This whole rumor was probably triggered by the fact that iOS 4.3 beta 1 for iPad comes with multitouch gesture controls for changing applications (by swiping multiple fingers horizontally, like on the Mac for changing pages), returning to home screen (by the 5-finger pinch), etc. These gestures definitely will be familiar to current Mac users […]

Fake 4th gen iPod Nano “leaked image”
Posted September 7th, 2008 by Ryu at 4:00 am in iPod and Rumors. 4 CommentsHow fake? Totally fake. Whoever took this picture just used one of those fake Chinese-made “MP4” Nano-lookalikes available for cheap in Sim Lim Square and stuffed it in a 2nd Gen Nano case. Big deal. Too fake. Edit: For the moron who called me an idiot while saying that the above photograph is real, take […]
TUAW is reporting that someone has successfully attached a mike to the iPod Touch and make it able to receive and record audio, suggesting that a iPod Touch-based VoIP device is possible, which will (in theory) eliminate the need for the iPhone. To me this all sounds like the not-so-strong cult following of people who […]

I personally don’t think too much of the issue, but since it will be of interest to those who […]
New iPod Touch available in Singapore
Posted September 17th, 2007 by Ryu at 11:14 pm in iPod. 8 CommentsFinally, some reliable sources tell MacRyu.com that the iPod Touch will be on sale from tomorrow onwards, at iShop only! Who’s going down tomorrow to check the Touch out? ME! Edit: Argh. Wrong info after all. iShop has the stock in already but they refuse to sell.
Shipping on 28th Sep, or so says the Apple Online Store. But according to here and many other sites, the iPod Touch has already hit many places in the United States! So where the hack are they? My Apple Online Store Order Status is still “Shipping on 28th Sept, deliver by 1st Oct”. ARGH!!!! According […]
