Apple’s New Tablet to out in September! (Rumour)

The Blogosphere is hot with Rumors Buzzing in from all corners. All top blogs like TechCrunch, Mashable and Engadget are blogging about this. And now it’s Financial Time’s Which has added on to the rumors!

According to Financial Times Apple seems to be in a deal with Four largest record labels which aim to increase Digital Album sales and Apple aim’s to increase iTunes sales. And to achieve this Apple is supposed to be launching a new Tablet. The Tablet is supposed to more like a iPod touch than a iPhone.

Phone features may-be available. The screen size would be around 10 inch with touch features and it is supposed to be shipping around Christmas Festival. It is supposed to be more like a iPod touch with Wireless features same as iPod touch, downloading via iTunes.apples tablet pc

Companies like EMI, Sony Music, Warner Music have signed up with Apple to bang up the Digital Music Market. Apple seems to have stepping in a market where most of the Companies have failed including Microsoft and this project has been named “CockTail”. Sounds funny, but yes that may be the name!

Apple has revolutionized the way we share and listen to music with it’s products, iPod and iTunes. This may be the next hit. Many Experts say that Apple’s Tablet may be the perfect killer for Amazon’s Kindle.

What makes me wonder if that these rumors aren’t true then will it actually inspire Apple to make something like this? Seems so!

Thanks Mashable and Financial Times.

Why is Twitter Banned in the White House?

Twitter seems to provide the US president Barack Obama the largest platform online to make his opinion public. Same with White House. They both have a combined, mind blowing 2.6 Million Followers and growing. But then if that’s so, then why is it banned in the White House?

White House Computers have been blocking twitter. No Reason Stated but it’s quite obvious that this may be done to not allow Secret of the White house from Being Leaked! But if Obama can keep up a Blackberry with him, the people at White House better think of a way to get twitter working out there!

Here’s a Video from Youtube where the White House Press Secretary tell us about Twitter being blocked in the white house.

FaceBook to be the Next Twitter? Maybe

Latest buzz is that FaceBook users found that they saw updates from users who didn’t add them as friends but had sent a friend request for them too add.

This may be a precursor of the Twitter like Follow feature on FaceBook. It seems facebook is trying to become more like the new twitter especially after releasing the new version of Facebook with Real Time updates. FaceBook had promised us about this Follow Like feature some months back so maybe this is a part of it. Nothings officially confirmed so we are still waiting for their response.

I am getting bugged, any features anyone?

Thanks TechCrunch.

iTunes 8.2.1 Back on Palm web OS 1.1 : But how?

Apple’s Latest release of iTunes 8.2.1 had disabled Palm Sync but the web OS 1.1 re-enabled it! Anyone wondering how?

Palm’s Web OS simply identifies itself as a Apple’s Product by  using Apple’s vendor id as it’s own.  Here’s what you will see when you plug a Palm Pre into your iTunes 8.2.1

Product ID:    0×8002
Vendor ID:    0x05ac  (Apple Inc.)
Version:    0.16
Manufacturer:    Palm Inc.

So it’s clear, that’s the Trick Palm is using. Earlier, before Apple blocked the device it was a Palm’s Product named iPod but now it’s a Apple’s Product named iPod.

But the Vendor Sign-up form clearly states that

Unauthorized use of assigned or unassigned USB Vendor ID Numbers and associated Product ID Numbers are strictly prohibited.

Well the fight get’s more and more interesting with every step, we’ll keep you updated on this!

Bill gates huge Break-Up Facebook : Yes it’s true!

Bill Gates was recently at New Delhi for receiving the Indira Gandhi Prize for Peace, Disarmament and Development, for his Charity Organization. Well apart from this he spoke out that he he was quitting FaceBook.

Yes, It’s true. The reason is

There were too many friend requests. It had crossed over 10,000!

Well Bill has taken the right step, it’s nearly impossible to keep up with over 10,000 people! But if you really want to, then Bill please try twitter!

Bill also stated that he was “not that big at text messaging” nor is he a “24-hour-a-day tech person“.

Apart from that he also stated that

All these tools of tech waste our time if we’re not careful.

Very true, and that’s what i wrote in my last post! I hope so that a day doesn’t come when Bill might stop using Windows! :P
