The Powerful Code Editor for iPad and iPhone — Now Free to Try
Ever since Hulu announced its plans for Hulu +, a premium subscription service that gives you access to full HD content and mobile apps, we all applied for an invite. I know you did, and I did too. I still haven’t got mine.
But, my good friend Matthew Rex was able to get in and he posted some screenshots and impressions about the overall service and video quality. He’s got some interesting findings to share, too.
Following the official apple.com/antenna webpage, Apple has also introduced a section dedicated to its Antenna design and test labs.
Canal+ is a French TV channel which has recently released its official iPhone app in the App Store. Unlike many other TV channels, they decided to promote the app in a pretty unusual way, by airing an awesome commercial.

Looking to access your Firefox profile in the cloud? Firefox Home, approved by Apple yesterday, can now be found on the App Store. While I don’t touch Firefox too often, I still appreciate some of its features and am looking forward to the latest update. For those still using the mighty fox, Firefox Home for the iPhone can collect your open tabs, bookmarks, and other related data so that you have a portable carry-on for that workflow.
You can download Firefox Home at this link.

The official Flickr iPhone application was updated last night to include support for iOS 4 multitasking (fast app switching) and uploads in the background. It’s available for free here.
The 1.2 update also includes support for HD video uploads, Twitter integration with flic.kr short URLs and better full-screen browsing features. Sadly, there’s still no support for Retina Display.
What are you waiting for, Flickr?
Here’s an interesting story: when Apple officially announced the iPhone 4, they said they would release it in 8 countries first. Then, starting from July, it would be available in 18 more countries. These countries are Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland.
So the rumors were true this morning: Apple has just pushed iOS 4.0.1 only for iPhone. It includes various bug fixes and improvements, including the signal formula one.
What we didn’t know, though, is that 3.2.1 for iPad was about to be released: the newest update of iOS for iPad brings many fixes, including the Wifi connectivity, video playback and PDF ones.
Some people just don’t know how to hold an iPhone. Go tell Steve about it. Truth is, everyone wants to make his own customized stand or case. But this one, this one…is made out of a credit card and a plastic bump.
What?
Whether iOS 4.1 fixes the iPhone 4 antenna issues or not (it did the trick for me), it’s very interesting to read the opinions of well-known industry personalities about it.
But Steve Wozniak is more than a personality - heck, he’s the guy who co-founded Apple with Jobs. He must know something about Apple stuff, right? It turns out he experienced reception problems, too, and he learned about them the hard way. He touched the spot and everything froze.
