Samsung redesigns Galaxy Tab

As expected, Samsung appears to be designing around the German sales ban on the Galaxy Tab 10.1 by altering the device’s appearance, a parallel to the revised smartphone software it shipped in the Netherlands to avoid a sales ban due to Apple’s patents. MobiFlip spotted the redesigned Galaxy Tab 10.N (pictured above), and the device’s only difference — aside from a Bluetooth bump to 3.0 — is a frame that wraps around the left and right sides, slightly intruding onto the glass. Edge-to-edge glass is an important part of Apple’s European iPad design registration, so Samsung is likely targeting only that aspect of the appearance and leaving the remaining hardware untouched. We’ll see if the German court thinks these changes are enough and if Apple thinks it’s worth challenging this new version, but for now it looks like Samsung is pressing ahead — you’ll find the 10.1N available on Cyberport’s online store.

.XXX web domain registration

It’s almost here. As companies prepare to buy their domain names, the rest of us wait in anticipation to see the classic names that will start to appear.

Wrote on the BBC News’ website
“Companies and celebrities are being given the chance to protect their names from porn hijacking ahead of the launch of the .xxx web domain.

From today, brands can request to have their name blocked from use with the new suffix, which goes live next year.

Existing adult entertainment sites can also submit their application to reserve a spot on .xxx

Apple looses another unreleased iPhone

Apple has AGAIN lost another prototype. Maybe its time for the Apple staff to stop drinking while they are working.

cnet news has reported that Apple has lost another prototype version of their latest phone, the iphone 5.

“San Francisco police confirmed yesterday that they “assisted” Apple internal security in a recent search of a home that was aimed at finding an unreleased iPhone owned by the company and lost in a San Francisco bar. On Wednesday, CNET was the first to report the search for the errant phone.
Apple has declined to identify the lost device. But when distributing its statement last night through a Word file, a police representative labeled the file “iphone5.doc,” according to the Reuters news service.”

Apple returns to older version of Final Cut Pro

This dumbing down of software isn’t new to Apple. If they are still going to charge business prices for their computers then they should expect that the people using them wont be people who have never used a computer before. They should keep this simpleness for the iphone and ipad and leave the macs for the designers and editors
