iPad case refresh a possibility
Posted in: Today's Chili
So while the world is abuzz with the very real possibility of the iPad mini being announced and introduced to the world later this month, here we are with the possibility of what could be a refresh of the iPad case, where it will purportedly feature the new Lightning port as well as a chance of better hardware specifications, although at the end of the day, everything else might just be cosmetic changes, and that’s that. Of course, this is but a rumor as at press time, and should be treated with a grain of salt just like any other rumor, at least until the official Apple event has gone by before we can deny or substantiate anything.
What do you think, will Apple introduce an iPad case refresh, or will they top that up with better specifications to boot, or will the iPad remain just as it is, where a hardware and cosmetic refresh is on the cards only next year? After all, the iPad does not really need any improvements at this point in time to catch up with anyone, considering how they are the market leader where tablets are concerned.

Google will be holding an event this coming October 29th, and it does seem as though the Internet search giant has plenty in store for the masses then. So far, what we have heard on the street include the latest version of its Android operating system, which has been dubbed as Android 4.2 without any dessert suffix to go along with it, although there are sources that claim Key Lime Pie will be given the pass this time around, with Android 4.2+ being the preferred moniker. Heck, Google might even still stick to Jelly Bean for all we know.
There are reasonable rumors (if there was ever such a thing, of course) to believe that LG’s Nexus 4 smartphone will come in a 16GB flavor, considering how 8GB on a high end smartphone these days is rather unbecoming, as it certainly does not befit the status of a flagship device. After all, we need all the storage space possible since the HD display would be put to best use if you were to watch high quality encoded movies on it, right? That would definitely be one of the main draws, and a reasonably reliable source of industry leaks shared over Twitter some of the LG Nexus 4’s specifications, 
So your mom has been on your back about spending too much time on the Xbox 360 or PS3 in the basement compared to socializing in order to look for a girlfriend? Tell her that you are busy trying to gain employment in the MI6, Britain’s intelligence agency. It seems that they and other British intelligence agencies are hoping to make full use of the Xbox generation’s talents under their apprentice cyberspies program.
Many years ago, when it came to making backup of your computer data and hard disks came in sizes of 4MB (while costing hundreds of dollars), a far cheaper way for organizations to ensure their digital data remains preserved would be to used cassette tape recorders. These might be slow and clunky, but they had two main advantages – they’re far cheaper compared to hard disks, and had a whole lot more storage space. IBM and Fujifilm has taken a second look at data storage cassettes and decided to develop working prototypes, and such data storage cassettes are said to be able to hold up to 35TB of data each, and are up to 200 times more efficient compared to standard hard drives.
Just last week, we did question the authenticity of the Sony Nexus X, wondering whether it could be a 
A company is only as good as the kind of promises that it keeps, and Microsoft knows it. This is why when they did vow for their very own Touch Mouse to receive Windows 8 support, and not only down the road but in time for the operating system’s release date, there must have been at least some pressure in the software and driver department at Redmond, Washington, to cough something up in due time. Having said that, the 
Don’t you just hate it when the ordinary lines of cables and wires at the back of your computing setup tend to get all tangled up in a mess, never mind that when you first placed them together, they were in their very own lines without crossing over to one another? I guess when dusk falls and the lights are turned off, these cables start performing the horizontal tango. Well, here is an idea that might just kiss goodbye to a tangled up mess – the Kickstarter project known as Unlace.
