Apple posts

You’re one of the millions who is intrigued by the iPad, right? Well, we wanted to help you out, so here is a roundup of some of the most reputable reviews of the iPad. PCMag gave the iPad a 4.5 out 5 and is — overall — impressed: I’m curious to see who actually buys the iPad, apart from Apple enthusiasts. But I can tell you that when my laptop eventually dies, I’ll be getting one. USAToday (Edward Baig) acknowledges that it isn’t perfect, but it is worth it: Apple has pretty much nailed it with this first iPad, though there’s certainly room for improvement. Nearly three years after making a splash…

Let’s face it: the iPad hype is starting to reach a fevered pitch in anticipation of its April 3rd launch. But even those who yawned – or laughed – when Apple announced the product might now have a reason to be excited: Netflix streaming is coming. Yep – it may not have Flash, but the iPad now has access to one of the best, and certainly the most famous streaming service around as Netflix have announced that an app will be available on the App Store in time for the iPad’s launch this Saturday. The application will essentially be a mobile version of the Netflix Instant Watch available on PCs, Macs and home…

In the tech world – especially when it comes to Apple -  it’s a known fact that America gets everything first. But fear not people of other countries! It looks like that at the end of April, you too will have iPads to put next to your black and white TVs – or maybe even carry one in your horse and buggy! Canadian Apple Tablet blog iPad in Canada have gotten word that the weekend of April 24th is a ‘blackout wekeend’ for Apple Store employees – which basically means they can’t request any days off during that period. It’s the kind of ‘from-up-on-high’ order that accompanies all major Apple product releases….

Everyone is excited about the iPad, and that is to be expected. I’m excited too. I want the iPad to be great and to foster in a new class of device that hasn’t performed in the past. That said, I’m not buying one, even if this thing is declared the greatest device ever invented. Is it because I despise Apple products? Absolutely not. For the record, I own an iPod and a Macbook, and I also enjoy the thought and design that goes into Apple products. I have no qualms with Apple, beyond their sometimes restrictive policies towards application developers. Furthermore, I believe the iPad has great potential…

As we sit back and watch Apple slowly try and take over the world, it doesn’t help that application developers are quickly assisting their efforts. I’ll make a prediction that in ten years time, somehow the iPhone will be able to drive your car. This way you can sit at home, drive your new Apple electric car to the Apple grocery store, have an Apple grocery store employee fill your car with food, and drive it back home. All while watching Apple TV through your MacBook. Does it seem far fetched? Who knows, but five years ago, I didn’t think I would be able to control my household electronics with my cell phone….

People looking to pick up their iPads in a couple days just got some good news. Apple has made its camera connection kit available for pre-order. Coming in at a staggering $29, the connection kit consists of two plastic devices which insert into your iPad’s dock port. One device has a SD card reader on the end and the other has a USB capture device for people wanting to plug their cameras in directly. The connection kit supports all standard photo formats including RAW. I’ve been looking forward to this day for a while so I won’t have to carry my laptop around with me to small client shoots. Next week, I’ll…

Those who were bold enough to place pre-orders for the iPad should rest assured — their hardcore love for Apple products will be rewarded soon enough. For the rest of us, however, the question of availability becomes the talk of the Web. Recently leaked inventory numbers from Best Buy paints the picture, and we would not be surprised to see inventory quickly flying off the shelf. In plain English: each Best Buy store that will have iPad devices will have five 16GB models, five 32GB, and five 64GB models — that means there will be a total of 15 iPads available at participating store locations. If…

With the anticipated release of Apple’s iPad, development companies have been in quite the rush to release apps for it. Well, put your worries of no Twitter app to rest. Twitepad, an app released from InfoXenter has been approved by Apple and is one of the first Twitter clients scheduled to be released on Saturday April 3rd. This app allows for multiple twitter accounts to be used at the same time as well as they intergrated a web browser in Twitepad. What does an intergrated web browser mean? We integrated a webbrowser into Twitepad, so you can look at the articles your friends tweet. But we didn’t…

One of the newest and SIMPLEST gadgets out there for your Smartphone, is the MoviePeg iPhone dock. Coming in an vast array of colors, it will allow your iPhone to situate almost any way you can imagine. Just like My Applecore, this is one of those inventions that we shake our head at thinking, “Someone is getting super rich of something as simple as that. Why didn’t I think of it?”. For those of us who use our iPhone as our alarm clock, now we can actually prop it up on our nightstand instead of it getting lost in our bed. Thanks to the MoviePeg, you can take away that contraption you built using duct tape and…

With the trend quickly leaning towards a Hollywood in 3D, Apple has jumped on board with the technology and released its concept of the MacBook 3D. Equipped with Apples version of 3D glasses, you can now enjoy the “Avatar experience” from the comfort of your own computer desk. The majority of the features will remain the same but added are stereoscopic iSight cameras, a touch screen trackpad and a hingeless spine design. If it wasn’t already nerdy enough to open your MacBook inside of Starbucks and be glued to your laptop screen, we will now be able to view these same nerds (myself included) while…
