When I wrote this, I was thinking about: Apple, OSX Applications, PDF, Preview.
When I described Five Hidden OSX Gems a couple of years ago, I highlighted the flexibility of Preview. Even back in the days of Tiger, it was a hugely useful tool, and I bemoaned having to use operating systems that didn’t have it.
Since then, it’s grown significantly in usefulness. I don’t know when the two [...]

The BBC are having some serious green screen keying issues on NewsNight tonight.
Whilst Apple have confirmed that the iPad will be coming to the UK at the same time as the US they are yet to announce any pricing. So where the US is getting charged a very reasonable $499 (starting price), we don’t yet know what us in blighty are going to get charged.
I’m not one [...]
Twitter was incredibly slow for an hour or so today. Apple;s stock price fluctuates massively. The number of entries in my RSS Reader was 80% above usual. It had to be Apple’s Tablet reveal.
It appears that many tech commenting sites and blogs have pitched their tents on one side of the fence already. ”It’s the [...]
With speculation on Apple’s 27th January event rampant, can we read anything into the invitations that Apple have sent out? To find out I’ve gathered together all the past invites I could find, mapped them to the announcements they corresponded to and tried to look for trends.

It seems almost inevitable. The room’s been booked, the invitations have been sent out and the flights are scheduled. Apple must be revealing a Tablet on the 27th. There remains, however, many questions surrounding exactly what form the device will take.
I have a particular interest in the tablet’s user interface. Interfaces are something that Apple [...]
Apple’s newest revision of OSX, Snow Leopard, has been covered to death in recent days. Thus rendering any sort of detailed review redundant. So, as a launch day upgrader across a couple of Macs (one iMac, one MacBook), I thought I’d just point out some of the subtle changes I’ve not seen covered elsewhere. Repetition [...]
Evolution not revolution seems to be the quote of choice amongst reviewers of the iPhone 3GS, but I think it sells the device somewhat short. While it’s easy to dismiss minor bumps to speed, in practice it feels like a different phone. I’ve now been using the device for a little over two weeks, going [...]

When I wrote this, I was thinking about: iPhone, iPhone Apps, Satellite Navigation.
Apple have made quite a big deal regarding the sheer number of iPhone applications available. A figure of 50,000 was touted at WWDC. That’s not insignificant, and Apple can be quite proud that they’ve created an atmosphere in which App developers want to publish (despite little hiccups along the way). However, there’s been one glaring [...]
Looking back at the lifecycle of iPhone software releases, it’s easy to identify Apple’s set objectives at the time. The initial release, which went hand in hand with the first iPhone hardware, was out there to quickly woo the market and gain a significant footing in an already crowded marketplace. It was aimed at early [...]
Earlier today Apple gave the world a sneak peak of it’s upcoming iPhone version 3.0 software. This is clearly a substantial release, with Apple touting over 1000 new APIs and 100 end user features for this release.
There’s already a significant amount of coverage out there regarding the preview, so let’s focus on some of [...]
