iOS 4.2 Beta 3 Worms Its Way Out, Ready For Download
iOS 4.1 Released In iTunes, It’s Time To Get Updating
Have an iPhone 4, iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, iPod touch 2nd generation, iPod touch 3rd generation, or iPod touch 4th generation with iTunes? Then you technically have iOS 4.1. Major notes of this release are proximity sensor fixes, Game Center, bug squashing, and lots of fun. Time to get updating.
LaptopMemo Giveaway: Another $10 iTunes Gift Card
So, it’s another giveaway you say? It’s for another $10 iTunes gift card, and since 1.7 million people just bought iPhone 4s in the last 4 days, I think you’d really want it. The same rules apply people:
- It’ll run till Saturday, July 3rd
- You have to leave a comment with a valid email address, telling us why you think you should get the gift card
- The winner will be picked at random
- One entry per person, multiple entries will disqualify you
- Your email address will only be used to contact you with the card’s details
- You’ll have to be in the U.S of A (that’s what the card says anyways)
Good luck!
iOS 4 now available on the iPhone 3G, 3GS, and then some
So! Have you gotten yourself iOS 4 yet? If you haven’t, here’s what you need to know to get it. First, look at your device. If it’s the iPhone 3G, 3GS, or by some chance the unreleased iPhone 4 (contact me if you have it), then you’d be good to go. For precautions back up your files when plugging in your iPhone to iTunes (9.2 is the requirement), and new iPod Touch owners should also be in luck. The build’s reference number is 8A293, just to be sure that it’s the real thing and brings the iBooks app, Bluetooth wireless keyboard support, multitasking, unified email inbox, and folders, much like Android 2.1 and 2.2. Apparently, Apple and Steve Jobs claims that the new iOS has 1,500 new features, so I’ll let you live through the glory to find out all of them, yourself.

iPad Apps Are Live, Get ‘Em Before Everyone Else, But Don’t Use Them Till Saturday
iPad Apps are now live at the iTune App Store. Wow, it’s magical and revolutionary! Just kidding, just kidding. Really, Apple could’ve just held off until people actually have the iPad, but there’s no harm done when people can browse through hundreds of new iPad apps, of which is 11 pages worth, right? Be prepared with your credit card, because buying the iPad isn’t the only thing, you’ll have to cough up some extra dough since iPad apps are closer to real desktop ones, which is a win/win and a lose/lose of sorts. Well-recognized apps like Brushes, Twitteriffic, and the Wall Street Journal are all sitting there waiting to be bought. Go check it out at the source link, you’ll like it.
