The new iPod Touch 4G comes up with a lot of new hardware making it a bit closer to being "an iPhone 4 without a phone". But really, do you know how the new iPod Touch compares to the iPhone 4?
The guys over at letemsvetemapplem.eu have conducted some tests that show that besides being a few months younger than the iPod Touch 4G, the iPhone 4 still kicks ass...
Apple released iOS 4.2 Beta for iPad a few hours ago and video walkthroughs of it are already circulating online. Here are 2 of them, courtesy of Engadget and App Advice.
Yes, by the time you finished reading the title of this post, Foxconn produced about 5 iPhones. Now I let you imagine how many iPhones are made in the time it's going to take you to read the rest of this post.
Last week we shared with you an article about where the iPhone is made, in which the CEO of Foxconn said his company makes 137,000 iPhones per day. If you do the math, that's almost 1.6 iPhone per second...
This video should bring up lots of memories to our older readers. TUAW found some footage of an Einstein Newton emulator running on what seems to be an iPhone 3G or 3GS. The thing is painfully slow but the developer said he'll be working on it.
I love seeing those kind of useless hacks. I mean, realistically, no one will ever use that but it's just great some people have the passion and the skills to make it happen. Video after the jump.
Last week we reported that GreenPois0n might become the next iOS 4.1 jailbreak, and it turns out it now has its own dedicated website over at www.GreenPois0n.com. A quick look at the whois information for this domain name shows that it was created on September 11, 2009 by an anonymous registrant.
Redmond Pie believes it's a sign that GreenPois0n is close to completion and that it might indeed be the next jailbreak for iOS 4.1. While that makes sense, I still have doubts for the simple reason that a website is no sign of a future release. We saw that with LimeRa1n before...
Apple just released iOS 4.2 Beta to developers. As 9 to 5 Mac noted, it's not only available for iPhones as you can also download iOS 4.2 Beta for iPad, which will bring over-the-air printing.
As usual when a new firmware comes out, it is recommended that jailbreakers and unlockers stay away from it if they don't want to lose the ability to jailbreak/unlock in the future...
So Google thinks they are pretty cool with their instant search capabilities, do they? What if you could search for iOS applications and have the same kind of results but it took you to iTunes with just one click?
According to Life Hacker that's exactly what a little web-app called App Store Instant does. After just a few letters into the search and a list of possible entries come up with pictures and brief descriptions attached...
Everyone has had times in our lives where a good hour on the couch with Dr. Shrink to help sort out the root of our inner turmoils. What if you could receive the same sort of therapeutic release by simply opening an app on your iPhone?
Ideas like that are exactly what a Business Insider article focuses on. Various accredited universities and academics discuss the development of apps designed to specifically center on whatever mental heath issue you may be dealing with. If it sounds a bit peculiar, you're right on the money...
Communication agency Dentsu London worked on a project for one of their clients. Part of the brief was to "make the future magic". The iPad truly is magical in this video.
I always try to cover the latest jailbreak apps for iPhone here on iDB, and from time to time I stumble onto some real gems. But let's be honest, I don't know everything there is to know about jailbreak apps, and I think I might be missing a few good ones, which is why I'd like to know what your favorite jailbreak app is.
Let's put it this way... if you had to go to a desert island and you could only have one jailbreak app on your iPhone, which one would it be? I know, it's stupid but you get the idea...
The guys over at VIPad have a picture of a giant iPad table, apparently at some electronics store. Can you imagine having that in your living room? That would go very well with the iPhone icons coasters ;)
Airports give us our funniest stories. People hauling every piece of garbage they own across the country with them often results in some hilarious revelations. Enter, Steve Jobs.
Gizmodo has a brief from a Bloomberg outlet that says that while Steve Jobs was getting his luggage at Kansai International Airport in Japan this July, security officials were forced to apprehend Jobs momentarily for having ninja throwing stars in his bags. It didn't stop there...
