Apple announces September 12 (iPhone 5) event

Posted: 04 Sep 2012 10:02 AM PDT

Apple has announced the special September 12 event by way of invites to members of the press. As can be seen from invitation above, there’s a tagline “It’s almost here”, along with the number 12 and a huge shadow of ’5′. Needless to say, this all but confirms that the iPhone 5 will officially be unveiled that day. So does this mean that the phone will be called iPhone 5 and not the ‘new iPhone’, as was the case with the most recent iPad? Judging by the image alone, it’s entirely possible that Apple will keep the numbering system with each new iPhone release.

The event will take place on Sept 12 at the Yerba Buena Center for Arts at 10:00 am. Let the count down begin.

10 New App Store Games To Watch [August 27 - September 2]

Posted: 04 Sep 2012 08:47 AM PDT

There were certainly enough new arrivals to keep even the most discerning gamer busy on their iOS devices this week.  The biggest surprise to me was Final Fantasy Dimensions, the newest offering from Square Enix.  I don't know what rock I've been living under, but I had no idea this game was coming to iOS devices, and you can even try the prologue for free.  If you're more into puzzle games Illusion Labs has resurfaced with their latest concept called Blast-A-Way.  This 3D brain teaser has plenty of explosions, cute robots and even more adorable mischief makers.  If you just want something that proves you're never too old to have fun, check out Granny Smith from No Can Win.  This quirky racer has you trying to recover apples before a rascally thief, and oh the places you'll go.

Etymotic delivers Awareness app to Android and iOS

Posted: 04 Sep 2012 01:44 AM PDT

Audiophiles are already aware of Etymotic, the company that single-handedly invented the world of inner earphones. Their ER4 series revolutionised portable audio before you were born. I can think of no other name to which my silly bicycle hat is tipped to more often. God bless you Etymotic. Well, their rather well-known app collaboration with Essensy, Awareness, has finally made it to Android, too. Awareness allows you to hear what’s around you no matter that you’re plugged into some of the best noise-isolating earphones in the world. Etymotic have always been about hearing safety. Awareness uses the microphones in their hf3 and mc3 headsets to filter in the important stuff: announcements, safety alerts, etc., so that you can enjoy your music in safety.

Awareness has been available on iOS for a while, but it’s great to see Android getting some love (especially since I’ve become an iBasso DX100 owner). Evidently, you don’t have to be plugged into 4,1 Ice Cream Sandwich to use the functionality, either. (God knows you are damned lucky if you can get 4,1 working on your system.) Now, I don’t have either earphone to test Awareness in iOS or Android, but damn it, it doesn’t matter. Someone will. Enjoy your music in safety, people.

Press stuff after the jump

MyST 1866 Wireless DAC and headphone amp for your iPhone

Posted: 03 Sep 2012 09:51 PM PDT

Last month, Musica Acoustics had me photograph their new MyST 1866, a portable DAC unit from MyCroft that Dimitri was very excited about. The lad is almost always lost for words about cool new things, so I patted him on the shoulder and took the unit to my office. I shot the thing. I turned it on and off. I listened to it. Then I emailed Dimitri and threatened a review.

iPhone 5′s 4-inch screen in action [Video]

Posted: 03 Sep 2012 10:39 AM PDT

With the release of the iPhone 5 just weeks ago (more specifically, on Sept 21st as rumor would have it), no doubt one of the most anticipated new features of the phone is its 4″ screen. With the larger real estate, more apps and content will naturally be squeezed in. So in case you’ve been wondering what it’ll all look like, check out this this great video MacRumours had put together. With a screen resolution of 1136×640, this video demo shows how games, apps and movies might appear on the next gen iPhone. Of course, how iOS 6 will run on the taller iPhone is purely speculative at the moment, but I wouldn’t be surprised if this mock up turns out nearly identical to the real thing.

Kodiak PHP lets you Run PHP code offline on your iPad

Posted: 02 Sep 2012 06:06 PM PDT

For all the (web) developers out there, one of the most appealing aspects of coding on the iPad is that they can easily take their work with them anywhere. While there are a handful of programming editors on the App Store, none – at least when it comes to PHP – allow offline PHP execution. Thanks to the Kodiak dev team however, that’s no longer the case with the release of Kodiak PHP, the first iOS app that can run your precious code without an internet connection.

Tap The Frog 2 – Kiss It, But Don’t Expect A Prince

Posted: 02 Sep 2012 11:34 AM PDT

In my humble opinion, if ever there was a style of game that shouldn't be so fun or addictive, it would be the mini-game collection.  After all, doesn't such a design simply mean that the developers couldn't come up with enough material for a full fledged game?  Well, okay, I am being a bit harsh, and I really don't believe that, but it still amazes me that I fall so easily for this type of gameplay.  The latest captor of my time is Tap The Frog 2, and this game is insanely addictive – even though concept wise it’s so simple a little kid could grasp it with ease.  I just wish I had the native iPad version, because I find that my overcompensated fingers like the big screen better.  Thankfully, the app is remarkably playable on 2x mode on my iPad 2.

Customer Reviews

By KM

Just had this delivered to my house yesterday evening. Syncing the bluetooth with my Droid 3 was very easy and was able to immediately start streaming Pandora from my phone to the speaker. Sound was not the best in the world but for the price and size of this, it was quite impressive. After hearing the sound out of this thing and then the price I paid for it, my roommate immediately purchased one for his room. I would definitely recommend this if you are looking for something that puts out pretty good sound for a great price and does not require speaker wires.

By Frank O

Purchased this when it was $35. Great value at this price. Easily paired it with my Galaxy Nexus phone and Nexus 7 tablet for when I want better sound out. Make no mistake, it doesn't have enough volume to fill a big room, but it does give a convenient way to boost your mobile devices audio.
