iPhone 5

After expecting the iPhone 5 earlier this year and instead being presented with the iPhone 4S, a lot of people have dismissed the iPhone 5 for now.  Not us though!  We are still digging through rumors and strangely worded press releases to get the truth for you!  We have come to the conclusion that the release date for the iPhone 5 will likely be in mid 2012.  We would bet on Summer 2012.  As soon as we get more information, we will post it here!   Below are some rumors about the coming iPhone 5.

iPhone 5 Specs

If you want to know what will be in it, just look at the licensed hardware manufacturers!  A glimpse at ARM’s roadmap shows a quad-core processor planned to launch around the same time as the iPhone 5.  It will likely be called the A6.  Quad-core will be the mobile trend of 2012.

iPhone 5 Mobile Network

The iPhone 5 will most definitely be 4g LTE.  It would be the death of the iPhone if it didn’t!

iPhone 5 Form Factor

When the iPhone 5 is released, we will be seeing a completely new form factor.  It will likely be a drastic change from the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S.

We will continue to post updates here as we get them!

Free Apps: Eclipse

Eclipse

A while back, we published an article chock full of free apps.  There was a lot of stuff that we left out though.  One of the glaring holes was in the Programming/Development section.  We completely left out Eclipse.  One reason for this is that Eclipse isn’t really an app.  It is an entire development environment.  The project is completely open source and it is one of the most powerful resources available to developers…and it’s free!  So, what is Eclipse exactly?

About Eclipse

From their website: Eclipse is an open source community, whose projects are focused on building an open development platform comprised of extensible frameworks, tools and runtimes for building, deploying and managing software across the lifecycle. The Eclipse Foundation is a not-for-profit, member supported corporation that hosts the Eclipse projects and helps cultivate both an open source community and an ecosystem of complementary products and services.

The Death of Mobile Flash

Adobe Flash Player in the Android Marketplace

Today, Adobe announced that it is cutting Mobile Flash along with 750 jobs.

“Over the past two years, we’ve delivered Flash Player for mobile browsers and brought the full expressiveness of the web to many mobile devices, however, HTML5 is now universally supported on major mobile devices, in some cases exclusively. This makes HTML5 the best solution for creating and deploying content in the browser across mobile platforms.  We are excited about this, and will continue our work with key players in the HTML community, including Google, Apple, Microsoft and RIM, to drive HTML5 innovation they can use to advance their mobile browsers.”

- Danny Winokur, Adobe’s vice president of interactive development

I hate to say this, but Apple sure got this one right!  I never would have thought that HTML5 would kill Mobile Flash so quickly.  I’m happy with the forward progress of HTML5, but I will be sad to see Mobile Flash Player go.

I was hanging out with a friend of mine last night and he was showing off his iPhone 4S.  In particular, he was showing off Siri, the robotic personal assistant.  He told me that you can say pretty much anything to Siri and the response is often surprising and fun.  He decided to test Siri’s limits and said to Siri, “I need a blow job.”  Here is the result:

Apple Rumored to Have Ordered 7.85″ Displays…iPad Mini?

iPad Mini?

There are a few rumors floating around that Apple might be planning to release an iPad Mini in 2012.  The rumors range from a smaller form-factor tablet to a tablet the same size as the iPad with a much lower price point.  To top off the rumors, suppliers have leaked information that Apple has ordered some 7.85-inch touch displays.  Well, that is interesting!  With Amazon’s announcement of the Amazon Kindle Fire, Apple might be scrambling to maintain its place at the top of tablet mountain.  One of my chief complaints about the iPad is its size.  It’s not very useful for carrying around with you.

The rumor that Apple will release an iPad with the same form-factor and cheaper hardware is also interesting.  To make something as popular as the iPad more affordable would certainly be a huge selling point.  My dream is still a completely open and unlocked Android Tablet in the 7-inch to 8-inch display size at a decent price.  The Huawei tablets come the closest to what I want, but something with Honeycomb would be great.  We will see what happens and will continue to keep our readers informed.

Oh man…this is terrible and awesome at the same time.  It appears that someone made an edit to Steve Jobs’ Wikipedia entry comparing him to his own products.  Very clever…I doubt it stayed up for very long!

Apple Co-Founder, Steve Jobs, Dies at 56

It still works...

We here at TechRemedy are sad to report that Steve Jobs, Co-Founder of Apple Computers has died at age 56 from a rare form of pancreatic cancer.  Over the years, Steve Jobs has impressed, confused, infuriated, and intrigued me a million times over.  No matter where you stand in the Apple Vs. Windows or iOS Vs. Android debates, it is truly a sad moment.  Steve Jobs was paramount in completely changing the world.  His impression will be left until the end of humanity.

What I loved the most about Steve Jobs was his ability to place all the focus on what computers could do, rather than focus on HOW computers do what they do.  As a tech and gear head, I was always more interested in the latter, but his vision helped put computers and smartphones in the hands of people who otherwise never would purchase one.

So here’s to you Steve Jobs…a creative visionary with a positive genius for simultaneously inspiring and infuriating the masses of humanity.  Your mark will last forever and you will be missed.

RIP Steve Jobs

iPhone 4S: The Blade of Betrayal Lodged In Humanity’s Spleen

Yesterday was Apple’s big iPhone 5 release event.  The only problem was that it completely lacked an iPhone 5!  Behold, the iPhone 4S!

iPhone 4....S

Hmmm…it looks an awful lot like the iPhone 4…in fact, it looks EXACTLY like the iPhone 4!  But Apple…how are pretentious people supposed to display that they are better than all the iPhone 4 people now?  Well, suck it up suckers…you’ll have to wait for the iPhone 5 for that!  So, why did Apple do this to us?  Why did they cover our mouths in our sleep while slowly pushing a sword into our backs?  The answer is simple…marketing.

Let’s say that X number of people were planning on buying an iPhone 5. Now that the iPhone 4S is coming out first, there will certainly be Y number of people who get the 4S. And then when the iPhone 5 comes out, Z number of people will get one. The formula is simple. Y + Z > X.

DAMN YOU APPLE!  Just you wait…the lines will still be wrapped around the mall for the 4S…and then the 5….and then the iPhone 5S…and onward for the rest of our lives.  So get used to it.  Of course you could always just switch to an Android phone!

Don’t forget to circle me on Google+!

5 Features The iPhone 5 MUST Have

iPhone 5 Launch

Let’s get right down to it. If Apple wants to defeat the rest of the mobile phone world, the new iPhone 5 will need to step up the game! Here are 5 features that the iPhone 5 absolutely must have if Apple wants to pound the competition.

5. Larger Display
iPhone users are starting to notice those large screen Android phones out there and they want their beloved Apple to follow suit. Come on Apple, bring us the display!

4. More Efficient Battery
A phone should last all day. That is all I need to say about that!

3. HD Video Camera
The iPhone 5 would appeal to a much larger group if the video recording capabilities of the phone were increased greatly. HD…at least 720p, preferably 1080p!

2. Dual Core Processor
Android phones have blasted past iPhones as far as hardware is concerned and it’s time for Apple to catch back up. A screaming fast dual core processor would help a lot!

1. 4G
Yes. The iPhone 5 needs to have 4g capability. Any phone trying to compete for the top spot in the world of smartphones, MUST have 4g!

Can you think of any more features that the iPhone 5 should have? Let me know in the comments!
