iPad 3 To Launch in March, Sport Quad-Core CPU and Retina Display?
Bloomberg revealed a few details about Apple’s upcoming iPad 3 tablet. According to the publication’s sources, the manufacturing partners of Apple in Asia have already started production this month and will reach full volume in February. The iPad 3 will be seeing a March release said the report.
Kinect Star Wars
You go around waving your limbs while dancing virtually to a Justine Bieber or Nicki Minaj song = Embarassing
Doing the same thing while whacking the hell out of a Sith Lord = Pretty Damn Cool!
This is the experience we will have when we get to play Kinect Star Wars ($50, Dec. 2012). This motion-controlled adventure lets you live the life of a Jedi. Now, this is a perfect excuse reason to buy myself an Xbox 360 when this goes out!

Steve Jobs Action Figure
I’ve always wanted to collect action figures of my favorite comics and cartoon characters, from Superman to Darth Vader. Though my friends and I would laugh about how these action heroes would wear their underwear outside their tights, we’re still stupidly addicted.
Enter toy companies In Icons and Dragon in Dream. On New Year’s Day, they unveiled a 12″ Steve Jobs action figure. The doll figure features a very realistic likeness to the late Apple visionary with matching black turtleneck, jeans and sandshoes (though underwear outside Jobs’ Levi’s 501s would have made it a bit more badass!).
iPhone Lens Dial
Just saw this at Uncrate.com. This is the downright bizarre iPhone photo add-on called the iPhone Lens Dial ($250). This photo-enhancing tool is actually an aircraft-grade aluminum case for the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S that boasts dual tripod mounts — one for portrait and one for landscape — and a “wheel attachment” on the back that spins to put a high-quality glass fisheye, wide angle, or telephoto lens atop your iPhone’s existing optic, extending your photographic options well beyond the limits of your favorite app.

Disappointed over iPhone 5′s No Show
October 4 has been one of my most anticipated dates this year. The rumor mill has it that Apple would unveil an iPhone 5 at the scheduled event. I have work the following day but I stayed up late just to follow live blogs by tech sites that have representatives covering the event. Every blog post, every picture taken at the event I followed and ardently read. And the moment came when Apple’s new CEO Tim Cook unveils the latest iPhone. I even got up of my bed to give the announcement my full attention. Then I heard the inevitable.
No iPhone 5, only iPhone 4S.
What To Expect on the Apple iPhone 5 Launch on Oct 4? [Infographic]

There is no rumor, no guesswork, Apple has started sending invites for an iPhone event at Apple’s Cupertino campus on Oct. 4.
Okay, I am getting ahead of myself a bit. The invite does not explicitly mention an iPhone 5. It just promises we’ll talk about the iPhone.
This will be Apple’s first iPhone event since June 2010, when it released the iPhone 4. iPhone 5 demand is expected to be strong, thanks to the lack of a phone release this summer and the addition of the iPhone on the Verizon network. Sprint is also expected to get the iPhone.

Google+ iPhone App Finally Released
Apple has finally approved and released the much awaited Google+ app for iOS today, much to the delight of iPhone users. Vic Gundotra, Senior Vice President for Social of Google, posted in his Google+ profile this morning that Apple would be rolling out the app. Initially, it was only available at the US and UK App Stores which frustrated most of Google+ users from other countries, including me. Luckily, I have a jailbroken iPhone and I have the Installous app installed. Some good Samaritan uploaded the app there and I was able to download it.
