Steve Jobs was not pleased with the Siri moniker
According to a new report from AppleInsider, the late Steve Jobs wasn't very pleased with Siri's name.

It's happened again. Around 16 months ago, when I bought my very first iPad, my iPhone 4 became completely neglected. With the iPad's superior screen real estate, apps were so much better on the 9.7" tablet's display. They were more immersive, easier to see. Switching to a puny 3.5-inches was such a heavy come down. In the end I sold it, pocketed some cash and bought... Read more » New iPad Coverage Roundup – Unboxing, Reviews, Comparisons

I think I was among many surprised at Apple's inclusion of a much better camera in the new iPad. I would have been perfectly happy with just a front facing camera, after all, the likelihood of me even wanting to use the tablet as a backup snapper was very low. Despite that, Cupertino's design team thought it best to include a 5MP sensor with backside illumination and...

In a bid to boost sales in China, Apple recently secured a deal with a second partner in China, China Telecom, however it may already be too late to catch Samsung. Statistics released by Gartner show that Samsung now controls 24.3% of the China smartphone market, whilst Apple is lagging behind with just 7.5%, leaving them 5th in the standings. This comes as a... Read more » A weekend with iOS 5.1: what’s improved?
iOS 5.1 was released last week, almost immediately after the new iPad launch event. Due to having a jailbroken device, it took me a couple of days to decide whether or not I wanted to download the latest version of the iPhone's operating system. I like the customization I'd gotten used to, but, for the sake of you guys, I decided it would best serve the readers of an... Read more »
