The post New iPad Mini and FREE Apple software appeared first on Reviews of the latest gadgets and cars - AskSteve.co.za.
]]>What this means for you and me is that Apple’s Mac OS and iWork software suite, which compete with Microsoft’s Excel, Word and other applications, will now be offered free to all users. Amazing. And they say that it’s simply because they want their users to have their latest software and has nothing to do with fear that their stock price is dropping or that rival tablets on the market like the Kindle Fire and the Google Nexus are chomping away at it’s market share. Right. Call me a cynic, but I think that when the iPhone 5 came out with that ridiculous new charging port, forcing iFans to buy adapters for all their expensive docking stations and accessories, Apple made it quite clear that it’s users’ needs are not top priority at the company. But like I said, I’m a cynic who is looking forward to burning in cynic hell.
Either way, it’s good news.
And there’s more, they also announced a new iPad called the iPad Air which is 20% thinner than it’s predecessor, has a 9.7-inch Retina Display and an A7 chip with 64-bit architecture and M7 motion coprocessor. Looks like a lightweight (500g or so) beast.
iFans, hit the streets and start telling everyone about how you can’t wait to get your hands on the new device.

]]>It sounds a bit childish, but many of us really have become too busy to create our own playlists, so it’s nice to just let someone else do it for you (the 120 000 already created on Simfy in 2013), click play, and listen.
Let the good times roll.

]]>Each earbud has it’s own a small circuit board, button cell battery, 256mb memory chip and a 32 bit ARM processor and sound is delivered courtesy of a pair of 6mm neodymium dynamic drivers.
Now here comes the really cool bit: changing tracks is done by chomping down on your teeth and the vibration is picked up by an accelerometer. Obviously they’ll need to connect via cable to charge and transfer songs, and they do this via USB.

]]>The post Brewbot: Smart brewing pot NEW GADGET appeared first on Reviews of the latest gadgets and cars - AskSteve.co.za.
]]>You read that right: the BrewBot connects to a Smartphone via Bluetooth and allows the user to tweek, change or update their recipe from the comfort of their couch.
The device itself has temperature sensors, load sensors and other clever stuff to keep the user updated on how their batch is doing, how much longer it needs to ferment and when their brew will be ready. Makes 20-litres at a time.
Now I have a very good friend who likes to brew his own beer and I know what he’s going to say about this product: “its bullshit bru. It takes all the soul out of making beer. I’ll just do it myself, thanks”.
Granted, he is a functioning (barely) alcoholic, so what does he know. Bring on the future.
