Apple Tablet Revealed!

Posted by: Admin on Jan 27, 2010

Apple Tablet Revealed!

After years of speculations and rumors the moment Steve Jobs unveils the iTablet is here. But guys at Engadget were lucky enough to secure a few images of the upcoming tablet just hours before the event. Is this the real deal or just another fake? To be honest it looks very real to me, and being that this image leaked just hours before the presentation is more proof of that. Some of the interesting things to note about the image is that it's clearly running some version of the iPhone OS. There are indicators for WIFI and a (No Service) message in the top left corner, indicating some sort of 3g connectivity.

As far as price goes we predict $699 with a 2 years contract.

Apple wins my loyalty, gives me a new MacBook Pro

Apple wins my loyalty, gives me a new MacBook Pro

I've been an owner of the white Macbook for about 2 years now. I've been less the impressed by the build quality of this unit, and constant case cracking and tearing didn't help my problems.

After months of unsuccessful repair attempts by Apple they finally decided to give me a free upgrade to the new MacBook Pro 13' even though my laptop has been out of warranty for almost 9 month. All I had to pay for was the out of warranty fee of $300. if I was smart enough to get Apple Care from the start, this update would have been absolutely free.

It is great to know that even a large corporation like Apple still cares about it's customers on individual level, and are willing to go to great lengths in order to keep them happy.

From now on I will always buy Apple Care with all my laptop purchases since Apple has proven to me that they will do anything in their power to satisfy their customers.

Twitter Redesign

Twitter has redesigned their homepage with slick new graphics and a prominent placement for search and top tags. Is this just a beginning of a complete redesign or not?

Update from twitter blog:

Today we're trying a redesigned front page for folks who are new to Twitter.com. If you're a regular around these parts, then you won't notice the new look unless you sign out of your account. Helping people access Twitter in more relevant and useful ways upon first introduction lowers the barrier to accessing the value Twitter has to offer and presents the service more consistently with how it has evolved.

ZUNE HD Is No Longer Just A Rumor

ZUNE HD Is No Longer Just A Rumor

REDMOND, Wash. — May 26, 2009 — Microsoft Corp. today announced the evolution of Zune, the company’s end-to-end music and entertainment service, to a new platform and new markets. Zune will extend its video service to Xbox LIVE internationally this fall. This marks an important development in the Zune strategy and brings the Zune brand to more than 17 million international Xbox LIVE subscribers. In addition, Microsoft confirmed the next generation of the Zune portable media player, Zune HD. Available in the U.S. this fall, Zune HD is the first portable media player that combines a built-in HD Radio receiver, high-definition (HD) video output capabilities, organic light-emitting diode (OLED) touch screen, Wi-Fi and an Internet browser.

“The Zune music player is an integral part of the overall Zune experience, and we’re proud to be growing and extending our offering beyond the device,” said Enrique Rodriguez, corporate vice president of the Microsoft TV, Video and Music Business Group. “Delivering on Microsoft’s connected entertainment vision, this news marks a turning point for Zune as it brings cross-platform experiences and premium video content to living rooms around the world.”

Zune Service Expands to New Platform

Zune will be a premium partner in the Xbox LIVE Video Marketplace, bringing an exciting catalog of TV and film to the platform. Zune will occupy the first slot within the Xbox user interface in the Xbox LIVE Video Marketplace, exposing the Zune brand experience to millions of new consumers for the first time. At the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) next week, attendees will see firsthand how Zune integrates into Xbox LIVE to create a game-changing entertainment experience.

Introducing Zune HD

Zune HD is the next iteration of the Zune device family and brings a new level of listening and viewing experiences to the portable media player category.

* Zune HD comes with a built-in HD Radio receiver so users can listen to higher-quality sound than traditional radio on the go. Users also will have access to the additional song and artist data broadcast by HD Radio stations as well as additional channels from their favorite stations multicasting in HD. If you don’t like the song playing on your station’s HD channel, switch to its HD2 or HD3 channels for additional programming.
* The bright OLED touch screen interface allows users to flip through music, movies and other content with ease, and the 16:9 widescreen format display (480x272 resolution) offers a premium viewing experience on the go.
* The HD-compatible output lets Zune HD customers playback supported HD video files from the device through a premium high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) audiovisual docking station (sold separately) direct to an HD TV in 720p.*
* Zune HD will include a full-screen Internet browser optimized for multitouch functionality.
* Zune HD is Wi-Fi enabled, allowing for instant streaming to the device from the more than 5 million-track Zune music store.
