Those who wanted a tablet Apple could soon see their wish fulfilled. According to a source MacDailyNews who had announced iTunes wireless one week before the official announcement, there will be a sort of Mac Book touch in October. And their source was not stingy with details.

A new rumor is circling the web. Apparently Apple has started to prepare for new Mac laptops which are supposed to be launched in the near future. A report in the Commerical Times showed an order for MacBook displays in the Q3 a while back ago while now the paper is reporting that Apple has increased by 20% this quarter its order of notebook-use printed circuit boards.

The U.S. patent office has published a few days Apple signed three patents covering a single product: a laptop that can become a tablet. The patents have been filed by Apple in January 2007, and are thus following the launch of iPhone. The handset whose patents have the particularity of being converted into a tablet simply by sliding the screen to cover up the keyboard. In this way the user can decide depending on the needs to use the product as tablets or as a simple MacBook.

Once you’re back to talking about a laptop Multi Touch. Since years running networked computers rumor about this long-awaited by fans. The indiscretions, however, are increasingly precise and this could mean that the launch of this product is closer than we think… or maybe not!

First of all here is the pics of iPhones new and old: The iPhone 3G positioned next to the original iPhone. Even though the 3G iPhone looks smaller, it’s a hair thicker.

The Apple iPhone 3G is here, and it promises to be an improvement over the original iPhone. But how much of an improvement is it really? We take a look at the new iPhone 3G from all angles.

The iPhone 3G has almost the same look as the old iPhone, yet it doesn’t. It has the same glass display and Home button, but the sides are smoother and it’s a tad thicker. Though the iPhone 2.0 firmware update brings this functionality to old iPhones too, one of the most notable aspects of the new iPhone 3G is the App Store feature that lets you buy and download applications directly to your phone.The iPhone 3G has slightly more tapered edges, but that’s an illusion that hides the fact that it’s ever so slightly thicker (0.02 inch thicker to be exact). The iPhone 3G comes with a plastic back instead of the metal exterior of the original. The 16GB comes in black or white, while 8GB iPhones will only be in black. The iPhone 3G has the same ol’ 2-megapixel camera as the original. Finally, Apple decided on a flush 3.5mm headset jack for the iPhone 3G, which is a welcome change from the recessed headset jack on the original.

Just like the original, the iPhone 3G fits nicely in the palm of your hand. The iPhone 3G has the same icons and Home screen as the original. The iPhone 3G is certainly slim, but might not be big enough for a pocket. It’s small enough to not weigh down a purse or bag, though. One of the biggest features of the new iPhone 3G is that it has GPS. Here is a screenshot of Google Maps pinpointing our exact location. iPhone 3G comes with the new iPhone 2.0 software that supports Exchange e-mail, as well as access to the brand new MobileMe, which is Apple’s own solution for personal e-mail syncing. A very nice feature of the iPhone 2.0 firmware update that comes standard with the iPhone 3G is that it lets you purchase and download applications directly to the phone. You can get anything from games to productivity applications, in a range of prices.The iPhone 3G’s video player has the same interface as the original. Of course, one of the highlights of the iPhone is its full HTML Safari browser. The iPhone 3G comes with a full slew of language support, thanks to the iPhone 2.0 firmware.

This was announced Steve Jobs himself, during a press conference in the United States: the night of Thursday, that this will open the App Store, and will be presented to the public over 500 applications for iPhone and iPod Touch. Among these, says with satisfaction Jobs, a slice of 25% will be free and among the remaining fee (precisely 90% of remaining) will be offered for sale at a price of about $ 9.99 (about 6.35 €) or down from there .

Apple press heavily on his App Store, the same patron of the company says: When IBM launched the PC, this is not decollò until people are not discovered software. Finally, it is estimated that about one third of total applications are ready to launch games. So yes projectors bulleted sales, but also on the official store for the terminal has always expected more.

Should the matter briefly. Users Canadians are not happy tariffs marketing of ‘iPhone 3G proposed by Rogers, and have also mobilized in a gathering signatures to be attached to’ Open Letter addressed to no less than Steve Jobs in person. And it seems that Apple has responded to with a kind of “sentence”.

It appears, perhaps because of manifest general discontent, that Apple intends to reduce to 10 or 20 the number of 3G iPhone that the shops of the Canadian receive for the start of sales. How to say, Apple has no power to require an explicit change to rates but can do a lot of pressure in that respect. Meanwhile, another rumor has it that Rogers is already discharging much of the part-time staff who had been recruited to manage the huge influx of public but, under the circumstances, at this point seems very unlikely.

Currently, the site of the petition has reached almost 44,000 signatures share.

Doug Field, Chief Technology Officer of Segway has left the producer of the special people mover two-wheeled Assigned Cupertino: ricoprirà Indeed, the position of VicePresident for Product Design at Apple.

Apple would seem to require anything but new blood in the field of industrial design: in the stables of Cupertino is in fact a horse race as Jonathan Ive, which for several years is awarded the prize as the best designers in his field. In reality Field not ruberà work to Ive, but arrives for alleggerirne the load: a Field will be the responsibility of daily work, while Ive oversee the work of the division.

The curious, which made this nomination unexpected, lies in the lack of consideration that Steve Jobs has expressed in the past for the design of the Segway. Put yourself in front of one of the first prototypes innovative means of transport, iCEO did not hide his disappointment: “I think it sucks!” Was the lapidary comment.

Clearly, Steve has changed my mind: good job to Doug Field, then, because apparently they have really need…
