Australian news site all too negative about iphone5

25 September, 2012

News dot com dot au has been running a smear campaign against the iphone5 since the day it was announced almost 2 weeks ago. The iphone5 can't do this, the iphone5 can't do that, the iphone5 has taken my baby. 

For example read this one: "It's the little things I miss about Steve's influence - apps locking up while loading ... incorrect map data, and a few other small graphical user interface issues that cause me to think about getting a Samsung Galaxy 3," the developer said.

So, the developer said that. Who is this developer? Hasn't got a name and sure does not recommend to buy any other phone, he recommends to buy the Galaxy 3 like any other article from this news site encourages you to buy the Samsung Galaxy.

Cut it out Newslimited it is getting boring write something true about the world's best mobile phone or write nothing. Your lies stink.

ipad mini will be expensive

23 September, 2012

With the iPhone 5 roadshow now out of the way, it’s time to focus on the announcement and subsequent release of the iPad Mini. We know it’s coming, even though Apple hasn’t yet confirmed it’s even working on a smaller tablet, and thanks to a series of leaks, we know what to expect from the iPad Mini. We don’t yet know the price, but I can guarantee that 1. it’ll be expensive, and 2. it will still sell like the proverbial hotcakes.

The iPhone 5 went on sale today in many countries, and what a bitter disappointment that product is. An incremental update with a slightly bigger screen apparently passes for innovation at Apple these days. Not that it matters, as thousands of people queued for hours in order to get their hands on one of these lackluster new handsets. Proving the cult of Apple is still alive and well.

This legion of fans, who I like to refer to as iSheep, stand Apple in good stead for its next big launch. At some point in October Apple will reveal the iPad Mini, a smaller version of the iPad boasting a 7-85-inch screen. The specs are likely to be just below that of the full-sized iPad, mainly to keep costs down.

However, the iPad Mini is still expected to sell for somewhere between $299 and $399. Apple cannot legitimately go lower than $299 when the 4-inch iPod Touch resides at that price point. $349 would seem to be the logical conclusion to be drawn. This would make the iPad Mini $150 more than either the Google Nexus 7 or Kindle Fire HD.

iOS 6 out and ready for download

22 September, 2012

Apple's latest mobile operating system adds 200 new functions and upgrades, including call-management features that let you blacklist callers and send canned text messages when you're not available; FaceTime video-calling over mobile networks; and a more useful version of the Siri personal assistant app. The most notable change, however, is Apple's new Maps app, which replaces the Google Maps app that was part of earlier versions of iOS. For the first time iOS has built-in turn-by-turn navigation, and it includes a slick "flyover" feature that lets you zoom in on certain locations using aerial photos. However, Maps is a decidedly mixed bag, as iOS 6 loses Google's helpful Street View, along with its mass-transit directions, and Maps' Yelp-driven point-of-interest data is not nearly as robust as Google Maps' data.

Wozniak queues with iPhone5 fans

21 September, 2012

Speaking at the QUT Business Leader’s Forum in Brisbane on Friday, Mr Wozniak brandished his new iPhone 5 in one hand and then his older iPhone 4S in his other.

“It’s such an important event for mankind and for history every time Apple introduces one of these new products I want to be there. I want to be a part of it. It’s almost as if you’re following the Grateful Dead or something,” he said.

“But I got it [the iPhone5] 17 hours before the people in California so I beat the Americans.”

Mr Wozniak earlier told the audience about his fascination with transistor radios as a kid, which launched him into a career at Hewlett Packard and then at Apple where with co-founder Steve Jobs he developed the first PC, the Apple I and Apple II.

But Mr Wozniak, who left Apple in 1987 but is still a shareholder, said he believe Apple would still be able to be a market leader after the death of Mr Jobs last year.

While he was the creative genius behind the early Apple products, Mr Jobs was the ultimate salesman.

“I never set out to make any money. I just wanted to be friendly and liked by everyone. I would develop products, after product, after product and Steve would finds ways to turn it into dollars,” he said.

Apple's mapping system is not the best

21 September, 2012

"Apple's version is bad on so many levels it's hard to imagine a workable version for at least a year or two."
Apple announced in June that its new operating system for mobile gadgets, iOS6, would replace the Google Maps app with its own custom-made mapping software.

iOS6 became available to existing users of the iPhone, iPad and iPad Touch on Wednesday, and anyone who installs it will have to use the new maps.

The system comes pre-installed on the iPhone 5, which debuts across nine countries today.
But the glitches have put a dampener on the launch and the strong reviews for iOS6's other features.
Users have reported satellite images showing various locations, particularly in rainy Scotland, obscured by cloud - while a search for Manchester United Football Club directs users to Sale United Football Club, for footballers aged five and above.

Australian first to get iPhone5

19 September, 2012

Todd Foot is at the head of a queue at the Apple Store in George St - despite the phone not going on sale until Friday.

Mr Foot  has set up camp with six of his colleagues to get their hands on what is expected to be the world's hottest gadget.

This will be the first iPhone5 sold in the world given that New Zealand does not have an Apple store and the Sydney store will be the first to open on Friday.

At least six other members of the general public have also queued to be among the first to get the phone.

Better not tell Todd that the Galaxy 4S does everything the iPhone5 does just a little better and you don't need to queue up for 2 days either. Ah well, one day sense will settle in until then ... thumbs up, buddy!!

My new iPhone 5 won’t work in my new BMW

17 September, 2012

First world problem: My new iPhone 5 won’t work in my new BMW.

Would-be iPhone 5 owners are in store for disappointment when they connect their shiny new Apple device into their BMW or Mini model. The new Lightning connector and the adapter necessary to convert the nearly decade-old 30-pin arrangement to the new 8-pin setup won’t work with the vehicle’s iPod Out functionality.iPod Out allows drivers to get a familiar, iPod-like interface displayed on the in-dash screen if they equipped their BMW and Mini models with the feature. The new Lightning connector eliminates the analog video signal required to transmit that display to the screen, so iPod Out functionality is dead … for now. 

It doesn't take a genius

Well, in all seriousness Samsung is pretty much right on this one. No brainer. (but it's not an iPhone) 

Microsoft CEO talks Surface pricing

17 September, 2012

Microsoft chief executive Steve Ballmer has all but poured cold water on a $199 price tag for the long-awaited Surface tablet, set to debut alongside Windows 8 next month.

In an interview with The Seattle Times, Ballmer hinted at the tablets pricing without going too overboard with detail. He said while Microsoft has a "very competitive product from the features perspective" with the forthcoming tablet, the software giant has yet to settle on a price for the Surface.

"If you look at the bulk of the PC market, it would run between, say, probably $300 to about $700 or $800," he said in the interview with the newspaper. "That's the sweet spot."

While that estimate pegs the tablet to be in-or-around the $500 price range, the chances of a price tag at the lower-end of the scale seems unlikely. The Microsoft boss hit out at lower-priced tablets, claiming that, "they do less," but noted that Apple's iPad may have set the benchmark for the price of the firm's tablet.
