They say that the iPhone 4 is one of the slimmest mobile phones in the world and they wouldn’t say it if it wasn’t true, but what makes this so remarkable is that from many points of view it is also the best smartphone in the world. At least that is what millions of its users believe; such is the popularity of the phone that many other smartphone suppliers are feeling the pain. Does the iPhone 4 really live up to its reputation and all the hype that surrounds it? In our humble opinion we really think that it does. It is by far from being the cheapest phone on the market; in fact it is one of the more expensive smartphones, so if you are on a tight budget then it might well be out of your price range. But if you are willing to pay a little more in order to get your hands on a real quality smartphone, then you will not go wrong with Apple’s latest release. +Continue Reading

Apple have issued a press release telling us that on June 7 the annual Worldwide Developers Conference WWDC will begin with the speech of Steve Jobs. Over 5000 developers will participate in what it seams to be a main event this year for tech world.
As we were used to, since 2007, Apple announces the next iPhone version in June, so we think this is the perfect time to unveil the next generation of iPhone. Don’t forget this is the first iPhone which leaked before it’s release date and some of his rumored features are: 5 megapixel camera, improved display, videochat conferencing, HD recording, microSIM slot, 512 Mb RAM and a bigger battery.
The event is running from June 7 to June 11 and will focus on unveiling latest innovations for developers: Application Frameworks; Internet & Web; Graphics & Media; Developer Tools and Core OS.
At the same event, Steve Balmer is rumored to present the next release of Microsoft Visual Studio 2010, that appears to allow developers to write native applications for the iPhone, iPad and Mac OS.
Apple engineers will deliver over 100 solutions-oriented technical sessions and labs. WWDC 2010 gives an incredibly diverse community the opportunity to connect with thousands of fellow iPhone®, iPad™ and Mac® developers from around the world.
Apple ignited the personal computer revolution with the Apple II, then reinvented the personal computer with the Macintosh. Apple continues to lead the industry with its award-winning computers, OS X operating system, and iLife, iWork and professional applications. Apple leads the digital music revolution with its iPods and iTunes online store, has reinvented the mobile phone with its revolutionary iPhone and App Store, and has recently introduced its magical iPad which is defining the future of mobile media and computing devices.

Have you ever wonder why Apple CEO, Steve Jobs hates Flash(Adobe) so much? We haven’t done this till now, but we think is something strange between two big names.
All started in 2007 when Apple launched iPhone mobile device and same time with him, the iPhone OS. From the beginning they refuse to comment about any Flash support or things related to it, but few years after it seems they couldn’t resist and say directly: we do not allow Flash on iPhones, iPods and iPads.
Apple made a clever move in 2008 with iTunes, which became the unique place to download official apps for Apple gadgets. Unofficial Apple blocked any third-party software from running unless you hack(“jailbreak“) your iPhone that could destroy your warranty or even ruin the device. At that time they claimed they are doing this(iTunes) for a reason: to have secure apps, free from viruses , spam and malware. +Continue Reading
All begun few days ago when some photos with iPhone 4G phone leaked over the Internet. At first we couldn’t knew if there were fake or true, but few time after the shock news appeared on Gizmodo: iPhone 4G was found abandoned or lost on a bar in California atMarch 18.
Every little tech or related blog took the news and expanded through the whole world. It was very strange because Apple never leaked a device again and they have a very aggressive policy to hide their device before launching dates. But every little thing has a beginning so now thanks to an Apple employee and Gizmodo crew, who paid $5000 to get it, we have the look and some specs of what it seems to be Apple 4th generation of iPhone. +Continue Reading

Now let’s see the “developer preview” for iPhone 4.0 OS. It seams it will be released this summer and contains over 1500 new APIs and 100 new user features.
Dear, Holy Multitasking…might say some of Apple lovers, this is finally a dream come true and now we can execute more than one action, same time on our iPhones. The demo seems flawless, Steve showed us he can surf ebay, play a game or check his mails. Each action it’s stopped when another launches in, but you can switch back to it without a problem, the multitasking tray can be accessed by hitting the Home button. He explained that Apple managed to implement the multitasking feature preserving battery life and performances. +Continue Reading
