Canadians try to reconcile how Google Voice is only available for some. For those who do have an account, the GV Connect app is a great asset.

Looks like Netflix has officially launched in Canada. Yesterday we got a heads up on Netflix's Canadian plans, and now their site is official with pricing. For $7.99/month, you'll get access to unlimited TV/Movies to watch. Except as of right now, the selection is very limited. We can only hope that their Canadian library will...

You might have heard the exciting news from a couple days ago regarding the release of VLC for the iPad. The Applidium team has been hard at work at getting this iPad version out and with my early tests...the app needs a desperate update. Certain HD videos were unplayable on my iPad (it said my...

When Apple launched their 'new' Apple TV at their iPod Event, the revised price tag caught my eye. At $119 CDN ($99US), that price point fits into the "impulse buy" category. Do I need Apple TV? I don't know yet, although for AirPlay, I just might. But for the same price as a pair of...

Back in June, reports showed that Google’s Android surpassed Apple’s iOS platform to become the third most popular smartphone OS in the world.

The iPhone Dev-Team has done it again. If you're still holding on to an iPhone 3G or 2nd generation iPod Touch running 4.1, your jailbreak tools for Mac are here. It's fairly straight forward as usual with redsn0w, get on the official 4.0 or 4.1 firmware, then use redsn0w to jailbreak. Dev-Team: "IF YOU USE...

There are people out there that like to live dangerously. How so? They use their iPhone 4 units without a bulky case or protective skin (like the invisibleSHIELD). Yes, I know. How do these people sleep at night? Joking aside, if you are one of these brave souls, you have most likely used one of...

Apple announced yesterday in a PR statement that China will be officially getting the iPhone 4 on September 25. This is amazing news for people there as they will finally get the real thing, instead of pathetic looking knock offs. Here's an excerpt of the press release: CUPERTINO, California—September 19, 2010—Apple® today announced that iPhone®...

Well let me start off by mentioning that I FINALLY got what I always wanted; my very own iPhone 4! I will name it George and hug it and pet it and squeeze it, and…  Sorry guys I guess I’ve gone a little looney tunes (click for reference) waiting to get my hand on this...

Do you make a lot of long distance calls? If you do, then you definitely should be using Skype on your iPhone. With the various Skype Subscription plans, you can make unlimited calls to landlines/cellphones for low prices. Rogers currently charges $0.35/minute for long distance Canadian calls. That can add up, but if you have...

Hey everyone, my name is Jordan. I'm the new guy around here. I love the iPhone and all things Apple, so I'm going to be sticking around for a bit to keep you guys in the loop. Let me start off by saying this is one of the best games to hit iOS devices yet....
