Another Apple PR disaster is looming; it looks as though “Locationgate” is making its debut appearance in Federal Court. The suit was filed by two men–one with an iPhone, the other with an iPad 3G–and alleges that Apple knowingly collected and handled location data in a file with almost no security cautions. It still isn’t known yet what…
The iPhone launched in 2007. Its release was sensationalized to the max, and brought in a new dawn for the mobile phone. Whether you’re a die hard Android lover, or Apple hater, you cannot deny the impact that the iPhone had on the smartphone market. It brought in the first, really thumb-able touch screen, with a simple to use interface. Up until that…

After Steve Jobs, Jony Ive is probably the most recognisable person at Apple. He’s in practically every promotional video, and is the man behind some of the most iconic products produced by the Cupertino company. If you’re unaware, he’s the guy behind the design of the iPod, iPhone, iPad and Aluminum unibody MacBooks. A rumor on Gizmodo states…
Remember when iOS 4.2.1 came out for the iPhone 3G? The phone became so unbearable to use, I was glad that my contract with AT&T was up. Now I feel bad anytime I see my friend take out an old iPhone 3G runny 4.2.1, it’s just awfully slow. The folks on over at WhiteD00r have perfected their customized version of iOS 3.1.3 to look and perform exactly…

It’s always so interesting to look back at history and marvel over how 20/20 our foresight was — or consider flubs that in hindsight make us want to facepalm ourselves. If I were in the executive leadership at BlackBerry’s Research In Motion, I’d be doing the latter. Turns out, when the very first iPhone was announced, it caused quite a ruckus…

MarketWatch has very recently published the results of its CEO awards. Hardly surprising then that the award for CEO of the decade went to every Apple fanboy’s idol, Steve Jobs. There’s no denying that not everyone likes Jobsy, the way he talks, or pitches about Apple products. Many are annoyed and unswayed be his generous use of adjectives describing the…
I have to say that possibly the biggest thing that I loved from my Nexus One was the trackball. It offered a simple way to navigate and select items when my fingers would decide to start acting fat. And the best thing that the trackball could do was take pictures. No need to fiddle around on the touchscreen to get the camera application to take a…
