A recent report from reputable number-counting outfit Flurry has highlighted to us what we essentially already know - smartphones and tablets now make up the majority of the U.S. handheld gaming market in a near 60/40 split; which by our reckoning, will only continue to divide as specs are increased and bulkier dedicated portable consoles become less and less relevant.
Yesterday, we published a post in which we talked about a Chronic Dev Team member claiming that he had found a bug which would help in untethered jailbreak for iOS 5. Today, the same member has let jailbreaking enthusiasts know that if they wish to jailbreak their iOS device untethered, they should stay away from iOS 5.0.1.
In spite of the relatively successful iPhone 4S launch, it was not without its problems, and similar to the 'Antennagate' debacle of last year, there have been issues with the fundamental parts of the Apple's latest device.
Those who like to follow Apple's keynotes - and let's be fair, we all do - may well remember the company showing off iOS 5 earlier this year, and mentioning a new panorama mode that would be coming to the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch with the impending update. We sure do.
We reported a couple of days back of Apple getting its comeuppance with rivals Motorola winning a preliminary injunction against the Cupertino company in Germany - threatening sales of iOS devices throughout Deutschland.
According to a report published earlier today, Apple’s next-generation iPad will be utilizing an all-new backlight design for an HD display.
Apple has been on an aggressive suing spree lately: they’ve sued companies like HTC and Samsung and have seen great success with the latter as sales of products like Galaxy Ace, Galaxy S II and Galaxy Tab 10.1 have been banned in some countries in Europe.
Apple is going rogue when it comes to beta releases; its been only two days since they released the first beta of iOS 5.0.1, and already, the second beta has been pushed out to developers. But, thankfully, it is jailbreakable using the existing version of Redsn0w.
Released just yesterday, iOS 5.0.1 Beta was jailbroken already using Redsn0w (by pointing it to the final iOS 5.0 firmware file). The iPhone Dev-Team has now released an updated version of Redsn0w which can recognize the 5.0.1 firmware file so that you don’t have to play the “point at 5.0 IPSW” trick.
According to a report published earlier today, Apple is planning to launch not one but two new iPads next year.
