Wireless dSLR tethering to the iPad → Jesse Rosten has an interesting workflow set up that allows wireless transfers of images from a shooting dSLR camera (5D MkII) to his iPad. He’s using an app called ShutterSnitch along with an EyeFi wireless SD card to accomplish this. I must say, this is a way smarter approach [...]

Twitter for iPad: Finally, a twitter client I can get on board with.

Milind Alvares — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 11:52:55 +0000

Every Twitter client so far had done things the obvious way, the easy way. Of the lot, Twitterrific was the best one. It was simple, looked great, and worked just fine these past four months. But I knew the status quo had to be broken, and if there’s one person who thinks outside the box, [...]

[India] Prices for the all new iPods

Preshit — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 17:15:43 +0000

We’ve just received the prices for the brand new iPod range Steve Jobs introduced at yesterday’s keynote. Nothing too shocking with these prices, although it’s highly recommended that you take these with a pinch of salt — they’re likely to change as we get close to the actual availability as the fine print says that [...]

Thoughts on 10 New Things in iTunes 10

Milind Alvares — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 14:08:56 +0000

iTunes 10 is here, and although there’s no need for a ‘review’ — you’re gonna download and use it anyway — here’s what I think of some of its new features. I will admit beforehand, that I started by writing its title. I don’t usually do such titles, but I really wanted to make it [...]

All new iPods, a great Keynote livestream, and a perfect ending!

Milind Alvares — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 19:38:41 +0000

The September even is one I’ve never been particularly interested in. I’ve never owned an iPod (other than a Shuffle) and usually can only take away iTunes from the entire event. But this time was different. This time not only did we get a new version of iTunes, new iPods, the much rumoured Apple TV, [...]

Last Minute September Event Predictions

Nick Wood — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 10:44:27 +0000

So we’re a few away from another Apple event. The invite shows an obvious slant toward music,and unless you’re a fool, you know that Apple refreshes its iPod line every September like clockwork. However, Apple has expanded its line of devices that use iTunes, and the word “iPod” now refers to an application too; the [...]

“Not the best tool for the job” → Brett Kelly on using the iPad as a content creation device: While there are obvious proofs of the concept that the iPad can be used to create things instead of just consuming them, I think we need to take a step back and consider the idea that just because [...]

Nick Wood — Mon, 30 Aug 2010 19:23:36 +0000

We’ve all come across those apps that are so awesome that they simply must be used all the time. As far as looks go, however, some of these awesomely essential apps are in need of quite a bit of polish (read: they’re hideous). However, every once in awhile, there’ll come an app that falls into [...]
