Leaked iPhone 4?

Published by elricb under Apple, Tech

Poor chap, Lord Jobs has very little tolerance for this sort of thing. Unless, it’s a ploy? Who knows, what fun!

Hello iPad

Published by elricb under Apple, Tech

It’s so much more intimate than a laptop and so much more capable than a smart phone

Well, the waiting is over folks, Steve Jobs finally unveiled his iPad after months nae years of fevered speculation.

iPad eh, I didn’t think it was going to be that – I had thought that the iPad was going to be some accessory device. It makes sense though, iPod – iPad! Genius.

All the good stuff is over at http://www.apple.com/ipad including the obligatory Jonny Ive video that has you wanting it so much. It sure is a purdy piece of kit, well speced and with an entry price of $499 for the WiFi 16gb version – quite bloody tempting indeed – I thought it would be so much more. Thing is, I am sure I can hold out till next year for ipad 2, twice as fast, half the cost.

The iBook App which twists round the bookshelf to reveal the iBookstore is pure Jobs – it makes you smile.

It’s a very interesting device, I would love to see how they see it fitting into the Apple eco system, how does it work with the AppleTV with your iMac anything new there? I hope so!

One more sleep…

Published by elricb under Apple, Tech

Before the release of Apple’s new product, the most vaunted and mythical Tablet device that they have presumably been working on for many years and a device that Lord Jobs has killed off at least 4 times.

But, it seems that it may be back – if Jobs does not release a Tablet device tomorrow I reckon there will be some sort of collective geek brain haemorrhage.

Steve himself dropped a hint at yesterdays roaring profits announcement:

The new products we are planning to release this year are very strong, starting this week with a major new product that we’re really excited about

In the meantime, I liked this little faked up ad – gives you a flavour doesnt it?

So much press today – with publications trying to out do themselves to get their predictions out there:
