Apple has unveiled its new
iPhone 4 after a couple wild, unprecedented months of leaks. Sure, it looks
exactly like we expected it to (Steve compares it to an old Leica
camera), with a glass front and back, but it's what's on the inside that
counts, kids. The stainless steel band that goes around the phone is an
antenna system, while also providing the main structure of the ...
According to AdMob, the iPhone operating system makes up 50% of the worldwide smartphone market, with the next-highest OS being Android at 24%. Sales projections for the Apple iPad run anywhere from one to four million units in the first year. Like it or not, the iPhone OS, and Safari in particular, have become a force to be reckoned with for Web developers. If you haven?t already, it?s time to dive in and familiarize yourself with the tools required to optimize websites and Web applications for this OS.
Thankfully, Safari on iPhone OS is a really great browser. Just like Safari 4 for the desktop, it has great CSS3 and HTML5 support. It also has some slick in...
Apple's spokespeople have made a rare comment regarding the
smartphone survey which
placed Android's sales at 28 per cent for the first quarter in the
US—7 per cent more than iPhone sales.
The NPD Group's smartphone survey was based on over 150,000 completed surveys undertaken online each month in the US, of the first quarter of 2010.

I just euthanised Sam Fisher.
It was the right thing to do. I couldn’t let him go on like that, constantly trailing off mid sentence, sometimes for minutes at a time, before carrying on exactly where he left off. Or he’d pull himself into safety behind a piece of cover, only to get seemingly distracted, vacant stares as all around him was chaos. When he finally returned to reality, he would just as likely be somewhere entirely different to when he started.
I don’t blame him though. It’s not his fault he’s like this. It’s Ubisoft, with all their talk of good intentions and protecting their creative license, that have really killed him, not me. It wasn’t me who decided that it was time to fight the pirates at all costs, even if it meant that the only true victim would be the paying customer. It wasn’t me who waged this war over copyright infringement....
