<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Have just seen a new notice on the ADC site offering all the iPhone dev track sessions from WWDC 2008 on video.</p>
<p>Hmm; this looks like a must-have to me! Shame it&#8217;s not free ($499/£300) but you get 55 videos and I guess they are all going to be fairly long and in-depth.</p>
<p>Will definitely buy these but am buying a Mac in the next couple of days (probably a Mini as apparently good enough for iPhone dev work), so don&#8217;t want to get ahead of oneself!</p>

<p style="text-align:left;">Obviously I can&#8217;t cover all of the stuff that happened at WWDC but I did cover the two main parts. So, if you want to get more info of the iPhone 3G, Mobile Me or just everything else in the keynote there are many ways to do so.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Engadget wraps things up quite nicely on this little post <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/09/wwdc-2008-coverage-roundup-the-iphone-3g-has-landed/">here</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">TUAW has their coverage <a href="http://www.tuaw.com/wwdc08/">here</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">If you wanna see everything else you can go <a href="http://events.apple.com.edgesuite.net/0806wdt546x/event/index.html">here</a> to watch the Keynote in SD or HD.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">Of course there are many more information spots out there to see everything that happened in the Keynote, but these three are my favorite! I hope you enjoy!</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">This has been IPGM&#8217;s WWDC 2008 coverage.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img src="http://images.apple.com/mobileme/images/overview_hero20080609.jpg" alt="" width="745" height="266" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">
<p>There are a lot of things to talk about from WWDC 2008, so i’m going to talk about it in 3 parts. The first part was the iPhone 3G. The second part covers the new Mobile Me service! Lets go!</p>
<p><strong>The Good</strong></p>
<p>Mobile Me is a new service that replaces the old .Mac serivce(which replaced the iTools service). I give Apple an A+ for designing something like this. First off, it&#8217;s great that Apple knows that there are people out there who want a personal exchange service but just can&#8217;t get it due to the fact that exchanges is for businesses. I also think its great how Apple designed the product. It&#8217;s great that they put it out onto Windows and it&#8217;s also great that they made the whole program look great even on the web! So, far, Apple your doing a great job. No I want to talk about the logo(pictured above in the center). Many people say that the logo is terrible garbage. Now, I do agree that it&#8217;s no the best logo, but then again, Apple is trying to make this product a product thast is friendly to the common people. Think about what their goal was for the iPhone, a simple and easy to use phone that had great features and that anyone could use. Well if you think about what they were trying to do with the iPhone, then think about their goal for Mobile Me. It&#8217;s the same. With the iPhone, they used touch controls to make people understand the phone better. With Mobile Me, they are doing the same thing buy representing the exchange service with a cloud. Thus, the cloud appears in the logo. Even though it&#8217;s not the BEST logo, it still tries to get people to understand the service better. Overall, I think the logo is fine, and on top of that, kudos to apple for making the product. Many people have waited for it.</p>
<p><strong>The Bad</strong></p>
<p>Overall, I can&#8217;t find too many bad things about the Mobile Me service. Other than charging $99 dollars a year. Which if you think about it really isn&#8217;t that bad, but they make it sound bad by having a big amount of money listed. Couldn&#8217;t they just say something like &#8220;Only $8 a month!&#8221; Other than making it sound like it costs alot just for one service, Mobile Me looks like a hit.</p>
<p>Overall, Mobile Me looks like a great service. Too bad i won&#8217;t be getting it because I won&#8217;t be getting an iPhone. Don&#8217;t get me wrong, I still think the iPhone is the greatest phone out there. Unfortunatly, I just can’t get one because they’re AT&#38;T only.</p>
<p>Look for Part III later this week.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Depois da poeira dos an&#250;ncios da WWDC assentar (e de ter feito um teste esta manh&#227;), chegou a altura de dar a minha opini&#227;o sobre a Keynote.</p>
<p>O seguimento da Keynote foi feito na sala de IRC que o <a href="http://www.sixhat.net">David Rodrigues</a> criou, no <a href="http://www.macrumorslive.com">MacRumorsLive</a>, no <a href="http://www.engadget.com">Engadget</a> e num stream sonoro que foi disponibilizado online no site Ustream. A experi&#234;ncia n&#227;o foi a melhor. A todos os que est&#225;vamos a comentar a keynote no canal de IRC, pareceu-nos que estivemos mais de uma hora a apanhar uma seca e que a parte interessante s&#243; foram os &#250;ltimos 20 minutos, onde foi apresentado o iPhone 3G. N&#227;o podia-mos estar mais equivocados, se tiverem tempo, vejam a Keynote em video. Acreditem que v&#227;o gostar de ver os programas que foram demonstrados, que d&#227;o um cheirinho do que vamos poder ver na AppStore no seu lan&#231;amento em Setembro.</p>
<p>Download video: 1.18Gb &#8211; <a href="http://movies.apple.com/movies/us/podcast/apple_keynotes/wwdc2008.m4v">Link</a></p>
<p>Acreditando que j&#225; todos sabem o que foi apresentado na Keynote, ficam de seguida as minhas opini&#245;es sobre os diversos t&#243;picos abordados. Se n&#227;o acompanharam a keynote, deixarei os links para cada produto para poderem explorar posteriormente.</p>
<p><strong>iPhone</strong> &#8211; <a href="http://www.apple.com/iphone/">http://www.apple.com/iphone/</a></p>
<p>O foco principal da Keynote foi a apresenta&#231;&#227;o das novas funcionalidades do iPhone.</p>
<p>Destas novas funcionalidades, destaco:</p>
<p>- O suporte para a plataforma da Microsoft Exchange 2007. Esta plataforma &#233; basicamente um standard no mundo empresarial, e o que a Apple fez com a adop&#231;&#227;o desta plataforma foi viabilizar a entrada do iPhone no mundo empresarial.</p>
<p>- A inclus&#227;o do protocolo 802.1X, o que permitir&#225; aos utilizadores de iPhones e iPod Touch o acesso &#224;s redes privadas das empresas e das universidades (eudoram no IST por exemplo funciona sobre este protocolo).</p>
<p>- A solu&#231;&#227;o da Apple para o problema das background apps. &#192; primeira vista parece uma solu&#231;&#227;o muito interessante. Deixar o processamento de pedidos nas m&#227;os dos servidores dos developers e mandar uma notifica&#231;&#227;o a um iPhone a dizer que tem um evento &#224; espera numa aplica&#231;&#227;o que n&#227;o est&#225; a correr. O utilizador &#233; avisado, e quando lan&#231;ar a aplica&#231;&#227;o, recebe a informa&#231;&#227;o toda vinda dos servidores dos developers. Resta ver &#233; a implementa&#231;&#227;o dos clientes de instant messaging, por exemplo, v&#227;o lidar com o sistema.</p>
<p>- Sistema de reconhecimento de caracteres asi&#225;ticos. N&#227;o que me interesse, mas sempre &#233; um bom exemplo do que se pode fazer com o touchscreen do iPhone.</p>
<p>- 3G, para muitos era o que faltava ao iPhone para ser o telem&#243;vel perfeito. Estes j&#225; n&#227;o se podem queixar.</p>
<p>- A-GPS. Algo n&#227;o essencial para mim. Mas se vem incluido nos $199 que custa o iPhone n&#227;o me posso queixar.</p>
<p>Entretanto j&#225; foram mostrados previews de programas, dos quais destaco o preview da ArsTechnica da vers&#227;o para iPhone do NetNewsWire (link est&#225; no post anterior). Cheira-me que me vai dar muito jeito para que as aulas passem mais depressa.</p>
<p>Resta saber se ser&#225; permitido enviar apps para o iPhone gratuitamente se, por exemplo, um cliente comprou a vers&#227;o desktop dum programa. Isto &#233;, por exemplo, tendo eu comprado o MarsEdit e se hipot&#233;ticamente o Daniel Jalkut lan&#231;asse uma vers&#227;o para iPhone do programa, eu podia ir buscar gratuitamente essa aplica&#231;&#227;o, mas quem n&#227;o tivesse a vers&#227;o Desktop teria que pagar um valor x pela mesma.</p>
<p>Est&#225; confirmado que vamos ter o iPhone c&#225; em Portugal dia 11 de Julho, isto claro se os camionistas acabarem com os piquetes de greve at&#233; l&#225;, resta saber o pre&#231;o em Euros e os pre&#231;os dos tarif&#225;rios. Ao c&#226;mbio actual, a vers&#227;o de 8Gb ficaria por &#8364;127 e as vers&#245;es de 16Gb a &#8364;192. E o tio Steve disse que iria custar &#8220;a maximum of $199&#8243; na maioria dos pa&#237;ses. </p>
<p><strong>MobileMe</strong> &#8211; <a href="http://www.apple.com/mobileme/">http://www.apple.com/mobileme/</a> <a href="http://www.me.com">www.me.com</a></p>
<p>N&#227;o sou utilizador nem da plataforma .mac, nem o sou do <a href="http://calendar.google.com">Google Calendar</a> por exemplo. Mas se vier a comprar um iPhone irei com a maior das certezas experimentar o servi&#231;o j&#225; que tem um trial time de 60 dias, o que deve dar para ver as capacidades do mesmo. Depois verei se valer&#225; a pena pagar os $99 anuais. Pelo que vi na Keynote, tem muito potencial.</p>
<p><strong>10.6 Snow Leopard</strong> &#8211; <a href="http://www.apple.com/macosx/snowleopard/">http://www.apple.com/macosx/snowleopard/</a></p>
<p>Tendo em conta que o que nos foi dado a saber deste nova vers&#227;o do OS X, tenho tr&#234;s observa&#231;&#245;es a fazer.</p>
<p>A concorr&#234;ncia &#233; t&#227;o boa que a Apple se pode dar ao luxo de congelar as user features, lembrem-se que foram mais de 300 para o Leopard (10.5), para se poderem concentrar em optimizar o c&#243;digo do sistema operativo, prepara-lo para o futuro e introduzir novas frameworks internas. Destas frameworks internas, uma &#233; dedicada ao processamento (paralelo em) multi-core (GrandCentral) e a outra para utilizar o poder de processamento das placas gr&#225;ficas em aplica&#231;&#245;es &#8220;n&#227;o gr&#225;ficas&#8221; (OpenCL), algo que a nVidia tamb&#233;m est&#225; a desenvolver com a sua plataforma CUDA. </p>
<p>Como pagaram o licenciamento do Exchange para poder utilizar o ActiveSync, fazem tamb&#233;m o favor de o incluir no Mac OS X (Desktop) e logo ai atraem mais empresas &#224; plataforma Mac.</p>
<p>Estamos a um ano de dist&#226;ncia do seu lan&#231;amento, e resta ver o pre&#231;o que lhe v&#227;o dar. Com as features que conhecemos at&#233; agora, n&#227;o sei at&#233; que ponto &#233; que o utilizador comum, a quem pouco lhe interessa o Grand Central e o OpenCL, estar&#225; disposto a dar os $129 do costume.</p>
<p>A vers&#227;o Server vai trazer suporte para o t&#227;o esperado sistema de ficheiros da SUN, ZFS. A quest&#227;o que se coloca &#233;: &#8220;Porque &#233; que s&#243; a vers&#227;o Server vai ter suporte para o ZFS?&#8221;</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>So, endlich die Keynote von Onkel Jobs &#38; Co gesehen.<br />
 Hat sich mal wieder sehr gelohnt.</p>
<p>Weniger wegen der vorgestellten Dinge. SDK, AppStore, iPhone-Software 2.0 &#8211; alles genau so schon im März durchgekaut. Echt neu war nur die Oberfläche/einige Funktionen des mobile me Dienstes und die GPS-Funktion des iPhone 3G.</p>
<p>Was aber wesentlich spannender war: die großartigen Strategien, mit denen Apple Marktführer wird. </p>
<p>Wenn ich Manager von RIM wäre, würde ich jetzt nagelkauend unter meinem Schreibtisch hocken. </p>
<p>Die iPhone-Businessfunktionen zielen auf die Gruppe der Backberry-Träger, und das iPhone ist way cooler als diese 90er-Jahre-Kisten. Und das sind die Apple-Jungs richtig angegangen: Behaupten, man hätte die Fortune 500 Firmen gefragt, was sie bräuchten um das iPhone zu nutzen und dies dann angeblich alles umzusetzen ist ein genialer PR-Zug. Der Werbetrailer mit en begeisterten Firmenbossen ist zwar öde, aber zukünftig wird immer darauf verwiesen werden: &#8220;Wie, ihr könnt das iPhone nicht in eurem Unternehmen einsetzen? Disney kann das, die US Army auch. Warum ihr nicht?  Sicherheitsbedenken? Nun, die Creme der Sicherheitsfirmen hat keine Bedenken und nutzt das iPhone auch.&#8221; &#8211; Großartig, so muss man das angehen.</p>
<p>Gleichzeitig wird der Consumer-Bereich aufgerollt. Selbst wenn wieder mal Dollar eins zu eins in Euro umgerechnet werden: durch das neue Preismodell in Kombination mit den neuen Subventionierungsmöglichkeiten wird das eine neue Schlacht gegen die ganzen Nokia und Samsung Mittelkasse/Multimedia-Spielzeuge werden. Nicht nur Fanboys werden dem rosa Elefanten die Bude zurückhaltend einrennen.</p>
<p>Der &#8220;mobile Me&#8221;-Dienst ist zwar weniger spektakulär, trotzdem sind die Wortwahl von Phil Schiller sowie das Logo ein klares Zeichen, wem hier das Wasser abgegraben werden soll. &#8220;It´s like an Exchange Server, but for anyone. There are some of us not working in companies, but boy, we wish we had Exchange functionality&#8221;.<br />
Aha. Microsofts Exchange Server ist nicht für den Endkundenbereich gedacht, die Push-Server von RIM auch nicht. Und Apple gibt sowas jetzt für alle frei.<br />
Ebenfalls nett: da fabulieren Microsofts Ingenieure seit einem Dreivierteljahr über die mysteriöse &#8220;Cloud&#8221;, die zukünftig alles mit allem vernetzen soll und zeigt Prototypen kruder Anwendungen, die so in 5 Jahren unser Leben verändern sollen &#8211; und Apple besetzt diesen Begriff. Schiller redete permanent von der &#8220;Cloud&#8221;, wenn er mobile me meinte. Das das Logo eine Wolke ist kann dann auch kein Zufall mehr sein.</p>
<p>Daneben gab es dann wie üblich noch die handwerklich perfekte Keynote sowie viele kleine Seitenhiebe auf Konkurrenten. Und ein netter Werbespot mit der Botschaft: endlich ist der vielherbeigeredete iPhone-Killer da. Es ist das iPhone 3G. </p>
<p>Woah. Die Zukunft trägt ein Apple-Logo.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p align="justify"><strong>Steve Jobs ha anunciado en la keynote del evento WWDC 2008 que se celebra en el Moscone Center de San Francisco, el lanzamiento de la segunda generación del teléfono inteligente y la versión 2.0 del software que le acompaña.</strong></p>
<p align="justify">El 11 de julio el iPhone 2 será comercializado en 12 países que se extenderán en el futuro a 25. En colores blanco y negro con capacidad de almacenamiento de 8 y 16 Gbytes por 199 y 299 dólares respectivamente.</p>
<p align="justify">Conectividad 3G, GPS y batería capaz de mostrar sin recargar 7 horas de vídeo y hasta 24 horas de audio (300 horas en reposo) son algunas de las características anunciadas.</p>
<p align="justify">“<strong>Hemos usado todo lo que hemos aprendido y más, este es su aspecto, súper delgado. Parte trasera de plástico, botones de metal, la misma pantalla, cámara, mejor audio, aún más cómodo en la mano</strong>”, dijo Jobs del nuevo modelo, asegurando que es un <strong>35% más rápido que el Nokia N95</strong>.</p>
<p align="center"><img src="http://www.theinquirer.es/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/blanco_negro.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="332" /></p>
<p align="justify">Otro de los anuncios destacados ha sido el lanzamiento de la aplicación MobileMe, una especie de Exchange: Push email, contactos, calendarios, PC (funciona con Outlook) e iPhone, para disponer de una agenda actualizada al momento. Funciona con correo electrónico, contactos y calendario, en el Mac funciona con Mail, iCal y Agenda. Todo se actualiza automáticamente tanto en el iPhone como en la PC de escritorio o en los dispositivos compatibles con Mobileme, por ejemplo, una PC con Outlook.</p>
<p align="justify">En cuanto a la versión final del software 2.0 estará disponible a principios de julio y será gratuita para los usuarios del iPhone. Entre los terceros desarrolladores que han presentado aplicaciones para el iPhone, se encuentra eBay o Associated Press, herramientas de blogging, de redes sociales, de medicina o juegos.</p>
<p align="center"><img src="http://www.theinquirer.es/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/iphone3g1.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="333" /></p>
<p align="justify">El iPhone 2 y el resto de presentaciones no han conseguido sin embargo, animar al mercado de acciones, donde el valor de Apple ha llegado a caer más de un 5% en el índice tecnológico NASDAQ.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Che si trattasse di un annuncio previsto lo si intuiva dai numerosi rumors che negli ultimi mesi avevano invaso la Rete e la sensazione, quasi certezza, che questa edizione della <a href="http://developer.apple.com/wwdc/" target="_blank">WWDC</a> sarebbe passata alla storia per la &#8220;reinvenzione&#8221; dell&#8217;iPhone era palpabile nell&#8217;aria dell&#8217;affollato salone del Moscone Center. Apple non ha disatteso le aspettative dei numerosissimi partecipanti alla WWDC, l&#8217;annuale conferenza dedicata agli sviluppatori, invogliati in questa occasione forse più dal nuovo agognato iPhone che dalle novità software, che hanno accolto l&#8217;arrivo di <a href="http://events.apple.com.edgesuite.net/0806wdt546x/event/index.html" target="_blank">Jobs sul palco</a> con un applauso insolitamente lungo e fragoroso quasi a voler gridare &#8220;Steve, facci sognare!&#8221;. E così è stato.<br />
<!--more--><br />
<img style="width:190px;height:212px;float:right;" src="http://images.apple.com/it/iphone/features/images/main_overview20080609.jpg" alt="" /> Ancor prima di addentrarci nella disamina delle nuove caratteristiche sottolineiamo subito un aspetto che forse più degli altri impatterà positivamente sulla diffusione del nuovo iPhone: il prezzo, adesso inverosimilmente basso, ovunque mai superiore, a detta di Jobs, ai 199 dollari per la versione da 8 GB (resta da capire come questo si declinerà nel nostro Paese). Altro aspetto importante la copertura a breve di circa 70 paesi e una data per il nostro Paese non troppo lontana: l&#8217;11 luglio , con Tim e Vodafone. Quali siano i piani tariffari non è stato comunicato ma si conosceranno molto presto i dettagli.</p>
<p>Sul fronte novità il nuovo modello, dal design accattivante con linee più arrotondate, spessore lievemente ridotto e retro in plastica nei colori bianco o nero, integra la veloce tecnologia HSDPA e l&#8217; A-GPS, evoluzione del noto sistema satellitare, per il quale non è da escludere la prossima implementazione di un software prodotto ad hoc. Alcune critiche verranno probabilmente mosse dai detrattori dell&#8217;iPhone per l&#8217;assenza della camera frontale, indispensabile per le videochiamate, ma certamente non fondamentale: iPhone ha una vocazione più smartphone-oriented e anche molti concorrenti blasonati ne sono privi, così come i due megapixel della fotocamera integrata costituiscono una pecca minore in un dispositivo che non è nato per sostituirsi a una vera fotocamera digitale.</p>
<p>Equipaggia il nuovo iPhone 3G il firmware 2.0 che, oltre a migliorare stabilità e performance, aggiunge nuove funzioni quali il pieno supporto a iWork e al pacchetto MS Office, un sistema di ricerca dei contatti, la possibilità di salvare un&#8217;immagine ricevuta via e-mail, il parental control, il supporto a più lingue con sistema di riconoscimento della grafia manuale, una nuova calcolatrice scientifica.</p>
<p>iPhone 2.0 strizza anche l&#8217;occhio al mondo dell&#8217;enterprise grazie al supporto a Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync per e-mail, contatti e calendari push, servizi di rete con autenticazione WPA2 Enterprise e 802.1X e a svariati standard web, quali SSL e VPN IPSec Cisco. Probabilmente ulteriori caratteristiche attendono solo di essere verificate e solo una prova diretta ci consentirà un&#8217;analisi approfondita del nuovo sistema installabile anche sui &#8220;vecchi&#8221; iPhone EDGE dai primi di luglio.</p>
<p>La WWDC, quest&#8217;anno indubbiamente iPhone-centrica, è andata ben oltre la presentazione del nuovo modello 3G, peraltro avvenuta a fine keynote. Dopo un&#8217;iniziale disamina delle peculiarità dell&#8217;SDK, il kit di sviluppo per applicazioni per iPhone, in gran parte già illustrate all&#8217;evento dello scorso marzo, sono state mostrate demo di alcuni software tra cui giochi che poco hanno da invidiare sul piano grafico al famoso Nintendo DS e risultano arricchiti dall&#8217;originale sistema di comando che sfrutta l&#8217;accelerometro dell&#8217;iPhone: Super Monkey Ball della Sega, Enigmo e Cro-Mag Rally della Pangea Software, Band (simulatore di strumenti musicali con possibilità di registrazione), l&#8217;adventure Krull.</p>
<p>Non sono mancate applicazioni più seriose come un programma per la gestione delle offerte su eBay, il famoso portale per le aste online, due software medicali, uno dei quali utile per lo studio dell&#8217;anatomia, l&#8217;applicazione TypePad per aggiornare al volo il proprio blog con l&#8217;invio di post e foto, il software Loopt che mostra su una cartina la posizione dei propri amici e un innovativo programma sviluppato dall&#8217;Associated Press che determina il luogo in cui ci si trova e mostra le notizie locali, consentendo anche l&#8217;invio delle proprie news e la loro condivisione con amici.</p>
<p>Tutte le applicazioni verranno veicolate dall&#8217;AppStore, il negozio virtuale di software per iPhone, e potranno essere gratuite o a pagamento (come nel caso dei giochi a un prezzo di norma fissato a 9.99 dollari). Il download sarà possibile attraverso il carrier telefonico se la dimensione non superiore i 10 mega, altrimenti via Wi-Fi.</p>
<p>Un limite voluto delle applicazioni di terze parti consiste nella chiusura delle stesse se in background, al fine di non appesantire il sistema inficiandone prestazioni e stabilità e non ridurre la durata della batteria. Apple ha escogitato una brillante soluzione che consente, ad applicazione chiusa, di ricevere ugualmente una notifica dalla stessa, mediante il servizio push notification, che sarà reso disponibile agli sviluppatori da settembre: Apple manterrà una connessione continua con l&#8217;iPhone e il server di terze parti potrà avvantaggiarsene per veicolare una qualsivoglia notifica testuale o sonora. Un campo di applicazione ideale di tale tecnologia è ad esempio rappresentato dai servizi di messaggistica.</p>
<p>Altra chicca prevista della WWDC il rinnovo del servizio .Mac, ora rinominato <a href="http://www.apple.com/it/mobileme/" target="_blank">MobileMe</a>, definito da Jobs &#8220;l&#8217;Exchange per il resto di noi&#8221;. Alla pari del servizio Microsoft per le imprese, adesso anche l&#8217;utente comune potrà avvantaggiarsi della comoda tecnologia push per e-mail, rubrica indirizzi e iCal. MobileMe permette inoltre una sincronizzazione immediata di contatti, e-mail, foto, calendari, tra Mac, iPhone e PC ed è compatibile anche con Outlook su Windows. Sarà disponibile a partire da luglio al prezzo di 79 euro per l&#8217;abbonamento annuale e gli abbonati attuali a .Mac verranno gratuitamente upgradati al nuovo servizio.</p>
<p>Un accenno marginale è stato riservato alla futura release di Mac OS X, nome in codice Snow Leopard, che sarà rilasciata nel 2009. Pochi i dettagli emersi: il supporto a una nuova tecnologia, Grand Central, per un&#8217;ottimizzazione nell&#8217;uso dei processori multicore e l&#8217;OpenCL (Open Computing Language), che permette a qualsiasi applicazione di sfruttare la potenza di calcolo delle GPU della scheda grafica.</p>
<p>Con l&#8217;avveniristico spot dal look iper-tecnologico alla Mission Impossible, cala il sipario sul keynote di Jobs e si comincia a sognare&#8230; lo spettacolo è appena cominciato!</p>

<description><![CDATA[There are a lot of things to talk about from WWDC 2008, so i&#8217;m going to talk about it in 3 par]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/kk155/jkool13/Blogger%20Images/7831-iPhone3GUK.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>There are a lot of things to talk about from WWDC 2008, so i&#8217;m going to talk about it in 3 parts. The first part is the iPhone 3G. Lets go!</p>
<p><strong>The Good</strong></p>
<p>The iPhone 3G has a bundle of new features and fixes from the old iPhone 1.0. The first is obiously that it uses 3G technology instead of the old EDGE. According to Steve Jobs, it loads in just a little more time than it takes for WiFi (about a 2 to 3 second difference). Other than that, another major change is that Maps now features GPS. I&#8217;m not sure exactly how this all works on the inside, but I do know that it can get you directions to where you want to go. Some other small changes are that the sound on the speakers is better, the headphone jack is flush with the device and the overall device is thinner. The 16GB now comes in Black and White. Oh, and one more thing, forget forking over $400 dollars for one of these because the new iPhone 8GB is just $200.</p>
<p><strong>The Bad</strong></p>
<p>The only bad thing that I have heard about so far is that you can no longer activate the phone yourself. Actually, the iPhone is no longer avalible for online purchase either. You actually have to go to an Apple or AT&#38;T store and buy one. Soon after you are forced to activate the thing IN STORE only. Bad move Apple and AT&#38;T, I&#8217;m not sure many people will like this. There is one more bad thing that I have heard about both the iPhone and the iPod Touch. The iPod Touch 8GB is twice more moeny than the iPhone 8GB. However, before you think about buying the iPhone and just not activating it, you have to remember that you MNUST activate it in the store right after your purchase. Apple, it actually seems like your trying to rip people off with this one!</p>
<p>Overall, the iPhone is the greatest phone out there. Unfortunatly, I can&#8217;t get one because they&#8217;re AT&#38;T only. Now, an iPod Touch, I would totally get one of those, but I think I&#8217;ll wait for a price drop. Afterall, your currently paying twice as much for less features.</p>
