Flash Is Coming to the iPad - As “Frash”, Jailbreak Only
Apple doesn’t want Flash on its devices, and I believe them when they say that it kills performances on mobile devices. And as much as Adobe likes to complain, they didn’t ship an official mobile version of Flash until a few weeks ago, when Android devices got their first version of Adobe’s platform. Still, some developers are working on a port of the Android version for the iPad.
Solace - Composed on iPad, Shot on iPhone 4
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.
Movies Now HD: Beautiful, Useful - I Wish It Worked In Italy
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.
Pressure Sensitive Drawing on iPad [Video]
Ten One Design, makers of the Pogo Sketch, posted a demo video of their latest creation, a pressure-sensitive sketching software for the iPad that allows you to draw on screen with a stylus and it’s able to capture different levels of pressure from that stylus. They’ve also included the possibility to exclude touch from your hands / fingers and let the iPad choose only touches form the stylus.
Yet Another iPad Arcade Cabinet [Video]
Remember the original iPad arcade cabinet we talked about some weeks ago? Yes, the one made of cardboard. This time there’s a video of another working unit, which looks more “professional” than the other one.
Someone, please make this happen at a consumer level. It’s great.
Fast PDF Is What iBooks for PDFs Should Be
There’s a huge market in the iPad App Store right now, and that’s for PDF readers. Here’s what’s going on: the iPad came out without a dedicated PDF app developed by Apple and so GoodReader (our review) quickly became the most popular paid app. Months later, Apple announced that a PDF-capable version of iBooks was coming out, and we all started wondering whether iBooks for PDFs could kill any other similar app out there.
Reading PDFs in iBooks feels good, but it’s not the perfect experience many predicted. The interface design is beautiful and elegant as Apple’s tradition, but the app doesn’t hold up well to large documents and, in my tests, I found that opening a 14MB file required even 10 seconds (or more) for the app to start up, load the document and let you swipe through it. Unlike Apple said weeks ago, there’s no page curl effect, and TUAW exposed the problem. Ultimately, I’m deeply disappointed by the poor performances of iBooks with large PDFs. Perhaps another update is on its way, but who knows.
I’ve been using another application to read documents on my iPad, Fast PDF. It’s indeed the best 3rd party software to read PDF files currently available in the App Store.
The Most Impressive Brushes Speed Painting Video You’ve Ever Seen
The following video was streamed live worldwide from Brooklyn on Monday, June 21 2010. It features finger painting with the Brushes iPad app by artist David Jon Kassan, and the original session was approximately 3 hours long. The speed painting video is just 8 minutes.
Really, you haven’t seen anything like this. This is the finest example of how Apple’s tablet is indeed meant for content production, not only consumption.
Impressive, indeed.
Synergy Coming to iOS - With BTstack
Synergy is a well known open-source project that allows you to share a single mouse and keyboard across multiple computers, each with its own screen and hardware. You just move the mouse around and switch keyboard from device to device. I think it best represents Ive’s and Jobs’ definition of “magical”, actually.
