steve-jobs-with-iphone

Steve Jobs epic journey comes to an end today at age of 56. The most innovative person of the century passed away, just after the release of its latest version of iPhone i.e. iPhone 4S. His company is and will be the most successful company, following on his philosophy “Your time is limited, so don’t waste it leaving someone else’s life”.Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary”.

As described on Apple website “Apple has lost a visionary and creative genius, and the world has lost an amazing human being. Those who have been fortunate enough to know and work with Steve have lost a dear friend and an inspiring mentor. Steve leaves behind a company that only he could have built and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple”.

It’s been the most successful journey, with the company seeing the worst and the best in Jobs tenure. From the start when Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak started the company, they have released the most innovative, unique and trend setting products. Starting from Apple I, Apple II to iPod, iPhone to the latest iPad. All these products have redefined the industry and forced the traditional technologists to change the way they think and use their tech products.

From all the technology lovers on this planet, we will miss you……………………………


iPhone 5 expected by June 6

Expected iPhone 5

Going by the previous record of iPhone variants getting released in Apple’s WWDC Conference in June every year, it can be predicted that the next iPhone 5 would be released in June as well. Some of the rumored features include new OS ie.  iOS 5, revamped MobileMe service in which the prices would be slashed as well, a A5 Dual core chip for much richer experience with graphics and many more features. Check out CNET and Techradar for more insight.

The other things that are also poised to be released, this summer is next generation desktop Apple Lion OS. It’s a marriage between iOS and Mac OSX with many new features taken from its mobile counterpart. It includes many cool features like grid layout of Apps, full screen Apps, autosaving and resuming features.(Source: CNET UK)

So stay tuned for the coming Apple conference, fingers crossed.

Dinner being served “ON” iPad 2 !

iPad2-dinner-plate

Hmmm, going to a restaurant for dinner and finding iPad 2 on the menu !!! This is exactly what one of the restaurant’s called “Tableau” is doing in Soho, London, UK.

They are using iPad 2 as a plate to serve food on, and an iPod touch just beside it, to give you a live show as to how the food is being prepared by the chefs before it arrives on “iPad plate”. The iPad shows a picture with a plate, also giving you an insight into the amount of calories you are gonna consume today, even before the meal arrives on the tablet. (Source : Cnet UK)

Although, its very impractical (they don’t have rims to hold on to sauces or other runny items), it’s still a good fun to see someone going as far as this, just to show their liking towards Apple’s innovation.

The restaurant did told they have to throw away at least 2-3 iPad’s daily as they get damaged due to food or liquid spillage and just not suitable for knives and forks being used on it (although screen is scratch resistant, it can’t resist damage caused by the use of such cutlery because its not made for one).

So, to all the Apple lovers out there, What would be the next wackiest thing can u do to show ur loyalty towards a brand ?

Feel free to leave you comments.


Table Connect for iPhone, looks similar to Microsoft Surface

table_connect_iphone

Wanna enjoy iPhone on a BIG screen!!. It maybe possible in the coming year or so. A 58″ Full HD capacitive screen table is in the making to which an iPhone (3GS and iPhone 4 as of now) can be connected and the exact simulation of it comes alive instantly.

To enjoy the beauty of it, iPhone should be jailbroken so that the Table Connect App can be installed and phone connected through a dock to make it work. Should i now ask Steve Jobs as to why jailbreak has been made legal in US? Apple guys…. are u listening, it makes your own product worthwhile?

Using table connect for iPhone lets you to enjoy everything Apple on a massive multitouch table.

Table connect cannot be used by iPhone 2G and 3G because of slow processing power.

So what do you think, which game or app would you most enjoy on table connect? What would be the pricing? When would it be launched? Feel free to leave your comments.

Check out the website iPhonedownloadblog that has got all the tools and instructions on how to Jailbreak and Unlock iPhone.

It means that the Apple can only patch the exploit, not by a firmware update, but through a hardware upgrade.

Apple is gonna release the 4.2 update in the coming week or so and the jailbreak is also ready to be rolled out at the same time.
