WWDC 2010 online translation on iPhonity.com

We are pleased to announce that on 7th of June, 2010, at 10.00am PDT, iPhonity.com will start the online translation of Stevenote from Apple’s WWDC 2010. Everybody thinks that Steve Jobs will announce the new version of the iPhone. But we’ll see.

iPhone OS 4.0 announced: Multitasking and more!

The new OS will ship in June (Fall for iPad, and a developer preview is available today) and has the following new or updated features:
• Multitasking
• Fast app switching
• Local notifications
• App folders
• A new Mail app
• iBooks
• Custom backgrounds
• Game Center
• iAd advertising
• 5x digital zoom
• Bluetooth keyboards

When the software ships in the summer, iPhone 3GSes and iPod Touch 3rd-gens devices will get all of the new features. The iPhone 3G and Touch 2G will get “many things,” which doesn’t include multitasking. I repeat: the iPhone 3G won’t get multitasking, ever. iPhone 2Gs will be left on a hillside somewhere to die of exposure, or something.

Apple Big Shots Surprise iPad Shoppers

Palo Alto, CA, United States (AHN) – Apple CEO Steve Jobs surprised shoppers at a Palo Alto, Calif. mall Friday who were among the first to buy the much talked about iPad tablet computer, and people waiting in line for the iPad’s debut in San Jose were joined by Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak.

The mouse-less computer allows users to access the Web and other applications by swiping their fingers across the 10-inch screen.

The San Jose Mercury News reports that Jobs talked with customers and browsed the shelves of the Valley Fair Mall Apple store, and Wozniak compared waiting in line on the first day of the product’s launch with waiting in line for concert tickets.

The iPad starts at $499 for a 16-gigabyte basic models and is priced as high as $829 for models equipped with Wi-Fi and 3G networks.

Industry watchers are waiting to see whether the iPad goes beyond being a niche product, or if it revolutionizes the tablet computer industry.

Early sales estimates indicate that Apple sold more than 700,000 iPads on opening day.

By allheadlinenews.com

iPad (Apple Tablet) announced: GPS, WiFi starting from $499

Prices start at $499 for the sleek, full-color, half-inch thin gadget that is designed for a variety of media, from videos to games to electronic books and newspapers.

Apple is using the first chip to come out of its PA Semi acquisition in its new iPad, a processor called the Apple A4. Apple CEO Steve Jobs made the announcement at the media event Wednesday where the iPad was unveiled, according to Engadget’s coverage of the event, where he said, “It’s powered by our own silicon. The 1GHz Apple A4 chip. It screams.”

Steve Jobs takes leave from Apple

We officially heard about the hormone imbalance earlier this month, but it seems the health issues concerning Steve Jobs are more serious than first thought, with the Apple boss now starting a leave of absence. The intention is to return in June. The full letter reads:

Team,

I am sure all of you saw my letter last week sharing something very personal with the Apple community. Unfortunately, the curiosity over my personal health continues to be a distraction not only for me and my family, but everyone else at Apple as well. In addition, during the past week I have learned that my health-related issues are more complex than I originally thought.

In order to take myself out of the limelight and focus on my health, and to allow everyone at Apple to focus on delivering extraordinary products, I have decided to take a medical leave of absence until the end of June.

I have asked Tim Cook to be responsible for Apple's day to day operations, and I know he and the rest of the executive management team will do a great job. As CEO, I plan to remain involved in major strategic decisions while I am out. Our board of directors fully supports this plan.

I look forward to seeing all of you this summer.

Steve

Steve Jobs has just revealed the NEW iPhone 3G!!!

The Apple iPhone 3G revolutionized the mobile phone industry by breaking the rules and taking telecommunications technology a notch higher. This phone has it all—it is equipped with e-mail, web-browsing, and local Wi-Fi connectivity among others. The iPhone 3G has faster 3G data speeds compared to its 3G-capable counterparts.

Another function that made this phone exceptional is its Assisted GPS (A-GPS) feature. This built-in feature allows users to use GPS to locate the nearest hospital, gasoline station, bank and other important places. iPhone 3G also has up to 5.5 hours of talktime and about 72 hours of standby time. In addition to these features, the screen of this phone is ideal for viewing images and watching videos from the Internet.

This phone is specifically designed to enhance mobile phone experience in the 21st century. This phone is one of the easiest phones ever with a touch screen feature that allows users to make selections by simply touching the screen. iPhone, iPhone 3G's predecessor, was Time Magazine's 2007 invention of the year. The latest iPhone is out to outdo its predecessor's success.
Now, what we'll have:

3G
GPS
Video Camera
Improved everything

AND…

8GB version for $199 and 16GB version for $299!!!
