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 who already have similar multitouch gestures, and will no doubt will work on the big and nice 9.7-inch iPad screen.
Humor site full of #FAIL from the iPhone’s very powerful, yet also sometimes, very uncontrollable autocorrection function
Here’s an example.
Nearly laughed and choked to death at dinner last night when a friend introduced me the site.
First Post of 2011 – MacRyu’s iMac Setup 2011
Almost five years ago, I posted my iMac setup (basically the stuff that’s on my work desk 90% of the time) on flickr. Since that time, components of that 2007 setup have changed, items have been removed and added, well, mostly added (thus a much messier table), and for the first post of 2011, I thought I’ll post some photos of my current work desk setup.
Here is the original September 2007 MacRyu iMac Setup.
And here are the January 2011 MacRyu iMac Setup photos……
IPad cases review: Fabrix Booklet for iPad
I have to admit that I was kinda jealous when Lester from lesterchan.net posted that he received a free faux black Fabrix Booklet for simply being a “great supporter”. Thus I was so thrilled when I was presented with a brown “Classic Tan” Fabrix Booklet for review a week or two ago.
Have always been a Fabrix Cases fan since my University days, since they are one of the very few Singaporean companies that make high quality accessories and cases for Apple products (majority of the local ones produce crappy generic China-made cheap stuff that does little to glorify the Apple products that they are used with) and are well-known internationally.
Blogger-Reviewers, Tech Reviews, Bias, Freebies, Rants and why Apple Singapore hates me
Warning – This article might come across as being messy and distasteful.
Let’s face it – everyone has their bias. Every blogger, reviewer has their own bias. Anyone telling you otherwise is just plain lying in your face.
Sites that try to be like Engadget and Gizmodo are totally biased as well – they tend to be bias towards Engadget’s reviews. And since Engadget loves to write what I call a favor of reviews which I like to term “not here not there”, the kind of reviews you get from such sites are usually “neither here nor there” either.
Which might be just what you want – if you are not a fan of any brand or company – in other words, if you lack passion about your gadgets.
Do you?
A little bird chirps…
… “majority of our production lines for ipad and iphone components have been retooled for MacBook Air component production“.
Seems like Apple is expecting a big hit with the new Air.

Here’s engadget’s mp3 of his great words.
