the world of Apple now let's get to the show and we start off with the success of google maps that racked up over 10 million downloads for the free app in just 48 hours after the app was released now some of you have decided to stick with apples Maps because it does work well depending on where you live but here's a really sweet tip for you if you want to use google maps with Siri without jailbreaking your phone now if you're looking for specific directions to a location make the Siri prompt appear and ask something like find directions to in and out burger via transit by saying via transit will be able to select the location you want then you'll see a list of your transit apps up here and Google Maps is one of the options just press route and it will take you directly into the Google Maps app or any transit app of your choice that you have installed and voila there you go see you guys I know it's an extra step but it makes using google maps easier without having to jailbreak your phone and trust me you'll impress your friends with this thanks Brian you're the best thanks I know now according to The Wall Street Journal the big a is said to be in talks with Foursquare the social check in application and is looking to add the company's data to its Maps application neq even use the app to check in to a Lakers Knicks game but unfortunately he also showed us that he's pretty bad at taking pictures with his iphone now the hope is to give users more detailed information and tips about locations from users to compete the recent release of google maps apple also just released an over-the-air update for iOS 6.0 point2 it's only for iphone 5 and ipad mini users and addresses a Wi-Fi bug issue now also sticking with iOS the Cupertino kids have also released the fourth beta seed of iOS 6.1 to developers updates will be minimal but up to this point we plan on scene and improved apple passbook some tweaks to Safari reworked music controls on the lock screen and ticket purchases through fandango in serie all right guys let's take a look at what Apple is thinking about in the future and here's an interesting one that Apple might include in I devices that involves their cameras having a combination of a pre-installed database and new recognition software that will be able to recognize famous objects like iconic paintings or famous landmarks like the spectacular Golden Gate Bridge or even better famous people like honey boo boo now it obviously wouldn't be a killer feature but a bonus that could propel you into a career as a paparazzi see look at that job it's a dream come true and guys the US Patent and Trademark Office has awarded Apple a patent for the design of the first generation iphone that was released in 2007 and created in part by Steve Jobs and Johnny I've it was a design that truly changed the smartphone industry moving forward with its two tone back mostly made of aluminum and its finger driven touchscreen all right guys let's take a quick break to show you a pretty cool accessory from Logitech that's worth checking out hi I'm rich brown fur cnet today we're going to take a look at the logitech bluetooth illuminated keyboard k810 so as its name implies this is a wireless keyboard that connects to your various devices via bluetooth it has some unique features to it it's also pretty expensive so one of its biggest selling points is a series of buttons here at the top and the function row you'll see they're labeled 1 2 3 and what they do is they actually swap between devices you've already paired to the keyboard them as you can take the keyboard use it with a computer but then grab a tablet grab the keyboard go get some coffee somewhere and just hit the button to swap over the pairing and then you can just type away so you can pair the keyboard with up to 3 devices and it works with and iOS OS 10 windows 7 windows 8 I even connected with the ps3 all of which had no problems now it is actually a Windows specific keyword and then it has a windows button down here but it will work with those other devices no problem along with those other buttons on the top there's also a honky that gets you back to the home screen on whatever tablet or smartphone you might be using that said it does what it does very well and it looks great doing it so I'm rich brown this is the logitech bluetooth illuminated keyboard k810 thanks rich and did he say luxury because you know I'm all about the bling bling on to the quick bites and in some quick apple vs samsung news Apple has lost their bid for a ban on 26 Samsung devices in the u.s. they were still pushing for it but US District Judge Lucy Coe said in a statement samsung may have cut into apple's customer base somewhat but there's no suggestion that samsung will wipe out apple's customer base or force Apple out of the business of making smartphones and we can all agree on that point for sure and earlier in the week Apple announced they have sold over 2 million units of the iphone 5 in China just three days after its launch for their best first weekend sales in china and also our good friend Raul Madera wrote in with this so I was strolling through Dillard's the other day and I found this I wasn't aware you guys were making speakers now that's awesome Raul you found us out now did you also see my line of men's padded underwear apple
