Poll: Will you be upgrading your iPhone hardware to take advantage of multitasking?
Multitasking is the number one requested feature since the iPhone launched almost three years ago. With the introduction of iPhone OS 4 SDK, Apple has finally brought multitasking to the iPhone and iPod touch. The catch is that you need to have a 3rd gen iPod touch (released in 32 and 64GB ...
Poll: Who's gonna keynote?
Tomorrow, Apple will introduce its iPhone OS 4.0 roadmap. And we'll be there, metaliveblogging our hearts out as the events unroll. The big mystery tonight, at least here in TUAW-land, is who will give the speech. Is this going to be a big-time Steve Jobs keynote? Or can we expect Phil Schiller to ...
Forget the "Crackberry": Stanford students are addicted to their iPhones
Years ago, when the Blackberry started gaining traction among business users, people found themselves using the device so much that the nickname "Crackberry" was invented to describe how addicting the device was. According to a recent survey of 200 Stanford University students, the iPhone is just as ...
iPhone users come in all ages but probably live near a big city
The end of this week has brought a little flurry of information about the differences between iPhone and Android users. First up, Admob has released the results of a survey that says the iPhone is twice as popular as comparable smartphones in both young and old demographics. Unfortunately, we can ...
iPad popular on Twitter, biggest complaint is no Flash
Attensity Group has published a study showing people's attitudes toward the iPad. Their methodology for the study is fairly interesting: They analyzed 20,000 tweets from Twitter two hours before the iPad announcement, another 20,000 two hours after, and another 15,000 four days later. Two bits of ...
TUAW Braintrust: What are your views on keyboards?
Over the last week or two, my keyboard (an inexpensive Macally Apple-style unit) has been dying a slow but inevitable death. When I found myself having to hit the space key about 5 times for each successful contact, I knew it was time to start looking around for a replacement. Of course, the most ...
Second build of Mac OS X 10.6.2 seeded to Apple developers
In the last few days, two builds of Mac OS X 10.6.2 Snow Leopard have been seeded to the Mac developer community. The latest build, 10C591F, is 456.8 MB in size and adds about a dozen changes to the fifty or so tweaks in the prior build. Apple has asked developers to test nearly 150 specific areas ...
iPhone 3.0 Firmware Antici...
With WWDC just a short while away, iPhone users everywhere are looking forward to the upcoming 3.0 firmware release promised back in March. So when will 3.0 debut? Apple hasn't said[1]. In March, Apple promised that 3.0 would appear this Summer, causing pundits to speculate that the firmware and a ...
iPhone OS 3.0 live chat
Update: Well, if what you wanted wasn't in that laundry list, you may just have unrealistic expectations. MMS, copy and paste, downloadable paid content, turn-by-turn, A2DP... the list goes on! We'll have detailed reports momentarily. The bad news is, we don't have anyone on the inside of today's ...
TUAW Poll: What's your favorite nano-chromatic color?
Apple gave us a juicy spectrum of colors yesterday with the new iPod nano, and I find myself wondering which color I'd buy. I really like the green and yellow, simply because they're bright, happy colors. I also like the Denver Broncos (or is it University of Texas?) orange and the Colorado ...
TUAW Poll: What are you doing with your original iPhone?
After looking over the iPhone 3G information here on TUAW and on the AT&T website yesterday, I started thinking about what my wife and I should do with our "old" original iPhones. Without a SIM and phone service, the original iPhone essentially becomes an iPod touch. You can still update it to ...
POLL: Cheetah, Puma, Jaguar, Panther, Tiger, Leopard, and...
Oh my. There's nothing we blog monkeys like more than casting our minds forward to the next greatest thing. Now that Leopard is about here and soon to be common place, what's next? What's Apple's codename for Mac OS X 10.6? You know it's already in development. So what do you TUAW readers think the ...
MacBook price gap shrinks...a little
When the MacBook was first introduced, the difference between a black model and a mid-ranged white one was 20GB of disk space and $200US. Today, you can configure a middle-of-the-road white model to exactly match a top-of-the-line black model, and the difference is $125US. Last May, we asked the ...
Poll Results: Updating your iTunes Music
The results are in! When Apple announced that users will be able to upgrade some of their music to higher bitrate, DRM-free files for $0.30 each, we asked, will you be making the upgrade? Sixty four percent of the 3,951 readers who responded said, "Yes," and the remaining thirty six percent - 1,408 ...
Poll: iPhone at Macworld?
So will there be an iPhone announcement at Macworld? Some speculate that yes, there will be. Others say no, at least not at this time. We here at TUAW are agnostic about the entire issue. We're happy to report rumors about the iPhone in its many possible incarnations--who might manufacture it, what ...
