Word-miner, watching iChange since '99.
Apple [AAPL] today is expected to introduce its super-fast, voice-savvy,revolutionary fifth-generation iPhone. The company is also expected to unleash the file-sharing amnesty-like services of iCloud and iTunes Match – on a day which ironically also marks the tenth anniversary of the founding world’s first legal P2P music-sharing service, Wippit.
Since its introduction in 2001, Apple’s [AAPL] iTunes Store has led the business, eventually becoming the world’s biggest music store. For a decade, the service has seen no great threat, but if the rumors from Facebook’s f8 conference have weight, the social network may give the iTunes hegemony its biggest scare yet.
Get set for your next upgrade, because the iPhone 5 (range?) is set to reveal itself next month on October 4, All Things Digital claims today, at last ending months of speculation. The date makes sense because it is one of those time-honored “Apple Tuesdays“.
Those Apple [AAPL] iPhone 5/4S images are appearing everywhere as we enter the final days of the long wait for the new product(s), but what of the iPad 3, can we really expect that device this year?
The iPad invasion has devoured the netbook business and driven the PC industry into the ground, so expect a price war this Christmas as PC manufacturers, led by Acer [ACER INC] and Lenovo [LNVGY], struggle to woo new customers with a PC price war. But, with a reputation as a top-tier computer maker which does not compete on price, can Apple’s [AAPL] Mac sales survive the onslaught of the PC price cuts?
Just a short note rather than a full-fledged post, but PocketGamer is claiming the iPhone 5 launch event’s gearing up to take place on October 5 (?) **This is a Wednesday, rather than Apple’s favorite launch day, Tuesday**, with shipping of the new stuff set for (about) a week later. Expect a press conference and everything, and, of course, this is all broadly in line with the mulitude of rumors and leaks which now point to mid-late October shipping. With two models, including the low cost device, this is shaping up to be an iPhone Christmas by the looks of things.
What can you expect? Faster, slimmer, lighter, iOS 5, A5, 8MP camera, HD video, Smartcovers, and more. The big discussions will be on NFC and/or LTE. The latter I think makes no sense right now, the former, well, I remain convinced there’s an iPhone wallet plan, but NFC may not yet be part of it…
The Internet. Cloud-based computing. The PC. The Apple [AAPL] mobile vision. iPads and iPhones. These technologies are transforming relationships at a rapid rate. Sometimes it’s nice to slip into something historical and evocative, so here’s some solutions to steampunk your Apple kit.
First I came across the Old Time Computer iMac covers. This transforms your Apple desktop into an object that doesn’t just look like it came from another world with better designers, but another world entirely, via some wormhole in the space-time continuum.
See this Steampunk in action at The Eugene Mac Store! Compromised of a 1980′s Macintosh computer and an 1897 Standard Model 7 Remington Typewriter, this mix-media assemblage made by Steve La Riccia is fully functional!
Apple is now selling more than one iPad every second, every minute, of every day. (An estimated 1.22 iPads per second, in fact). No one else in the space comes close, nor, in the current comptitive component supply chain fandango, is it possible to.
Apple [AAPL] introduced Final Cut Pro X last week to a huge response — the majority of which exceedingly negative. Video pros were furious at key features missing from the software, dubbing the release ‘iMovie Pro‘. Now Apple has published a statement promising those missing features aren’t missing at all, but on the way — eventually.
