| Chrome accounts for 10.3% of third-party browsers on iOS Posted: 17 Jul 2012 04:42 PM PDT
Google pushed out its widely popular Chrome browser to iOS last month to much fanfare. In fact, it took less than 24 hours for the app to reach the #1 spot in the App Store’s list of top free offerings. Now here we are, nearly a month later, and the initial buzz has warn off. So how many people are still using the browser? A new report from online advertising firm Chitika gives us some insight…(...)

| Samsung snaps up UK’s fabless chip maker CSR to better compete with Apple Posted: 17 Jul 2012 03:45 PM PDT
Adamant to strengthen its portfolio of wireless patents (that seem to be all the rage these days) and help differentiate its smartphone and mobile chip businesses, Samsung ponied up $310 million for the mobile business of Cambridge Silicon Radio (CSR) PLC, based out in Cambridge, United Kingdom. With this transaction due for completion by the fourth quarter this year, Samsung will control CSR’s patents related to Bluetooth, WiFi and GPS and obtain interesting handset technology that could help differentiate its flagship smartphones. Samsung is of course embroiled in patent fights with Apple in courts across the world. At the same time, the company dedicates substantial resources to fabbing mobile chips found inside Apple’s iOS devices. Samsung appears keen on taking advantage of CSR’s research and development capability as it looks to improve its own mobile chips, possibly leading to unique hardware features down the road…(...)

| Poll: what should Apple call the next iPhone? Posted: 17 Jul 2012 02:29 PM PDT
We now have the “new” iPad but assumably nothing gets blood running through our readers’ veins as the all-important question of a moniker under which Apple will market the forthcoming hardware refresh of the iPhone. Is the sixth revision really going to be referred to as the iPhone 5? How about the iPhone 6? Maybe it’s going to be just the iPhone or perhaps something entirely different this time around? We already asked you whether the next iPhone should have a bigger screen. Today’s poll offers a few possible name suggestions for Apple’s next handset and we ask you to choose one you’re most likely to associate with…(...)

| Jobs biographer on his admiration for Mark Zuckerberg Posted: 17 Jul 2012 01:25 PM PDT
Walter Isaacson, the author of Steve Jobs’ official biography, was on stage with Facebook board member Don Graham this morning at Fortune’s annual Brainstorm Tech conference. And as usual, the topic turned to the Apple founder. Graham mentioned what a big impact Steve Jobs had on Facebook’s young CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, and he asked Isaacson if Jobs had ever mentioned him. As you might have guessed, the writer’s response was pretty interesting…(...) "Jobs biographer on his admiration for Mark Zuckerberg" is an article by iDownloadBlog.com.

| Former iAd VP Andy Miller now heads 3D motion-control startup Leap Motion Posted: 17 Jul 2012 12:34 PM PDT
As noted by The Next Web, Apple’s former chief of iAd unit Andy Miller became chief operating officer at Leap Motion, the company wrote in a release. Miller founded mobile advertising startup Quattro Wireless whose chief rival at the time had been AdMob, later acquired by Google. When Cupertino snapped up his company in January 2010, Miller was named the head of Apple’s iAd platform. He left last August amid talk that iAd was going nowhere. Now, Leap Motion is a very interesting company, especially their Kinect-like device (video right after the break)…(...)

| Checkmark hits the iPhone, is what Reminders should have been Posted: 17 Jul 2012 11:29 AM PDT
We told you about Checkmark, Snowman’s upcoming location-aware organizer app for the iPhone, earlier in the month. Today, the program has finally landed on the App Store and can be yours in exchange for 99 cents. Checkmark bests Apple’s stock Reminders app on many levels while ticking all the important boxes. It one-ups Apple with triggers based on both location and time so you can, say, be alerted to pick up your laundry half an hour before you get to the mall or have that reminder about calling your wife pop up 15 minutes after you leave work. And if Reminders’ illogical and inefficient user interface isn’t your cup of tea, you’ll definitely fall in love with Checkmark…(...)
