Apple Starts Banning Pay-To-Install Apps

Posted: 19 Apr 2011 10:42 PM PDT

The iOS App Store might be a walled garden, but that’s not to say that developers and publishers don’t have the elbow room to engage in some of the principals of capitalism, like cross-promotions. Just don’t be surprised if one day, Apple routs you out. The latest example of Apple clamping down on developers for [...]


Last-Gen iMac Supplies Dry Up As Apple Prepares New Sandy Bridge Thunderbolt iMacs

Posted: 19 Apr 2011 10:41 PM PDT

Everyone backup your iTunes library then light their iMac on fire and dramatically hurl it out of your window while blaring “God Save The Queen” from your iPad, because new iMacs are on their way! Well, or so the theory goes. 9to5Mac reports that iMac supplies are becoming constrained. Since Apple’s Tim Cook is basically [...]


Apple Continues To Dominate Tablet Touch Panel Supply

Posted: 19 Apr 2011 09:52 PM PDT

One of the reasons Apple’s competitors have had such a hard time manufacturing their own sub-$500 tablet is because Apple’s got a lock on most of the world’s available touch panel supply. Things aren’t going to get any easier for them: Apple has just added Chimei Innolux as a third supplier of touch panels for [...]


Apple Wins Patent To Wirelessly Reprogram iPhones For Other Carriers

Posted: 19 Apr 2011 09:52 PM PDT

Since February, consumers who have wanted to buy an iPhone 4 have had a bit more choice when it comes to carriers than they once did, but even so, there’s still a healthy demand for the ability to unlock an iPhone to wirelessly handshake with any compatible carrier. International travelers, for example, might prefer to [...]


iHub Is The Shameless Trademark Infringing USB Hub Your Mac Deserves

Posted: 19 Apr 2011 09:52 PM PDT

M.I.C. Gadget is no stranger to having their collective skulls smashed together by Cupertino’s lawyers with a Three Stooges-style acoustic cacophony of coconuts colliding, and I’m sure that’s what is going to happen here with the iHub: a third-party hub that not only looks like a little Apple TV sticking out of your USB port, [...]

4 Million iPads Sold Since December, 60 Million iPod Touches Sold Since 2007

Posted: 19 Apr 2011 09:52 PM PDT

Apple’s usually pretty good about crowing about the number of devices it’s managed to sell to consumers… at least when they’re selling well. Yet Cupertino has kept iPod Touch numbers surprisingly close to its breast since the plucky touch PMP debuted in 2007. Not that Apple hasn’t released numbers at all, just that they generally [...]


Deskscribble for Mac Lets You Doodle On Anything

Posted: 19 Apr 2011 09:52 PM PDT

This is pretty neat. Deskscribble for the Mac is a new app that allows you to use your mouse, trackpad or Wacom tablet to deface, tag, scribble upon or vandalize anything you see on your Mac’s screen. For example, if you were reading this post with Deskscribble open, you could easily vandalize my author bio [...]


Student Scholarship Applications For WWDC 2011 Now Being Accepted

Posted: 19 Apr 2011 09:52 PM PDT

Are you a student teetering on the brink of an abyss of poverty some might describe as utterly Dostoevskyan? Barely enough coins in your pockets to buy tonight’s dinner — a single can of brine-soaked beans — and a sufficient volume of cheap lard trimming candles to light your midnight studies and pre-dawn app programming [...]


Think You’re an Apple Fanboy? Not Unless You Have This App [Daily Freebie]

Posted: 19 Apr 2011 09:51 PM PDT

If possession of any one app could ever be considered an instant ticket to membership in the Cult of Mac, this is it. Mactracker has been around since early 2001, and we’ve talked about it before on our site (Giles Turnbull thought it was so fantastic he included it in his list of 50 Mac [...]
