Update: We just got our hands on the iPad 5 cases. A couple images above and a full gallery is after the break. This certainly isn’t the first time that an iOS accessory maker made a bet on making cases for an unreleased Apple product. In fact, it has become somewhat the norm for CEO of case maker Gumdrop, Tim Hickman, who for many recent Apple products decided to make an investment and start accepting orders for cases of yet to be released products....

Using Google Translate, we discover that there are 2 tablets with the same ability of combining the past and the new. With these 2 tablets, Casio fills a gap in the market. We’ve been struggling for a while to answer the question – “do I need a stylus for my tablet?” precisely because we’re looking for increased productivity. Sure, such products as the Galaxy Note are great and quite versatile, but it seems that nothing can beat the pleasure of good ol’ paper writing....

A new press release from CD Projekt Red highlighted the studio’s future plans for its properties, and it’s an encouraging outlook for fans of The Witcher, which is identified as one of two main franchises for the company that will continue to be explored. While a few spin-offs have emerged over the past few years - most notably Gwent, a stand-alone card game, and Thronebreaker, a game that uses Gwent mechanics to tell a larger narrative - it’s been a long time since fans were treated to a Witcher game proper....

As we all know, Disney runs a tight ship. With a plethora of live-action and animated movies coming out on the regular, it can be difficult to follow their schedule. Marvel, Pixar, and Star Wars are all under Disney’s gargantuan umbrella. For example, Frozen II, the sequel to the highly-anticipated movie, Frozen, is out today in theatres! And what better way to celebrate an instant classic than to parse through the Disney library and find a great deal or two....

Better Call Saul has returned to rave reviews with the pilot episode setting up everything else in store over the coming season. However, like any good opening of a show, it’s given us plenty of questions that we’d really love the answer to. In just one short hour we were given more character development, shown exactly what everyone is up to next, with the series pretty much picking up exactly where we left off....

The Suicide Squad may have been a box office juggernaut and given the world Margot Robbie’s headlining Harley Quinn. But with Birds of Prey now heading towards release, Warner Bros. is cutting all ties possible to shift the focus to Harley Quinn’s future, instead. Sorry, Joker. This may all be confirmation at this point, since the writing has been on the wall for months, if not years. After Suicide Squad took a beating with critics, the moves to lift Robbie’s Harley out of the franchise and into one of her own started almost immediately....

BMW has denied a report in the German car magazine that it is developing or building a car for Apple, but not responded to a claim suggesting that Apple may be developing an ‘operating system’ for its i3 electric car. Auto Motor Sport claimed that Apple was in discussion with BMW about the possibility of developing an electric car based on the BMW i3, following numerous reports that the Cupertino company plans to develop an Apple Car....

For years now, we’ve been promised exciting new battery technologies that claim to dramatically boost battery life, and none of them ever seem to materialize. But a new Apple patent application describes a simple way to achieve a worthwhile increase in battery life with nothing more high-tech than a metal housing. The invention is a little ironic, as it solves a problem Apple originally created back in 2015 with the batteries in the 12-inch MacBook, before subsequently adopting the same tech in the rest of the MacBook lineup …...

Earlier today, a video hit YouTube seemingly showcasing the iPhone X in use on Apple’s campus. Now, a shorter video is making the rounds and it offers a close up look at the app switching process on the iPhone X… In the video, you can see just how smooth the process is. While on previous iPhones, you would use the Home button to switch between apps, Apple had to reinvent the process for the Home button-less iPhone....

If you’re buying or selling a property, it’s important to have a building inspection done by a professional. A building inspector will check the property for any major structural damage, pests, or other problems that could affect the home’s value. Below we’ll talk about Building Inspection Checklist Australia and everything related to it, so let’s get straight to the point! What Do Pre-purchase Inspections Cover? A pre-purchase inspection is an evaluation of a building by a professional inspector, typically performed before the sale of the property....

Captain Marvel makes an MCU Phase 1 tie-in comic part of the official Marvel canon. Set in 1995, Captain Marvel is essentially a prequel to the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe; it’s even a back-door origin story for both Samuel L. Jackson’s Nick Fury and Clark Gregg’s Agent Coulson. Although there had initially been concerns that Captain Marvel could cause a lot of major continuity errors, it’s becoming clear that Marvel has put a lot of effort into making everything tie together....

A good idea at the right time, Mobclix proved to be very successful. By 2010, the trio had sold their company to Velti, working their for a time until they wanted to do something new. Influencer marketing didn’t yet have a name when the three of them identified the opportunities that lay ahead on social media—and Instagram in particular. Captiv8 was born, but initially only has a social listening and analytics tool....

You all remember CARROT, right? The sadistic, sarcastic artificial intelligence that powers a collection of productivity and fitness applications has returned for a fifth app. The latest piece of software to join the CARROT family is CARROT Weather. As you may have gathered from the title, this new app helps you track current and upcoming weather conditions with the snark that only CARROT can really nail. The Weather app is much simpler in presentation than its predecessors, but it’s just as robust as you’ve come to expect from this line of apps....

Seemingly out of nowhere, a cinematic version of the original Broadway musical Cats is clawing its way into theaters this Christmas. Based on Andrew Lloyd Webber’s massively successful play and the writings of acclaimed author T.S. Eliot, it boasts a huge cast of stars, a score crammed full of classic songs, and lively dance numbers featuring some of the best dancers in showbiz. It also features very bizarre looking cat-people, a nonsensical plot, and heavy-handed CGI....

There are a number of celebrities we need to see on Dancing with the Stars. Every year since it debuted in 2005, industry notables from sports, entertainment, fashion, music, politics and more have battled to win the coveted Mirror Ball trophy. Dancing With the Stars has always been an excellent stop for celebrities who are looking to reignite their careers, or just do something a bit different from their norm. While producers have delivered some exciting performers over the years, there are so many other industry notables that fans would love to get to know better....

Spaces could be a Trojan horse that might somehow either become an alternative to what Facebook has become more of lately, a news feed aggregator. Using Google Spaces for iOS Google Spaces requires iOS 9.0 or later and works on iPhone, iPad and, iPod Touch. Google Spaces is a free download for iOS from the Apple iTunes Store. Spaces is built on several platforms: Google Search, YouTube, and your Photos....

China Mobile, the world’s largest Telecom with close to 700M subscribers, reported mixed earnings today on slow growth of its smartphone business relative to its competitors which both carry the iPhone. Chairman Xi Guohua noted this and said that talks with Apple on carrying the iPhone were progressing. “Both sides sounded keen (during recent talks),” Xi told a news conference after announcing the company’s first-half results. “Good progress was made in preparing for the commercialization of TD-LTE,” Xi said, referring to 4G “long-term evolution” network technology that may support newer iPhone models....

The 2021 edition of IFI’s Trends and Insights study found that US-based companies accounted for 150,801 of the 327,329 patents issued during the year. In a distant second place was Japan with 47,105, followed by South Korea (21,264), China (20,679), and Germany (14,663), to round out the top five. While the rest of the top five countries saw their patent approvals decline between 2020 and 2021, China’s actually surged, going from 18,792 to the aforementioned 20,679....

One Chinese man seemingly couldn’t wait for an official Apple wearable, and tried to smuggle an amazing 94 iPhones from Hong Kong – where they are cheaper – into mainland China by wearing them inside his clothes. Huffington Post reports that the man was pulled aside by customs officials as a result of his “weird walking posture, joint stiffness, muscle tension.” We don’t know the mix of models involved, but the total value of the iPhones would likely exceed $50,000, making his saran-wrapped iPhone suit one of the most expensive suits in the world....
