for iDevices Today I am showing the next category on my iPhone,
called “Media”. This deals with Apps that work with Media files,
such as Audio or Video. Simple as that.

The idea for this blog entry is based on Rosiv’s blog. His Blog
entry deals with his installed apps. So I’ll show you what runs
on mine. Maybe there’s some App you haven’t discovered yet
and find useful for your convenience.

Usually I don’t do many reviews on gadgets and hardware. In this case I could not resist
to tell you about an item one could desperately need when the cell phone squeaks and
begging for power. You all know that crappy situation: You’re out for party etc. and you
want to show your friends some cool stuff. What happens? No more battery!

Samsung and Apple have reached a new agreement level. So Apple may sell

There are still some lawsuits pending… it stays interesting so far!

The iPhone 4S hit’s the negative news again… Long waiting times, short battery
life… and now, annoying ticks and pops during some calls seem to add to the list
of bugs of Apple’s newest coup. It seems as if Apple has to deal with some real
nasty issues concerning design and technics of the iPhone 4S.

So… when checking the web again, I found something really disturbing!
The iPhone 4S is yet really desired and waiting times for Apple’s newest
smartphone is at up to three weeks. One of it’s most advertized features:
Siri! Apple says that Siri is demanding lots of CPU power. True?

So just few days ago I have shown that the new phone
displays in the upcoming devices with Android will have
displays with approx. 346 ppi and thus little sharper than
the Retina display in the iPhone 4. Continue Reading

Okay, it’s well-known that Apple has released the iOS5 update today. I hooked
my iPhone to my laptop as well and wanted to apply the update. Nothing special
you think because Apple=Plug it in, switch on and you’re done! Sounds nice but
ain’t always the truth. So here’s my update-odyssey of my iPhone 4 to iOS5…

Today I checked out another app on my iPhone. The App, called TimeLapse, is
able to do timelapse-picture-based movies. As I had no actual idea what to
image out and have it rendered to a timelapse movie, I today thought, hey, why
not line-up a sunset movie from home. So I put my iPhone on a safe stand.

masses and will introduce you to the new iOS 5 that will also be released with
the new devices and also made available to the older devices.

So… The Windows-bashers (a.k.a. Apple-lovers) finally can no longer say that iOS is never
crashing and running without flaws. Yesterday, my iPhone has shown a rather strange
homescreen. It happened after hanging up a phone call. The icons were really disarranged
and not responding when tapping on them. Only a hard reboot finally solved the problem!

You know… I really appreciate good devices, good design and technical perfection.
Apple is one of those companies who come up with really good gadgets that enrich your
life. But when you read about something to come up in the future all day and everywhere
then I can’t help to think that it is a shameless and cost-efficient promotion.

It seems as if Apple also is being mocked by local comedians. In the following
video, Conan O’Brien, a famous talkmaster, comedian and television host, has
brought up a video on Apple’s recent report that a prototype of the new long
awaited iPhone had been left in a tequila bar in California.

Tech news are all about the actual gadgets you can buy in the near future.
But tech news about gadgets that are still future inventions to be yet made,
are rather rare. This one relates to Apple’s most successful smartphone, the
iPhone. A successor will come, but not in this design flavour!

Today the news spread like fire: Steve Jobs finally retired from his CEO position

I guess, you already missed my longer posts during my absence. So did I miss a fully
functioning Internet! Unbelievable but today you feel sorta naked if you don´t have
your usual ways of communication available for your convenicence. At least even
the smallest ‘nest’ does have an internet terminal to keep in touch with the world!

Today I found this funny video on youTube where a guy is testing the Apple
Store workers’ patience to the maximum. The 3 Minutes video show 4 different
situations and the reaction is quite interesting. Where one would get a snarly
comment when bringing food or a pet into the shop, at Apple stores all is okay!

iPhone here, iPhone there. Some people might say that
it is boring to read about Apple’s wonder device, being
owned by more than 20 million people every day. But
did you know about the funny things about it’s camera?

Again I had to wait for an application to finish maintenance on my workstation.
So I decided to play chess again. Funny to see, how the iPhone can loose at medium settings:
I think, the AI seems to be either very dumb (easy), not deep-analyzing (medium) or a real
pain in the a** when using a higher difficulty setting as it analyzes every move (hard).

…for your computer at work to reboot and install some software.
 
While waiting for my Computer at work to restart and doing some maintenance,
I decided to play a quick round of chess at medium setting. I did quite well…
