Yes, you read that correctly. Google Maps is finally available on the iPhone… again. After Apple’s infamously failed Maps catastrophe, iPhone users can finally gain access to the world’s most used navigation service. It seems that, despite doing its best, Apple simply wasn’t able to compete with Google in terms of, well, quality.
Amongst the initial rumours and hearsay flying around the web surrounding Apple’s most recent keynote was no hint of a new, fully-fledged iPad 4th generation. Indeed, no one seems to have expected Apple to come out with a new iPad just over half a year after the 3rd generation iPad debuted with its retina display.
We’ve been hearing rumours about it for what seems like ages and now Apple has finally unveiled the newest addition to its ever-growing family – the iPad Mini. As expected, the iPad Mini is a toned-down version of the iPad line with less attention paid towards high end specs and more of a focus on keeping the iPad experience fluid while bringing down the starting price.
We’ve been hearing a lot of talk about a mini version of the iPad since before the New iPad (3rd generation iPad) hit shelves. Despite its failure to appear back then, talk of its impending release has spread across the internet with a steadfast resilience, growing in momentum and scale all the while. Now, we’re finally hearing talk, from the Wall Street Journal no-less, that production of the iPad Mini has begun.
The iPhone 5 needs no introduction. Apple’s latest and greatest addition to its iconic line of smartphones has burst on to the scene with all the excitement and hoopla of its predecessors. Once again we have seen huge lines of eager buyers on launch day (myself included, if you’d care to read my thoughts on the experience) and record-breaking sales.
The iPhone 5 was finally announced today after months of hype and speculation. Leading up to the event, countless examples of “leaked” images and hardware cropped up with regards to the new iPhone 5. After a lot of talk and rumor it turns out that a lot of them were true.
Hundreds of cell phone plans unpacked. All the facts. No surprises.
