Keynote predictions scorecard
The Mac Observer — Keynote predictions scorecard by on January 6th, 2009 at 6:11 PM The Macworld Expo keynote is over. How well did I do with my last minute predictions ? Not very well. I started off with a bang, nailing that new versions of iLife and iWork would be the initial announcements at the Expo. From there, I quickly headed downhill. There was no preview of Mac OS X 10.6. Much worse, none of the hardware that I had anticipated showed up. No Mac mini, no new iMacs or Mac Pros. Instead, the lone hardware introduction was one that i did not predict: a 17" MacBook Pro. In truth, I had considered that a 17" MacBook ...

Article: iPhone Gems: Instant Messaging Apps, Take Two
iLounge | All Things iPod, iPhone, iTunes and beyond — Instant messaging should be free for iPhone and iPod touch users. Period. Exclamation point. From iChat to AOL Instant Messenger and numerous other popular products, Mac and PC users have no need to pay for IM apps, and the core feature—text-based messaging—is a very modest use of both Apple’s pocket devices and the wireless networks they depend on. Unlimited data plans shouldn’t require users to buy special apps to enjoy their simplest benefits. [image] But in the absence of an Apple-developed iChat app for iPhone and iPod touch, third-party instant messaging apps have popped up to fill the gap. We ...

Five fab apps for iPhone OS 3.0 and the new 3GS
MacBytes.com — Apple Inc. has an interesting pie-slicing problem coming as far as developers of iPhone (and iPod Touch) applications are concerned. All of those first- and second-generation iPhones run the same operating system -- the just-released iPhone OS 3.0 ...

Are Push Notifications Better Than Background Apps?
jkOnTheRun — When Apple announced its push notifications for mobile software titles, I was skeptical. That’s not surprising, because I was raised in a multitasking world. In that world, you just run multiple apps at the same time and flip around from one bit of software to another. It’s the world that we all live in today with our computers. But the mobile world isn’t the same as the desktop world. Running multiple applications can hit the CPU and radios harder on our handsets, which, in turn, use more battery power. So Apple’s idea is to manage software events on its servers and ...

BeeJive IM Review
The Gadgeteer — I’ve always wondered why Apple’s Messages app on the iPhone didn’t support IM like iChat. I’ve tried a couple different IM apps on the iPhone, but never found one I liked and for some reason I never saw or heard of BeejiveIM. That is until the recent news stories showing pirated versions of the app popping up ‘PC LOAD LETTER’ messages, stopping pirates from using the app. ( For anyone not familiar with that, it’s an HP Laserjet message from the 90’s made into a hilarious bit in the movie Office Space. ) … [visit site to read ...
