesting day in the world of Apple, with the company blind-siding the majority of Mac users and announcing the release of Mountain Lion, which is the latest iteration of OS X, and is set to be launched in the summer. The new OS is a continuation in the development of OS X and gives the most clear indication yet that the company is heading down the route of fusing OS X and iOS together.
Somehow, iOS commentator BlogdoiPhone has supposedly gotten wind of a "pre-GM" leak of the upcoming iteration of iOS, which is iOS 5.1. GM, initialism of Golden Master, usually refers to the final version so, if true, the information and images below would appear to paint the full picture as to what Apple has in the pipeline.
In this fast paced world that we live in, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that if we can find a way to complete a task in a shorter period of time, we will more than likely grab it with both hands. Programmers and coders love to write scripts which automate repetitive tasks, and where possible, we all get our computers to do the leg work for us so that we don't have to. But what about users of smartphones? Surely, they should be able to benefit from time saving techniques?
The Apple iPhone is no doubt a beautiful example how an almost-perfect design can help make a product great. The first iPhone in 2007 was a triumph for Sir Jonathan Ives and his team, but perhaps one of those most memorable and iconic parts of the iPhone is the slide to unlock feature on the lock screen which has been made famous by Apple. Before the iPhone was released, mobile phones generally featured some kind of two button combo to lock/unlock the device, but Apple managed to change that, and have since featured the same swipe gesture in their iPod touch device as well as the iPad.
Today's tech coverage has been largely dominated by the coverage of Apple's upcoming version of OS X, with the developer preview of Mountain Lion (10.8) having just been released a matter of hours ago along with the new Messages Beta app.
