Along with the iPad Mini , Apple has also  introduced the new 4th
Generation iPad (iPad 4). Apple had launched the previous iPad (iPad 3rd)
just 7 months ago in March , and in a surprising move Apple has updated the
iPad already. In terms of hardware the new iPad looks almost identical to
the iPad 3 but packs the all new Apple A6X chip which is two times faster
than the previous A5X chip.  The 30-pin connector has been replaced with
the new Lightning connector. Apple is also stating improved WiFi
performance and additional support for more LTE networks in the latest iPad.
Interestingly the iPad 4 still uses a microSIM card for cellular data while
the iPad mini uses a nano SIM card like the iPhone5. In terms of specs the
iPad 4th gen weighs and measure the same as the iPad 3rd gen.

May earlier this year and it is barely 6 months old and it already feeling

At an event in USA today , Apple unveiled a lot of new products and one of
the most interesting products announced was the iPad mini which packs a
smaller 7.9 inch display. It is almost half as heavy as the iPad 3 and is
20% thinner.Yet Apple claims 10 hours of battery life on this tiny little
tablet. As you can see in the picture above , the iPad mini is being held
in one hand. It is as thin as a pencil and as heavy as a pad of paper
according to Apple. The iPad mini follows the same design language as the
iPhone 5 with a  glass and metal design. In terms of specs the iPad mini
packs  dual-core A5 processor, 7.9 inch display with 1024x768px
resolution ,  front and rear cameras. As expected the lightning connector
is used for charging and syncing.
Here is the Black and Slate version same colours as the iPhone 5 .
And here is the White and Silver. Pretty tough to pick one of these
colours. They seem equally attractive.
The iPad mini will be available in both WiFi  and WiFi+Cellular

New version of Google Wallet coming soon


http://www.fonearena.com/blog/56625/new-version-of-google-wallet-coming-soon.html




It has been a long time since Google launched Google Wallet, but we haven't
seen any major updates to lately. Today, Google went live with a teaser to
show that a new version of Google Wallet will be coming and have also set
up an invite page where all the people interested in trying the update can
request an invite.
As soon as you get into the Google Wallet page, you will be asked to chose
from multiple devices like Android, iOS and other. This means that Google
Wallet will soon be coming to other devices like Blackberry and Symbain.
They have not given any information about when it will be ready and what
the changes might be, they will be sending an invite mail once the service
is ready. I hope with this new update Google Wallet also comes to different
countries and also supports a whole new catalog of cards.
