Apple’s iPad Mini – Leaked Pictures

All set for Apple to reveal its magical product iPad in smaller version which is reported to be called as iPad mini. According to a report from Bloomberg, the iPad mini might have a screen between 7 – 8 inches. However, it would not have the all powerful retina display. Bloomberg also says that the product could be launched as early as October.

 

 

“For the 7.85-inch panel, there’s a business plan for it, there’s a mass production target for it. And we know that it’s for Apple,” says Richard Shim, an NPD DisplaySearch analyst. Mr. Shim added “I don’t know the name of the product, but I know it’s going to be a tablet”. Shim said ” Production is likely imminent. Everything is getting set up. We know the lines. We know how many panels are going to come out of the sheets of glass.These are supply chain indications. By the very nature of the supply chain, these plans can be altered”

 

Shaw Wu, an analyst at Sterne Agee & Leach Inc. says that “It would be the competitiors’ worst nightmare. The ball is in Apple’s court”.

 

Other reports have claimed that the iPad Mini will be priced at $299. Estimates for production runs are about 35 million units in 2013.

 

 

 

 

 

 

With Google and Microsoft revealing their latest tablet devices Nexus 7 and Surface respectively, Its going to be real head-to-head war among the three giants.

Halloween Pumpkins Pictures

Sections of the pumpkin are cut out to make holes, often depicting a face, which may be either cheerful, scary, or comical. More complex carvings are becoming more commonly seen. Popular figures, symbols, and logos are some that can now be seen used on pumpkins. A variety of tools can be used to carve and hollow out the gourd, ranging from simple knives and spoons to specialized instruments, typically sold in holiday sections of North American grocery stores. Printed stencils can be used as a guide for increasingly complex designs. After carving, a light source (traditionally a candle) is placed inside the pumpkin and the top is put back into place. The light is normally inserted to illuminate the design from the inside and add an extra measure of spookiness. Sometimes a chimney is carved, too. It is possible to create surprisingly artistic designs, be they simple or intricate in nature.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Beautiful Horse Pictures

The Horse is one of two extant subspecies of Equus ferus, or the wild horse. It is an odd-toed ungulate mammal belonging to the taxonomic family Equidae. The horse has evolved over the past 45 to 55 million years from a small multi-toed creature into the large, single-toed animal of today. Horses and humans interact in a wide variety of sport competitions and non-competitive recreational pursuits, as well as in working activities such as police work, agriculture, entertainment, and therapy. Horses were historically used in warfare, from which a wide variety of riding and driving techniques developed, using many different styles of equipment and methods of control (wikipedia). Here are beautiful horse pictures for you all……….

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The following terminology is used to describe horses of various ages:

  • Foal: a horse of either sex less than one year old. A nursing foal is sometimes called a suckling and a foal that has been weaned is called a weanling.[12] Most domesticated foals are weaned at five to seven months of age, although foals can be weaned at four months with no adverse physical effects.
  • Yearling: a horse of either sex that is between one and two years old.
  • Colt: a male horse under the age of four. A common terminology error is to call any young horse a “colt”, when the term actually only refers to young male horses.
  • Filly: a female horse under the age of four.
  • Mare: a female horse four years old and older.
  • Stallion: a non-castrated male horse four years old and older.[18] The term “horse” is sometimes used colloquially to refer specifically to a stallion.
  • Gelding: a castrated male horse of any age.

Latest iOS Apps 2012

The iOS platform is extremely robust and well polished and thus provides developers and designers the opportunity to really get creative and make truly impressive works of art. So what are phone apps? Now a days iOS app development of different fields like business, entertainment, social networking, shopping, navigation, browsing etc is effectively using in mobile industry. Due to the increasing number of iPhone users, organizations can reach the customers in easy and effective ways via iPhone mobile applications.

We have compiled some iOS apps with new features that the latest iOS version contains.

CoPilot GPS

The free offline route planning and local exploring app allows you to navigate where you need to go without having to rely on your mobile connection. It provides detailed street maps and millions of useful points of interest, as well as the ability to locate local restaurants, stores, gas stations and more using quality 2D maps. But it also allows for an in-app upgrade to get 3D maps and voice-guided navigations.

Facebook

Now it’s easier than ever to interact with the world’s largest social network. Facebook is one of the world’s most powerful communication tools which is capable of keeping family all over the world in contact. Those people with an iPhone know how great the Facebook application is on the iPhone.

————————————————————

 FaceTime

FaceTime now works over cellular networks as well as Wi-Fi, so you can make and receive FaceTime calls wherever you happen to be. You can even make and receive FaceTime calls on your iPhone using your phone number. That means you can use FaceTime wherever you are, on any device. iPhone 5 has a camera on the front — perfectly tuned for FaceTime chatting — and an iSight camera on the back. You can switch between cameras during a call. So whoever you’re chatting with can see you, or they can see what you see.

Sparrow

Regarded by many as one of the best iOS email clients available, Sparrow is designed to provide an easy to use and efficient email system. With full IMAP support, the app is compatible with a wide range of email accounts, displays conversations in threads, and lets you directly attach photos and images when sending messages. You can deal with several email addresses within one account, enabling you to access both personal and business email while still keeping them separate.

————————————————————

Maps

Beautifully designed from the ground up (and the sky down), Maps changes the way you see the world. Map elements are vector based, so graphics and text are incredibly detailed — even when you zoom all the way in — and panning is smooth. Tilt and rotate to view an area, and Maps keeps the names of streets and places where they belong. Get visual and spoken turn-by-turn navigation and real-time traffic updates.

————————————————————

Passbook

Apple just announced a new iOS app on-stage at WWDC called Passbook that aims to store all of your “passes” — a category that includes boarding passes, store cards, and movie tickets. This could be a boon for consumers, but bad news for Square and other startups. The idea is to create one app that replaces a lot of the clutter in your wallet. So you can open up Passbook whenever you need to board a flight, get into a movie, or get a discount at the store — it looks like the passes are mostly, but not exclusively, redeemed using QR codes.

————————————————————

Shared Photo Stream

Now you can share just the photos you want, with just the people you choose. Simply select photos from the Photos app, tap the Share button, choose who you want to share your photos with, and they’re on their way. Friends using iCloud on an iOS 6 device get the photos delivered immediately in the Photos app or iPhoto.

————————————————————

Safari

iOS 6 brings even better web browsing to your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch through Safari. iCloud Tabs keeps track of which pages you have open on your devices, so you can start browsing on one device and pick up right where you left off, on whatever device is handy. Safari now saves web pages — not just links — in your Reading List, so you can catch up on your reading even when you can’t connect to the Internet.

————————————————————

Siri

Siri will soon be able do a lot more! She’ll speak more languages and provide the latest scores and stats for games, she’ll provides the latest movie reviews and showtimes and find the best restaurants in town and make reservations!

————————————————————

Vlingo

So iPhone 4S users already have Siri and she’s supposed to get better, but those who don’t have the latest version can get Vlingo for free, which is a voice activated virtual assistant for your iPhone 3GS or iPhone 4. The free download probably won’t be as smart as the newest Siri, but something is better than nothing.

You can download these above apps from iTunes

Apple’s New iPhone 5 – Pictures, Features and Specifications

Finally Apple launched iPhone 5. It is taller, leaner, lighter, shinier and packs in much more punch than ever. Apple gave it a completely new avatar made of glass and aluminium. Here are pictures and features of iPhone 5….

The iPhone 5 is Apple’s first smartphone capable of 4G, the super-fast mobile broadband technology that is due to begin in Britain within weeks. Earlier this week, mobile network EE announced plans to launch a 4G service imminently and the iPhone 5 is likely to be one of the handsets available to new customers.

The new Apple iPhone 5 is 18% thinner and 20% lighter than the 4S but runs twice as fast, with graphics that are twice as fast, thanks to a new processor. Apple has also upgraded the camera in the iPhone to include new features such as a low-light mode and a panorama feature. Picture credit: GLENN CHAPMAN/AFP/GettyImages

The smaller ‘Lightning’ connector means the iPhone 5 won’t connect to any existing docks or accessories you may have. For those, Apple will sell you an adaptor at £25. Picture: REUTERS/Beck Diefenbach

One change that will annoy many long-time customers is the removal of the dock connector that Apple has used in its devices since the 2003 iPod. The new connector is 80% smaller but will not work with existing accessories. Picture: David Paul Morris/Bloomberg

With the iPhone, Apple is shipping its new EarPods, designed after digitally scanning hundreds of ears. Picture: Jeff Chiu/AP

Apple also demonstrated iOS 6, its latest mobile operating system. Upgrades to the software include voice navigation for driving, a feature already available on many Android smartphones, as well as Passbook for storing electronic boarding passes, sports tickets and gift cards.

The iPhone 5 ships on September 21 in the United States, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore and Britain. Apple predicts it will sell eight million iPhones in the fourth quarter of this year. Picture: REUTERS/Beck Diefenbach

The iPod touch gets the same increased screen size as the iPhone 5 and, for the first time, comes in a range of colours. The colours make sense in that context and the new iPod touch does look very nice. It has a better camera too and a new processor, which means it can run more powerful apps. Games, in particular, should benefit enormously from the upgrade. Picture: EPA/APPLE

The iPod nano has been redesigned yet again. Now the nano is rectangular again, with a larger touchscreen and seven different colours. Bluetooth is built-in for the first time, as is full support for Nike+, which will be a bonus for those who like to track their fitness progress. Picture: REUTERS/Beck Diefenbach
