Quotidien iPhone Apple

A Apple revelou nesta segunda-feira a nova versão de seu celular iPhone para a terceira geração de telefonia móvel, o que garante recursos de acesso rápido à Internet.

O presidente-executivo da empresa, Steve Jobs, exibiu o novo e aguardado aparelho durante a conferência da Apple para desenvolvedores. O novo modelo chega quase um ano depois do início das vendas do iPhone original.

A Apple vendeu 6 milhões de iPhones, afirmou Jobs, e analistas afirmam que os negócios com o aparelho podem eventualmente se equiparar ao tamanho das atividades da empresa com os computadores Macintosh ou com o player de mídia digital iPod.

Segundo a Apple, o aparelho começa a ser vendido no dia 11 de julho em 22 países ao preço de 199 dólares — preço para o modelo com 8 GB de memória — o equivalente a um terço do preço inicial da versão anterior.

O MELHOR VEM AGORA!

BRASIL, EM BREVE!!!!

Quotidien Radiohead

Radiohead's back catalog became available for sale via Apple's iTunes Music Store this morning (June 3) in DRM-free files, removing the band from the ever-dwindling list of major holdouts from the digital download service.

The band previously had a handful of songs on iTunes that were included on various soundtracks or compilations, and earlier this year, Radiohead's new album, "In Rainbows," was made available there.

But only today have the band's first six studio albums, and a brand new "Best Of" release, gone live. Radiohead had been holding out because of its desire for fans to buy the albums in complete form, rather than as individual tracks.

Technically, iTunes always had the option of selling Radiohead's back catalog, but only as full albums. Apple has to date refused to conduct album-only sales.

Radiohead's decision to change its digital sales policy looks to have been a smart one from a financial standpoint. "In Rainbows" has sold 106,000 of its 526,000 U.S. copies digitally, according to Nielsen SoundScan. Individual tracks from the album have sold 178,000 copies.

Last September, U.K. retailer 7digital scored a coup when it added Radiohead album downloads to its service, but not individual tracks. The Beatles, Garth Brooks and AC/DC are now the last superstar acts without a presence on iTunes.

Quotidien (RED) Thing

What RED Is

(RED) was created by Bono and Bobby Shriver, Chairman of DATA to raise awareness and money for The Global Fund by teaming up with the world's most iconic brands to produce (PRODUCT)RED branded products. A percentage of each (PRODUCT)RED product sold is given to The Global Fund. The money helps women and children affected by HIV/AIDS in Africa. What's the meaning of the parentheses or brackets? Well, we call them "the embrace." Each company that becomes (RED) places its logo in this embrace and is then elevated to the power of red. Thus the name -- (PRODUCT)RED. You, the consumer, can take your purchase to the power of (RED) simply by upgrading your choice. Thus the proposition: (YOU)RED. Be embraced, take your own fine self to the power of (RED). What better way to become a good-looking samaritan?!
