The new iPhone could come around June 21
Due to a change in plans for some users in the U.S. network AT & T along with the iPhone 3G, have raised suspicions about the launch date of its successor bets place this time around June 21.
MobileCrunch A reader reported the following: Do not know if everyone has noticed the same thing [...] but the rights of renewing my contract phone on my AT & T has just passed on 21 November June 21 recently. I bought a 3G on launch day last year, and since that date was Nov. 11. Other colleagues in my office have also seen that the dates have moved forward in their accounts. On June 21 became a date that raises concern, since the beginning of that month will be held at WWDC 2010, and certainly will be at the keynote of the annual event where Steve Jobs unveiled the new phone from Apple. Already there were rumors that its release would be almost immediate, but if we ignore him at that time in the case of the AT & T, could be that the June 21 release date was. Either that or the iPhone would be launched the day after the keynote, but the owners of a 3G upgrade will not be able to within a few weeks, as a control measure to help minimize delays in shipments. The moment , it’s certain that as of June 21 AT & T customers will enjoy a discount if you want to update your iPhone, which leads us to say that very likely already have a new model in the street for those dates. It is less. Vía | MobileCrunch Image | Myuibe

One More Thing (week of 03/05/2010)
It is less guys to sell the IPAD worldwide and get to know data on the rates that operators offer, discount options as announced Movistar if already a client of a data rate less than 25 €. But now is not the only Mac-favorite The blogosphere is still in motion and the Hispanic-speaking blogosphere would not be less.
This week, without a lot if I wanted to highlight a selection of several items for their usefulness or content seem to me great, in our One More Thing … IPADE will arouse much interest. More still? Yes, and that the size of the screen and its options are ideal for many applications and the latter is the Super Nintendo emulator. Wiimote with him and we will be able to enjoy great games like the one shown in the video that show us EsferaiPhone, Super Mario Kart on the iPhone. The world of accessories is perhaps one of the most prolific within the Apple ecosystem. On a daily basis are many iPod, Mac, iPhone or IPAD, keyboards, mice, etc … but mostly covers. One of the last I’ve found has been through Mactivistas, linking to the Grove covers for the iPhone. Made of bamboo and a laser engraved reason they look great. Too bad I guess is more delicate than their counterparts in materials such as plastic, leather or silicone. Also, not now but as soon as the new iPhone, I will be careful because, besides the designs available can order it with our own. Lost some reason would be nice, do not ?. I personally prefer Lightroom to Aperture but not recognize the virtues of Apple’s implementation. The problem is that for some managed in Aperture it is not as easy as in other applications of the same type. Therefore, despite knowing about its existence for some time, this week I’ve been checking the forums for Aperture-es. Where you can find useful information to improve the Use other systems, portable applications that are known and allow us to take us wherever we go our messaging client, browser and bookmarks, etc … In Mac OS X is also available and No without my Mac has made a compilation of the most útiles.Los disk errors are something we all wish to avoid but fortunately or unfortunately is not always achieved. For those who suffer the error disk0s2: I / O error Invalid node structure can be remedied with the help of Mac Metro One after live in their own flesh has been written to solve this problem in the future. There we again next week. Remember that you can send your links that you consider interesting mendiante our contact form. But above all continue to give movement to this world through your blogs

ShellHere adds to your Mac OS X Finder can open a Terminal from any folder
Perhaps the use of Terminal is not widespread among the majority of users through the graphical interface of Mac OS X much easier for us to perform any task with our records. However, in our Finder ShellHere add the possibility to open a Terminal from the folder in which we find ourselves at the touch of an icon and easily.
ShellHere is a very small application that can save our Applications folder. From there, drag it to the side or top of the window from any folder in Finder for us to display a button with direct access to it. Since that time, if you press is an icon (I have marked in red in the picture above where it remains in the Finder) will automatically open a Terminal with the path to the folder where you currently are. Its use is much simpler than OpenTerminalHere, which we talked for nearly four years as in the case of ShellHere do not need anything to use memory-resident (actually we add to the Finder is an alias to the application). It is completely free, and highly recommended for what we need to have access to the terminal immediately. Official Site | ShellHere

Apple is exploring the possibility of using invisible buttons in future laptops
Apple continues to advance its crusade to reduce to a minimum design (apparent) of their equipment and now advocates a new patent that would cover a number of physical controls the aluminum body making the MacBook Pro literally invisible to the user. The idea is to take a step further technology currently used in the indicator of rest, consisting of a series of small holes made with a drill laser are virtually invisible when the light is off, so that the new laptops would benefit from touch-sensitive areas where they could come and go buttons as they were needed or not.
For example, when they entered iTunes could draw a wheel like the iPod next to the laptop’s trackpad, allowing use to monitor the implementation of a more intuitive way while respecting the minimalist style of the company making it disappear when no longer useful. In addition to opening a program other conditions that could activate these controls and indicators would be the detection of motion or light sensor, greatly expanding its practical applications. In addition, this technology also be used to put buttons on the outside of the laptop or simply to indicate the level of battery or signal strength Wi-Fi even though the MacBook screen is closed, allowing the user to perform tasks without having to open laptop. The patent describes such buttons to activate an external monitor, synchronize your iPod or iPhone, install software or turn off the computer, all without opening the lid. No less interesting is the last application described in the patent: its use as a replacement for notebook trackpad, allowing cursor control by sliding your finger over the very surface of the aluminum body of the MacBook Pro and simplifying (even more) the impressive design of this equipment. Document of the patent, Apple said it considered other methods to hide these controls, such as plastic buttons colored as to simulate the metal, but the appearance and finish were not identical to that of aluminum so conflicted with their objectives. The text also emphasizes the aesthetic benefits, environmental and production casings offering created from a single piece of metal, thereby justifying their efforts to overcome the challenges that led to the patent.

Windows Live Messenger can be seen in some screenshots
Though long ago that “the Messenger” lost bellows and ceased to be the mass phenomenon that was once, even with all in many countries is still widely used, and although is not available and we have the first catch of the program. Microsoft announced the arrival of long-platform program for iPhone and iPod touch, but the accumulation of some delays and we still have not seen any pictures of the program or its finish.
The picture accompanying this entry is a montage with some screenshots of the final version of the software. Above all emphasize good design of the program, you can not deny anything in this regard: it maintains the aesthetics of adaptadola network fairly faithful to the iPhone, something not always easy to achieve. It also looks pretty good section of photographs. The program should arrive in June, is still in beta, but after all the delays can not be assured that date. Hopefully at least introduce the multitasking software to use it further. Vía | Neowin In Applesfera | MSN Messenger comes to the iPhone and iPod touch, but only to China

Chaos Rings, the new Square-Enix RPG for iPhone, iPod touch and IPAD
Chaos Rings RPG is the first made specifically for the iPhone by Square Enix and Vision Media, creators of the sagas of Final Fantasy and Wild Arms respectively. The game brings the usual Square combat system to the features of iPhone and iPod touch to introduce a sort of Dungeon Hunter will be most remembered for his graphic section for a rundown gameplay.
Still especially after expectations raised, it is not surprising that the majority of gamers that have been with him since he was put on sale last week criticized (rightly) two key issues: price, 10.49 euros, excessive craved for what eventually brings (like so many other big games in the App Store), and repetitive elements of its approach. Still, I’m sure the followers of the aforementioned Dungeon Hunter this did not cause any problems, and we must recognize that Yusuke Naora, game character designer known for his roles in such titles as Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy VII Advent Children or release pending Final Fantasy Agito XIII, has done a magnificent job that fits perfectly with a carefully crafted to funds that yes, they could be equipped with more movement. (# ) The game’s plot revolves around a tournament in which fighters must fight to survive in groups of two. Each pair, consisting of a male and female, hides his own secrets and only unravels the stories of them all come to know the truth about the Ark Arena, the place where we will face all kinds of enemies. This story, without any boasting, but is interesting enough sins of another old problem that the Spanish are more than accustomed (not resigned): the absence of our own language. Still, it seems that the game is having a pretty good reception, ranking seamlessly between the top of the main international and Stores Square to demonstrate being satisfied with the results openly they are making. So much so that the company has already confirmed through the game’s producer, Takehiro Ando, the people of Media Vision and has been to work to adapt the IPAD and Chaos Rings release a HD graphics. Is there someone who continues to doubt the capabilities of the iPhone OS as a gaming platform? I hope not, as I hope the developers, now that they have overcome the technical side, begin to focus on other things that should have been his top priority.

Lala is closing its service on May 31 to make way for a new service from Apple of course
If you do remember that Apple acquired memory Lala, a music streaming service in early December last year. That was to assume that Apple had plans for the future in terms of moving iTunes to the cloud, in a service more in tune with the times.
Now seems to begin to be signs of that change. Lala.com has just placed a message on his website announcing that no longer serve immediately after the month of May, so that from June (the month in which curiously begins WWDC 2010), Lala will cease to exist. The service has stopped offering downloads and music purchases, but allows existing users to continue using the library service they already have. Service users will also receive vouchers redeemable at the iTunes Music Store by the value of purchases they have made in Lala, so you can guess that once closed its doors Lala, Apple launched a similar service of its own with the domain itunes.com if we follow the rumors that appeared in January about this service. It would be rare, because right now that direction leads to the iTunes website. For music services in the cloud are already very numerous, Spotify seems to carry the reins of the market and offers have Grooveshark reach all your music without any notice by 30 euros per year. Apple is offering it get better? Hopefully, as Jobs said the example of multitasking in the iPhone OS 4.0, are not the first to offer this but they are the best. Vía | TechCrunch

Get to watch videos in iMovie Aperture 3
From the opening presentation in March, the cataloger (and improved) photo of Apple is capable of handling video. Latest SLR emerging market (consumer range) begin to include this feature, so it makes sense this new possibility offered by the program.
But it can occur in which the videos you import to this program, do not get to see them in iMovie for editing and this can be solved with a small step in the program. This little “bug” is often given when keep the videos on an external location, such as a USB hard disk, and these videos are only referenced internally to the program. The solution is to consolidate the originals, so it will go to the menu “File> Consolidate Masters” and the program will give us the option to copy (so that we will have the files in two places at once) or move them to the Aperture library. Once we have decided to copy or move we handle those videos from iMovie. Allowing us to mount the video that reminds us that holiday so special that should not be forgotten and teach all friends.

Siri, creator of virtual personal assistant is bought by Apple
Apple has acquired a small company that has developed a virtual personal assistant for the iPhone with the same name, Siri. The application itself consists of a consultant to help us in finding a restaurant, entertainment event or other activity of a more interactive experience than what other service can offer.
By requests that we will Siri will be talking about offering the options as he creates more suitable. Being able to interpret what we say verbally. Of course there may be problems of understanding, but every month promise to improve the user experience. The adoption of Siri by Apple shows the evolution that could follow the internet services as well as interaction with the same. And take advantage of technology developed and the experience of this company could improve not only the use of the application as an assistant in itself, but the incorporation of the technology used in the operating system itself or the players. Already in the iPod Shuffle, iPod Touch and iPhone 3G Apple introduced we have seen voice control, allowing change songs or even ask what’s playing. The adaptation of Siri give an advantage to that functionality. Imagine asking to open mail without removing the iPhone from his pocket. In the video we see the operation of the application. Of course, everything here is perfect and we should see it in use to assess it in depth. That it undoubtedly is a great idea if you want to try is available in the U.S. App Store at the moment but soon will be appearing for other stores. Just one thing, I hope to add support for other languages not too distant future because currently only available in English. ! Thanks Otto for the track!

And the opportunity to work with any server by using MacFuse. The redesign of the interface, which has exquisite taste, and different display modes (dual-mode column, CoverFlow, ..) and QuickLook integration is another of the great innovations that draw attention to just start the program. Another useful option is the multi-media. And is that generally the boys of Panic have again a great job making sure to leave most satisfied.
