This may partly caught the attention of passersby, but can also create a litigation of trademark disputes from both Google and Apple. Apple currently has only one authorized retailers in Zhuhai and completely unrelated to Android. And perhaps the store's employees will not confused that I work for Google, although this situation has occurred at the Apple Store for the previous clones.
 
If Android Store model did not become true, then with the Windows Phone officially launched in China, the interesting story revolves around the pro shop will continue.

However, many things have happened since then. 4G LTE is not only appear on the iPad, both Verizon and AT & T's U.S. network is rapidly expanding high-speed connection. According to the Wall Street Journal, the 4G download speeds combined with powerful processors on the new iPad smoother experience for users. Apple may be quickly resolved obstacles to put the antenna on the iPhone 4G next generation of his.

Two. Chip A5X

A6 four-core chip is rumored to have not appeared. Apple may have introduced a new processor for iPad iPhone next generation through three. While no direct impact to applications which depend on the Internet, A5X chip also brings higher performance graphics.

3. Aluminum

With the design is well received by iPad, perhaps aluminum would make significant difference for the next iPhone model.

4. Better screen

Retina new iPad screen the same size with iPad 2 but the number of pixels 4 times. Although users still expect the new iPhone may have a larger screen at 3.5 inch screen, sharper picture quality that can screen Retina brings is important.

7. Leave the selling price

Apple is smart to move to a new iPad with iPad 2 price. If set higher than its predecessor, the first round of sales may not be as expected. By keeping prices equal, Apple ensured the future success of the product as well as preserving processes multiply their profits.

8. The price of the iPhone 4S

Apple has iPhone from Cisco hands like?

Apple has used these tactics to gain what brand iOS iPhone and its capital is owned by Cisco computers?
Recently, in his book "Inside Apple" (roughly translated "Inside Apple"), author Adam Lashinsky revealed that CEO Steve Jobs of Apple was "grab" from the hands Cisco iPhone trademark.
CultofMac magazine, not just computer giant Cisco iPhone trademark Apple for years, but they also own brands iOS. So Apple may be two brands that how?
The story is told in his book Lashinsky as follows:
One day, Steve Jobs personally called Charles Giancarlo, Cisco's executives at the time. Mr. Giancarlo said: "Steve Jobs called me and said that he wanted the iPhone trademark. Steve Jobs did not suggest anything to change it. As if what we get is promises will be good friends. I answered "no, we have plans to use it (ie the trademark" iPhone ")."
 
Not long after, the law office of calling Apple announced that Cisco has "de-brand iPhone," which is the point of Apple, Cisco is not sufficient grounds to protect intellectual property rights, called "iPhone" and Apple has the right to use.
 
Mr. Giancarlo said a day after Apple introduced iPhone, Cisco filed a lawsuit.
Then the negotiation process between the two sides have shown a classic negotiating tactic by Steve Jobs. According to the Giancarlo, Steve Jobs has called to his home to dinner on Valentine's as an appointment.
After some talk, Steve Jobs said, "He can receive mail at home?". This question makes surprise Giancarlo. It was in 2007, when broadband Internet was popular throughout the normal household in the U.S., let alone a family of Silicon Valley leaders, who have many years of work in the technology progress. Giancarlo recalled: "He asked if I could check email at home. You know, he's trying to irritate me the most polite way. " Cisco has abandoned litigation shortly afterwards, and the two companies come to an agreement is ambiguous will work in both areas of mutual interest.
 
According to the book "Inside Apple" trademark use rights iOS also undergoing negotiations before belonged to Apple, and of course, Steve Jobs has adopted the "tactics" to achieve its own goal of his.

Why am I "glued" to the iPhone?

If you say that because I am a Mac user should be given iPhone is part of the "system", is only partially true.
 
Quite a lot of Mac users have chosen Macs (iMac, Mac Pro, Mac Book Pro, Mac Book Air, etc.) as tools to work but the phone is not on the list of "work", the phone is a phone, so people still cavalier (and innocent) that select Nokia N9 or Samsung Galaxy.
 
If you say that because my iPod's music to love, and love spread to the call-phone-iPod is, you are only partially true. Fruits of love, I have the iPod generation born since it was right ten years ago, but my iPhone is not collected. iPhone not the iPod, or at least, it does not make sense "history" as well as techniques such as an iPod.

So why?

A little recollection: I own an iPhone unlock aluminum generation I in 2007, died in the night awake. Back then, the hardware unlock intervention; I do to get out of the iPhone hit rock chart and became the phone, but do take a bit of shell scrapes and of course, exhausted after weeks of white night. What's left out of power, something boiling sweat tears, the long memory. So I remember the life of his first iPhone, the 8 GB silver casing.
 
Then soon the 3G (I initially processing the plastic looks fragile), 3G (at first nothing more than my 3G mode), 4, and 4S. In the years from 2007 to now, I use a lot more phone products of other companies, other operating systems (mostly Android, and Symbian) but never the telephone is still an iPhone.

I have yet to explain why ...

Here's why: iPhone enough for me. No, not the "added value", not promotional things that people never take into account as the user does not know on what. iPhone - in addition to phone features - is a working tool, for my career.
 
With the iPhone, I do it all. I'll let you see the folder containing the application:
Utilities: Reminders, ToDo, Dropbox, Office Plus, TouchPad. TouchPad is a great utility for remote PC control. I use it when lazy touchpad controls on the laptop, I can sit relatively far from the screen while web browsing, music, computers ordered.
 
Social: Facebook, Google +, Myspace, Skype, Twitter, Tumblr, Chat, Vimeo. Meet all the social networking tool and you can do everything from blogging to upload photos, video through this app.
Music: this one a bit special, I used to tuning Cleartune, GigBaby, MusicTrack and MusicStudio to music directly on the iPhone. The files are processed the web server can take up to then take it from another computer. Many demo recordings, some songs I wrote with iPhone thanks to the above application.
Entertainment: I'm not entertained by games but by the hand-drawn. I have four favorite applications: Brushes, Inkiness, LiveSketch and Quill.
 
Photography: I separated this room to say more. the previous generation iPhone is nothing to be proud of taking pictures. Right from the iPhone 4 onwards, the new situation clear. Since the iPhone 4, photographers can also "iphoneography" - photography by iPhone. I am a huge fan of this branch, and more and more fans, more passionate. iPhone 4S moves beyond much better camera, higher resolution, contrast and depth capability focus faster. I used 6x6 applications (emulators square format TLR cameras), Camera +, CameraBag, Hipstamatic, Instagram, Lenslight, Pinhole HD for taking photos. Besides, light meter Light Meter is a reliable tool not lost any shot meter that left professionally. This point is worth emphasizing because I did test the metering program written for Android, hardly been used which, by the light sensor of the device was malfunctioning.
iPhone is much more brilliant after the operating system platform iOS 5 and iCloud cloud. The synchronization takes place automatically, very fast, stable and reliable. Application updates directly on your phone, no computer dependent. Synchronous (or "live") between iOS with Android / Google also supports more burdensome past. Faith love when was encouraged by the positive utility improvements, then the more love, this easy to understand.
