Teaser: Samsung Galaxy Tab

Jonne Eilimö | August 24, 2010 21:25 | 0 comments | source

Here’s a teaser for you of the Samsung Galaxy Tab. The Galaxy Tab will compete with the Apple iPad, and will come some pretty neat features not seen on the iPad.

The Galaxy Tab will have a 7″ screen and a set of capacitive buttons. It will run on Android 2.2, and that will ensure you the “full web experience” seen in the video. And by the full experience, they mean Adobe’s Flash. HD video playback, e-reader functionality, Swype keyboard and a rear camera with LED flash should also be features of the Galaxy Tab.

The Samsung Galaxy Tab will be announced on September 2nd, at the IFA conference in Berlin, Germany.

Sounds pretty neat, doesn’t it?

Remove Background SBSettings Will Speed Up Your iOS 4 Device

Jonne Eilimö | August 22, 2010 08:21 | 0 comments |

Your iPhone 3G/3GS running a little slow on iOS 4? You can fix this by installing a simple SBSettings controller, that will disable all backgrounding tasks, and hence make your phone faster. This will of course disable multitasking and fast app switching, but you will have faster phone.

To install this, simply open up Cydia on your jailbroken iPhone and search for Background Remover SBSetting and install it. After this you need to enable the ‘kill switch’ in SBSettings.

White iPhone 4 Unboxed on Video

Jonne Eilimö | August 20, 2010 08:45 | 0 comments | source

iPhone 4 White

The video looks authentic and it looks like an iPhone actually MADE my Apple, not some DIY white iPhone 4 thing. For instance the flash on this device looks legit, with its silver border. The silver border didn’t look like this on the DIY white covers for the iPhone 4.

Hit View Post to see the video.

Orange UK: No White iPhone 4s Until End of This Year

Jonne Eilimö | August 11, 2010 19:01 | 0 comments | source

iPhone 4 White

Orange UK have emailed customers who were interested in ordering a white iPhone 4, that they won’t get it before the end of this year.

We wanted to let you know that there won’t be any white iPhone 4′s in the UK until the end of the year.

If you’re happy to wait another few months we’ll let you know as soon as they’re back in stock.

Want an iPhone 4 now?

Alternatively, if you want it now, click here or visit your local Orange shop to get the iPhone 4 Black 16GB or 32GB today.

It’s not sure whether Orange has gotten this from Apple, or if they rely on the press release that Apple issued last month. Apple told that the white iPhone 4 will be available later this year, but didn’t give a more specific time for it. If Orange UK’s info is correct, we’ll still have to wait for another 3-4 months for the white iPhone 4.
