It doesn’t seem all that long ago that Apple was in danger of going out of business yet now they are the world’s second largest company (in terms of market cap) and not too far away from snatching the No.1 position held by Exxon. Apple, maker of the Mac, the iPod, iPhone and iPad, surpassed Chinese oil giant PetroChina during trading on Thursday to become the world’s second-largest company in terms of market value. Apple shares hit a record 292.76 dollars during trading on Wall Street, giving the California gadget-maker a market capitalization of 266 billion dollars, more than PetroChina’s 265 billion dollars.

- by iphone-tips-tricks.com - Dirt cheap phone calls and SMS messages, that is what I want on my iPhone and iPod Touch. In Europe, many mobile providers are starting charging calls per minute in stead of seconds. Which means, they charge me for 2 minutes if my iPhone call duration is 61 seconds in stead of charging me for 61 seconds – Those b*stards! – But they will pay for that. I will explain

Getting your app to be discovered amongst a galaxy of options out there in the mobile ‘appspace’ is rapidly becoming the key to success or failure for new services (as well as for existing brands). One of the key decisions developers, entrepreneurs and companies alike need to make is whether their app should be free or whether it should be premium. There are good reasons to go down either path.

I will be presenting some ideas from my book, Location Aware Applications, next week in Malta, which made me think about an issue that keeps popping up time and again in mobile development: how to get a great app downloaded by thousands of users. With an ‘app universe’ of over 300,000 applications , over 8 mobile development platforms and over 50 app stores to choose from, it is has never been this tough to pick the right distribution option(s). And if you zoom into individual App Stores, the level of detail becomes even more
While “gaming mice” usually steal most of the limelight, there is a very good argument to be made that your keyboard plays just as big a role in the success of your gaming endeavors. Logitech and their G-series keyboards are one such great example of what a gaming keyboard should act and feel like. Today I am going to look at the all new Logitech G510 Gaming Keyboard .

Today RIM (Research in Motion) finally introduced the world to the BlackBerry Playbook. The Playbook is a 7-inch tablet that RIM hopes will be a healthy competitor to the Apple iPad , and runs its own custom version of the BlackBerry Tablet OS. The insides of this thing sound pretty good as well, and almost put the iPad to shame: a dual-core 1GHz processor, 1GB RAM, front and rear facing cameras that both support high definition, Flash 10.1 with hardware acceleration, HDMI out, USB, and HTML5 support. It’s got a widescreen 1024 x 600 display that supports multi-touch, and RIM was proud to announce that the Playbook will connect with BlackBerry enterprise servers right out of the box.

Over the weekend, Apple released iTunes 10.0.1, which mainly adds a sidebar to the music library for interaction with their Ping social network . The change makes it easier to “like” and “post” music that’s in your iTunes library to Ping, without having to actually go into the Ping area of the store.

We’ve seen some talk about the HP Slate coming back. It was canned several months ago, but just recently we’ve started to hear about reviews and product spotted out in the wild. Most recently is a blog post from Engadget [source for these images]: It’s well known the Slate was canceled back in March and I find it very unlikely the company would about-face yet again to re-launch the tablet PC. My theory is the guy posting video on the web, is a guy who got his hands on a prototype unit while it was in development. The HP Slate most likely had hundreds if not thousands of prototypes made and clearly some of them have leaked into the public sector. The HP Slate shown in the video on Engadget’s site does show so interesting tips. For example the processing time to switch between landscape and portrait. We also like the SD and USB connectivity along with nice dock station for the tablet PC. In our opinion, these to features alone, set it apart from the iPad product. Of course, we’ll leave it up to you to decide.
