Don’t hold your breath for Files.app in iOS 6, here’s why

Posted: 05 Jun 2012 03:39 PM PDT

Geeks have been holding their breath for direct file system access in iOS ever since the original iPhone’s debut five years ago.

Unless you jailbreak, your ability to get down and dirty with the file system is limited by Apple’s vision that basically boils down to Jobs’ mantra that the app is the only file system you’ll ever need.

It would be unwise to bet on Apple progressively breaking away from this kind of philosophy with the introduction of iOS 6 come next Monday, no matter how strongly you may feel about the rumored Files.app.

Here’s why. And before you jump straight to the comments, bear in mind that this is just one writer’s opinion…(...)

Why Apple could sell more than 50 million iPhones this holiday season

Posted: 05 Jun 2012 03:18 PM PDT

In a research note today, Canaccord Genuity analyst Mike Walkley told investors that if rumors of a sixth-generation iPhone redesign materialize, Apple could sell more than 50 million handsets this holiday season.

The number itself isn’t overly significant — Apple sold 37 million iPhones last holiday quarter, more than double the 16 million it did the previous year — but the factors that could make it possible are…(...)

MountainLionCenter now available on Cydia

Posted: 05 Jun 2012 01:22 PM PDT

MountainLionCenter — the jailbreak tweak that adds an OS X Mountain Lion inspired Notification Center panel to your iPad, was just released on Cydia’s BigBoss repo as a free download.

As noted yesterday, this is a feature that’s been long overdue; in my opinion, it makes Notification Center a lot less intrusive feeling on the iPad. Couple it with IntelliScreen X, and it’s even better.

It should be noted, that despite my ability to get it working on my iPhone, the tweak has been released as iPad only, at least for the time being. Be sure to check out our full walkthrough of MountainLionCenter, and let me know what you think about it in the comments below.
