Apple Media Event 27th = Tablet?

25 Jan

January 27th invite

On the 27th of January (American time) Apple are holding a Media event, now the exact purpose of this Media event isn’t known by anyone other than those in the inner-circle at Apple HQ, but with their invite and advertisements stating “Come See Our Latest Creation” many can only assume that it is of course the subject of much rumour and speculation, the Apple Tablet Device, said to have been in the works many years, and to have been shelved several times but with the purchase of 10″ Screens by Apple and many places “Quoting” discussions and information, many people are jumping to the conclusion that the illustrious tablet will indeed be the center piece of this media event, along with iPhone OS 4.0 and possible slight updates to the iLife suite.

While no one knows for sure that Apple is releasing a Tablet at all this year, many sources have been claimed to have said that Apple will be releasing or announcing a Tablet in the first quarter of 2010. While rumour sites are abuzz with speculation and wishlists and artist-renditions of the device. Most people are certain that there will be a Tablet because of two reasons, the last time there was this much hype about product releases. Apple squashed such rumours well and truely before the event, to prevent the let down of certain products not being released from hurting their sales of other devices. And the second reason being that a few app creators for iPhone/iPod Touch Applications have been asked to create higher resolution versions of their apps, most likely for Apple to demo on the Tablet device.

Being the junky that I am, I will likely purchase this device if it’s some great new advancement, but it will want to be more than just an over grown iphone other wise my wallet may just stay shut, and at the moment the majority of talk has it running iPhone OS. Which could be the major let down of said device. There’s no way I’m going to be able to cover all the rumours and speculation here, so if you want to see what others are saying about the possible device, check out Macrumors.com

 

Day 18 – Bakin’ Cakin’

18 Oct

Day 18

So today’s oh-so-flattering picture is of Claire! She moved into a place basically around the corner from my house and this afternoon I went to visit her, just as she decided to start making a chocolate pudding. The picture was captured on my iPhone and Edited the crap out of in iPhoto. (She tried to get me to paint her nails, which she will tell you was a bad thing todo as it became obvious I can’t stay inside the lines)

 

Day 6 – Windows

Day 6

So today I was lazy, and spent most of the day playing around on my Windows PC. Something I havent done for a while because it has a habit of crashing every 5 mintues, good old windows. So today my picture, was taken 15 minutes before the end of the day and is of my keyboard… YAY so much for great photography… Its also taken on my iPhone… YAY for quality.

Continuing the early trend of my PhotOtober project, Today I have used yet again a different camera to capture my daily snap. Todays picture was taken on my iPhone at the Punchbowl reserve by the pond. Courtney, Kyle, Caroline, Yolanda and I had been kicking the ball around and I kind of kicked it into the center of the pond. Which resulted in us searching for a big enough stick to find the ball and get it back… I think Kyle may have ripped down a tree to get the final branch… BAD KYLE.

 

Caves, Maze and Cliff

20 Sep

IMG_0119So today Caroline, Yolanda, Kyle and I went for a day trip. The trip ended up taking us for a rather interesting day, taking us to the Westbury Maze where the girls beat the boys to the centre and to the exit. My sense of direction is really bad, so never follow me into a maze! It was quite fun, apart from when I tripped over and fell into a Hedge! Actually I ran into quite a few trees on our day trip. After this we decided we would head out to Mole Creek and check out the caves.

We went on a cave tour with about 5 other people, apart from one lady showing her parents around, we were the only group of Tasmanians, it was fun. Especially the part when we first got into the cave and Caroline and I were standing against the wall when the Tour Guide decided to point out a rather ugly spider that was right behind us, following on to tell us they could grow to the size of Dinner Plates. Yeah we moved pretty fast. Only to end up standing under a Stalactite to have a person from Sydney point out a Cave Cricket right above my head, causing me and Caroline to Jump once again, with Caroline squealing and almost knocking me over.

The Cave tour was good, and when we got to the top part called the Cathedral, the tour guide asked us to sing. No one did, which was good because the only song that was in my head was the Im A Korean Parody of the Black Eyed Peas – I Gotta Feeling. SO I didn’t really want to start singing that. Although the tune was stuck in my head all the way back. On the subject of musical Tunes, I noticed Kyle randomly leading Caroline and Yolanda in song with Im A Korean, I gotta Feeling and best of all, Friends for Ever.

After the cave trip we headed back to Launceston, only to stop at the Allum Cliffs and walk once again up and down and look at more rocks. All in all it was a good day, But I am stuffed. Here are some pictures taken on my iPhone.
