iPHONE 4- TV AD - APP CHANGES EVERYTHING

Because Google’s Android is starting to eat up their apps market, and there’s the new contender WebOS that’s about to try and gobble some tiny bits of Apple’s smartphone and tablet market, and let’s not forget Microsoft, Apple’s biggest rival that started way back in those old days. Therefore, Apple is gearing up some ads to brainwash you and tell you what you’re missing out when you don’t have an iPhone. Basically, they’re just saying to you, that because you’re missing out lots of other iCraps because you don’t own a magical iCrap.



IN iOS 4.3 APPLE WEB APPS DOESN'T SPEED UP

"Apple is aware of the issues, which are currently filed as bugs. But according to Matt Asay, who is vice president of business development for mobile Web framework maker Strobe, Apple supposedly has no plans to fix them. Instead, they are marked "not to be fixed by exec order," suggesting that a higher up at Apple is preventing engineers from fixing the problems. Asay characterized that scenario as "slimy" and "malicious," believing it is designed to make Web-based apps appear to perform poorer. That might persuade developers to create native apps that must be distributed via the App Store, where Apple has full control over what is approved or rejected."
Apple gave Safari a JavaScript boost in iOS 4.3 to make pages load faster, however in-app browsers or web apps seemed to have missed that ‘training session’. Ars Technica has confirmed that pages or web apps loaded using those methods aren’t getting the optimization that Safari gets in iOS 4.3, which is found to be 2.5 times faster than Safari in iOS 4.2. However, do remember that they’re still running the same speed as when they’re in iOS 4.2, so you shouldn’t be feeling a big difference compared to when you’re still on iOS 4.2, besides feeling that all of a sudden Safari seemed faster in page load. Not surprisingly, that has prompted some to speculate that it’s all part of a grand plan on Apple’s part to force developers to use full-fledged apps instead of mobile apps, but Ars Technica points out that it could just as easily be due to some technical problems.
