Remembering Steve

Posted: 05 Oct 2012 06:30 PM PDT

I will always remember where I was when I heard the news that Steve Jobs had passed away, a year ago today. I was sitting in a meeting with four other board members of my Homeowner Association. The news felt like a bad joke. Something that couldn’t be true. The writing had been on the walls for months, if not years, yet, I found it impossible to believe.

It actually took me a few weeks to process the news and cope with the death of the man who not only had shaped an important part of my life, but had also shaped and changed the lives of millions of people around the world.(...)

Thousands of Foxconn workers go on strike over iPhone 5 production

Posted: 05 Oct 2012 04:55 PM PDT

When Apple introduced the iPhone 5, it noted: “We’ve developed manufacturing processes that are our most complex and ambitions. Never before have we built a product with this extraordinary level of fit and finish.”

While the end result of these complex methods — i.e. the iPhone 5 — appears to be making customers happy, the processes themselves seem to be causing problems at the factories. A new report is out this afternoon that thousands of Foxconn workers have gone on strike due to issues with iPhone 5 production…(...)

How to import media on your iPhone or iPad without iTunes

Posted: 05 Oct 2012 03:56 PM PDT

Bridge is a jailbreak app that allows you to import music from your iDevice directly into your media library. While it works best in cohesion with a download tool like Safari Download Manager, it can work independently as well.

Files can be accessed via a built in file browser, or you can paste the URL of a specific file directly into the app. Have a look at our brief video for more insight…(...)

With this year’s iPhone launch now behind us, and the current-gen iPad now past the halfway point in its 12-month life cycle, we knew it was only a matter of time before we started hearing rumors regarding the next iPad. And a juicy one just hit the web.

According to a new report, an iOS developer has spotted an interesting new Apple device in his app analytics log. It’s labeled as an “iPad3,6,” and appears to be running an A6 chip or some sort of variation of it. What is it? Well, it could just be a fourth-gen iPad…(...)

Particularly, users are starting to notice an improvement in the 3D aspect of Apple’s Maps app. Landmarks, like the Statue of Liberty, and buildings, that were once missing from the flyover mode are now present…(...)

Apple Maps offers automatic caching for offline navigation

Posted: 05 Oct 2012 08:34 AM PDT

While most media attention about Apple Maps has centered on bridges on dry land, landmarks that don’t exists and other oddities, the digital cartographers at Cupertino, Calif. have been stuffing the app with some amazing features, like offline browsing. Unlike maps in iOS 5, Apple’s vector-based Maps are cached and GPS navigation work even without an Internet connection.

For instance, Apple’s vector maps loaded while in San Francisco, Calif. can still be browsed on a flight from Anchorage, Alaska to Lima, Peru, according to AppleInsider. The writer was able to navigate across the state and via street-level maps as far west as Salt Lake City, Utah — and in 3D, to boot. By comparison, Google Maps, which use bitmap tiles, would let you navigate offline for about a 10 mile radius before complaining.(...)

Netbot is like Tweetbot, but for App.net

Posted: 05 Oct 2012 08:03 AM PDT

Netbot, an App.net client for iOS users, and the sister client to the popular Tweetbot, has been unleashed on the App Store.

Just in case you weren’t aware, Twitter has been making some changes as of late, and it’s safe to say that they have’t been very popular among the tech community. As a result, a few alternative services to Twitter have emerged, and one of those is App.net.

Though there are some key differences between it and Twitter’s methodology, both from a technical level and a company level, the services are similar enough that it’s entirely possible to confuse NetBot with Tweetbot at first glance.

Take a look at our hands-on video inside for more details…(...)

Supplies of iPhone 5 is ‘extremely limited’ amid unprecedented demand

Posted: 05 Oct 2012 07:14 AM PDT

Remember the cliffhanger scene in movies: a damsel in distress is tied to railroad tracks ahead of an oncoming train. Will the hero arrive in time to rescue her? That’s a bit like the situation we have with the iPhone 5.

Analysts are trimming their sales forecast of Apple’s new handset due to ‘extremely limited’ supplies and the all-important holiday buying period is bearing down. Can suppliers rescue Apple? Can Apple meet unprecedented demand in time to take advantage of everyone wanting an iPhone 5 in their stocking?(...)
