Why The iPad Is Not Going To Revolutionize Web Browsing
Posted on February 22, 2010 | No Comments
Apple products may be overpriced, but you got to admit that they are the absolute best at marketing - from the Stevenotes to the zen-like simplicity. Their marketing team makes any Apple product seems like a dream. Just look at the PC vs Mac Ads. You will notice the funnier actor (John Hodgeman AKA PC) does all the acting, while the Mac just sits there and makes fun of PC's problems.
I use a Macbook, own a iPod touch, and come from perhaps the most Apple-obsessed school in the world. I should think the iPad is awesome. However, it is simply an upsized version of the iPod touch - nothing more. I probably would have prefer a Netbook that supports flash and runs on a proper OS.
I love my iPod touch, but to use it to surf the web is like trying to make a sandwich with my feet. It's possible, but not very fun. I hate clicking on buttons accidentally when I am scrolling. If you think the iPad is gonna perform like a keyboard and mouse, you are in for a shock. Mobile sites? It's a tablet - it should not use a condensed version of the full webpage. Yet, I have a feeling that Facebook will get another dedicated multitouch webpage - not the actual Facebook.com we use on our computers.

Video Chat to come to Apple Mobile Devices?
Posted on February 21, 2010 | No Comments
For the last couple of days word has been spreading around of Video chat to come to Apple's mobile arsenal, including the iPad and iPhone, something they are both missing. The devloper kit you can download, to develop applications, had code that revealed an "Accept Video" and a "Decline Video" button. There is also reference to the OSX application iChat.

Steve Jobs’ Facebook Page [FUNNY]
Posted on February 15, 2010 | No Comments
Steve Jobs, the founder of Apple Inc, has emerged from an orphan in San Francisco to one of the world's most respected CEOs. His company designs great stuff -- iPhone, iPod and Mac. Although he may look rather serious while work, but he is actually a cheeky person when it comes to Facebook. Tay Yek Keak from The Straits Times imagines what Steve Jobs' Facebook page might look like. Full credit goes to The Straits Times (information) and Facebook (design). I have compiled them together to form what you see below. Don't forget to share with your friends!

7 Million Attempts To Download Flash On iPhone & iPod Touch In December
Posted on February 10, 2010 | No Comments
Apparently, Apple iPhone and iPod Touch users want Flash on their devices, but Apple simply refuses to give way. And the lack of Flash support on the iPad tablet makes the growing rift between Apple and Adobe more prominent and it seems that there hasn't been any resolutions so far.
Adobe told Ryan Kim from the San Francisco Chronicle that there were over 7 million attempts to download Flash from Adobe.com on the iPhone/iPod Touch's Safari browser in December 2009, more than two-fold than in June (3 million attempts) the same year. Users will receive an error message when they try to install Flash to their mobile devices: "Apple restricts use of technologies required by products like Flash Player. Until Apple eliminates these restrictions, Adobe cannot provide Flash Player for the iPhone or iPod Touch."

Apple Fails To WOW Us: No New MacBook Pros, Only Aperture 3
Posted on February 9, 2010 | No Comments
The Apple Store was down moments ago and a notice has been placed on the site saying: "We are busy updating the store for you and will be back shortly." Speculations of what new products the California-based tech juggernaut will come up today began spreading like wild fire on Twitter, with Apple fans craving for the a refreshed MacBook Pro that comes equipped with Intel's new chips (i5 or i7) or an pre-order of the iPad.
To many of the Apple fanboys and fangirls' dismay, there hasn't been any much changes on the Apple Store, except for just one new product -- Aperture 3, touted as "the next major release of its powerful photo editing and management software".

Bennett from F.A.T was outraged by the late arrival of his iMac, which reached his door step a month later than he had expected it to be. To show his displeasure, he created a rather anomalous and "explicit" video of the unboxing of his iMac. Honestly speaking, this is probably one of the funniest and best unboxing I have ever seen! You have made my day, Bennett!" title="Man Humping His iMac! [VIDEO]" />Man Humping His iMac! [VIDEO]

How I Wish The iPad Could Look Like This
Posted on February 6, 2010 | No Comments
Patrycjusz Brzezinski has designed a tablet concept that is so close to what became the iPad, yet so very much more better. Featuring a sleek hardware of just 7mm in thickness, the MacView has a 1152×720 LED touchscreen display and dimensions of 15 x 24 cm. Unlike the iPad which a single slab of aluminum and glass that looks like a large iPhone, Brzezinski's MacView is made up of a light and sturdy outer carbon shell.
What's impressive is that it even comes with an additional slide panel that displays a full-sized virtual keyboard when pulled out. Some more treasures you can find in MacView include a massive 4GB RAM and 1TB SSD. The sleek device even runs on the Mac OS X operating system (although it would be better if it's powered on the iPhone OS because of its simplicity). Well, all these specifications (especially the 1TB SSD) will definitely cost a bomb but at least its interface is aesthetically pleasing. Steve Jobs should have hired Brzezinski, and probably turns his tablet concept into a real one for the iPad second generation.
