It just works



Apple unveiled the new version Iphone 4S on Oct. 4. Most of the people are saying that the new phone is just an incremental upgrade. Yes, it is so. However, everybody is missing something. Apple announced something else with the new Iphone which the company called as the new personal assistant application -Siri.

This is what the companies co-founder and former CEO Steve Jobs wanted all along. He always want to design the Apple products "easy to use" for a consumer by using innovative artificial intelligence. In his point of view, consumers shouldn`t struggle with the interfaces.They don`t want to browse the folders, programs, start menus and task managers in a device. They just want to use it without any confusion.

I think, Apple believes that users are no longer need to "see" the user interface. The user interface in peoples` mind will likely to disappear, as it should with Siri.

It seems that Siri will be a new way for Apple to say; it just works.

Shopping Refurbished


When most people think of refurbished products, the general perception is that the items in question are used goods that have been reworked and restored to an acceptable working order. While that definition is one example of refurbished products, the concept actually covers a number of other scenarios as well.
Goods that have been returned by customers also qualify as refurbished goods. In this instance, the refurbished product likely has nothing wrong with it at all. The item may have been returned for any number of reasons, including the fact that the customer simply changed his or her mind about the purchase. In cases where the returned item has obviously not been used, the store will usually simply reseal the packaging and sell the item at a discount as arefurbished good.
In cases where some shipping damage is involved, the manufacturer may choose to repair the item and then sell it as a repaired or refurbished product. Because the item is factory refurbished, the level of quality is often the same as a product that is sold as new. The advantage to the consumer is the ability to obtain the item at a lower cost.

Apple announcement event on Oct. 4




Apple has finally announced a press conference for Tuesday 4 October, where the company will almost certainly unveil the iPhone 5. The invitation hints that it will be one phone that is announced, which is likely to be the iPhone 5 rather than the much-discussed iPhone 4S.

The phrase 'let's talk iPhone' has also immediately been linked to a rumour that Assistant will be a key feature of the next generation phone.

The world has been waiting for Apple to confirm the date, which has been widely rumoured and mooted, and the invites, in the US at least, have finally gone out.

The iPhone 5 will not only bring iOS 5 but almost certainly the integration of the A5 processor, bringing a more powerful experience. Also, there are rumors about the 8MP Camera and 4" screen size. Lets wait and see on Tuesday 4 October.
