Smule lancia Trombone, l’applicazione per iPhone (No Comments)

smule-trombone

Dopo l’enorme successo di Ocarina, Smule ha ufficialmente lanciato Trombone, un’applicazione presentata in anteprima durante l’ultimo Keynote di Apple dedicato al Firmware 3.0 dell’iPhone. Trombone è uno strumento musicale ed è stato ispirato da uno strumento a fiato cinese che fa uso di una foglia.

Muovendo su e giù la foglia, infatti, riuscirete a modulare le note per creare interessanti composizioni ed esibirvi di fronte ai vostri amici. Il programma pesa 4,9 MB ed è venduto per 0,79 €. Con un po’ di pratica riuscirete a raggiungere il livello dell’autore del video presente dopo il continua.

Opinion: Microsoft, Myths, and Marketing Part 2 (No Comments)

This is a continuation of my prior article on this subject. Perhaps I shall collate my thoughts on those two advertisements in a future post. Before I proceed with the rest of my prior thoughts, I note that Microsoft appears to have edited its “Lauren—I guess I am not cool enough to be a Mac person” ad to cure some of the glaring deficiencies. Doing that breaks a cardinal rule; it draws attention to the fact that they screwed up the first time. I rarely watch television, but this is what I had noticed was changed:

1. Lauren is not seen both entering and exiting the Apple store; thus the problem of the obvious staging and timing impossibility is avoided.

2. Lauren does not pay with the cash she wasn’t even given yet.

3. And most importantly, Microsoft decided that perhaps it wasn’t such a good idea to tell the world that Apple does have a laptop which costs less than $1,000.00 (US).

You see, I noticed this because I am picky.

Lauren and Microsoft: Oh yeah! Well at least we’re cheap!

Cheap does not necessarily equal value; and value is what is important to the picky consumer (and should be the concern of every consumer). Microsoft pointed out what is true: Macs are generally more expensive than PCs. That’s fine as far as it goes, but why are Macs generally more expensive? And it is in that question that Microsoft has crossed the line of shrewd marketing to—well let’s not shilly-shally—lying. I supported in this accusation in my prior piece, but it can be boiled down to this assertion/insinuatuion by Steve Ballmer: The ONLY reason that Macs are more expensive is the coolness factor (or alternatively, having an Apple logo). I think I actually saw Pinnochio’s Ballmer’s nose grow when he made that statement.

Racing Live: Gestiamo una scuderia di automobili | AppStore (No Comments)

Produttore: Storm8 | Download Via: AppStore | Prezzo: Gratis

Voto Utenti: Note: There is a rating embedded within this post, please visit this post to rate it.

immagine-146Racing Live è un’applicazione gratuita per un periodo di tempo davvero limitato quindi approfittatene immediatamente poichè il prezzo pieno sarà di 3,99€. Grazie a quest’applicazione ci troveremo a gestire una scuderia automobilistica “underground” ovvero saremo i coordinatori di corse clandestine e tanti altri atti non propriamente legali.

A differenza degli altri giochi non saremo noi a sfrecciare tra le strade, ma dovremo soltanto decidere le auto, le carrozzerie, le varie modifiche e preparare gli eventi, diventando dei veri e propri manager che gestiscono gli aspetti tecnici ed economici. E’ consigliata soltanto agli amanti del genere perchè è completamente priva di azione “on the road” ed è in inglese.

Reports: Mac OS 10.5.7 release imminent (No Comments)

Filed under: , ,

Update: EA has noted that The Sims 3, due in June, will require Mac OS 10.5.7. At least we know it will be by then.

Several outlets are reporting today that Mac OS 10.5.7 is due to drop any time now. Build 9J47 was released on Friday, less than a week after 9J44, and build 9J50 is said to have been distributed on Tuesday. Until now, these updates have been delivered weekly. This accelerated distribution, along with a shortening list of fixes (the latest build only addresses three) are clues that 10.5.7 is nearly ready.

Additionally, some customers have reported that the ATI Radeon HD 4850-equipped iMacs that they ordered have had their ship dates bumped up to this week (there's a rumor that the graphics card requires 10.5.7).

We'll let you know when this shows up, and report any changes (or problems) we experience after installation.

TUAWReports: Mac OS 10.5.7 release imminent originally appeared on The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW) on Wed, 15 Apr 2009 15:30:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds.

AT&T tratta per estendere l’esclusiva di iPhone (No Comments)

Secondo il Wall Street Journal AT&T, la famosa compagnia telefonica americana, starebbe trattando per mantenere l’esclusiva di iPhone fino al 2011. Come infatti ben sappiamo, in America AT&T è l’unica compagnia che ha i diritti di vendita su iPhone, inoltre è anche l’unico gestore telefonico su cui funziona iPhone (essendo Sim-Locked).

AT&T vorrebbe prolungare fino al 2011 l’esclusiva su iPhone per poter godere dei benefici di innovazioni in arrivo e rafforzare la sua presenza nel campo dei dispositivi per i dati in mobilità. Apple è diventata un pilastro fondamentale della compagnia; basti pensare che AT&T solo nella seconda metà del 2008 ha aggiunto tra i suoi clienti 4,8 milioni di nuovi abbonati iPhone, di questi il 40% erano anche nuovi clienti AT&T.
