AppleInsider revealed today a patent application, filed in May of last year, for a revolutionary new way of measuring pulse, body temperature and blood oxygen, all through the earbuds of your iPod or iPhone.

In an apparent effort to build on the success of the Nike+iPod sensor technology, the patent describes a method of obtaining information about your workout by emitting light from the earbud and using photodetectors to measure blood oxygen levels, body temperature, heat flux and heart rate.

Cisco Rolls Out iPhone Security App
Nov 20, 2009 - 6:55 AM - by Messany
Click the image to open in full size.

Cisco has introduced a new (and free) iPhone app chronicling the latest security threats and offering alerts from Cisco's enormous internet traffic and, most importantly, security experts (better than 500 in all) keeping on eye on the cyber dangers that loom large, occasionally unbeknown to us.

From CNET:
Quote:
The app also allows users to enter an IP address to determine a website or server's internet "reputation" -- an estimate of risk based on a variety of factors including traffic volume and location.
Available for download beginning today, "SIO To Go" enables you to monitor a host of security news feeds, the most important of which... [Read More]

Attention Hits Hack in 10.6.2 Enabling Atom Support
Nov 20, 2009 - 6:04 AM - by Messany

Even though some discovered this information weeks ago, only now is it widely coming to light as high-traffic news and rumor sources like 9to5Mac are finally promoting word that Atom support can be enabled by a hack in 10.6.2. And while this news doesn't come as a major shock to anyone, it is somewhat surprising how quickly a fix has come along to effectively "work around" the decision by Apple to drop support for Atom processors in OS X 10.6.2 - a move that effectively killed Hackintosh netbooks.

Quote:
A Russian hacker was able to slap an old Atom-supporting OSX Kernel on the newer Mac OS 10.6.2 build and get it running on his little Atom netbook.

Bluelounge Refresh Charging Station - Giveaway Inside!
Nov 20, 2009 - 12:03 AM - by ModMyi Reviews
Bluelounge is an award winning design studio, which creates great products to tackle the daily needs of people with design and utility being the 'wow' factor! In 2008 they received a total of 11 design awards!

Recently, I received a blueLounge 'Refresh' for this review and like its title, it is a great charging station with a jaw-dropping simplistic and refreshing design. It basically is an all metal docking station designed to charge up to six different appliances all at one time.

It has six built-in connectors, which makes it compatible with more than a 1000 products available worldwide! Out of these, two are iPod and iPhone connectors to charge your favorite apple device. Others include a Mini USB and Micro USB connector which are the main reason for wide compatibility. It even has two USB sockets where you can plugin the USB cables for your device and then connected the device to charge. All these... [Read More]
 
Trillian for iPhone Finally Released
Nov 19, 2009 - 10:25 AM - by pauldanielash
Click the image to open in full size.

After a long wait in Apple-approval limbo, Trillian for iPhone is now available for purchase on the App Store. The makers of the slick multiservice IM client waited three months, with no word up or down from Apple, before the okay came through yesterday.

While chat windows somewhat evoke the look and feel of Messages, the functionality far outstrips what comes in Apple's standard SMS client. The iPhone version, like the popular desktop program, allows for multiple IM connections to be managed and used in a single app. Unlike the desktop version, though, all connections are handled through Trillian's Astra network. Trillian for iPhone is always connected to the Astra server, which allows instant sync between different clients running on different platforms. If you change your avatar or display name on your iPhone, for example, the change is immediately propagated to your Windows client as well as... [Read More]

TomTom Releases Update for iPod touch and 1st-Gen iPhone
Nov 19, 2009 - 9:17 AM - by pauldanielash
Click the image to open in full size.

TomTom has, at long last, released a version of its navigation app compatible with original iPhones and the iPod touch. With version 1.2 of the app, released yesterday on the App Store, users of these devices can join iPhone 3G and 3GS users with enjoying turn-by-turn navigation... when used with its $119.95 car kit. The company had originally stated that their product would support the devices, but at the time of the October release only iPhones with GPS receivers were compatible.

The new version also features a new text-to-speech function, so the driver can pay attention to the roads while the app announces street names as turns are reached. It also allows the driver to control iPod music from within the app, rather than having to switch in and out of iPod mode. There's improved lane guidance in both landscape and portrait mode,...

ModMyWheelchair with New iPhone Solution
Nov 19, 2009 - 7:28 AM - by Messany
Click the image to open in full size.

upon the iPhone's initial launch and release, some said the device would ultimately be used for a variety of functions incapable of being considered at that time. Today, such arguments are once again gaining credibility as the iPhone continues to be put to work at simplifying the ways in which we navigate life. And according to a story on 9to5Mac today, "navigating" is exactly the function provided through new wheelchair controls optimized for the iPhone.

Phishers Prep Apple Attack?
Nov 19, 2009 - 6:47 AM - by Messany
Click the image to open in full size.


An article on 9to5mac yesterday has a lot of people talking today, as the prospect of a new Mac attack from phishers allegedly looms on the horizon. Although Macs have a mostly pristine imagine for being resistant to virus attacks, phishers are slowly and steadily taking aim at Apple products.

Quote:
We received word this morning of what could be a brand new phishing attack that’s in circulation at present - an email which purports to relate to a recent Apple retail transaction and asks for details of any recent orders. The email (image above) also carries a stuffed file. This contains an ‘exe’ file which will only launch on a Windows machine, as with all such phishing trips, be

RadTech ARC Hard Shell Case for 3G / 3GS
Nov 19, 2009 - 1:00 AM - by ModMyi Reviews
Click the image to open in full size.

Rad-tech sells some of the coolest products out there today. I’ve been a fan for a while, so when I finally was able to convince the wife to let me upgrade to a 3G (Yes, still a model behind, story of my life) I ordered 2 cases before even receiving the phone. This is the story of the first case I received, which is the ARC Hard Shell case for the iPhone 3G and 3GS.

First off, the case feels amazing, it’s smooth, but not slippery smooth. The case itself wraps around the sides, but doesn’t quite cover the bezel completely, and the fit is great, nice and snug with no wiggle or loose feeling. The site claims it slides in and out of pockets easily, and I can verify that this is exactly why I love this case. The grip works well, but it still drops in and out of pockets with no problems at all.

Following news that Apple has been touting its rumoured tablet around media outlets, in order to encourage them to adopt the platform, it has now emerged that Apple has been showing the new device to analysts.

ITIC analyst Laura DiDio has claimed that the Apple tablet will come in several different models featuring a 10-12in screen, it will offering a variety of internet connections from Wi-Fi to 3G, and will offer a webcam for video conferencing.

She told CNN:
Quote:
"The tablet will change the game, because Apple will throw down the gauntlet at the competitors, and force them to follow along."
Senior CNET editor Dan Ackerman concurred with DiDio's assessment.
