Interesting idea - a ring as the remote. Can't wait to lose that remote though. Guessing that the opening price of $1500 makes this product have a great price point and the add on tablets (that may interact with the on screen content) could make viewing very different.

Some interesting stuff in this short article but the most significant is that iOS 7 is running behind schedule. Apple tends to release a new OS with new phones and then make it available as an upgrade a couple of weeks later for older hardware users. This all affects the next iPhone release...

This last CES was a boon for us with great products to work with. Today we are going to look at one product that may be the most useful product of the entire show. EnerPlex was kind enough to send both an iPhone 4s and Samsung Galaxy S III Surfr for review. What's a Surfr? How about an external...

LifeProof recently sent in two of their iPhone cases for evaluation. One for iPhone 4S and one for iPhone 5. Previously with my iPhone I've been using an Otter Box case. I liked that it had a rigid case that was surrounded by a soft rubber case. Sadly, after about of a year of use my Otter Box...

The idea of trying to watch Facebook videos or read e-mail on a watch just doesn't appeal to me. I stopped wearing a watch a few years ago just because quite literally there's a clock around me at all times - my phone, computers at work, on the walls, etc. Now I'm supposed to be web connected...

Most of this isn't new information but seems like the release dates have firmed up for a lot of products. I think the June release for the iPhone 5s is more realistic as the phone releases are usually closely tied to OS updates for older phones.

Happy New Year!
No real surprises in this article but this is the first report I've seen with a tentative release date. Samsung hit a home run with the Galaxy phones so it stands to reason a larger screen is in the iPhone's future. What is odd is the idea that there may be different screen sizes...

Put this one in the incredibly long title category. The timing of this possible iPhone is about right as it stays with past trends. Super HD display? I thought the Retina Display was Super HD? To me the better battery mentioned would make this a worthy purchase.

Recently we posted
a news story that showed some Mac products are stamped 'Assembled in U.S.A.' Looks like these units may have been early production units from an undisclosed U.S. assembly facility.

From iFixit’s ritual iMac dismemberment yesterday, we learn that the particular 21.5-inch iMac they bought says it was "Assembled in USA”. The moniker isn’t new—we’ve seen it since at least a few iMac models back on the packaging. But as far as we can tell, "Assembled in USA”...

Unfortunately there is no photo to go with this article but anyone with an iPhone knows how bad the battery life is.
Read the article here. Apple is always slow to allow third party accessories so anyone with an iPhone 5 might be on the lookout for this.

Reports of problems with the iPhone 5 continue. This is probably why I always wait for the second edition of a phone from Apple before jumping in. A couple of fixes are in this article and it leads to other articles with more fixes.
