iPad review roundup
iPad reviews are popping up everywhere and most of them are very positive of the device. Most of the reviews has pricing as the biggest issue, and even though you can get the cheapest model for $499, most of you guys probably want the 3G version with more storage and then you’ll end up close to the $1000 mark. Here’s a roundup of some of the best reviews, including a video review from IGN:
iPhone OS 4 announced today
Today Apple finally unveiled the upcoming iPhone OS 4 which features over 100 new features including one of the most eagerly awaited – multitasking. You won’t get multitasking on older phones though, only 3GS and newer models will get that CPU intensive feature. Another needed feature is making folders on the home screen where you can sort your applications into specific categories. More details inside.
Mac Clocks and more from Geekware
Nicola Harper from Edmonton, Canada is transforming obsolete electronic waste into fun and geeky gifts. Here’s her latest lovely creations, sold at her site Geekware. If you want one of them you’d better be quick since most of the items are available only in very limited editions.
Here’s a lovely example; an old Little Professor (toy calculator from the early 1980′s) has been transformed into a clock
And here’s an old iMac keyboard that also serves as a clock.
Finally, a magnetic message centre made out of an old G3 keyboard.

Apple launches iPad
That Apple should announce some kind of touch device today wasn’t a surprise for anybody. The news has been all over the last couple of days and today Steve Jobs showed the final product. It’s a beautiful product that fits right between the iPhone and the MacBook in their product portfolio. There’s a bunch of models available, where the difference between them is storage and whether they have a 3G module or not. I really like the product, but there are a couple of things that disappoint me: 1.) There’s no USB port. 2.) The aspect ratio of the screen is 4:3 (I would prefer 16:9). 3.) I have to wait 90 days to get hold of a 3G version

Bumptop
Bumptop is a really clever application that will extend your desktop into a 3D workspace. You can easily organize all your documents into piles and you can even pin important files onto one of the walls. I have been using the free version for a couple of days, and today I bought the full version ($29). I have embedded a video inside so you can see the application in action.
Unboxing the iPhone 3GS
Today is the launch day for Apple’s new iPhone 3GS in Sweden. I was in line this morning to get hold of the new, updated version of the phone. Here’s some photos of the holy unboxing procedure.
Keeping it amazingly complicated
Above you can see the current list of available models from Nokias site. I’m quite amazed how they have managed to put together such a complicated range of products. It’s quite a challenge to pick the ‘perfect phone’. 44 models listed in their ‘short list’. And it’s even worse over at Sony Ericsson’s site, they present over 70 different models when you browse around trying to get an overview:
If you compare it to Apple’s range of models, it’s quite a dramatic difference. Two models to choose from, and most people probably think both of them are the same thing, simply an iPhone. No wonder why they are growing their market share like crazy.
If Nokia and Sony Ericsson don’t do something dramatic about their product portfolio during the next couple of years, they are in real trouble. Just check out the development year-to-year regarding shipped mobile units:
