RealNetworks releases RealPlayer SP beta for Mac
RealNetworks has released the public beta for the latest upgrade to their RealPlayer software package for Macintosh, which allows you to download video and convert it for your device in just two clicks. Having used the software for a few days now, I can say that it really is as simple as they claim; just download and convert. The rest is handled by the software in its clean, updated interface.
Is the iPad what consumers are looking for?
It seems our enthusiasm for technology and, in particular, Apple products, isn’t shared by everyone. In a couple of surveys conducted by SoftwareAdvice and Retrevo.com around the launch of the Apple iPad, the results are a bit of a shock. One focuses on the healthcare sector, the other on the general consumer electronics market, and both indicate there’s not much interest in the iPad.
iPad games - utilizing the larger display
At the unveiling of the iPad, one of the many features mentioned was the ability to run almost every one of the 140,000 iPhone apps already available. If you chose to, you can view the app as normal or full-screen by doubling each pixel. But will an iPad optimized app look that much better? Judging from these images posted by Kevin Ng, the answer to that is a resounding “Yes.”
Apple announces iWork for iPad
It was a high possibility that Apple would release a new version of iWork for 2010, but no one really saw iWork coming to the brand new Apple iPad.

Apple announces the Apple iPad
It’s hereit’s official. Apple has just announced the Apple iPad. Steve Jobs said on stage that the iPad will be “... way better than a laptop, way better than an phone.” It looks, as you can see, quite similar to the iPhone and iPod touch. It has the same home screen button and the same icons (albeit more spread out).
Film rental comes to YouTube
YouTube has ventured into the world of online film rental, offering five (yes, five) movies available to watch for just $3.99 each. The films currently on offer are from independent film makers, meaning that, at present, there are no blockbuster titles. Will they be coming in the future? We hope so. Will we be able to watch them through the YouTube iPhone application? Doubtful, but we can hope.
Apple tablet: one fan’s concept drawings
Some people aren’t too bothered for next week’s Apple event. Some are obsessively reading each and every rumor, unable to sleep in anticipation of what might emerge from the keynote. Other, however, put their opinions onto paper. Or rather, Photoshop. Let’s take a look at a couple of concept drawings put together.
It’s official - Apple event planned for January 27th
It was almost common knowledge that Apple had something planned for the 27th of January but finally, nine days before the date, they have confirmed it by sending out the usual invitations. There’s always a little piece of text on the invitations that, while not necessarily giving a hint, certainly make you think. On the invitation for this event, it reads: “Come see our latest creation.”
