Apple Makes A Final Push To Put The iPhone 5 In The Hands Of Customers By September
| August 25, 2011 | Posted by Tony Viteritto under Accessories, Apple, AT&T, Gadgets, Google Android, iPad, iPhone, iPod, Mac, Sprint |
No company has quite mastered the power of the rumor like the technology titan Apple. They have built a wildly zealous customer base and keep them continually on their toes with constant updates and release dates. Their most recent platform, the iPhone 5, has been built up for almost an entire year with rumors flying coming in from manufacturers around the world. For iPhone fanatics, there is finally some good news as Sprint announces they will be carrying the newest iPhone when it is released.
The original figures given by Apple hovered near a September 2011 release date for their iPhone 5, but this has been pushed back and forth as early as April 2011 and as late as February 2012. Thanks to Sprint’s press release, which claimed they will be carrying the next iPhone, late September seems to be a firm time frame for the iPhone 5.
There have even been rumors over the name of the iPhone 5, some claiming that it will in fact be the iPhone 4S, but there are a few features that fans will be able to look forward to. A Korean technology company has begun producing millions of flash drives for the next generation of iPhone, which means that owners will be treated with a staggering 8GB memory. The screens that have been reportedly been ordered from Southeast Asia are also much larger than the traditional iPhone 4 screens.
The question that is still on everyone’s mind is the battle over 4G. As the iPhone market sat firmly in the hands of AT&T, there was very little possibility of full 4G coverage for the iPhone 5. Luckily, as this new incarnation has transitioned into the realm of Verizon, and finally Sprint, the opportunity for 4G coverage is better than ever.
While Android remains the most widely used operating system, the iPhone takes the lead as the most popular phone on the market. For the countless fans that have been waiting since all the way back in 2010, it seems that the time for the iPhone 5 has finally arrived.
Most Wanted Mobile Device for the 2010 Holidays: iPhone 4

The most popular mobile device on the market that is on everyone’s wishlist for the holiday season is the Apple iPhone 4. The fourth generation in the iPhone family, the iPhone 4 as everything a mobile users wants in a smartphone: 3G broadband Internet, a MP3 player with iPod functionality, video recording in HD, millions of apps to choose from to extend the iPhone to the next level.
The iPhone 4 introduces a few new features compared the the previous iPhone 3 and 3GS. The iPhone 4 is touted for having the popular Retina Display for the best screen quality on a phone in the market. Compared to the previous models, the Retina Display eliminates pixels from the screen and making reading text easy on the eyes, even in full sunlight.
Another new feature on the iPhone 4 is the FaceTime application. With FaceTime, an iPhone 4 user can participate with other users in a video conference using the iPhone 4′s new frontal camera. Unlike third-party apps that support video conferencing, FaceTime is only available on a Wi-Fi connection, but it does not stop the fun of FaceTime.
The biggest feature of the iPhone 4 is in fact a most requested feature since the release of the first iPhone is the ability to switch between applications. With the new iOS 4 iPhone operating system, apps can be switched back and fourth: whether it is leaving a game to read an important e-mail, or changing the song on a music app to reading the latest headlines in another app, it can now be done.
With all these exciting features, it is obvious to see why the iPhone 4 is the hottest item for Christmas. Buying a iPhone 4 for that special someone can be the best gift of the year, if not ever, especially for smartphone and technology enthusiasts.
Fast iPad Repair for You
| October 19, 2010 | Posted by Tony Viteritto under Apple, Gadgets, iPad, iPhone |
The Apple iPad has stormed onto the scene, and most people would be hard-pressed to name just one other tablet device that preceded it. In fact, even today, the Apple iPad has dominated the market, and anyone else trying to gain a foothold in that space is looking up at Mount Everest.
Because of the huge demand for the iPad (3G or WIFI), Apple is able to charge a higher amount for their products.
As a downside, this makes repairing a broken Apple iPad all the more realistic, because often getting an iPad fixed is going to be cheaper than tossing it out and buying a new one.
Sites can be found on the net that perform iPad repairs, but you have to make sure you find a company like refresh-repair.com (located at www.ipodrefresh.com) who is familiar with the Apple iPad and who can complete the repair in a timely manner and in a way that makes the device look like brand new again.
One interesting thing about the iPad is that, if the screen breaks, sometimes the soft aluminum body can get dented, too. This can make it challenging to put the device back together again with new digitizer screen, but if your iPad repair crew has it together, they can surmount that issue as well and make the iPad look like brand new again.

The Apple iPad – Bringing Tablets into the Mainstream
| August 18, 2010 | Posted by Tony Viteritto under Apple, iPad, iPhone, iPod, Tech News |
For a good, long while, many people believed that tablet technology was on its way out. After all, tablets have – in various different incarnations – been around for years, yet they never seemed to fully take off on the market. Today, it is believed that Apple’s iPad may have saved the technology, ushering in a whole new era for tablets. The iPad has been met with a surprising amount of acclaim, and has so far been quite a success for Apple.
Experts believe that, due to the success of the iPad, other technology giants such as Microsoft and Sony will be bringing new, advanced tablets to the market in the near future. One thing is for sure – this dying technology is currently enjoying a revival like no other.
Apple Stands Up To Google!
| June 11, 2010 | Posted by Jessica Moreno under Accessories, Apple, AT&T, Electronics, Gadgets, Google, Google Android, iPad, iPhone, iPod, Mac, tablet, Tech News |
If you’re an avid Apple’s iPhone, iPod, or iPad user you’ll probably be very pleased to hear that Apple has denied Google from blasting your devices with their mobile advertising. This is a breaking news story from June 9, 2010.
As you can imagine, Google is quite upset about this, especially since in late May Google acquired the mobile ad company named AdMob, from Apple Devices for a reported $750 Million. This decision also seems to have AdMob’s founder Omar Hamoui a bit miffed as well. This is also quite easy to understand, since as reported by AdMob, almost 32% of the ads served by that company in April went out to iPhone and iPod devices. That can translate into some serious future advertising revenue losses. Were your devices being bombarded with ads during the month of April?

In Apple’s new “What is iPad?” commercial, they claim that it is “more books than you could read in a lifetime.” But now that the iPad has been out for a little while, it’s hard to say whether or not this tablet computer that has taken the world by storm will or will not replace traditional e-readers.
