  • iOS 4.1 and iOS 4.2 for iPad Sneak Peek

    *iOS 4.1*
    Today, Apple introduced iOS 4.1. Steve Jobs noted a lot of fixes and new features, including:

    * various bug fixes for Proximity, Bluetooth and iPhone 3G
    * High Dynamic Range photos
    * HD video upload over Wi-Fi
    * TV show rentals
    * Game Center

    High Dynamic Range photos consist of essentially three separate images so that it will gather midranges, shadows and highlights effectively. As I mentioned earlier, HD video uploads and TV show rentals, and Game Center–a hub for multiplayer games.

    iOS 4.1 will be available next week for iPhone and iPod touch. More on this then!

    *iOS 4.2 for iPad*
    The iPad should feel special, because it’s getting its own (i)OS update. iOS 4.2 is all about the iPad.

    This is why it’s hot:

    * wireless printing for iOS on your iPad
    * AirPlay to stream video and audio over Wi-Fi from your iPad
    * add apps to folders, just like iPhone, as well as multitasking

    The update will be available in November, and it’s free for iPad users. We’ll be writing more on this as soon as we get our hands on it.

  • Countdown to WWDC 2012

    “*WWDC*”:https://developer.apple.com/wwdc/faq/ is here again, and we’re giddy with anticipation. We’re always excited for it, no matter how many times we’ve been through it before…I mean, really–what today means is new Apple stuff!

    So, to lead up to the event (which starts at 1PM ET, by the way), I found a history over at “*Cult of Mac*”:http://www.cultofmac.com/ that will get you in the mood. Did you know that WWDC was first held in 1983 but didn’t gain much mainstream visibility until 2002 when Apple started using it as a new product platform?
