Apple MacBook Air 2012

2012-06-19T01:44:00.004-07:00

The improvements in this year's 13-inch Air are far less dramatic than last year's, both from a features and performance standpoint, but the Air is truly the go-to MacBook now, a machine that's even more affordable, although it still looms well above the cost of most Windows Ultra books. Because of its excellent performance, the MacBook Air remains the most recommendable Mac-book of the current batch, and one of the most affordable.

Want a MacBook that's truly portable? This is it. Want a back-to-school MacBook? This is the one. And, until the US$2,199 Retina Pro drops in price, the US$1,199 13-inch Air remains the MacBook for the masses. It's lighter, it performs better than ever, it's less expensive, and in head-to-head tests with the 2012 13-inch MacBook Pro, the Air performed very closely, and had better battery life: Nearly 45 minutes better than the 2011 Air.

Owners of last year's Air need not consider an upgrade, but if you haven't pulled the trigger on getting an Air yet, this is the best time to leap on board.

Design

The all-aluminum unibody design of the MacBook Air has become iconic, and its rock-solid wedge-shaped build has influenced many of the current crop of Windows Ultrabooks. However, just like the iPhone started iconic and gradually found itself surrounded by a sea of similar competitors, the MacBook Air now sits among Ultrabooks, no longer as stand-out as it was a year ago. That doesn't mean the Air is any less comfortable or excellently built, but the look, going on a few years old, is feeling less surprising.

Price as reviewed	US$1,199 (S$1,688)
Processor	1.8GHz Intel Core i5 ULV (3rd-gen)
Memory	4GB, 1,600MHz DDR3
Hard Drive	128GB SSD
Chipset	Intel HM77
Graphics	Intel HD Graphics 4000
Operating system	OS X Lion 10.7.4
Dimensions (WD)	325 x 227mm
Height	17mm

Both versions of the 13-inch Air sold on Apple's US Web site come with the same 1.8 GHz Intel Core i5 processor, a third-gen Intel Ivy Bridge CPU with Turbo Boost up to 2.8 GHz. If you choose the US$1,499 256GB SSD version, you can upgrade to a bumped-up 2.0 GHz Core i7 (Turbo Boost to 3.2 GHz) for US$100, and upgrade the SSD to 512GB for an extra US$500. Trick out your Air all the way, and it'll cost US$2,199--not so coincidentally, the cost of an entry-level Retina Display MacBook Pro.

Microsoft leaving Apple behind

2012-06-18T22:19:00.006-07:00

Microsoft tablet PC with windows 8 known as surface.At an event here, the company showed off the device, which is about the same weight and thickness as an iPad, with a 10.6-inch screen. The tablet has a built-in "kickstand" that will allow users to prop it up for watching movies, and a thin detachable cover that will serve double duty as a keyboard.

"We want to give Windows 8 its own companion hardware innovations," Ballmer said.

One interesting element of the forthcoming tablet is that it will be one of the first non-Xbox devices to get Xbox Live streaming capabilities.

Don't get too excited though – this means only movies via the Zune service, rather than a fully-fledged suite showcasing the best Xbox has to offer.

It does help paint a better picture of what Microsoft is bringing to the table(t) here, given it has very little heritage in the hardware business… we'd imagine the music service will be involved too.

Interesting Feature

In fact, it seems like the company's Xbox smart glass plans are set to feature heavily here too - imagine streaming everything from your console onto a dedicated tablet?

Apple has a new challenge now against the rival Microsoft's Surface tablet. Microsoft said one version of the Surface tablet would come with 32 gigabytes or 64 gigabytes of storage and feature a type of chip called ARM that is commonly used in mobile devices. Steven Sinfosky, president of Microsoft's Windows division, said the price would be comparable to that of other tablets that use ARM chips.

Now the tablet geeks must check out the new Microsoft tablet to be launched around October so you have to wait for it.

Google Drive an Icloud for android

While it may be easy to draw comparisons to Dropbox, Microsoft's SkyDrive, or Amazon Cloud, Google Drive represents the final element of a powerful cloud platform, with services that rival those of Apple's iCloud.

Use Free Facebook on MOBILE

2012-03-19T08:45:00.003-07:00

Hi Guys, This post is very exciting. Today i am going to write about how to chat with Facebook friends on your mobile. This is a cool application which is really awesome and free of cost. The application is called as eBuddy. This is a famous Java application used by most of the people around world. This Java application is easy to use and easy to understand. eBuddy allows you to chat with all of your friends for free. eBuddy supports MSN, Yahoo, AIM, Gtalk, ICQ and Facebook Messenger’s. The best part is that you can even use Facebook and we can chat anywhere with our mobile. The application supports all types of phones.

So Lets get started. To make this application working, all you have to do is to follow the simple steps given below.

Installation :

1) Make sure your phone has a Internet Connectivity available and GPRS enabled.

2) I prefer to have a free connection to Internet like vodafone is having a RC 98 where it gives 2GB free download for one month. SEE HERE

3) After that go to your phone browser and type http://get.ebuddy.com in your URL and press OK.

4) You will be redirected to a page where you have to download a 5kb file and install it on your phone.

5) After the installation you have to open the application from your phone and make sure it is properly installed in phone memory.

Getting Started:

1) Now open the application and allow the network to make a new connection.

2) Choose a language and create a eBuddy account (optional)

3) Now open the chat and select your messenger which you want.

4) Suppose that i have selected Facebook chat. Click on Facebook icon and click on sign in by entering your login details.

5) After Signing in you can a list of online and offline friend.

6) Click on any one of your online friends available there and click on write and type the message and press send.

7) Your message will be delivered there and wait for a reply( Replies are in green)

Some of the Facebook Chats are slow in response. Don’t worry that’s not your mistake

Similar to this we can use any Instant Messenger’s For Free on your mobile. I am not uploading the 5kb download link here because you have to do it from your mobile itself.

ebuddy comes with all the advance features of Messenger’s like Buzz, Nudge, Emoticons, Adding contacts and etc.It is also available with quick chat notes like hi, how are you, etc which will make the chat more easier. The best part in eBuddy is that we can also have a group chat. If you want to learn more about eBuddy the visit : eBuddy

Its a best option to have a eBuddy account because it enables extra features and also you can see all of your friends at a single place. First create a account here

eBuddy also supports iphone, android and devices like psp and etc. Visit here to read more about it.

Apple : Ipad 3 Sales

2012-03-15T23:11:00.003-07:00

Hong kong/ Sydney : The new ipad 3 hit's huge for the apple.As there was huge queuing outside the apple store 4G-ready tablet computer as the company's share price hit $600 for the first time.David Tarasenko, a 34-year-old construction manager who was the first to pick up the iPad from a Telstar store at midnight in Sydney, said ever since Apple Chief Executive Tim Cook revealed the tablet's third iteration, he couldn't wait to get one.When Tim Cook announced it, it sounded like such a magical tool. I just got hyped into it, I guess," he said.

The new iPad is a progressive development of Apple's tablet, with a more powerful CPU and screen and better camera. It was not marketed as a revolutionary product like earlier versions, yet Apple devotees still snapped up the latest version.

7 Amazing things of Apple Ipad 3

2012-03-13T02:46:00.001-07:00

Apple's first major product release in the post-Steve Jobs era included many great additions, such as a (slightly redefined) Retina Display, 1080p video and a 4G data connection. It even had a few nice surprises like the ability to use the iPad as a Wi-Fi hotspot for up to five devices and the addition of iPhoto to the iPad's lineup of great Apple apps.

But not every expectation about the latest iPad was met. Here are a few of the features that are missing in the 3rd generation iPad:

No Siri. The biggest surprise of the night wasn't a feature that was added. It was one that was missing. The idea that the next iPad would sport the iPhone 4S's Siri voice recognition system seemed a no-brainer leading into the event, but it soon became evident that Siri wouldn't be making an iPad appearance. Instead, the iPad will allow a small portion of Siri in the form of voice dictation, but not the "Siri, where's the nearest Pizza place?" that we see in the commercials. This doesn't mean we have to wait for the 4th iPad to get Siri. It could still make an appearance in a future update, but for now, we'll have to do without.
No Quad-Core A6. It's always a good bet to see a speed increase when a new iPad is released, but rather than the much-touted quad-core A6, Apple produced an iPad with an A5X. This dual-core system-on-a-chip includes a quad-core graphics processor, so the new iPad does get that boost in speed -- especially where graphics are concerned -- but not quite the leap that was expected.
No Little Brother. Rumors of an iPad Mini being announced alongside the iPad "3" were always a little far-fetched, but still within the realm of possibility. Amazon's release of the Kindle Fire has everyone itching to see Apple's response. And while it wouldn't be a total surprise if Apple stayed silent on the issue, Google's rumored entrance into the 7" tablet market may be enough for Apple to swoop in and steal the show. Expect this rumor to stay around until Apple finally releases a 7" tablet.
No "3" at the end of its name. The talk started about 45 minutes into the presentation: Apple still hadn't named the device. In fact, they had -- the new iPad is the new "iPad". Apple ditches the numbering system at the end of the iPad name, a move that will pay dividends next year when the 3rd generation iPad will seem less "outdated" and more like a bargain, a befitting way to introduce a low end tablet to the lineup.
No improvement to front-facing camera. The back-facing camera got a nice upgrade into a 5 MP iSight camera capable of taking 1080p video, but for the front-facing camera, we still get a rather shabby VGA camera. Sure, it's not like anyone is filming a movie using the front-facing camera, but we all want to look great for Facetime, don't we?
No Missing Home Button. The missing feature that is not "missing", rumors persisted over the last few months that Apple would ditch the home button, which is the only button on the front of the iPad. The idea was that multi-gestures could easily supplant the home button, a move that could free up a half inch or more of the iPad's height. But for now, the home button still has a home, and that is probably for the better. As easy as it is to use, some people still get a little intimidated by the iPad, and having a physical button to push can be a nice safety net. iPad 101: A New User's Guide
No Price Hike. The missing feature that we are all glad didn't make it into the final specs, some speculation that the Retina Display and the 4G capabilities would lead to a price hike by up $80 for each model. Instead, Apple will eat any additional cost while leaving the retail price the same. Like the existence of the home button, this one wasn't a big surprise either. With Amazon putting on the pressure with a $199 Kindle Fire, Apple wasn't likely to boost the iPad's price.

Mystrerious story simple thinking {revealed} Apple

2012-02-29T02:49:00.002-08:00

Eagle-eyed readers have been pointing out a curious omission on the imagery of Apple's iPad-themed invite that went out this morning: there's no home button in sight. The simplest explanation here is that it's a photo of (what is presumably)

Yet it's also curious given rumors of Apple ditching the home button on the iPad, an option that came to light when the company introduced multi-touch gestures to developers in iOS 4.3, and later as a feature for users in iOS 5. One of those is a full hand pinch that brings users back to the iPad's home screen, just like what would happen if you clicked on the home button.

Readers might be scratching their heads at the familiarity of this all, though. Two months before Apple took the wraps off the iPad 2, there was a story coming from Boy Genius Report saying that Apple's next iPad would be the first iOS gadget to ditch the home button for gestures, with others like the iPhone and iPod Touch to follow. That didn't happen though.

The case for phasing out a home button has become less clear though. It's a pivotal part of using Siri on the iPhone 4S, and if Siri makes its way to other iOS devices (including future iPads), it would be unusual to get rid of it. Apple has also kept the multi-touch gesture feature something that is optional, specifically to keep games and applications that make use of multi-finger gestures from being broken by the system.

On top of all this, there were also those mysterious iPad 3 home buttons that made the rounds late last year, alongside what was alleged to be the glass front of the device, which--yep--had a spot for the home button.

One thing the mysterious story ends the apple Ipad 3 is held upside down...what guys think on it..

Run Android Apps On Iphone

2012-02-23T21:57:00.001-08:00

For ages we had been porting one smartphone OS to another, and for good reasons you can already install Android on iPhone.

However, the new trend is to actually run Android apps on different platforms and Blackberry was the first one to Run Android apps on Playbook Blackberry tablet using Alien Dalvik. And the good news for the iPhone lovers is just around the corner, actual android apps can now be run on iPhone using In-the-box VM. However, its not as straight forward.

In order to run Android apps on iPhone, you would need a good understanding of both operating systems and nuances required to port applications from Android to Apple’s OS.

While the porting process may not be as smooth or as easy as one might hope it to be, the idea is indeed a good start. Anything that gives developers more time to code great apps instead of spending time writing the same one twice is a good thing.

In the box is a dalvik vm ported to iOS that can run any android app, for now just the basic apps. All you have to do is write your android code, convert it into dalvik executable (Dex) and then package and deploy to In-the-box on iPhone. Build the binary application, sign it and submit it to App Store.

You can watch it in action below and get started with a hello world app written in java (Android) and run on iPhone.

Beware..Bug in Apple iMessage allows others to spy on your convorsation

2012-02-22T08:10:00.001-08:00

For iPhone users, the iMessage platform is quite a popular alternative to traditional SMS text messaging. But did you know there’s a glitch that allows a third party to sneak in, view, and even participate in your iMessage conversations? It doesn’t matter if you reset your password, disable your iMessages app, or even perform a remote wipe of your phone. On the flip side, though, it also isn’t exactly an easy glitch to exploit.

Okay, so here’s the deal. When you register your iMessages app, it look at the phone number on your SIM card and then apparently never looks at your SIM card again. It never ties this information to your Apple ID or anything else that registers the app to your actual phone. As such, some iPhone users have found out that if you use iMessages from one iPhone, and then put the SIM card in another iPhone, the same iMessages account appears in both phones.

That’s right. Even the original phone, without a SIM card, still has an active iMessages app. And even if the SIM card finds its way back to the original iPhone, any other iPhone it had contact with will have access to the same iMessages conversations. So if you let your friend borrow your iPhone, or you happen to lose it, or you take it in for repairs at a shady store, anyone who had access to your SIM card can infiltrate your iMessages account.

Even if you perform a remote wipe, it won’t change the fact that the third-party iPhones have registered your SIM card. The only way to cut off access to those “spying” iPhones is to call your carrier and completely deactivate your SIM card. The third-party phones see everything, including message you send and messages you receive. And they can even pretend to be you and send out messages of their own. Now of course, this requires someone else to physically have access to your SIM card and have an extra iPhone lying around without its own SIM card. Chances are that won’t happen to the average iPhone owners. But it is a glitch, and something as private as text messaging conversations will always be a hot button issue. For now, there doesn’t seem to be any sort of software fix on the way.
