Woz BeatBoxing On The iPhone

June 14, 2009 :: Posted by - SoSly :: Category - News

As you guys may know, Steve Wozniak is the man who created the first Apple Computers back in the 1970s and also helped found Apple inc. Woz is a very cool laid back guy, hes not like any of those other snobby rich people. I remember when the some jailbreaks for the iPhone came out, Woz was interviewed and instead of being against it he was all for it. Woz even said that his phone was jailbroken because he wanted to be able to record video. Anyhow i just wanted to mention him because he is someone I look up to, mad props to Woz for being chill and straight forward. Check out Woz being Woz trying to beat box haha :)

iPhone 2010 to go Multi-Core ARM Next Gen?

June 14, 2009 :: Posted by - SoSly :: Category - News

CNET has an interesting post up detailing what we can expect in the next generation ARM processor. Just yesterday we took a look at the iPhone 3G’s ARM 11 vs. the new iPhone 3G S’ Cortex ARM8 and the difference was impressive — most impressive. Well, next year is promising a dual-core ARM Cortex A9…!

Icebike sent this in, wondering out loud: “Is it too soon to start speculating on 2010?” And the simple answer is “no, no it’s not!” It’s longstanding practice here at TiPb to wait a polite 1.372 seconds after a new iPhone model is introduced, and then begin with “So, next year–”

That spirit in mind, TiPb can’t help but wonder what this, combined with multi-core PowerVR GPU’s, wrapped up into custom system-on-chips by Papermaster, the PA Semi team, and all those new GPU gurus toiling away in Steve’s basement, means for a 2010 iPhone? (No, I won’t call it an iPhone HD — yet!)
