Apple decided, that in 2011, it would break the regular launch pattern for the iPhone and deviate from the traditional June unveiling. The company took to the stage in October instead during the "Let's talk iPhone" event to announce the details and release date for the current iPhone 4S. Even though the 4S has only been with us for just over three months, people are starting to speculate and anticipate when we will see the announcement of the iPhone 5.
If fresh reports from Japanese news site Macotakara are to be believed, then the much anticipated iPad 3 tablet will be released towards the end of March, making it pretty much twelve months since the launch of the iPad 2. The blog is reporting that Apple will hold a media event sometime at the beginning of March to no doubt announce the new product and release the specifications and pricing models.
Apple has just released a minor update to its OS X Lion operating system for public consumption. Now at version 10.7.3, the latest update to the “world’s most advanced operating system” comes with support for new languages as well as the usual dose of bug fixes.
Rivalry is undoubtedly a positive thing, particularly in the gadget sphere. Without manufacturers competing for the affections of the fickle public, we'd have less devices, fewer choices, and our digital freedom could be severely compromised.
It is fast approaching that time of year again where we start anticipating the launch of the next generation iPad device. March 2011 saw consumers once again going crazy for the iPad 2, queuing up outside stores in an attempt to get their hands on the year’s must-have gadget.
With the constant speculation surrounding the next generations of the iPad and iPhone, the iPod range of devices sometimes get overlooked. The iPod touch specification generally follows along the approximate lines of the newest generation iPhone when it comes to display and internal camera but the iPod nano is entirely different.
Apple has already radically altered a few different markets in its time. The company changed the way music is sold and distributed, for instance, and few could argue that Apple was not the driving force behind the smartphone market as it is today.
There has been much speculation about the next iPhone. We're all assuming it's going to be called the iPhone 5, but then we thought the iPhone 4S was going to have the '5' moniker attached to it too, and we all know how that turned out.
The iPhone 4S is now three months old, which means the inevitable barrage of rumors and speculation will be hitting our screens in the coming weeks and months regarding future devices from Apple, especially the iPhone 5 and iPad 3. The rumor train shouldn't come as a surprise, considering it happens with every product release, but as the Apple products gain more popularity around the world, the focus on the rumors intensifies.
Musical preference is a very unique thing, and as the old saying goes, there are 'different strokes for different folks'. Besides, diversity is what makes this world a beautiful place to live in, so surely it would be a bit boring if we all liked the same sounds, or if bands, all made the same songs? If you happen to be a fan of the more eclectic musical genres, then it is quite possible that you are already familiar with one of Oklahoma's alternative rock bands.
