Άν ακόμα δεν έχετε αναβαθμίσει το iphone σας στην τελευταία έκδοση firmware 2.2.1 τότε μάλλον είναι η ώρα να το κάνετε. Το app store φιλοξενεί πλέον κάποιες εφαρμογές οι οποίες απαιτούν την ύπαρξη up-to-date συσκεύων. Δεν έχει σημασία αν είναι δωρεάν ή οχι!

Παράδειγμα αποτελεί το HOT or NOT και το iMob. Και οι δυο εφαρμογές είναι δωρεάν αλλά απαιτούν συσκευή με firmware 2.2.1 για να εγκατασταθούν. Ίσως αυτό είναι ένα μέτρο της Apple για να καταπολεμήσει τη ευρεία διάδοση του jailbreak!

Όσοι λοιπόν δεν έχετε αναβαθμίσει ακόμα προτείνουμε να το κάνετε καθώς το jailbreak της 2.2.1 είναι πλέον εφικτό με το quickpwn της dev-team!

Αναβαθμίστε λοιπόν και καλή διασκέδαση!

The Webkit blog reports that the latest WebKit builds now support explicit animations in CSS.

CSS Animations is one of the enhancements to CSS proposed by the WebKit project that we’ve been calling CSS Effects (eg. gradients, masks, transitions). The goal is to provide properties that allow Web developers to create graphically rich content. In many cases animations are presentational, and therefore belong in the styling system. This allows developers to write declarative rules for animations, replacing lots of hard-to-maintain animation code in JavaScript.

The features are presently unique to WebKit but can be viewed by using one of the beta nightly builds or simply through your iPhone/iPod Touch. Apple has already implemented these animations, as well as 3D support, within the iPhone's mobile Safari.

Those browsing using an iPhone or a nightly Webkit build can see the sample pages in action: falling leaves (pictured), bouncing box, and pulse ("the new blink").

These features should eventually make their way into Mac OS X's Safari builds and the features have also been proposed for inclusion into the actual CSS standard. As we've previously detailed, Apple has been making efforts to push web-standard technologies possibly as a way to reduce dependance on Adobe's Flash player. The incorporation of animation into CSS could certainly threaten one of the major uses of Flash on the internet. Apple has also been investing in other core web technologies as the basis for their Mobile Me web applications.

Με έναν ενδιαφέρον συνδιασμό φήμης/είδησης,το Gizmodo κυκλοφόρησε ένα concept για την επόμενη version του iPhone (δες την εικόνα).

Πραγματικά δείχνει πολύ όμορφο, με πιο τετραγωνισμένη σχεδίαση από το ήδη υπάρχων μοντέλο(τετράγωνο είναι ο καινούργιος κύκλος σύμφωνα με πολλούς σχεδιαστές), βελτιωμένη κάμερα και μεγαλύτερη μνήμη.

• Titanium and Glass with an OLED screen
• Front camera for iChat
• Removable battery
• 3.2 Megapixel camera
• 32 GB

Έχετε κατα νου οτι αυτό είναι ένα ανεπίσημο concept και το πιό πιθανό είναι να μην κυκλοφορήσει ποτέ!. Τι πιστεύετε, εσείς οι αναγνώστες μας, για το όραμα του νέου iPhone?

iPhone Firmware .ipsw Files‘ page updated:

NEW v2.2.1 iPhone1,1_2.2.1_5H11_Restore.ipsw (1st gen iPhone)

NEW v2.2.1 iPhone1,2_2.2.1_5H11_Restore.ipsw (iPhone 3G)

Μεταφέρετε εύκολα και γρήγορα αρχεία από τον υπολογιστή σας Mac στο iPhone σας με την εφαρμογή File Magic!!!

File Magic from SplashData is one of several file transfer apps available now in the App Store. By purchasing this iPhone app for $4,99 and downloading the free desktop app from its website, you can drag and drop your files from your desktop to your iPhone magically.

How it works?

1. Launch File Magic on the desktop and the handheld. The handheld application will ask you to allow the connection.
2. Drag and drop any file into the File Magic desktop and it will be transferred over Wi-Fi to the device.
3. Tap the folder, then the file you wish to view on the handheld.

According to the iPhone Blog, transferring the files through this app couldn’t be easier - just use the drag-and-drop interface on the File Magic Desktop app and the files will “magically” appear on your iPhone File Magic app via your WiFi connection.

Worth trying.

Σύμφωνα με μία πρόσφατη συνέντευξη της Adobe, ο flash player είναι στα σκαριά με συνεργασία Apple - Adobe! Και αν επιτρέψει η Apple θα κυκλοφορήσει σύντομα!

According to a recent interview given by Adobe, Flash for the iPhone is in the works, and will be released (if Apple approves it).

They claim they’ll have to create a custom version for the iPhone; the regular version is too resource-intensive for Apple’s taste.

It’s been in development since June 2008, according to Adobe.

Frankly, it’s about time. With the competition pursuing Flash, Apple had to cave a bit and start developing to add it to the iPhone’s feature list. Now it’s only a question of when this “custom job” will be complete. No timetable was given for the custom version’s release.

This would open the door for lots of new development and application flexibility, and various sites to be more compatible with the iPhone, which would be a welcome note for developers.

In the ocean of the social networking services, especially among dekstop-based users, Facebook is quite popular. And it also goes with mobile users. It’s reported that Facebook for iPhone is the service’s most popular application.

Facebook have revealed that, out of its 4 million daily mobile users, their Facebook for iPhone mobile client sees approximately 1.64 million daily active users, compared to the Facebook for Blackberry app which has has approximately 1.56 million daily users.

Launched and hit the App Store at July last year, Facebook for iPhone client could access to more technology than Facebook iPhone websites. With the native application, for example, you can take photos and upload them instantly to your Mobile Uploads album on Facebook.

Facebook for iPhone works with the original iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPhone 3G. You can download the application for free from Apple’s App Store on iPhone and iPod touch or at www.itunes.com/appstore/
