			<description><![CDATA[USB thumb drives aren&#039;t the end all solutions for data transfer and traveling needs. Sometimes people want something with a little more to them, opting for larger external drives that offer greater capacities, and in some cases faster transfer speeds. One example of a bigger, faster drive is the Patriot Supersonic Phoenix. The drive is offered in a pocket-sized format that is more like a portable hard drive than a USB flash drive. But would the Supersonic Phoenix be something that consumers flock to with its SSD-like features, or should the opt for the smaller thumb drive? Find out in our revi...]]></description>

			<title>New Apple Pay Setup Screens Unearthed in iOS 8.1 Beta 2</title>
			<link>http://news.iphoneworld.ca/inews/New+Apple+Pay+Setup+Screens+Unearthed+in+iOS+8.1+Beta+2</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Hours after Apple seeded the second iOS 8.1 beta to developers, developer Hamza Sood has located the Apple Pay setup screen in the Passbook app, the Apple Pay setup screen in the initial iOS 8.1 setup and Apple Pay setup on the iPad. Previously, Sood had found the Apple Pay setup screen within the Settings app.     The setup prompt within Passbook is similar to the setup prompt to add passes, educating potential users on what the service is before providing a link to where users can input and scan their credit cards for use. Potential users have the choice to either input their credit card numbers via the keyboard or to take a photo of their card and have it inputted automatically.   The iPad gets the same setup screen as the iPhone version, but does not mention the ability to use Apple Pay in a retail store as no current iPads contain the NFC technology required to use the feature and it is uncertain whether it could be included in future iPads.   iOS 8.1 is likely to be the update to include Apple Pay, although Apple has not yet flipped the switch within the betas seeded to developers. Instead, the company seems to have been preparing the features behind-the-scenes. Alongside Apple Pay, iOS 8.1 is expected to include a host of bug fixes for issues in iOS 8, including a fix for Bluetooth connectivity problems.

  Give me five minutes, I’ll give you eight hours


  For those times when you need to use a battery back-up to keep your iPhone running, there are two timeframes that need to be considered. The first, obviously, is how long it takes the battery to
  charge the iPhone. The second is how long it takes the battery to get its charge. Power Practical is pretty much tackling both with their Pronto battery back, and…

			<title>GT Advanced Bankruptcy Unlikely to Affect Apple Watch, But Sapphire for Future iPhones in Doubt</title>
			<link>http://news.iphoneworld.ca/inews/GT+Advanced+Bankruptcy+Unlikely+to+Affect+Apple+Watch%2C+But+Sapphire+for+Future+iPhones+in+Doubt</link>
			<description><![CDATA[A new report from KGI Securities&#039; Ming-Chi Kuo suggests that Apple&#039;s sapphire partner GT Advanced Technologies&#039; recent filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection will not affect its upcoming Apple Watch. However, he cautions that it does raise concerns about the possibility of future iPhones using sapphire displays.   Bankruptcy has no impact on Apple Watch. As the Apple Watch sapphire cover lens uses an ingot of less than 6-inches, and as drop-test requirements aren’t so stringent as those of iPhone, general ingot manufacturing processes such as KY suffice for Apple Watch. This is why there are abundant sapphire ingot suppliers to choose from for Apple Watch. According to our survey, aside from GTAT, other Apple Watch sapphire ingot suppliers are Hansol (KR) and Harbin Aurora Optoelectronics (CN). We therefore don’t think GTAT’s bankruptcy will affect sapphire ingot supply to Apple Watch.   ... but it raises uncertainties on iPhone touch panel use of sapphire cover lens.Kuo suggests that GT Advanced&#039;s ASF sapphire ingot isn&#039;t the only one it&#039;s considering to use for iPhone displays, though it is the company&#039;s preference due to the superior drop-test performance of GT Advanced&#039;s sapphire. And while Kuo believes that Apple still wants to use sapphire displays for iPhones, the bankruptcy of GT Advanced will likely result in bottlenecks in ASF sapphire production. Other sapphire ingot suppliers are unlikely to benefit, as they do not measure up to Apple&#039;s higher drop-test standards.   Apple had been widely expected to include sapphire display covers on some iPhone 6 models, but that development did not arrive. As Kuo notes, Apple still plans to use sapphire displays for Apple Watch, as it uses an ingot less than 6-inches and Apple&#039;s standards for drop-tests on the Watch are not as stringent as those for iPhone.

			<title>KGI: GTAT bankruptcy unlikely to have impact on Apple Watch, future of sapphire iPhones uncertain</title>
			<link>http://news.iphoneworld.ca/inews/KGI%3A+GTAT+bankruptcy+unlikely+to+have+impact+on+Apple+Watch%2C+future+of+sapphire+iPhones+uncertain</link>
			<description><![CDATA[
KGI has published a new report clarifying that the recent announcement that Apple’s sapphire supplier had filed for bankruptcy will likely have no impact on the production of the comapny’s sapphire display-equipped wearable. According to KGI, GT was mainly contracted to create the sapphire crystal displays for the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus.
The reason Apple partnered with GT Advanced on the iPhone displays was related to the size of the screens. Because GT was the best equipped to manufacture a display the size of the new iPhone models. However, because the Apple Watch uses a smaller display, other companies are able to produce the covers as easily as GT. This is also why the Touch ID sensor and iPhone cameras, which both use a sapphire lens, will also be unaffected.

KGI does raise the concern that future iPhone and iPod touch models may not be equipped with sapphire displays either, due to GT’s bankruptcy. The report notes that Apple is still interested in using the material for future devices, though now it may be far more difficult to get the results they’re after. Because other suppliers can’t acheive the same drop test durability as GT, Apple may be hesitant to partner with another company.Filed under: AAPL Company Tagged: GT Advanced, KGI, Sapphire        For more information about AAPL Company, Sapphire, and GT Advanced continue reading at 9to5Mac.What do you think?

			<title>Plastc, the All-in-One Card That Could Replace Your Wallet</title>
			<link>http://news.iphoneworld.ca/inews/Plastc%2C+the+All-in-One+Card+That+Could+Replace+Your+Wallet</link>
			<description><![CDATA[You already keep an array of cards in your wallet: Debit card, credit card and gift cards. Several developers are working on reducing all those cards to just one
Last year, it was Coin, the super card that holds eight cards and allows you to swipe between them at will. But Coin is still only available for pre-order.  And now Coin’s worst nightmare has arrived in the form of Plastc, which promises to outdo Coin in every way.

For starters, Plastc holds more cards: 20, to be exact, interchangeable via the card’s E-ink display. It also has upgradable firmware, allowing for new features as the technology develops. Plastc comes out of the gate with NFC technology (just like Apple Pay) — and has EMV capabilities in line with the general shift to more-secure chip-based card readers, rather than magnetic strips. Plastc could even replace your work keycard. Read more...More about Wallet, Tech, Dev Design, Gadgets, and Apple Pay]]></description>
