Did Apple Call Galaxy Nexus A Stolen, Pirated And Counterfeit Product?

Did Apple Call Galaxy Nexus A Stolen, Pirated And Counterfeit Product?

 

Apple is stooping to a whole new level. The company is evidently scared of competition in the mobile and is using every legal means to ‘kill’ Android.

The same company which stole UI from Xerox, whose founder shamelessly admitted that they had been shameless about stealing ideas from other companies is putting the Galaxy Nexus phone in the category of ‘stolen, pirated, counterfeit, or infringing products.’

 

Apple used the above wording in a response to Samsung‘s complain about the letters Apple sent out to retailers asking them to stop selling Galaxy Nexus and Galaxy Tab  10.1. I am curious if Apple sent another set of letters to the same retailers asking them to resume the sale of Galaxy Nexus as the ban has been lifted?

iPhone and iPad possible import ban after US ITC review

iPhone and iPad possible import ban after US ITC review

 

Well now it appears that there is a possibility of the tables turning on Apple, who seem to take just about anyone to court over patent infringement these days seeking a banning of rival devices in the United States by way of the US International Trade Commission, as word is the US ITC is to review a ruling back in April that discovered certain Apple gear infringed upon a Motorola patent, which could ultimately lead to an import ban on Apple gear that utilise the infringed tech.

 

 

 

According to an article over on Phone Arena by way of Apple Insider, the US ITC review of the matter is the next step along the long road that could ultimately see the ITC place an import ban on such Apple devices as the iPhone and Apple iPad.

 

The patent involved was issued to Motorola way back in 200, and is No 6,246,697 and covers a “Method and system for generating a complex pseudonoise sequence for processing a code division multiple access signal,” which apparently deals with chips that are used in WiFi applications, and Apple find themselves in this problem because Judge Thomas Pender ruled that Apple did infringe on the above patent, one of four, back in April.

Breaking Down Apple's Retina Display Unveils Surprises And Ingenuity

Breaking Down Apple's Retina Display Unveils Surprises And Ingenuity

Apple's Retina Display Breakdown

The Retina display is arguably the pièce de résistance of Apple’s new MacBook Pro with Retina Display. It’s an engineering marvel, bearing a 2880×1800 resolution, which is good for 5,184,000 pixels.

Last week, iFixit tore apart the MacBook Pro with Retina Display and found it was virtually impossible to repair or upgrade after the time of purchase. But the Retina display itself was left un-dissected – until now.

The entire display assembly is slightly thinner than the display of its predecessor, yet manages to pack in four times as many pixels. It’s only a fraction thicker than 7mm at its thickest point, and just over 3mm at its edges. 

The Retina display is also so delicate and tightly constructed that the experts over at iFixit couldn’t separate its front panel without cracking the glass in two places — and eventually obliterating it completely.

“If you want a world-class laptop screen that doesn’t take up much real estate, don’t expect to be able to pop it out and back in at will,” iFixit writes in the teardown.

Apple told us in its WWDC keynote that it used a new manufacturing method to build the display into the notebook’s unibody aluminum housing, eliminating the extra layer of cover glass normally requisite of displays. Indeed, Apple turned the entire display assembly into the LCD panel, using the aluminium casing as the frame. Normally an LCD panel is sandwiched between a front piece of glass and a back case.

Along the top of the case is the HD FaceTime camera, and the cord runs along the upper and outer edge of the casing.Inside the bottom edge of the case, iFixit made two interesting findings: a laser-engraved internal use code, and a bunch of round indentations that could be Braille, but didn’t appear to make sense in Braille.

But back to the LCD. Underneath the top layer is a series of films and polarisers that basically ensure light is spread evenly on the back panel. A sheet of white paper then acts as a uniform background for the LCD’s backlight, an arrangement of 48 LEDs at the bottom of the display.

With such tight construction, it’s not surprising to find out that if any part of the display breaks, you’ll need to replace the entire display assembly. But that’s cheaper than replacing the entire $2,200-plus (£1,400) notebook itself, at least.

Apple Has Removed References To The Messenger For Mac-Beta

Apple Has Removed References To The Messenger For Mac Beta

As noted by Cult of Mac, Apple has removed references to the Messages for Mac beta that the company released for OS X Lion in mid-February to provide a preview of the functionality coming in OS X Mountain Lion.

There’s still a Messages for Mac link at the bottom of Apple’s Downloads page — as you can see below — but again, it just redirects to the Mac OS X page, where a Messages beta cannot be found. It’s likely that Apple is now happy with how beta testing has gone, and that it has already prepared a final release that will launch alongside Mountain Lion in July.

Apple has not removed the download entirely, however, as it is still accessible via direct download (63.8 MB). It is unknown how long Apple will continue hosting the download, but text strings found within the app earlier this year suggest that the app itself will expireonce OS X Mountain Lion is released and Messages will be a Mountain Lion exclusive.Apple announced yesterday that OS X Mountain Lion will launch in July and be priced at $19.99 through the Mac App Store. Users of Snow Leopard and Lion will be able toupgrade to Mountain Lion for the same price.Users of the Messages beta for Lion have complained of a number of issues including crashes and problems with syncing across devices, failure to send, and disappearing messages. Many have been hoping for an update to address some of these issues, but it appears that Apple is focusing its Messages efforts on the final version it plans to include with OS X Mountain Lion.

Tom-Tom Confirms Mapping Deal With Apple

Tom-Tom Confirms Mapping Deal With Apple

While Apple has worked hard to build its in-house mapping expertise, the company still needs to rely on some outside partners to assist it with the massive project of developing its own mapping and turn-by-turn navigation services. A number of observers noted references to “TomTom and others” in various locations within Apple’s new Maps app for iOS 6, and now the mapping company has confirmed in a brief press release that it has indeed struck a deal with Apple.

Tom-Tom has signed a global agreement with Apple for maps and related information. No further details of the agreement will be provided.The Associated Press noted earlier today that TomTom’s stock was up 12% on the news, with it now approaching gains of 15% for the day.

Apple IS Going To Release New Tracking Tools For Its Apps

Apple Is Going To Release New Tracking Tool For Its Apps

Developers a losing a lot of money in there apps due to illegal downloads and copyrights issues so this reason Apple Inc. is planning to release a new way for mobile app developers to track who uses their software, in a conference on Apple’s plans, the company’s latest attempt to balance developers’ appetite for targeting data with consumers’ unease over how it is used.

It comes after Apple last summer rattled the mobile industry by saying it would stop allowing app makers to use a unique identifier embedded in iPhones and iPads to track users across different apps. So far, the company hasn’t aggressively enforced that policy.

Many mobile companies rely on what is called the Unique Device Identifier, or UDID, to serve ads and gather data—like location and preferences—as people move between apps. But some privacy advocates argued that the string of numbers, which are anonymous, could be coupled with enough data to identify individuals.
How Apple’s new technology works and what it will allow developers to track remains unclear. One of the people briefed said that the new anonymous identifier is likely to rely on a sequence of numbers that isn’t tied to a specific device.An Apple spokesman declined to comment.Since saying it would phase out UDIDs, the Cupertino, Calif. Company—gatekeeper to almost 600,000 mobile apps—has been mum about how it plans to do so.Meanwhile, developers and mobile ad networks have been evaluating various workarounds, worried about losing millions of dollars in revenue if they can’t target users with mobile ads. Companies also say they need a way to recognize users in order to customize content and preferences. None of the new workarounds, which include methods like tracking based on an ID in a phone’s wireless networking hardware, have taken off.“Everyone is waiting for Apple to do something,” says Lars Albright, the chief executive of mobile-marketing company Session M and a former executive in Apple’s iAd division. “There are a lot of different viewpoints in the industry. We don’t need more confusion. We need less.”When Apple plans to discuss the new tracker remains unclear. But developers could receive some clues next week at the company’s developer conference in San Francisco, when they are expected to receive an early version of Apple’s next mobileoperating system.Developers are also expecting Apple to unveil new models of its MacBook portablecomputers at the event, along with software enhancements such as Apple’s own mobile mapping service and updates to its online storage and syncing service i Cloud.

Apple To Lock Down Leaks

Apple To Lock Down Leaks

Recently Apple Lock Down The leaks From The Company  Like The Previous Leak Of iPhone , iPad etc.

Apple CEO Tim Cook Recently vowed that the company intends to firmly crack down on product information leaks ahead of the official announcements for gadgets like the iPhone, iPad, and Macbook Air. Will the new vow of secrecy put a cap on thepopularity of Mac rumor sites, or just add fuel to the fire?

Everyone remembers the epic “iPhone 4 prototype goes missing from a bar” story from 2010, in which the unreleased and totally revamped iPhone went missing after an Apple employee had one too many with his buds and lost track of the device. It turned out someone with sharp eyes and a sneaking suspicion he was onto something realized he’d struck gold in finding it, so he stole the prototype and sold the information and handset to Gizmodo for $5,000. Gizmodo gave the phone back to Apple, but not before stirring up a media firestorm. Later, it was suspected that this was no accidental leak at all, but was planned by Apple the whole time. That turned out not to be the case, and young man who had stolen the phone was sentenced to probation.

It was good publicity for Apple. Interest in the iPhone 4 ahead of its release spiked dramatically and sales were record breaking when it finally hit the market. Whether it was a planned leak or not, it wasn’t a bad thing for either Apple or its loyal and intrigued community of fans around the world who hang on every word written in advance of a new Apple product release. Even though Steve Jobs was always extremely guarded about letting information get out too early, people seemed to be pretty good at putting two and two together at the rumor sites and figuring a few things out: some information comes from shipping labelsphotographed in secret, or from inventory and supplies lists from component manufacturers overseas. The Apple rumor mill is a cottage industry with many followers. The most popular of the sites devoted to breaking Apple news early get lots of traffic, and lots of ad revenue.

Time Cook has once again solidified Apple’s long standing position on leaks by making some contradictory statements, today promising “incredible products” ahead, but refusing to offer up any details, while at the same time seemingly letting it slip that the next iPhone will not have a larger screen size. Either that is also part of the renewed Apple secrecy, or it’s the plain truth. If it does turn out that the new iPhone stays the same in terms of screen size and resolution (allegedly for the sake of developers) then a lot of longtime iPhone fans might leave the iPhone for an Android device.
