Apple Announces iPhone 4S First Weekend Sales of Four Million
Mon, Oct 17 @ 6:04 AM
If you still think the iPhone 4S is underwhelming, you may actually be alone in that opinion. Apple has just announced that the new handset racked up more than four million handsets sold in the first weekend -- and they're just getting started.Apple issued a press release on Monday announcing that first weekend sales of the new iPhone 4S have topped four million units, only three days after its launch on October 14. Though they don't specifically mention it, that number most certainly includes the initial one million handsets preordered in the first 24 hours on October 7 as well."iPhone 4S is off to a great start with more than four million sold in its first weekend -- the most ever for a phone and more than double the iPhone 4 launch during its first three days," said Philip Schiller, Apple's senior vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing. "iPhone 4S is a hit with customers around the world, and together with iOS 5 and iCloud, is the best iPhone ever."But that's not all -- Apple also announced that more than 25 million customers are now using iOS 5 in the first five days since its release, and more than 20 million have already signed up for Cupertino's new iCloud service.Not bad for an initial launch that only includes the U.S., Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Japan and the U.K., and the device is only going to pick up more momentum on October 28 when the iPhone 4S lands in 22 more countries: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Mexico, Netherlands, Norway, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland.Apple will continue the iPhone 4S rollout to more than 70 countries by the end of the year, its fastest to date.Follow this article's author, J.R.

5 Tips for Using the New Camera Features in iOS 5
Mon, Oct 17 @ 12:33 PM
There's no doubt that the iPhone is the best camera that's always on you. And with iOS 5, Apple has included many new Camera features that would make even professional photographers a little more excited to use their mobile phones to capture the moment. Read on for a look at how you can get the most from the new Camera features in iOS 5.1. Quick AccessYou can now access the built-in Camera application right from your Lock Screen. With your device powered off, simply double-tap on the Home button. You will notice a camera icon to the right-hand side of the unlock slider. Tap on this icon to launch the Camera app without even having to unlock your device. 2. GridlinesIf you have ever taken a photo and it was crooked, then you will like the new Gridlines feature. This feature places a 3x3 grid overlay on the Camera, allowing you to better line up shots before taking the photo. To get the gridlines on the screen, tap the Options button at the top of the screen, and slide ON the Grid feature. 3. Volume Up Shutter ButtonWhen taking photos, you may find it difficult to tap the on-screen shutter button. Luckily, Apple now allows you to snap a photo with the Volume Up button used as a Shutter button. Now whenever you're in the built-in Camera application, you can snap a picture using a hardware button.4. AE/AF LockNow you can use the Auto Exposure setting from a particular angle in the photo by simply tapping once and holding on the screen until AE/AF Lock appears at the bottom, or you see a flashing blue square. To return to dynamic Auto Exposure/Auto Focus, tap once anywhere on the screen.5. Pinch-to-ZoomWhen composing your photo, you can get just the portion you want by zooming in using the Pinch-to-Zoom Gesture. Of course, you can still use the zoom slider by using the pinch-to-zoom gesture once on the screen to bring it up.Follow this article's author, Cory Bohon on Twitter.

Monday Recap: Instapaper Hits 4.0, iPhone 4S Reservation Only, Steve Jobs Tributes
Mon, Oct 17 @ 2:16 PM
Those of us who ponied up for a new iPhone 4S in the last week -- which according to Apple, is more than four million! -- finally got to spend our first weekend with it and now get back to our normal routine as the start of the work week is here again. But so far, the week is looking up and there's plenty to report for this fine Monday, October 17, 2011.Steve Jobs Tribute Made From 4,001 Post-it NotesThere have been plenty of tributes to the late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, but few as impressive as the one found in the Munich, Germany Apple Store. According to MacRumors and iOS News, the image you see above was created using 4,001 Post-it notes of the yellow, blue and green variety. Talk about a low-tech way to commemorate the life of a high-tech dude, but impressive nonetheless...Sunday Steve Jobs Memorial Attended by Celebrities, CEOsSpeaking of Steve Jobs, AppleInsider is reporting that a private memorial was held for the former CEO on Sunday at Stanford Memorial Church. According to Apple 2.0, the guest list included the likes of former U.S. President Bill Clinton, Google co-founder Larry Page and Adobe co-founders John Warnock and Chuck Geschke in addition to Apple board member (and former vice president) Al Gore, Tim "Buzz Lightyear" Allen and U2 frontman Bono. The event follows a small private service for his family and friends prior to his burial.Instapaper Gets Huge 4.0 UpdateIf there's one app we'd be just fine with on a desert island, it's got to be Instapaper, Marco Arment's always amazing solution for bookmarking web pages, stripping out the crud (and ads!) and making them super-readable on iOS. The developer today released Instapaper 4.0, a massive update which includes a slick new UI for the iPad edition and plenty of nice features all across the board for this universal app. The $4.99 app is free for existing users and requires iOS 4.2 or later.Refurbished First-Gen iPads Return to Apple Online Store9to5Mac is reporting that Apple is once again offering refurbished first-generation iPad models, but they're marked as a "Special Limited Time Price" so we're not expecting them to last too long at these prices. How much, you ask? How about $399 for a 64GB Wi-Fi model or 32GB Wi-Fi + 3G model or $499 for a 64GB Wi-Fi + 3G model?Adobe Reader Lands in App StoreWith PDF documents so common these days, it's almost hard to remember that they were once exclusive to their creator: Adobe. While any number of third-party iOS developers already offer PDF document readers for Apple mobile devices, the company who started it all today launched a free universal Adobe Reader app, which allows you to view (even encrypted documents, with the correct password), search, print and share PDF files. Hey, the price is right, so why not give it a try?iPhone 4S Now Available By Reservation OnlyLast but not least, if you haven't picked up an iPhone 4S yet but plan to soon, your window of opportunity may have already closed. Apple's website continues to show one to two week shipment dates for all models, and now the company appears to be restricting retail purchases to customers who reserve theirs online after 9pm for pickup the next day. Hey, you can't say you weren't warned after Apple sold more than a million of these suckers in the first 24 hours of preorders...Follow this article's author, J.R.

How to Use Your iPhone 4/4S Overseas
Mon, Oct 17 @ 2:38 PM
If you think iPhone plans are expensive in the United States, try traveling across an ocean with one. We've all heard the horror stories: multi-thousand-dollar bills for forgetting to turn off the you-will-accrue-substantial-charges-if-this-is-turned-on slider, but what do you do if you actually need to use the Web overseas? We're here to help.AT&TFor those of us already tied to a long-term contract with AT&T, options are fairly limited. The easiest and most cost-effective way for regular long-distance travelers to get instant access to the web and email wherever they are (within a reasonable 100-country radius) is by adding one of four international data packages, which start at $24.99 for 50MB of data. Much like text messaging, global add-ons can be changed or deleted at any time, but be aware of your usage -- extra kilobytes are pricey, costing $10 for each 10MB. Calls are a little trickier and vary widely between countries, but AT&T World Traveler ($5.99 a month) will keep the costs somewhat manageable.Verizon/SprintSince the iPhone 4S is a dual-band phone, global Verizon and Sprint users are no longer stymied by the less-prevalent CDMA network. According to reports, both carriers will unlock iPhones for customers "in good standing," which simply means they've paid their bill for 60 days. Once unlocked, you have several options direct from the carrier, including Verizon's Global Data plan, which starts at $30/month for 50MB (Sprint doesn't have a bundled plan, but they'll be kind enough to notify you when your roaming charges top $50 and disable it completely when it hits quadruple figures). Talking's a little more palatable: Sprint's Worldwide Voice add-on offers discounted global rates for an additional $4.99 per month, and International Long Distance Value Plan is a buck less than that. Of course, once the SIM slots are unlocked, you're no longer tied to the carrier's options...UnlockedWhen Apple began selling unlocked iPhones stateside this summer, a collective cheer emerged among all contract holdouts, but there were a few caveats. For one, prices aren't for the faint of heart -- $649 for the 16GB iPhone 4S, $749 for the 32GB version and $849 for 64 gigs -- for another, it requires a micro-SIM card. Still-independent T-Mobile -- which missed out on the iPhone jackpot again this year -- has been known to brag about the number of iPhones roaming around its network. For rabid communicators, the provider offers a handy $10-a-month with all-you-can-make calls to landlines in over 50 countries, texting in 200-plus countries, and discounted calls in over 150 countries (i.e., calls to Bangladesh will cost $0.34 per minute to landlines and $0.42 to mobile phones instead of the usual $2.99 rate). International internet service is a bit pricier at $15 per megabyte.Of course, if you want to bypass the major carriers altogether (or have an unlocked Sprint or Verizon slot), you can pick up a prepaid Micro SIM card from OneSimCard and save a bundle on per-megabyte overuse charges. Cards cost $44.95 (you'll get a European phone number), with packages of airtime starting at $10. Rates vary by country--in the United Kingdom, for example, $25 will get you 25MB of Internet use (in 10kb chunks), about 60 sent text messages or around an hour of outgoing talk time (incoming calls and texts are free)--but consistently clock in under the major carriers.Bottom LineBefore hopping onto a plane with any one of these options, you'll want to figure out how you'll be using your iPhone. Of course, if you're already under contract, you probably don't want to drop a bundle of dough on a second unlocked iPhone--but for the most part, AT&T's and Verizon's global add-ons -- not to mention Sprint's vigilance -- will keep your monthly bill affordable.
