2012-08-02
that's not that great oh that's a good look at the composition of that thing and I'm hi Brian special delivery what's up JJ today oh my gosh will check check this out wait wait on we go look in this section TV on the web apple pie baby oh by the spot that's great no no it's so great I'm gonna replace my Justin Bieber out of that photo with this thing yeah whatever we gotta go to the morning meeting let's go come on meeting come on again what's happened i'm brian Tong and welcome to the apple pie for everything the good the bad all of it inside the world of Apple right here now we finally have a rumored date for apple's next iphone to debut on sep tember the 12th that's a wednesday with the release of the phone to follow nine days later on Friday September the 21st according to I'm or no other tech outlets have also confirmed September 12 as the date for an apple announcement but there hasn't been an official confirmation by the big a just yet I'm or also reports that the ipad mini yes that guy will be announced at the same event along with the new rumored ipod nano and ipod touch with September historically being the time for apples music player announcements now I lounge chimes in with some details about the iphone and the new dock connector that some people are still obsessed about they say it will not be a 19 or 16 pin connector but eight pins that will potentially have the ability to connect the docks and cables in either orientation like a magsafe so we'll see about that but we asked you the Apple biters to tell us what you thought now Anthony says iphone 5 yes regardless of number of pins patty says the new design alone is enough for me to not get the iphone 5 putting the jack on the bottom doesn't make sense now it's about half and half of people who prefer it on top I prefer it on the bottom the headphone jack that is kevin says they should wait for a better phone and that's blackberry 10 no now I lounge also reports there will be an iOS 6 and bluetooth for link that they speculate will allow an ipod nano to receive messages or emails on its screen for people who are still wearing it as a watch that i promise to no longer make fun of it would be taking the concept of the kickstarter pebble watch or sony smartwatch and bringing it to the apple ecosystem also with the announcement potentially getting closer new video footage and still images from Japanese repair shop I lab factory shows a fully assembled device of what the front and the back side of the new iPhone might look like now we know Apple CEO Tim Cook talked about doubling down on secrecy a few months ago but these images are so detailed and believable I'm starting to believe this is it or could Apple really have sleek tout the iphone 5 get it I said fo set a phone alright let's check out our app of the week this one's a no-brainer it's the amazon instant video app for the ipad now amazon prime members who pay seventy nine dollars a year really get the benefit of having access to a boatload of shows and movies but if you're not a member you can still purchase content to watch on the app now a few things you guys should know there is no search function in the app to find anything you want you have to scroll through the icons there is no search also thanks to apple's awesome rules if you want to purchase any content and view it here you have to go to amazon's website first to make the transaction and then it will appear in your library but you can't do it within the app in you can thank Apple for that and at the moment airplay only works for audio and not full screen video yes it's still the app of the week because how can you complain about 120,000 videos and shows now being available for free but it's not perfect just like people so check out the amazon instant video app alright there's also an ongoing trial between Apple and Samsung that's expect to the last several weeks where Apple is trying to convince a jury that one of its biggest rivals Samsung copy their designs and technology to get where they are today now Samsung's arguing apple's ipad and iphone would have been impossible to develop without their technology remember Samsung makes components that are inside of Apple's products making this the best pair of frenemies we've seen since Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie now the best part of this fight is that we have now been given access to the thinking and designs inside of Apple with prototype renderings and images that are being made public for this case now look at some of these is some pretty cool stuff and some of the design cues have even been implemented into the rumored prototype that we've seen already now Apple vs samsung is constantly evolving it's a long ways to go so we'll keep you in the loop with major things that happen each week alright let's check out some quick bites Apple TV fans will be happy to get a new edition with hulu plus I've never paid for Hulu Plus but I know you cord-cutters do so you can check that out and macbook pro retina display owners get a little love since the Thunderbolt a firewire adapter is available at the apple store and also in completely unrelated news did you hear Snoop Dogg you know the rapper Snoop Dogg is officially changing his name to snoop lion after he said in an interview i feel i have always been a Rastafari I just didn't have my third eye open
