Tags: , , , , , , ,


iPad Apps – Tons of new iPad apps are available in the iTunes App Store, such as ABC, Netflix and The New York Times, and also includes apps for recipes, weather, travel and games.

Apple, the official manufacturer of iPad, says that “the 150,000 apps currently in the store for the iPhone will work with the iPad, but that it expects some 1,000 new apps for the iPad as well on Saturday, when the iPad goes on sale.”

When it comes to application costs, iPhone apps tend to be less expensive than iPad apps. iPhone apps are priced for around $2 or $3, but many iPad apps range at around $19.99 due to its big 9.7-inch screen.  An example iPad app is from the travel book publisher Lonely Planet.

Steve Yankovich, eBay’s vice-president of mobile, says that EBay’s free app brings a more visual approach to monitoring auctions.  It takes advantage of the iPad’s touch screen to let folks scroll all the way down until they find something they’re looking for.

“This is the closest thing to window shopping,” he says. EBay takes advantage of the iPad’s touch screen to let folks scroll all the way down until they find something they’re looking for.

CEO John Chamber’s Announcement Wasn’t Worth the Hype

Tags: , , , , , ,


Cisco Announcement: CRS-3 Platform – Many were disappointed about the recent release of a new gadget from Cisco Systems Inc, the CRS-3 platform. The big announcement from Cisco did not unveil a new smartphone or e-reader, though the hype says much of what many expected.

On Monday, investors sent Cisco a large amount of share after releasing a statement about their newest equipment, the CRS-3 platform.

According to Marketwatch, John Chambers, Chief Executive Officer of Cisco, revealed that they will unveil  ”a significant announcement that will forever change the Internet.”

But what exactly did most people expect the company, whose core business is routers and switches, to announce? The new routers promise 12 times the traffic capacity of rival routing systems. Ultimately, as they are deployed by carriers such as AT&T Inc. and others, this much-needed capacity will help move the additional traffic burden from all the smartphones out there, plus fat video files.

Cisco’s announcement of their new high-capacity router wasn’t worth the hype, they overplayed instead. That’s according to various news websites and product reviews.

Clearly, investors don’t have the same tolerance for hyperbole from Cisco chief executive John Chambers as they do from Apple Inc.’s Steve Jobs.

Popcap Game’s Plants Vs Zombies, Adapted To iPhone

Tags: , , ,


Popcap Games — Yes, PopCap is at it again and this time, it’s Plants vs. Zombies for iPhone.

This time, their crazy addictive (just like all of their games) take on the tower defense genre, Plants vs. Zombies, is headed off to the iPhone. They just tweeted confirmation a little while ago, and released this trailer showing all of the flower vs. undead action that we enjoyed so much in the other versions of the game, squeezed into the smaller screen of the iPhone.

They don’t mention a price point, but I’m guessing it’ll come out at $4.99, since that’s what most of their releases have debuted at (though if you’re patient, it’ll probably drop down in price after a while). I’ll tell you that yes, if you’ve never played it, the game is more than worth $5, but even if you don’t believe me, you can go play it online for free and see what you think.

PopCap is the master of dropping colorful graphics, sparkling gameplay, and constant little rewards on your plate, so PvZ on the iPhone will probably be yet another meal you won’t want to stop eating.

iPad: Techies’ Biggest Disappointment on Apple Technologies

Tags: , , , , ,


iPad – While many people waited for the launching of the controversial iTablet (officially called as iPad), it looks like that techies are a bit lukewarm on Apple’s iPad.

Last night Apple launched its newest addition to its roster of innovative technology devices, the iPad. However, for many, it was a big disappointment. Unlike Apple’s wildly successful iPhone, for which people lined up when it was introduced back in 2007, reaction to the iPad is lukewarm. During the press conference, it was observed that there was more silence than applause for the Apple product.

“Our latest super gadget, iPad, is better than laptop and a smart phone”, said Steve Jobs, the Chief Executive Officer of Apple Inc. Nonetheless, the product did not fulfill its promise. One of the more disappointing parts of the iPad tablet computer today was the absence of Flash, Adobe’s technology for web video and other media.

Adobe’s Adrian Ludwig commented by saying, “It looks like Apple is continuing to impose restrictions on their devices that limit both content publishers and consumers. Unlike many other ebook readers using the ePub file format, consumers will not be able to access ePub content with Apple’s DRM technology on devices made by other manufacturers. And without Flash support, iPad users will not be able to access the full range of web content, including over 70% of games and 75% of video on the web. If I want to use the iPad to connect to Disney, Hulu, Miniclip, Farmville, ESPN, Kongregate, or JibJab — not to mention the millions of other sites on the web — I’ll be out of luck.”

The following are some of the important features that are missing in the iPad (which gained so much disappointment): iPad Flash, iPad Multi-tasking, iPad Camera, and iPad USB ports.
