Social Saturday: Kutcher as Steve Jobs, new iPhone, and more!

Facebook user Rudolph T. asks, “What do you think of Ashton Kutcher playing Steve Jobs?” A lot of people really hate Ashton Kutcher, but I kinda sorta don’t mind him that much. He was good in The Butterfly Effect, and he does look an awful lot like a young Steve Jobs. What’s more, there will probably be tons and tons of Steve Jobs films, TV…

Social Saturday: My new iPad experience

Facebook user Rachel S. asks “Now that you’ve had the new iPad for a while, do you really notice any differences between the experience with the new iPad and the iPad 2?” The new iPad is very reminiscent of the iPad 2, but it is also distinctly different. Because of that, using the new iPad isn’t really a totally new experience. To me, it feels like…

Social Saturday: Will the iPhone 6 be “the new iPhone”?

Facebook user John M. asks “What do you think the next iPhone will be called? iPhone 4G, iPhone 6?” I know this may sound a bit strange, but one of the biggest surprises about Apple’s March 7 iPad event was the fact that the new iPad wasn’t called the iPad 3 or even the iPad HD. Product names garner quite a bit of speculation, and Apple completely…

Social Saturday: Is upgrading to the iPad 3 worth it?

Facebook user Daniel O. asks “If the iPad just offers a better camera, Retina display and a little more power would you still buy it and why?”  This seems to be the question with Apple gadgets these days. With the last few rounds of new devices serving more as minor product refreshes than a totally new product, many just don’t know if the…

Social Saturday: iPhone screen size, T-Mobile iPhone, and more!

Facebook user Hubert A. asks “Would it be surprising if the next iPhone came with a massive 4.5″ screen?” I think it would definitely be surprising t0 see a screen of that size on the next iPhone. Apple has resisted the trend of bigger screens for the past few years, so for the company to make the jump from the standard iPhone screen size to such a…

Social Saturday: Will Macs run iOS?

Facebook user Daniel O. asks “Do you think all of Apple’s devices will run iOS eventually since Mountain Lion has many features that can be found on the iPad” My short answer is yes… and no. I mean, the tagline for OS X Mountain Lion clearly states that the features hitting out Macs are straight out of iOS. It seems as though Apple’s been looking to…

Social Saturday: What’s next for Siri?

Facebook user Matthew B. asks “What’s the next step for Siri? Open apps, download iTunes or apps for the app store?” Before I get into this question, I just want to say that I have no idea when or if Siri will come to the iPhone 4. Many of you asked this question and the best I can do is give you my opinion – Apple’s not going to officially add…

Social Saturday: Does the iPhone need a bigger screen?

Facebook user Daniel O. asks “If Apple released a new iPhone with a different design but same 3.5 inch screen would your still buy it? What would be your reason as to why you bought it? Stability? Performance?” The screen on Apple’s flagship handset has been a topic of discussion since the first iPhone hit the market in ’07. The reception of the…

Social Saturday: Will iBooks 2 really change education?

Facebook user Daniel O. asks “How do u think the new iBooks 2 will realistically change the educational world or will it not have any affect on it?” As most of you probably know, Apple released iBooks 2 this week. This update to the Apple-branded eReader application maybe wasn’t as exciting and hyped up as a new product launch, but it was still…

Social Saturday: Is the 4S’ battery a hardware dud?

Facebook user Sol E. asks “Do you think the battery issues on the iPhone 4S will be solved with a software update?” The iPhone 4S battery. Again. This topic was the most popular in this week’s questions by a wide margin, so clearly you guys are still thinking about it. Okay, so as of right now, here’s where the battery issue stands: Apple released…
