iPhone 4G : Face Time = Yoghurt Phone !
Jun 8th
With “Face Time” the new iPhone 4G will allow you to ring a buddy on his iPhone 4G and enjoy video calls. That feature is so limited & retarded that we can only say one more thing : Apple (re)invented the yoghurt phone ! Yay ! 
You Need a Credit Card to Deserve an iPad !
May 18th
Setve Jobs only sells iPads to credit card holders. Recently a low income woman asked to buy an iPad without a credit card and she was simply told by Apple reps to get one (credit card) if she wants one (iPad). Apple uses this drastic method to try to limit sales of iPads per person to two units max. Give a little power to a guy (Steve Jobs), and he will make your day !
iPhone 4G Leaked ?
Apr 20th
Gizmodo claims this is the next iPhone 4G. The thing is supposed to have been lost by an Apple engineer in a pub while he was like trying to swim in several masses of bear.
Well, that’s rumor, That’s Internet.
If this is more or less what the iPhone 4G will look like, for sure Apple recently hired a Chinese design manager, who now needs to re-design it ! 
Apple to Remove Google from iPhone ?
Feb 2nd
Will Apple kick out Google from the iPhone and replace it with Bing ? Apple sleeping with Microsoft to fight Google ? Woaw !
But as things flow, with Google gaining market share and eating iPhone’s potential, that weird relationship could become reality. That’s how things go, sometimes you don’t make decisions to make things happen, but to avoid them.
iPad = iPhone for Giant Ears !
Jan 27th
So this is it. A big iPhone for $499 + data plan from $14/month. Yeee! Don’t get me wrong : this is not a Kindle or e-Book reader replacement. This is a netbook replacement. The iPad is the Apple netbook, but compatible with nothing but Apple. Not a real productivity tool (9,7 inch screen, c’mon!), more a “indulge myself” extra toy to carry around if you have big ears (to phone).
Planet tech is saying this will accelerate the shift of the media industry to digital, because it provides the best in class book reader experience so far. Well, time will tell but at $499, we’ll certainly have to wait for revision 2 or 3 to do the jump. For the most impatient, hey, you can change the background now !
Apple = Money !
Jan 26th
Apple released it’s best quarter ever with $15,7 billion turnover. The main reason if the iPhone, with 8,7 units in hands of happy custommers.
Today is the day of maybe another cash cow for Apple : The Tablet Day.
iPad, iTablet, iSlate, iPhonette… you name it. But hey, you know the real name of it : money !
Steve Wozniak Loves Nexus One !
Jan 17th
Apple’s co-founder Steve Wozniak seems to be a fan of the last Google phone, the Nexus One. Wise man as indeed that phone is in most aspects superior to the iPhone. The competition path is now open in the smartphones field. Apple can’t pretend anymore that other player are still copying the iPhone 2G. Read the rest of this entry »
Apple to Sell 10 Million Tablets !
Jan 1st
At $999 each, that’s a great first year 10 billion market. And with a 36% gross margin or so, I let you do the profitability math !

$999 naked you said ? Humm… don’t expect it to be bargain !
