Free Apps roundup for November 20th, 2009
It’s the week before the week that’s before Thanksgiving, so I’m sure you’re quite ready for the break from work next week. Of course, just because you aren’t at your day job doesn’t mean you don’t have more work to be done. That’s fine, this week I found a few apps to help, especially if you’re beginning to shop for the holidays. There are a few apps and games to help you find the deals and relax, possibly while waiting in line for said deals.
Apple Tablet delayed until late 2010?
The rumors just keep rolling in on Apple’s now legendary tablet. Sadly, they don’t always get better. The latest rumor from DigiTimes claims we’ll have to wait even longer to get our hands on that Apple Tablet we all want so badly. But don’t get too sad, the extended wait is said to bring some benefits, like a lower price and an OLED option.
Apple’s Black Friday to be surprisingly bright?
The BoyGeniusReport received a rumor earlier this week that claims to have the details on Apple’s Black Friday plans. The rumor contains a “leaked” image that displays all the deals for the day, which include up to 30% off iPods (excluding the iPhone and iPod shuffle), up to 25% off Macs, and up to 15% off accessories. The sale would only be valid for November 27th, 2009, and as far as I can gather, only in store (not online).
Appletell reviews Konnet’s iCrado iDevice cradle
Is your iPhone or iPod’s USB cable leaving you with a frown on your face? It’s just not as supportive as you might need, and that’s understandable. What you need is some support! Konnet has a potential solution for you with their very colorful iCrado. So what exactly is it? It’s an iPod cradle. Nothing more, nothing less. It holds your iPod and little else. Thankfully, it does this with a touch of style.

There are plenty of freebies on the App Store this week. Thanks to ngmoco, we have another superb game, as if Eliminate wasn’t quite enough last week. But don’t worry, there’s more. We have other games, utilities, etc. Check it out.
Apple patents pen-based tablet input
In the past, Apple had not been fond of stylus or pen-based input, but it seems that ignorance of the pen is nowhere to be found when it comes to tablets. This July, Apple filed a patent for pen-based input for tablets involving what they call “ink phrases.” The patent details a different approach to handwriting recognition; instead of breaking down individual strokes, it attempts to recognize entire phrases.
Uniea iPhone case roundup
Uniea recently refreshed their line of iPhone cases, and the company is ready and waiting for you to pick from among their selection. From minimalistic cases at $34.95 to hip holsters for the same price and even an exercise armband at a nice low $24.95, Uneia has your iPhone covered, quite literally. Everyone’s different, and your taste in cases is certainly no exception. Thankfully, Uniea has a lot of options, just like always.
Navigon announces Traffic Live for MobileNavigator North America
The best GPS app on iPhone just got a little bit better. Navigon’s MobileNavigator is already an amazing GPS routing app with its voice prompted directions, smoothly animated maps and excellent everything-I-can-think-of, but Today they’ve added Traffic Live for North America.
Appletell reviews iStoragePro’s Pocket HDD
iStoragePro’s Pocket hard drives replicate the look and feel of the G-Technology line of Mac inspired portable hard drives, but are they as good?Both look like they belong with a Mac. Both are bus powered over USB 2.0 or FireWire and include all possible cables (USB, FireWire 400 and 800). Both are well made and attractive. The designs are different, but the only obvious, external difference is the brand name. And honestly, on the inside, they are pretty similar too.
