Apple Will Unveil iPhone OS 4.0 In Three Days!

April 05, 2010 :: Posted by - SoSly :: Category - News

Apple is sending out invites “for a sneak peek of the next generation of iPhone OS software” on April 8 at 10AM Pacific.

It’s been rumored that the new OS will support Expose-like multi-tasking…

Those familiar with the design of iPhone 4.0 said that the user interface will resemble Apple’s desktop Expose feature, in that a key combination — reportedly hitting the Home button twice — will trigger an expose-like interface that brings up a series of icons representing the currently running apps, allowing users to quickly select the one they want to switch to directly. When a selection is made, the iPhone OS zooms out of the Expose task manager and transitions to that app.

Facebook Gains iTunes Gift Card Feature

December 10, 2009 :: Posted by - SoSly :: Category - News

The 350 million users of popular social networking site Facebook now have another application they can benefit from — the ability to purchase iTunes gift cards for other Facebook users.

This timely functionality, reports The Loop, will let Facebook fans use the familiar interface to purchase and send iTunes gift cards in US$5, $10, $15, $25, and $50 denominations. The interface allows users to select a date on which the gift card will be delivered, meaning that you could theoretically do all of your birthday shopping for the next few years in one Facebook session, and then let Facebook do all the hard work of remembering birthdays and hoildays.

There are six different card designs available at this time, including two holiday cards, two birthday cards, and two generic “any occasion” cards. As with other Facebook apps, you must approve the app and let it have access to your profile information. Unfortunately for international Facebook users, the app is only valid for the U.S. iTunes store at this time.
