Full FeedApple is already developing Mac OS X 10.7
Not even three months after publicly launching Mac OS X 10.6, coined Snow Leopard, Apple is already working on the next addition to the OS X family. This information has been confirmed by database changes to the open source “launchd” framework which deals with OS X booting and administering running processes, as it cites an error message that references a “11A47” build number.
Palm releases webOS 1.3.1 without iTunes syncing capablities
In a surprising move by Palm after its many “cat-and-mouse” games with Apple, the company has not included iTunes syncing capabilities in the latest version of its smartphone operating system. Palm’s webOS has been syncing on and off with iTunes since the release of the Palm Pre earlier this year by presenting itself as an iPod in order to trick iTunes into recognizing it as a valid syncable device.
Appletell reviews Voiis Stereo Wireless Music Gateway [updated]
Mobile Action creates many great technological products, and the Voiis Stereo Wireless Music Gateway is no exception. This handy device is extremely useful for those with Bluetooth home stereo systems and headsets, as the device’s main feature is Bluetooth connectivity. If you’re lacking one or both of these, I don’t recommend buying this product even though it comes with cables that enable its features without a Bluetooth receiver.
WordPress 2 now available for the iPhone
Popular blog publishing software, WordPress, has recently released version 2.0 of its software. However, it has been released as a separate application, like what was done with Tweetie 2, so don’t bother checking for an update to your already-downloaded WordPress app. WordPress 2 brings an impressive redesign and a bunch of new features.
Bobba Bar is on its way to the iPhone and iPod touch
Are you familiar with Habbo Hotel? The company behind the sensational virtual world, Sulake, Inc., has created a similar pocketsize virtual world for mobile devices known as Bobba (or Bobba Bar for the iPhone version). Bobba has already been out on various smartphones for a few months now, and the company is now focusing on bringing the popular virtual world to the iPhone and iPod touch. The 1.0 version of the app has already been submitted to Apple for review, and should make it into the App Store any day now.
Apple’s new 27-inch iMacs apparently experiencing performance issues
Apple’s discussion forums have begun to flood with threads by users complaining of poor performance on the company’s new 27-inch iMacs, which were introduced to the public last week. Several different performance issues have been reported, such as the inappropriate spinning down of the hard drive and corrupted Snow Leopard installations, although one issue seems to be most common—poor Flash performance (particularly video playback).
iPhone has finally launched in China
The iPhone has finally officially launched in China, with one major feature missing: built-in Wi-Fi. A ban on Wi-Fi by the Chinese government had forced Apple to produce iPhones with Wi-Fi removed specifically for sale in China, but the ban on Wi-Fi had been lifted shortly after Apple started producing the modified iPhones.
Apple seeds Mac OS X 10.6.2 build 10C535 to developers

According to reports, the new build focuses on graphics drivers, trackpad preferences and virtual machine creation, and continues to list that there are no known issues remaining. This information suggests that Apple is finishing up the 10.6.2 update and will release it to users in the near feature.
Apple’s Magic Mouse makes it to retail stores
The current word is that most Apple retail stores have received and begun to sell the new Magic Mouse. We reported earlier that Apple had started giving out shipping notices to customers who bought the Magic Mouse online. I haven’t actually gone to my local Apple retail store, but have also heard from friends that the new mice were there.
