How to Make Sure You Receive iMessages on All Your iDevices

Sébastien Page ∙ October 22, 2011

iMessage is one of my favorite new features in iOS 5. It's simple, fast, and most importantly integrated right into the Messages app, which makes it even more compelling, assuming you have friends with iDevices as well.

If you have an iPhone your iMessages are sent to your phone number by default, which acts like your iMessage ID, if you will. If you have an iPad, you can only receive iMessages sent to your registered email address. But what happens if you want to receive all your iMessages on all of your iDevices?

State of the iOS 5 Jailbreak

Cody Lee ∙ October 22, 2011

After 4 months of seeding developer betas, Apple finally released iOS 5 to the masses last week. The update introduced over 200 new features, including several that closely mirrored jailbreak utilities.

But instead of being discouraged by Apple's efforts, the jailbreak community has stepped up its game. Not only are there several iOS 5-compatible packages available, but a jailbreak for the software has been around since day one...

T-Mobile US Eagerly Awaits the iPhone

Alex Heath ∙ Updated July 24, 2016

T-Mobile is the only main US carrier that doesn't carry the iPhone. It's currently unclear as to why Apple hasn't partnered with T-Mobile to sell the iPhone, but the most logical assumption would be that it has something to do with the AT&T/T-Mobile acquisition that is currently being reviewed by the FCC.

The CEO of T-Mobile has gone on the record time and time again to explain that his company really wants the iPhone. And Apple is apparently to blame for all of the unhappy, iPhone-less T-Mobile customers out there...

Enterprise Market Leaning Towards iPhone and iPad Instead of Android

Oliver Haslam ∙ Updated April 3, 2018

Apple's iOS platform rules the roost in the enterprise, according to new figures released by Good Technology.

The firm, which offers push e-mail, mobile device management, and security products for mobile phones, released the numbers that appear to show both the iPhone and iPad dominating device usage in the enterprise market.

According to Good Technology, the results show a "clear preference for Apple products," with the figures seemingly proving their point conclusively...

iPhone 3GS “Tremendously” Popular on AT&T

Guest Author ∙ October 21, 2011

After announcing the iPhone 4S pricing at its "Let's Talk iPhone" event on October 4th, Apple also announced that it would be further reducing the pricing for the older generation iPhone 3GS 8GB from $49 to $0 with a 2-year carrier agreement.

According to President and CEO of AT&T Mobility Ralph de la Vega, this price drop has translated to "tremendous" demand for the device...

Siri Can Also Search Bing and Yahoo

Oliver Haslam ∙ October 21, 2011

If you've spent any time with Siri, you may have noticed that you can actually ask it to search the web for pretty much anything. At this point, Siri fires up a Google search and populates the search field with whatever it thinks you asked. The degree of accuracy here very much depends on your accent and whether it's a full moon or not, but on the whole, it does the job fairly well.

But did you know that you can also have Siri work its magic with both the Microsoft Bing and Yahoo search engines? Well, you can...

iPhone Pre-Orders Go Live for 22 More Countries Today

Cody Lee ∙ October 21, 2011

When Apple initially launched the iPhone 4S last week, the handset was only available in 7 countries. Apple typically does this with its major product rollouts to help guard against stock constraints and to minimize the impact of early issues that may arise.

Well after a week of selling the iPhone 4S, it seems like Apple is confident that the product is ready for prime time. Next week, the company's latest handset will go on sale in 22 more countries around the globe. And apparently, pre-orders have just begun...

A Week Later: My iPhone 4S Review

Sébastien Page ∙ October 21, 2011

I know I'm late to the whole iPhone 4S review thing, but to be honest, I never really understood how you could give a good review of a device after using it for two days – that's why I take my time. I've been waiting for over a year for this new device so I really didn't want to rush into a quick review without having fully used it for an extended period of time.

Now that I have been able to play around with virtually every feature of the new iPhone 4S, I think it's time for my late review. There is some good, some bad, and yes, some ugly…

Verizon Announces Over 2 Million iPhones Sold Last Quarter

Cody Lee ∙ October 21, 2011

Over the past few days, companies have been announcing their earnings for the previous quarter. As usual, this means that we get to hear iPhone sales numbers. Yesterday, AT&T announced that it sent 2.7 million iPhones out in Q3. So, how'd Verizon do?

Since its arrival back in Februrary, the iPhone has been Verizon's top-selling smartphone. Customers continue to pass up the carrier's all-star lineup of Droid devices for Apple's handset. Today, Verizon announced that it sold over 2 million iPhones last quarter...

First iPhone 4S Commercial Airs Featuring Siri

Cody Lee ∙ October 20, 2011

The first commercial starring Apple's latest handset has just hit the airwaves. And as you might have guessed, the focus of the ad is the company's new Siri feature. For some folks, this may have been the first time they have seen it in action.

One of Apple's strong suits is its ability to market its products to the average consumer, and this commercial is no exception. It demonstrates everyday uses for the new voice control system, and leaves you wanting to know more...

Some Scenes From “The Avengers” Movie Were Shot with an iPhone

Oliver Haslam ∙ October 20, 2011

If you're the kind of iPhone user that reads blogs about, well, iPhones, then the chances are you also fall into the category some like to call "geek." It's no longer a derogatory term; being a geek means you tend to like things like smartphones, computers, and comics.

If all that sounds like you, then chances are you'll like this latest tidbit to come out of Hollywood. It turns out that the upcoming Avengers movie was partly filmed on one of Apple's little iPhones, instead of the rather expensive cameras movie studios usually use.

How cool is that? Very, very cool indeed...
