iPhone 4S already sold out at AT&T, Verizon, and Sprint
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesAppleVerizon WirelessAT&TiPhone 4s
If you weren’t among the million to sign up for an iPhone 4S on preorder day, odds are you’ll have to wait for more stock to come in. All three major U.S. service providers selling Apple’s latest handset are indicating that they’re out of stock. AT&T, Sprint, and Verizon will be dishing out devices to those that have reordered starting tomorrow, and if you haven’t ordered one, wait times may be upwards of four weeks. Pricing across all three carriers on a two-year contract is $199 for the 16 GB model, $299 for the 32 GB version, and $399 for 64 GB.
The iPhone 4S has the same 3.5-inch 960 x 640 touchscreen as the iPhone 4, but it bumps up the processor to a dual-core processor clocked at 800...

Apple iPhone 4S gets the teardown treatment
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesAppleiPhone 4s
It was only a matter of time until the guys over at iFixit got their hands on an Apple iPhone 4S to complete a teardown and some of their findings are what we expected while others may be disappointing.
The Apple iPhone 4S does indeed have the dual-core A5 processor that was first used in the iPad 2. They have the processor speed listed at 1GHz while prior reports said the processor was clocked at only 800MHz. When that word broke it was a little disappointing for some despite early tests showing that the iPhone 4S does indeed stack up with the competition in terms of speed.
Another rumor that many dreaded is in fact true as the iPhone 4S only has 512MB of RAM in a time when anything less ...

Movie streaming coming to the Apple iCloud?
Like UnlikeFiled in: Operating SystemsAppleiOS 5
Apple is looking to take on the likes of LoveFilm and Netflix by bringing movie streaming to iCloud.
This is according to The Wall Street Journal, which has it on good authority that negotiations are currently on-going with a number of movie studios.
If the deals go through, then it could mean that users will be able to stream movies from the iCloud to their iOS device, without needing to store the content on their device.

Sprint denies claim that Apple iPhone 4S will be sold with unlocked micro-SIM slot
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesAppleiPhone 4s
Sprint has denied earlier reports that its AppleiPhone 4S would be sold with an unlocked micro-SIM card slot. An unlocked micro-SIM slot would allow travelers to use any local SIM card when traveling abroad, sparing them from paying exorbitant roaming fees.
Unfortunately, it seems like the iPhone 4S will be sold by Sprint with a locked SIM card slot, much like any other version of the phone sold by carriers across the world. Speaking to Ars Technica, Sprint representative Michelle Leff Mermelstein confirmed that the iPhone 4S would have a locked SIM card slot. Sprint will be offering international roaming plans to customers who travel with the iPhone 4S to countries that don't have CDMA netw...

Apple reportedly trying to add movie streaming to its iCloud
Like UnlikeFiled in: Apple
Apple's iCloud may have only just launched but according to rumors reported by the LA Times and Wall Street Journal, it's already negotiating with Hollywood to add movies to the service (funny how things have changed in five years.) The timing is particularly curious because Apple, along with Disney, is one of the notable holdouts from the movie studio-backed Ultraviolet scheme with similar buy once / stream anywhere aspirations that just hit the streets this week. However, according to "people familiar with the matter" it could allow Ultraviolet access on iThings via app, while also bringing its usual media lock-in magic by also throwing in streaming copies of any flicks purchased on iTunes...

Some iPhone 4S handsets delivered early
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesAppleiPhone 4s
It's not like the wait for the iPhone 4S since it was announced has been all that long, but we still envy the at least three fortuitous German phone fans whose pre-ordered iPhone 4S handsets were delivered last night.
The proof? The host of photos that the buyers have posted online, of the handset lounging in its box, screengrabs of voice-controlled assistant app Siri and more.
The iPhone 4S goes on general release on Friday 14 October, but pre-orders have broken records, taking in over 1 million orders in the first 24 hours.
Lucky escape
Lucky for Apple, only a handful of the much-anticipated handset have snuck out early; imagine the mess we'd be left with if a million Apple fans had sponta...

How You Can Get a Fresh iPad for $100
Like UnlikeFiled in: TabletsAppleiPad
I love my iPad. It's the original model, bought on April 3, 2010. It's been working perfectly since then but the battery life was really bad, lasting only a couple of hours lately. It was exhausted. I had to replace it.
In the process, I got a fresh iPad 64GB at the Apple Store for just $100. The good news, you can get one too.
After so many charging cycles, my original iPad's battery was exhausted. It took forever to recharge and only a few hours to completely run out. I remember the days when I first got it. I could use it normally for a couple of days, watching at least two Netflix movies on it or browsing the web, running some apps and reading comic books.
I went to the Apple Store to as...

Like UnlikeFiled in: Digital Media PlayersAppleTV 2gen
Along with the barrage of updates and novelties unleashed today from Cupertino, Apple has pushed out the Apple TV 4.4 software update, which features some new ways to stream content to your TV.
The most notable addition is AirPlay mirroring, which allows you to stream whatever is on your iPhone 4S or iPad 2 directly to you HDTV. Just as hockey season is about to get underway, Apple has added the NHL to the list of sports leagues you can subscribe to for live streaming games.

Apple iPhone 4S pre-order customers can add AppleCare+ through November 14
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesAppleiPhone 4s
Did you hastily pre-order the new Apple iPhone 4S last week when it was made available for purchase and forget to add Apple's new AppleCare+ protection program when you checked out? No worries, as Apple is offering iPhone 4S pre-order customers the option to add the coverage through November 14, even if they didn't opt for it at time of purchase. AppleCare+ expands on the old AppleCare program by covering accidental damage in addition to manufacturer warranty claims. It costs $99 per year, with a $49 service fee for each claim.

Study finds Apple users donate larger amounts
Like UnlikeFiled in: Apple
Online fundraising company, Razoo, has just released new numbers which show the average amount and total donations by users according to what platform, browser, or mobile device each uses. The results are interesting, but maybe not all that surprising.
The big story that most are focusing on with these numbers is that Apple users tend to donate the largest amounts per user. Mac OS users tend to donate about $9 more per user than Windows users, although Windows users make up close to 80% of all donations. Safari users tend to donate more than any other browser. And, in the world of mobile, iPad users donate the most by far, at around an average of $175 in donations. iPhone and iPod Touch user...

97.2% of US tablet traffic is from the iPad
Like UnlikeFiled in: TabletsAppleiPad
With an onslaught of Android tablets, a webOS tablet and the BlackBerry PlayBook, you might have thought the iPad is in danger. Wait until you see the share all these tablets got in August 2011 - 2.8% of all tablet traffic in the States. No typo here.
“In August 2011, iPads delivered 97.2 percent of all tablet traffic in the U.S. iPads have also begun to account for a higher share of Internet traffic than iPhones (46.8 percent vs. 42.6 percent of all iOS device traffic),” comScore’s latest report states.
It’s interesting to see which were the rest of the tablets accounting for a meagre 2.8% of all US tablet traffic, but in either case the facts are hard to ignore here.

iTunes 10.5 Launches Ahead of iPhone 4S, iCloud, iTunes Match
Like UnlikeFiled in: Cell PhonesAppleiPhone 4s
Every iPhone includes an update iTunes, but this may be the last time iPhone users need the media-playing computer software.
One of the things that iTunes 10.5 brings is the iOS 5 update for iPhones, iPads, and iPod touches, which will do away with the need to tether your mobile device to a computer to sync it. The new release also enables Wi-Fi syncing between the Apple mobile devices and iTunes on a PC or Mac.
In addition, the update adds some iCloud features, including iTunes Match, which will synchronize music on a user's computer with iCloud storage, even for songs not purchased via the iTunes store. Once the music is up in your iCloud, you'll be able to download it to any Apple device ...

The life and times of Steve Jobs summarized in an infographic
Like UnlikeFiled in: Apple
It’s been almost a week since the tragic news about Steve Jobs’ passing hit us and one thing that’s particularly impressive is the overwhelming response by people all countries regardless of their political or other affiliations. On Twitter, some say the responses reached 2.5 million tweets for 13 hours. Jobs was truly a uniting figure, one that won’t be fully replaced neither by Tim Cook, nor by Phil Schiller or any other single person at Apple.
But Apple’s former chief executive had an adventurous career, full of ups and downs. That’s the exact spirit of Jobs, his legacy, dare being yourself, “staying hungry and foolish.” Jobs was against the narrow minded, the technology solely for the t...
