Engadget notes that this mysterious A4 (16 GB Flash) device won’t be able to serve up 1080p or 1080i video, but it may receive its own entry in the App Store for suitable television applications.

Fotopedia Heritage Delivers The Photographer’s Encyclopedia For Humanity
If you’ve never heard of Fotopedia, they’ve launched with the mission statement of building an encyclopedia for humanity where content is expressed through delicious photographs from all around the world. If you’ve ever browsed through photos via the iPad’s Guardian Eyewitness app or USA Today’s Day in Pictures, think of Fotopedia Heritage having a similar purpose, but with the intent of providing detailed, wiki/encyclopedia-like information along with a wealth of geo and historical data. It’s really remarkable.

Apple has just released iOS 4.0.2 for iPhone and iPod Touch and 3.2.2 for iPad. Do these new firmwares fix the PDF issue used by JailbreakMe? Does the iPhone 3G come with better performances? What about proximity sensor issues on iPhone 4?

OmniFocus for iPad Reinvented My GTD Workflow
To me, GTD apps used to be worse than Twitter clients on the iPhone before Tweetie: ephemeral.
Yes, even worse than financial apps: I didn’t know how to choose one and keep rolling with it. You know - that new kid on the block could be better and has a beautiful UI. You know the drill. I was a GTD user who couldn’t manage to find an actual GTD to get going with. To better understand the situation, it’s important to specify the workflow I used to have, and the one I have now. Before the iPad came out, I organized all my tasks and projects on my Mac (whether in a desktop app or online service) and didn’t really care about achieving a cloud-based workflow. I had an iPhone (a 3GS, to be exact) but I just didn’t see it as a device to carry my GTD database around. I tried Things, iCal to-dos, Basecamp, Backpack - all sorts of productivity apps / project management tools out there. None of them survived.
The Incident
When Matt Comi and friends Neven Mrgan and Cabel Sasser set out to create a one of a kind experience on the iPhone and iPad, they not only succeeded in delivering something that met everyone’s expectations: they knocked it out of the park.

The iPhone, iPad Controlled Massage Chair You Want to Have
I’m sure Steve Jobs has upgraded his squeaky office chair for the Human AcuTouch 9500 by now. Not only does it automatically adjust to all those tender spots on your delicate body, it remembers how you like to lounge and transitions any susceptible being into a state of orgasmic relaxation. I’m not kidding when I say this is the most advanced lawn chair/massage ornament in existence.
The iPad TV - Relive the 80s Era of Fuzzy CRT
The iPad has found its way onto refrigerators, toying with Legos, reviving an iMac G4, plastered onto walls with velcro, and now into the set of your favorite 1980’s television.
iPad Camera Kit vs. Chinese Knock-Off
Normally we’d have a good laugh over some crazy Chinese knock-off that poorly imitates Apple’s genius, but we’ll admit it: China wins.
