Rana Sobhany has been experimenting with custom iPad DJ setups for quite a while now. But with the iPhone 4, she decided to take this a step further, and composed a song on the iPad using AKAI’s Synthstation and SoundTrend’s Looptastic. The music video was shot on an iPhone 4, the same day it came out.
The result is quite impressive in my opinion, and I look forward to the next video.
I’m no cinema expert, but I enjoy watching a good movie every once in a while. You know, when you have those 2 hours you don’t what to do with. I also find myself interested in knowing what’s the next big movie coming out, maybe because I’m a sucker for news. I followed the whole Toy Story 3 thing with so much interest I can’t wait for the movie to come out here.
Should someone make an app for that? Box office movies, new trailers - perhaps with the possibility to buy tickets from inside the app? It turns out someone made Movies Now HD.
I bought a French iPhone 4 on eBay, 16GB model. I paid a lot for it, but I’m not complaining - I needed one. Waiting for Italian providers to comfortably announce their plans wasn’t a viable option. I’ve received the device on Wednesday and had some problems cutting my SIM to fit the new Mini-SIM tray; my first day with the iPhone 4 felt pretty much like using a Retina iPod Touch. Yesterday I managed to buy another SIM, make it mini and finally start using the iPhone 4 - well - as an iPhone.
Finally, it happened. Apple has just issued an official press release about the iPhone 4 “problems”. It turns out, the iPhone 4 comes with a “totally wrong” formula for calculating the signal strength - it displays more bars than it should. The good news is, this will be fixed with a software update soon.
Still, it seems like you’ll have to keep holding the phone without touching “the spot”. If you’re in a low signal area, the reception issues will still happen, but iOS will display the signal drop more accurately.
Check out the full press release below.
FLF Films and director Jerry Dugan, decided to try the newiPhone camera by shooting an entire Minelab commercial with it.
“We were shooting a series of three national spots for them. During the shoot the iPhone 4 came out and we decided we’d shoot and mount the iPhone next to our RED and shoot a whole commercial on the iPhone 4.
We really wanted to see how it would perform on a stabilized platform.”
They even put it on a RC heli for aerial footage. Impressive result, check out the video after the break.

A few days ago an Italian blog posted leaked screenshots of internal slides Microsoft used in April to define their future strategy for Windows 8 and mobile products. The slides clearly show that the guys over at Redmond have been keeping an eye on Apple, especially in regards to the user interface, interactions in the operating system and - yes - the App Store.
Tapulous, developers of many iPhone apps such as the Tap Tap Revenge series and Twinkle, has been acquired by Disney - TechCrunch reports. Founded in 2008 in California, the company received $1.8 M in funding over the years, and collected many hits in the App Store - which made it one of the most succesfull mobile development companies ever.
Congratulations, Tapulous. Now please give us some awesome games, and stop messing with Bieber.
I’ll tell you what, they should make an app for that.
