Protect your iPad with a carbon fiber case from monCarbone

One of the issues that I have found with cases for the iPad is that they sometimes add a decent amount of weight. After all, the iPad already comes in at 1.5 or 1.6 pounds, so even a little extra can make a difference. That said, how about something carbon fiber? Its lightweight, and many [...]

Otterbox launches Commuter & Defender Series iPad cases

So far there has been no shortage of cases and covers for the iPad. Then again, given the same is true for the iPhone and iPod touch that should come with little surprise. But while its nice to have lots of options it does make for some hard decisions — after all many of these [...]

MotionX GPS Drive HD for the iPad

I have been a pretty big fan of the MotionX GPS app for the iPhone in the past, and it looks like an HD version has recently been released (or maybe has just been discovered by myself). Either way, if its new it requires a mention and if I had missed it then its likely [...]

Apple iPhone 4 catches fire due to faulty USB port

We all knew the iPhone 4 was hot, but this takes that statement to another meaning of hot — the literal sense. And before anything thinks anything bad about the iPhone 4, and not that I am defending it in any way, but this sort of thing has happened with other phones (and other devices) [...]

Fring update gets approved, now with front camera video calling over 3G

A new version of Fring has been approved for entry in the App Store. This update brings the app up to version 3.2.0.5, but perhaps most important is what is now possible — two-way video calling using the front camera and a 3G connection. Of course, it should go without saying that using the front [...]

Apple replacing iPhone 4’s with cracked displays?

Rumor has it that Apple may be replacing some broken iPhone 4’s if they are taken into a store. According to the details, two iPhones were taken into an Apple retail store after they suffered damage.

Apple updates MobileMe iDisk app, now a universal app with support for iOS 4

Apple has rolled out the latest update for the MobileMe iDisk application. This brings the app up to version 1.2, but perhaps more important is that its now a universal app. Or maybe the important part is that the iDisk app is now supporting multitasking with iOS 4. In the end I guess the most [...]
