if possible please bring them ..in the 3rd point in list it is a camcoder, iam asking that because when i making a video the clarity is dvd so the computer is unable to see the outline of the footage and when i take movie there is no external mic input, so there is lot of disturbancing sounds actually are captured and this makes the dialogues worse... and many special effects cannot be done.. and hence this camcoder which has an external mic input with 1080 p hd video recording makes it amazing and very useful. its the cheapest full hd camcoders compared to any of the other.. with mic support. i have a large 6.3 ft tripod so it will be very useful. every item here ships within 3 days.

Apple's iOS 6 Maps app compared to

Google Maps

If you downloaded the developer beta of iOS 6 and tried out its most distinctive feature - Cupertino's own Maps app - you might have noticed something's lacking compared to the previous Maps app, which was powered by Google's tech.

That something is not only Street View, which can be somewhat compensated by the Flyover function in iOS 6, but the actual level of street detail that the fledgling new maps and navigational software of Apple reveals.

Granted, the app is still in beta, and there could be many more changes before the final version of iOS 6 is released, but if it doesn't match Google Maps by that time, many users who were accustomed to the detailed cartography coming from Mountain View, might want to have Google's navigational solution as an alternative app while Apple and Tom Tom iron out the kinks. Have a look at the current differences in the slides below, with Google Maps on the left.

THE NEW APPLE MAPS ON IOS 6

I've been testing the beta version of Apple's new mobile operating system, iOS 6, all week.

One of the features I've been testing the most is Apple's new Maps app. That's because Apple decided to ditch Google Maps and go with a bunch of other companies like Tom Tom and Waze.

(By the way, there seems to be a lot of confusion about this. Apple has always made the Maps app on iPhone and iPad. It wasn't a Google app. Apple just used Google Maps data for the app.)

In short, I don't think the new Maps app will be as good as the current one that uses Google Maps data.

Here's why:

There's no public transportation data. Instead, Apple will rely on third-party developers to fill in public transportation information like subway times, bus stops, etc. With the current Maps app, you can easily get this information from Google. You don't have to install a separate app.
There's no Street View data. Since Apple ditched Google Maps data, Street View is gone. To make up for it, Apple added something called Flyover, which are gorgeous photorealistic 3D maps. Unfortunately, Flyover only works on the iPhone 4S, iPad 2, and new iPad.
Turn-by-turn directions don't work on older iPhones. It'll only the iPhone 4S and new iPad will support turn-by-turn directions. This was a killer feature a lot of iPhone users were waiting for. Unfortunately, many of them won't get it.
The new iOS maps don't have as much information as Google Maps do. Google Maps does a much better job at labeling streets, landmarks, and businesses than Apple's new Maps app does. You simply get more information from Google.

In almost every instance, the new iOS Maps is downgrade from the current Google-powered version. Yes, I know Apple will make Maps better over time. It does that with all its products. But I've never known Apple to take an existing product, strip it of some key features, and then start building it up again. Bizarre.

Maps is arguably one of the most important apps on the iPhone. And it really looks like Apple is going to screw it up this time.

Apple unveils iOS 6: Facebook integration, 3D maps, FaceTime 3G

At its Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC), Apple has announced iOS 6, the latest version of its mobile operating system for iPhones, iPads and iPod touches.

Scott Forstall, Apple's head of iOS, started off by announcing that Facebook is joining Twitter in iOS 6, meaning you can send messages, links and photos to Facebook without using an app. Developers will be able to bake Facebook support into their apps, for example for sharing scores from games. Facebook calendars can also be pulled into the iOS calendar app.

New maps
One of the biggest updates, however, is that Google Maps has gone -- Apple has built its own global mapping system, which includes 3D city renders (which got a massive applause at WWDC), traffic reports, business listings and -- at last -- built-in turn-by-turn navigation. Bye bye, expensive TomTom app.Updated 11:00, 12/6/12: It turns out that TomTom is actually providing the maps for iOS6. That's a smart move from the company.

The maps service will also crowdsource traffic congestion information based on anonymous data gathered from other iPhone users. If Apple knows there's a traffic jam on your route, it'll automatically reroute you.

Siri
Siri, Apple's virtual assistant app on the iPhone 4S, supports the turn-by-turn system and is the voice of the navigator, and it too is getting some updates.

Firstly, Siri is going to be supported on the new iPad with iOS 6. The UK is (finally) getting local search and business listing support, and more broadly Siri will be able to pull in sports scores and player performance stats -- including from the UK football Premier League -- as well as more detailed restaurant information, including reviews from Yelp and reservations from OpenTable.

Siri can pull up cinema listings, with ratings and reviews from RottenTomatoes, for cinemas it knows are geographically nearby. Information about directors and actors are also supported and Siri can now launch any app on your iPhone or iPad as well as compose and send messages to Twitter.

Finally, Eyes Free is a new feature that lets you interact with Siri in the car, and Apple is working with manufacturers including Toyota, Audi, Honda, Mercedes and BMW to integrate the technology with their models, using a button close to the steering wheel.

Passbook
A brand new feature was introduced in iOS 6 -- an app called Passbook. It's a digital ticket system that supports on-screen versions of things like plane boarding passes, gig tickets and coupons for coffee stores. It's unclear how shops will support this, but in essence it should allow you to buy a ticket for a movie, have it land directly into the Passbook app, and let you show the digital ticket at the door to get in and see the film.

The iPhone's phone app didn't escape attention -- it's getting a reminder system that allows you to tell your phone to remind you to do something when you leave a location. For example, if you tell your iPhone where your home is, you'll be able to tell it to ring and remind you to do something when you leave the house. This is because the iPhone has GPS, and it knows when you move away from any location.

FaceTime 3G and more
FaceTime is getting support 3G for videocalling over cellular data, and you can tie your phone number to your Mac, so if you FaceTime someone from your laptop it can show up as if it's calling from your phone. iMessage is getting the same treatment.

Mobile Safari got some updates including offline reaching for Reading List, Apple's Read It Later/Instapaper-like text-caching system. Want to read a 6,000-word web story offline? That's what this enables within Safari.

A few small but important updates came to the Mail app, including the ability to insert photos and videos when composing new email, VIP starring to flag up email from important contacts, and support for password-protected document attachments.

Finally, much-improved accessibility support is coming with iOS 6, such as support for hearing aids and better ways to stop kids accessing parts of the phone they shouldn't be playing with.

Release date
There are reportedly over 200 new features, of which the above are some of the highlights. Some raise questions. For example how complete with the global maps service be? Will there be a cost for turn-by-turn navigation?

But iOS 6 won't be released until the autumn, so there's plenty of time to find out more. It will be supported by the iPhone 3GS, 2nd and 3rd generation iPad and the 4th generation iPod touch when it does release.

IPHONE 5 TECH NEWS & Rumours!!!!

Update: Our iPhone 5 rumours post has grown to accomodate more gossip - which you'll find across all three pages - in addition to some amazing iPhone 5 concept images.

Rumours surrounding the iPhone 5’s release date, potential specs and features, and price have fuelled reports that Apple is gearing up to launch its next-gen smartphone around summer time.

The handset, which is rumoured to be named the new iPhone, is reportedly under construction – and the rumour mill has been busy speculating about what we can expect to see from the device, if and when it lands.

While none of the below have been confirmed by Apple – the company is notoriously good at keeping secrets – we’ve rounded up all the speculation dished out by sources, experts & fanboys to get some clue on what to expect from the iPhone 5.

Apple iPhone 5: Release Date

Respected Japanese Apple blog Macotakara has allegedly received word from "Asian sources" who claim that Apple will launch the device in September or October 2012 which would fit with last year’s arrival of the iPhone 4S.

"According to Asian reliable source, next iPhone will be released in September or October, and this cycle seems to be kept for years," read a translated portion of the report.

If the article proves to be accurate, it would mean the company is returning to the 12-month launch cycles we saw for the first four versions of the beloved device.

Last year's October iPhone 4S launch was the only time Apple has verged from the summer cycle, making users wait 15 months instead of the usual 12 for a new handset.

While the iPhone 4S was more of an evolutionary upgrade, with a faster processor an improved camera and the addition of the Siri voice control app, the iPhone 5 is likely to bring a more revolutionary approach, perhaps with the addition of a 4G LTE internet and a larger screen size.

Apple iPhone 5: Price

The 16GB iPhone 4S lines up in retailers with a hefty £499 price tag. Prices continue up all the way to £699 for the 64GB edition.

Ahead of the iPhone 4S successor’s announcement, it is believed that the sixth-gen model will simply replace the iPhone 4s in terms of price points and range of models with any 128GB storage option likely to hit the £799 price mark.

Apple iPhone 5: Name

Following the March launch of the new iPad, eports have suggested that Apple is to cease the numbered naming convention of its pocket blowers and move the market leading iPhone range in line with its Mac offerings which see multiple product overhauls occur whilst maintaining the same base name.

“About two weeks ago we got a tip from a reliable source that Apple was going to call the iPhone 5 the new “iPhone,” according to Apple blog 9to5Mac.

“That seemed a little nuts at the time but what a difference a Keynote makes. Apple chopped the suffix off if the iPad as part of a branding makeover that will likely expand.

The report added: “Just like iMac is not called iMac 1,2,3 it looks like Apple won’t be doing the numbering on iOS devices (though it never did with the iPod touch).”

Apple iPhone 5: Display

Update: Apple has reportedly begun manufacturing on its rumoured iPhone 5 handsets. Reports suggest Sony has been working on display components for the Californian company’s next-gen smartphone since February – and will ramp up production on the panels at the end of this month.

According to AppleInsider, the consumer electronics manufacturer is working in conjunction with other firms, such as Toshiba Mobile Display and LG Display Co, to roll out enough panels for the heavily rumoured device, expected to launch later this year.

Stone Wu, a senior analyst at IHS Displaybank, said: “Even for those companies that start mass production in May, they can only reach an average yield of 65 to 70 per cent at present.”

Although there has been no official word on the iPhone 5’s screen size, rumours suggest growing competition and market pressures will see Apple introduce a new plus 4-inch model.

These rumours have been backed up by a selection of industry analysts that have suggested Apple will be forced into the screen size overhaul as competition from rival handsets, such as the Samsung Galaxy S3, intensify.

Speaking with T3, industry specialist Daniel Ashdown from tech analysis company Juniper Research suggested Apple may opt for a larger screen for the iPhone 5.

He said: "It will be particularly interesting to see what the size of the display will be given that it has not changed thus far since the iPhone was launched with a 3.5-inch screen.

"Competitors have increased their devices to up to 4.3". We would be surprised if they [Apple] didn't break from tradition this time and increase the size of the next model."

Contrary to these claims, other reports have suggested Apple will retain its 3.5-inch iPhone display for future handsets as a larger screen could disturb the iOS platform’s offering of apps.

Finally there is an Untethered Jailbreak for IOS 5.1.1 - ABSINTHE !!!

See this video and Jailbreak your Device in 4 easy steps..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a769_vnqFCA&feature=g-all-fbc

The much anticipated Absinthe 2.0 jailbreak has been released by the JailbreakDreamTeam. The utility allows for an untethered jailbreak of iOS 5.1.1 on virtually all idevices, including iPad, iPad 2, iPad 3, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, andiPod touch 3rd and 4th gen.

An untethered jailbreak means the device is free to reboot on it’s own without boot assistance and without connecting to a computer.

In order to use the free tool, you must be running iOS 5.1.1 as no other versions are supported.

TYPES OF JAILBREAK

2012-06-20T00:12:00.000-07:00

Well coming to the types of Jailbreak, we have currently 3 types of jailbreak -

1) UNTETHERED JAILBREAK -Coming to untethered jailbreak we can directly turn on the ios device without any problem when it is turned off.An untethered jailbreak has the property that if the user turns the device off and back on, the device will start up completely, and the kernel will be patched without the help of a computer — in other words, it will be jailbroken after each reboot

2) SEMI UNTETHERED JAILBREAK-Coming to the semi untethered jailbreak, the device will turn on when turned off but no app works or opens,to fix it we need to turn it on by using a computer by patching kernals, by using third party softwares like RED SN0W. In a semi untethered Jailbreak the device starts up on its own, it will no longer have a patched kernel , but it will still be usable for normal functions and we cannot work on it or use it, we can just receive calls.

3) TETHERED JAILBREAK -coming to the Tethered jailbreak, the device will not turn on when it is turned off,when a user tries to turn on a device with tethered jailbreak the device stucks on showing apple logo, and it doesn't turn on even it is kept for Days.To make it turn on we need the third party software like RED SN0W to make it turn on by patching kernels.With a tethered jailbreak, if the device starts back up on its own, it will no longer have a patched kernel, and it may get stuck in a partially started state; in order for it to start completely and with a patched kernel, it essentially must be "re-jailbroken" with a computer (using the "boot tethered" feature of a jailbreaking tool) each time it is turned on.

Tethered vs Untethered Jailbreaks

Due to the hassle of tethering (connecting) your iOS hardware to a computer on each boot, an untethered jailbreak is obviously preferential.

If you are patient, I would always recommend waiting for an untethered jailbreak to become available for your hardware. If you are determined to proceed on the cutting edge of jailbreaking, learn how to jailbreak iOS 5.0.1 with redsn0w, which is now untethered but took a while to be released. For future reference, most people are better served by waiting for an untethered jailbreak to be released.

WHAT IS JAILBREAK ?

WHAT IS A JAILBREAK ?

Jailbreak is not just getting apps on the App Store for free.
It has a couple of best features. jailbreaking is the process of removing the limitations imposed by APPLE on devices running the IOS operating system through the use of custom kernals . Jailbreaking allows iOS users to gain root access to the operating system, allowing them to download additional applications, extensions, and themes that are unavailable through the official apple App Store. Jailbreaking apple device is legal as apple has announced ,but Apple has announced that the practice "can violate the warranty. But there is a simple trick to gain your warranty back . the trick will be explained to you later. there is no need to open your device it just a software trick called updating , through which you can gain initial state of your device like the state when you buy your apple device.

Normally the devices which are unJailbreaked have a Jail.which means that Apple has set this Jail so that no one can install any app from any other third party softwares instead of itunes or from the appstore . and when we try try to install apps which are not download from our itunes account , it says that thes apps are not authorised, which means we can only access apps from our account.
Not only the apps we cannot even create or can put our favourite custom themes.which means we cannot modify the apple ios software to our customization.
To over come this Jailbreak was created . Through which we can remove the jail on your Apple device to go through our customization .Through jailbreaking we can expand the feature set limited by Apple and its App Store. Most jailbreaking tools automatically install cydia, a native iOS APT Cilent used for finding and installing software for jailbroken iOS devices.
