Intel processors could build the next Apple
Apple
does not hide: the company will make every effort to relocate a maximum
production or at least stop Samsung depend on when it comes to
competing products. Intel could enter into this plan.
Today, despite all the court cases, Apple is dependent on many suppliers worldwide. Sometimes they are neutral, not pulling revenue from the sale of that component. We thus find companies like ST Microelectronics. At other times, however, the economy becomes political, and Apple is forced to negotiate with the enemy. We know for example that for several generations, Samsung built processors AX Apple and is also a supplier for the famous Retina display.
This means in other words, Apple is dependent upon Samsung, who is also his rival on the market of the commercial product. To overcome this absurd situation, there are not thousands of solutions: we must simply change providers - and find a capable and also cheap, which is probably the most difficult part of the transition. According to a source close to Apple and Intel, the two giants are discussing a possible partnership for years to come.
Intel could then become the processor manufacturer for Apple. This position does not strengthen the Intel brand, since that would be a sub-contracting Apple would command processors and Intel should follow a precise specification and imposed. That said, as reported by the analyst Pat Bekcer Junior is an offer that Intel can not refuse. In a difficult position in the mobile processor, this partnership with electronics giant mobile is a godsend for the firm. Of course, this does nothing for his reputation, but it could be a regular entry money and consistent that would otherwise finance R & D.

Angry Birds: If you did not play four years of existence, the game is now free on iOS
If we are in a society where everything goes faster and faster, it seems that this is also the case of the passage of shareware freeware - if not abandonware. Angry Birds is perhaps the most famous mobile game in the world and after dozens of variations, it continues to gain success with each release. On Android, the game has always been free and funded by advertising, but on iOS, it has always cost one to two euros depending on the version.
Yes, even the very first edition of Angry Birds, the original, which has propelled the birds in the field in 2009 dollars has never been free. After so many variations, it seems that the golden sparrow egg is more profitable if a paid version and Rovio decided to make this free mobile game ancestor. So you will find two versions, standard and HD for iPad free on the App Store. If you've never played Angry Birds, this is perhaps the moment ...

Tablets have passed smartphones in terms of amount of web traffic
Of the total hours of surfing recorded in recent years, smartphones have continued to snatch ground on traditional computing. This situation could have changed.
The smartphone is connected to the internet for about 6 years and yet consumption page are the owners of these machines already connected may be exceeded by a new competitor from the same milieu of mobility: the touch pad. Since the iPad, the tablet market has exploded and after the release of the Nexus 7, he stretched very far towards democratization through low prices. And this trend is confirmed in a study by Adobe, the famous developer of Photoshop.
According to their statements, would take the tablets for 8% of the consultation web pages, while smartphones are just behind with 7%. Everything else is still occupied by traditional computing. Another interesting figure is to be noted: a user of tablet bed 70% more pages than a smartphone user. This illustrates the inactivity of the use of a touch pad: Often, when you read an article on a smartphone, we expect it to load and then traverses in transport. Reading on touchpad can take hours, if you sink into a sofa with a good Wi-Fi
The study reveals a link between last living and possession of a touch pad which is admittedly a luxury. In online shopping, orders placed by a touch pad would cost 54% more expensive than on past smartphone and 19% higher than those spent on a PC. Here we find a hierarchy actually quite representative: the smartphone is now a inexpensive tool which may be suitable as a single point of access to the internet in a precarious financial situation. The desktop computer, more expensive but still a versatile choice means. The tablet, it is a pleasure object presupposes a comfortable situation - so it makes sense that users can spend more.

UK: Apple has not infringed Samsung patents
Front in the war that pits two giants, often referred skirmishes in which Apple attacks Samsung. The reverse is also ... the result is substantially the same.
The last two years, if you followed the news a little bit of new technologies, in particular mobile technology, you know that Samsung and Apple are not the best of friends. The two firms have launched a legal battle and media to know, finally, that the whole world is waiting, hungry children abused workers, civilians dying in conflicts in the Middle East to SDF spring waiting impatiently which Samsung or Apple, copied to the other.
United States, justice was rather oriented regional preference condemning Samsung widely enough in the largest trial that pitted the two firms. In the UK, the final verdict is rather similar, even if the attack this time came from Korean: he said Apple had infringed its vrevets the transmission of data via 3G. English justice ruled: Apple does not infringe nothing and should not pound Samsung.
Samsung is obviously not happy and lawyers paid in the year for this kind of trial will examine the report of the Court of Justice to see if it is possible to appeal. Apple has not commented, but anonymous sources have noted an increase in the budget champagne and party favors.

Cheap iPhone: Qualcomm processors could provide
Difficult to recognize with certainty that Apple will offer here a short time a low-cost iPhone. While rumors have lot of sense and that the manufacturer would do well to follow, it is always difficult to give details about a vehicle that has not yet been officially announced. So when it comes to dealing with rumors about the components of a rumor ... you see the size of the tweezers to take.
That said, if you take the time to relay it is that it is more relevant: it was heard that Apple has chosen Qualcomm Snapdragon processor for this cheaper iPhone. Qualcomm has a solution which integrates a powerful processor and a modem 4G, mass produced for a few months now: Apple would be wrong to seek to invest heavily in R & D and place orders to multiple companies when a manufacturer has everything at your fingertips .

Samsung Galaxy S4 and iPhone 5S compatible with wireless charging, the rumor that we mad ...
An
article from a Chinese site controversial was the starting point of a
rumor relayed by several other sites, and would like the Samsung Galaxy
S4 and iPhone are next with capacity wireless recharging. The problem is that even the basic article, reliability also questionable, do not bring it. Explanations.
If you follow the news about the mobile phone, you may have already seen here and there articles mentioning the possibility that the two most anticipated smartphones of the year, namely the Samsung Galaxy S4 and iPhone 5S (or whatever their names are in the final), are compatible with wireless charging. If this rumor is quite interesting and goes in the direction of the story, however, it is based on nothing.
Originally, it was once again DigiTimes, a site to sulfurous reputation, which has launched, based on his famous "industry sources." If this site came out one or two scoops in the past, it is worth noting that he has shown especially with rumors smokers and side plate. For once, DigiTimes is not even entirely to blame. He reported in a future article that Apple and Samsung smartphones could benefit from wireless technology.
It is mentioned in the said Article the Korean manufacturer was close to adopt the international standard Qi while Apple would opt for an internal solution. Only "industry sources" support this pseudo-revelation. Indeed, there is little doubt that words, these two manufacturers, and all others for that matter, will eventually provide their mobile devices such capabilities. Moreover, during the presentation of the Galaxy S3 last year, Samsung unveiled a wireless charger for the smartphone. However, the Korean has not sold thereafter. DigiTimes even takes care to point out in his article that it is not for the coming months and the Galaxy S4 may not be concerned. Based on these factors alone, several sites have not failed to relay that it is the next two high-end smartphones from Samsung and Apple are compatible. You can read and reread until you drop the article (in English), the unreliability remember, you will come to the same conclusion as us it is an outright distortion about that are required.

iPhone is an early prototype picture shows
You might think a brief written in 2006 or 2007, dealing with the future Apple product that no one knows anything yet. However, this time it's in retrospect that we can see what the site looked like on the smartphone pommesque.
And this is not really what we imagined. Apparently, in the minds of the designers of the time, the iPhone was not even a telephone. We would rather close an iPad Mini, but it is still well away from this machine too. The device is more like a mini computer touch as a phone or a tablet, with its enormous components and multiple ports. Moreover, at the time, it was not run MacOS and iOS.
This is what is impressive with this machine: at the time, say around 2005, it was hard to imagine an all-in-one this size turning smoothly operating system complete. You should know that already embarked ARM processor produced by Samsung and running at 233 Mhz. Everything had already been designed at the time to save battery power. Eventually, once miniaturized components and all stuffed into a shell, it should look like a mix between a latest generation iMac, a tablet and a phone. In short, absolutely not what Apple has finally released.
