Unless you have been living under a rock, without an internet connection or cellular signal, then you should by now know that the most influential man in modern personal computing history passed away a few days ago. His death certificate has officially been released by the Santa Clara County Public Health Department in San Jose, California. See details after the jump.
Apple CEO Tim Cook has shared an emotional e-mail amongst Apple employees which not only tells of how he has dealt with a turbulent week, (to put it mildly), but also invites company employees to a private celebration of Steve Jobs' life, scheduled for the 19th October.
A video has popped up today that shows the iPhone 4S being put through its paces with a couple of benchmarks. There is also new feature revealed regarding Siri and we’ve discussed both after the jump!
Most Successful iPhone Launch Ever: iPhone 4S Was Pre-Ordered Over a Million Times In First 24 Hours
According to a press release posted just a few minutes ago, the iPhone 4S is Apple’s most successful iPhone launch ever as over 1,000,000 units of the upcoming smartphone were pre-ordered in the first 24 hours alone.
Here's a little tidbit that we just discovered, and it's all about the size of the iPhone's screen. More specifically, it's all about why the iPhone's screen is still 3.5-inches across its diagonal, while most Android, and even Windows Phone 7 (ultimate special super duper series edition 7) handsets are sporting ever increasing screen dimensions.
As you will already be aware, unless you've been stuck under a rock for the last few months, iOS 5 is set to launch next week along with the iPhone 4S, and although we've looked at and covered many of the key features, there are still new ones being discovered all the time in what has been a rather turbulent week for all concerned with Apple.
According to a report published today, Sony Pictures is making a deal with publishers of an upcoming Steve Jobs biography for a major feature film.
According to press statement from AT&T released earlier today, the iPhone 4S has seen more than 200,000 preorders within the first 12 hours of pre-orders going live. The news is accompanied by Apple officially selling out all pre-orders of the iPhone 4S.
We're kinda shocked at this, and we can't help but wonder if this is the first sign of change in the Tim Cook years, but Apple and AT&T are apparently in talks to change the 3G icon in the iPhone 4S' status bar to a 4G one.
JailbreakMe.com, the online service of sorts which let users jailbreak their iOS devices with a swipe of the finger, has been transferred to an “untrusted” owner after being sold recently and, as such, is no longer safe for use. The developer community will instead host the jailbreaking tool on a new domain which we’ve discussed after the jump.
