iOS 7 beta 6 download was seeded about a week or so ago, and is currently the latest available beta version of the next generation iPhone, iPod touch and iPad operating system that has been seeded to Apple’s registered developers. Despite some sources claiming that a beta 7 might also get to see light of the day, it seems unlikely at this point, as neither is there enough time nor much need for that.
If, 18 months ago, you'd have told people that Apple could well have a smaller and larger iPad available to match the main 9.7-inch model, you'd have probably been laughed at. Yet Tim Cook's Apple seems a lot more open to the idea of change, and with the iPad mini now a well-established product in the consumer market, the notion of a larger device suddenly doesn't sound so inconceivable. Murmurings dating back to May have suggested that the famed tablet range could introduce a larger, possibly 12.9-inch / 13-inch iPad model, and to give an idea of what that could look like, CiccareseDesign has cooked up a couple of tasty concept renders.
Casual gaming has taken off to be one of the biggest things that nobody thought would ever happen. Gone are the days where the only video game you could play had to be in front of a TV, connected to a system with zero portability. Mobile games are one of the driving forces for procrastination, but let's face it, most mobile games suck for actual gaming. Touch-screen devices are perfect for one-touch controlled puzzlers such as Temple Run, or Angry Birds, but don't perform as well when an analogue axis and buttons are slapped onto the screen.
According to reports coming from executives within official supply chains, Apple is in the middle of testing large-form displays that could potentially be used as part of any future iPhone or iPad product refresh. The fresh reports are suggesting that the Cupertino based company has been working closely with Asian suppliers on a number of potential changes that could include the release of a significantly larger iPad model, or even an iPhone phablet.
It seems that we can't go any longer than five minutes without iOS 7 for iPhone or iPad being in the news these days, which is quite a feat considering it's not going to be available for another three or four months. Today is no different, and the latest piece of iOS 7 news comes courtesy of the iPad.
Rarely does a new tweak come along for jailbroken iPhones that not only manages to become an instant favorite amongst the community but also creates demand for the creators to extend the offering to additional devices. On the whole Cydia based tweaks generally have a fairly limited shelf life and can be thought of as disposable downloads and purchases, with only a few managing to permanently manage to capture a place on a user's liberated iOS device. The original release of Auxo for iPhone and iPod touch by A3 Tweaks instantly became one of those loved packages with the good news being that the supported device range has been extended with the dedicated Auxo for iPad now available to purchase through Cydia.
When it comes to keyboards, there's plenty to choose from if you want to connect one to an iPad or an iPhone. In fact, there doesn't seem to be a week go by where our inbox isn't host to at least one email extolling the virtues of yet another Bluetooth keyboard that's been designed for use with the iPad.
Top of the list of places to stay, the only 7-Star hotel in the world, Dubai's Burj Al Arab, is possibly the most luxurious hotel on the face of the planet. It should be, too, considering the $1,500 starting price for a double room. If you are lucky enough to be able to count yourself amongst the few people that can afford to frequent the place though, you'll be greeted with your very own iPad to use during your stay. Not just any iPad though. Oh no.
A strange glitch in Apple's iMessage system, sees the words 'Obama' and 'surprise' deleted when entered in a certain way. Sending the message "I could be the next Obama " - taking careful note of that space at the end of the sentence, sees the name of the U.S. president removed completely, and the same goes for "The best prize is a surprise ".
