Apparently drop tests aren't very cool anymore. I have always enjoyed watching them; they really show the potential of a particular device's screen. But rather than a simple drop test, the guys at A Perfect Galaxy have taken the scratch/crack tests to a whole new extreme level. We have two devices with market values exceeding...

If you were thinking of purchasing an EA Mobile game, there hasn't been a better time. The company is offering huge deals on their best iPhone and iPad games. This is a "back to school" promotion, so this deal could last a week or a mere few days. All we know is that you better...

A Mac commercial produced during 1983 ahead of the computer's launch in 1984 was just revealed by Andy Hertzfeld earlier today on his Google+ page. Hertzfeld was part of the original Mac team along with Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, Burrel Smith, George Crow, Bill Atkinson, and Mike Murray. Hertzfeld notes why the commercial was never...

If you own an iPhone or iPad, bets are that you've had a chance to play Angry Birds. It's one of the most popular games in the history of mobile games. To those who at this point actively enjoy the bird-slinging game, you're going to love this. A controller labeled 'Super Angry Birds' was created...

With the Apple vs Samsung court case remaining quiet most of this past week, we finally have some interesting data to share. We may not have those fun prototype shots, but we do have some sale figures. During yesterday's court pleading Samsung revealed sale figures for both companies. Unfortunately they are sale figures of what...

The month of July wrapped up just over a week ago, and Apple suppliers have posted record breaking sales for the month.

AllThingsD has the report on a group of Apple component suppliers: Preliminary...

With iOS 5.1.1 being jailbroken already, pod2g doesn't have much work on his table. If he wanted to, he may consider getting a head start on the iOS 6 jailbreak, but with the software currently unreleased, the exploits could still be patched by Apple. So what has pod2g been doing these past few months? He...
