Here at iDB, we love a good deal on well, pretty much anything. Who doesn't? The problem is that finding deals on the stuff we actually want to buy is pretty tough — even with services like Groupon or LivingSocial.
That's why we were excited when we came across the new dealBoard for iPhone app. The software searches over a dozen services, including the aforementioned Groupon and LivingSocial, to bring you deals on stuff you like...
The entire tech world let out a sigh of relief last week when reports that Apple had sent out invites to a March 7th media event surfaced. Finally, after months of rumors and speculation, we'll get to see Apple's new tablet.
Can't wait that long to see what the iPad 3 looks like? You're in luck. The folks over at MIC gadget have gotten their hands on a number of iPad 3 parts, including its rear shell and front glass, and have put them all on video for your viewing pleasure...
Although the iPhone 4S retails for around $650 (16GB model), most folks can pick one up for significantly less than that. Carriers will generally absorb a large amount of the handset's cost as long as you promise to be a long-term customer.
Here in the US, all of the major carriers offer the 16GB iPhone 4S for $199 along with a two-year contract. And C-Spire Wireless, a southeastern regional operator, offers the entry-level iPhone 4S for just $149...
While we're fairly certain about most of the iPad 3's features and even its release date, pricing and configuration has remained a bit of a mystery. A purported iPad pricing matrix surfaced on the web earlier this week claiming that the new tablet would be more expensive than its predecessors, but otherwise we haven't heard a peep.
Well thankfully the folks over at 9to5Mac have broken the silence today with a new report that covers both storage configurations and pricing for the iPad 3. Want to know how much the new tablet will cost? Read on...
We've assumed for a long time that Apple used ultra-tough Corning glass in its iOS products. Corning, a US-based company that specializes in glass and ceramics, is the maker of the popular Gorilla Glass display cover found in several devices.
Apple's never said for sure whether or not it uses the scratch-resistant glass cover in its mobile gadgets. But that changed today when the company, possibly by accident, confirmed its relationship with Corning in its new Job Creation page...
Apple sent out invites earlier this week for a media event to take place in California next Wednesday. The company is expected to unveil the third iteration of its popular tablet, and possibly a new Apple TV, during the keynote.
The event is slated to take place at San Francisco's Yerba Buena Center for the Arts — the same location Apple used to show off its iPad 2. And it looks like the company has already started prepping for the festivities...
This definitely looks like it's going to be a big year of iOS hardware. By all accounts, Apple is set to unveil its new iPad next week with a Retina display and LTE 4G technology. And we expect an even bigger makeover for the company's handset line later this year.
But what about software? Last year Apple added more than 200 new features to its mobile operating system with iOS 5. So what does it have in store for the next iteration? Well whatever it is, it looks like the company is hard at work on it...
We've covered a number of great RSS reader apps on iDB over the past few years, but our favorites aren't hard to spot. Flipboard and Pulse News have both seen extra attention on our site due to their terrific user interfaces.
If you don't have at least one of these apps on your Spring board, you should reconsider. Their graphic-driven UIs make it extremely easy to follow your favorite tech sites while on the go, including iDB...
Earlier this week we talked about the possibility of Apple entering other markets to keep up its ridiculous growth pace. There's only so far the company's current iPhone and iPad products can take it before sales start to plateau.
When we mentioned the idea, we had no clue that the automotive industry was on Apple's list of potential new markets. But according to a recent job listing, the Mac-makers are in search of an automotive engineer for an undisclosed project...
The New York Post is reporting today that Apple is pushing ahead with plans to launch its own subscription TV service. The publication claims that Apple is looking to roll out the service by Christmas this year, despite serious push-back from major content providers.
We've been hearing rumors that Apple was working on its own streaming video service for over a year now, but this seems like one of the first times we've heard the news from a major outlet...
Even though we have a pretty good feeling that Apple is going to unveil its third ATV set top box next week, gossip is still bouncing around about Apple's full-scale television. We've been hearing rumors of an Apple TV set for several months now.
A lot of the chatter can be traced back to Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster. The firm's resident Apple expert has been the device's biggest proponent up to this point, and now he's back with some new information...
We know, or feel like we know, just about everything there is to know about Apple's next tablet — except its name. Most websites, including us, have just been assuming that since it will be the third iPad, it will be called the iPad 3.
But according to Gizmodo, the new device will actually be named the iPad HD. The site points to a couple of pieces of evidence to back its claims, including third-party cases and data from web traffic analytics...
