Ready for the Apple iPhone 5? ‘It’s Almost Here’

It seems Apple has finally decided to name the next phone in the iPhone legacy as iPhone 5.

Apple has just issued invites for its much awaited media event which promises to reveal more about the next iPhone. The event, to be hosted at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, is scheduled to take place on Wednesday, 12th of September.

The invite is in typical Apple style, and has caused a huge amount of curiosity amongst the people. It has a tagline reading; ‘It’s almost here’ with the number 12 below. While 12 obviously stands for the date of the event (September 12), the shadow below has a shape of the number 5. This prompted us to conclude that the event is in fact to tell us about the new iPhone 5.

It seemed like competition was finally catching up with the iPhone, with some reports that the Galaxy S3 had outsold the Apple iPhone 4S on 3 out of 4 major carriers in the US. This was the first time that the iPhone was outsold since its launch, and Apple would try to regain its place with the iPhone 5.

There are also reports of the iPad mini, a smaller version of the iPad that Apple has lined up in the pipeline, but it doesn’t seem like this media event would have to do anything with that. Apple would like to reserve the iPad mini for another time, and another media event, which we believe will come in the next few months.

The competition is not resting either. Nokia and Microsoft have also recently scheduled a media event where it is believed, they will launch their new smartphones to compete with the iPhone. Amazon is also hosting an event next week to unveil two new versions of  Amazon Kindle Fire.

Skype update adds photo share in the iOS app

Skype  just released a major update to the video chat  application to version 4.1. It is now possible for the iOS app to send and receive  photos  from other users, just like in the desktop version. In addition, Skype promises that the speed of the app has gone up. Now there is a less battery consumption when the application is running  in the background, so you spend the whole day receiving messages or calls on Skype and without the battery dying. This is Skype biggest problem on the iPhone has not yet been solved.

Skype still not pushes all messages that users ingest in the application, so it is still easy to miss one another conversations. If you have completed the application there is no push messages. Got the app on in the background, it seems like  a lottery or messages may or may not come through. In our test we regularly get the first message received after we close the app, and then nothing more.
However, the application has other improvements besides more battery saving, faster at startup, etc…. This is because according to Skype contact list is loaded faster. If you have the latest update of Skype, you will get a message o go to the privacy settings of the app update is available and that the details of your contact list from now securely stored on the servers of the service. Besides the app in general, see also chats faster than before.
The other improvements  indicated for Skype version 4.1 are minimal. There is a bug related to calls via Bluetooth, there are some custom graphics and other small, ‘secondary’ error solutions implemented.
