iPhone 4 / iOS4 – No Privacy, Constant Info Sent to Apple + AT&T

Yep. Apple decided that it would be a great idea to constantly have their iPhone 4 send information that should generally remain private to both AT&T and themselves. In my opinion, this makes it crap, though I’m sure a lot of the Apple fans won’t really care. Here’s some informaton on them FORCING updates on your phone…Not that everything in quotes was said by an employee of Apple:

Apple Unveils New In-Phone Ad System
Last Updated on Monday, 7 June 2010 06:20 Written by servbot_kill Monday, 7 June 2010 06:20
Well, it’s finally here: along with Steve Jobs’ introduction of a shining, tempered-glass and aluminum shelled new generation iPhone that’s had a good part of the internet in uproarious joy, so too came the ad service that more than a few people had speculated would come (I’m sure they have anyways).
Called iAd (duh), the service will see in-app ads that will be themselves interactive in some form or another. While these ads will take up the entire screen, there will be options to close out the ads and won’t be locked in place. Additionally, since it’s Apple, there’s a rather high probability that we’ll see advertisers wrung through the same strict standards that app developers are. Anything remotely resembling a Head-On commercial on the iPhone is, I think, doubtful (unless you pull it up deliberately on YouTube to annoy someone else).

Smartphone Operating System Marketshare
Last Updated on Monday, 10 May 2010 08:59 Written by DarkKnightH20 Tuesday, 11 May 2010 10:00
A lot of people assume that either the iPhone OS or Google Android OS are the #1 smartphone operating systems used. Actually, they’re not! The number one spot belongs to….RIM! With their BlackBerry operating system. Android takes second place, which use to belong to Apple, who now takes third place instead. Here’s a chart to put things in a more visual perspective–
Obviously Android will stay on the rise and, in my opinion, overtake the number 1 spot easily. This is because Android is an operating system that isn’t specific to a certain brand of phone, unlike Apple, and therefore can expand easily.

Free Apple iPod Touch / iPhone App: Top 100s by Year
Last Updated on Monday, 3 May 2010 09:40 Written by DarkKnightH20 Monday, 3 May 2010 09:39
This cool app, which uses Microsoft’s Bing, allows you to not only see what the top 100 songs were each year (from 1947 to 2009), but also listen to them! That’s right, you can stream each song. How are these lists made? “These lists are not solely based on the Billboard charts and record sales, instead, these are lists of songs that have stood the test of time based on their initial and lasting popularity, and on their impact on the overall scope of musical history.” Neat! “The songs are streamed in shuffle mode like a web radio station through 3G, Edge or Wi-fi”.
