Okay, I accept, I’m that nerdy fanboy who’d uncritically go for anything Apple. Today, it’s about to change a wee.
Till last week I can say I was admirer of the buggy Safari, specially Safari 5. Reason being – it comes from Apple. I never tried using other browsers. Not firefox as it looks like Windows browser running on Mac. Opera? I think it’s still in beta, and reminds me of those not-so-smart Nokia mobiles. Read More →

Many Tablet Companies won’t like to take risk launching their products at the time of Apple’s iPad launch and also they will be worried as when one analyst had to say about their chances.
According to Chris Whitmore of Deutsche Bank has issued a note to clients yesterday on the subject of tablet computers in general and iPad in particular, with some predictions that don’t look so healthy for Apple competitors.
“We believe Apple’s lead in the tablet market will prove difficult to close by the onslaught of competing products coming over the next several quarters,” Whitmore stated. “These revelations won’t go well with iPad rivals and chances are that the other Pad maker’s sales can go flat.
Moreover, Whitmore estimated that Apple has a lead of 12-18 months in content and two years in “media acquisition and integration via iTunes.” “What’s troubling for competitors” continues Whitmore, “is Apple’s growing scale advantages and leverage with the supply chain. We expect significant margin pressure among the host of undifferentiated Android-pads as dozens of vendor’s battle for shelf space.”
After this Apple’s iPad has an edge over the rivals Tablets makers.

This savings is estimated to reach half-billion dollars annually by 2014-2015 in UK alone. According to David Parsons, chairman of the LGA’s improvement board describes that by making the most of modern technology and data sharing has seen huge cash savings across the country.

If you were wondering how to update yourself with the magazine, your hunt is over. Yes now the New Yorker has quietly updated it’s site, to give iPad users full access to 85 years of wit and wisdom from the pages of The New Yorker. This Digital Edition automatically recognizes me and you visiting from an iPad, and serves an optimized version of the site. Ok a sigh of relief ran through me when I got to know this.
You can view single pages in portrait orientation or spreads in landscape orientation, and you can double-tap to zoom in on a section and then scroll around the page. A single tap on the screen brings up controls for viewing thumbnails of pages, accessing archives by year, setting preferences, and more.
But people are concerned about there being no indication whether it will offer free access to subscribers as other magazine site does. But people are happy to have their digital edition optimized for iPad in a matter of weeks.
Along with the readers my worry is also seems to be vanishing with the updates.
Thanks, pcworld.com
There will be a lot of new features and additions in OS 4.0 but one of them took our attention. Normally when you go to safari and use the search bar, you can click the “bleu” button on the right side of your keyboard called “Google”, ones clicked your Google search will start. But in OS 4.0 that “bleu” button is no longer called “Google” and is replaced with the word “Search”. What could this mean?
Some time ago there were some rumors about Bing “Microsoft’s search engine” which could be the new default search engine. Is this the proof that Google will no longer be the default search engine on the iDevices? Or maybe we can choose our own default search engine ones OS 4.0 is released.
Reports have been coming in surrounding a possible iPhone App release from Apple, which will bring FM radio to the device. Sources claim that it will work as the iPod App in many ways, such as the ability to listen to music/radio while browsing Safari or using other applications. We are not yet sure if the App will be integrated into the currently existing iPod App, or if it will be launched as a stand-alone application.
One of the features which have been mostly discussed, is song tagging, which allows you to tag a song in the radio so that it can later be traced and purchased in the iTunes Store. In many ways, this rumored FM radio capability for the iPhone, seems to be very much like the one in the iPod Nano, though it will probably take advantage of iPhone’s unique functions as well.
