iOS 4 features: Sync multiple IMAP accounts with Notes

With iOS 4, the built-in Notes app gets the ability to sync with multiple IMAP accounts, including MobileMe and Gmail. When you set up MobileMe or Gmail (not via Google Sync/ActiveSync/Exchange but via the Gmail button) there’s a toggle to turn notes sync on or off.

If you enable notes sync for multiple accounts, you get a new Accounts button at the top left of the Notes app. Tapping it takes you to a new screen where you can choose to view All Notes, just the notes on your iPhone, or just the notes that are synced via IMAP to your email account(s).

Those notes then appear in your desktop and web-based IMAP clients as well, like Apple’s Mac Mail.app (in Marker Felt, ugh!) and Gmail.com.

If you’re using multiple IMAP Notes accounts, let us know how it’s working for you. For more features, see our complete iOS 4 walkthrough.

Apple releases iOS 4.1 beta 2 for developers

Once again keeping to the every-2-weeks cycle, Apple has released iOS 4.1 beta 2 for developers. If you’ve got an account, head on over to developer.apple.com and update your SDK and firmware.

We’re guessing Apple plans on doing what they’ve done in year’s past — keep releasing betas until they hold a fall Special Music Event and show off the final version along with a new iPod touch G4.

If anyone notices anything new in beta 2, we’ll update!

Belkin Max Sleeve for iPad – accessory review

YouTube Link

The Belkin Max Sleeve for iPad not only does a great job of protecting your iPad, but it gives you a little extra room to stick some of your accessories in as well. The case is made of a fabric material that is pleated on the front. This is what allows you to have a zipper compartment in the front to stick your other gadgets in.

The inside of the case is a foamy white mesh material. It’s extremely soft so you don’t have to worry about it scratching your iPad. It’s also a loose fit, which means you won’t damage your iPad while taking it out and putting it back in the case. There’s always a down side to a case not fitting snugly though, and that’s if you forget to zip it and pick up the case by the wrong end, it’s very likely your iPad could go crashing to the floor. We didn’t have this happen with this case, but I could see that being a problem as the material on the inside doesn’t offer any grip.

The way we cast that fear aside was to put a silicon case on the iPad and then put it in the Belkin Max Sleeve. The silicon provides the grip and solves the issue. I know a lot of people wouldn’t want to buy 2 cases so it isn’t an ideal situation. My advice? It’s a great case worth the money, just be careful how you pick it up, or make sure you always zip it up.

Other than the sliding out of the case issue, this is a great case and well worth the money. It offers superior protection in an unobtrusive form factor. Even though it’s small, it still lets you stow away other objects, which is nice. If there’s any girls out there like me that hate carrying around a laptop/iPad bag and a purse, this is awesome. Simply throw your phone, credit cards, etc in the front pouch and you’re good to go.  You can purchase the Belkin Max Sleeve for iPad from the TiPb Accessory Store.

Pros

Allows for extra storage room in the front pocket

Material on the outside is easy to grip on to

Material on inside won’t scratch your iPad

Cons

Inside material is a little slick so forgetting to zip up could cause an iPad to fall out

Zipper on front pocket is sometimes a bit hard to pull

White iPhone 4 delays caused by light leak?

The Street is claiming that the reason Apple has delayed the white iPhone 4 until “later this year” is due to light leaking around the edges of the glass. This according to the ever popular “person familiar with”, in this case the manufacturing process.

As the source described it, if it were a metal or plastic material, a simple coating would fill in the gaps and block the internal light. Glass is an entirely different issue.

Take this with a white iPhone 4-sized grain of salt, of course.

Scoble death-grips Android Captivate before Apple

We’re guessing Apple will get an AT&T Captivate (or similar Samsung Galaxy S-class device) death-grip video up sooner or later, but in the meantime… Scoble to the rescue!

He shows both devices in the same area on the same network dropping bars and, he says, calls. We get it. Manufacturers aren’t perfect. Phones aren’t perfect. How many more videos will we get before this meme dies like bars beneath watery flesh?

And no, it’s not an outsource, just yet another video making its hits off the antennagate saga where no phone, on no carrier is safe. Now before anyone cries “yeah, but iPhone 4 only needs a death-touch, not a death-grip!“, we’ve already seen other videos showing the Galaxy getting killed by a single finger as well.

Of course, iPhone 4 is iPhone 4 in every market and on every carrier, so if anyone has a problem it’s very easy to find out about everyone else who has that problem. With other devices, if someone has a problem with a Captivate will that get tracked to someone else with a problem on a Vibrant on T-Mobile, or a Galaxy in Europe?

No doubt Consumer Reports is on top of that.

Android Captivate and Vibrant get reviewed — the competition

AT&T and T-Mobile bring the Android competition with the Samsung Galaxy S-class Captivate and Vibrant

Phil Nickinson, my counterpart over at sibling site Android Central has just posted his AT&T Android Captivate review and T-Mobile Android Vibrant review, the latest, greatest US GSM competition to our own iPhone 4. They’re both Galaxy S-class devices, but one of the strengths of Android is the ability for manufacturers like Samsung and carriers like AT&T and T-Mobile (and Verizon and Sprint when their versions launch) to modify and customize the hardware and software to make their devices distinct.

Ally already posted her thoughts on the AT&T Captivate vs. iPhone 4, so if you’re trying to decide between the two, or between them and the T-Mobile Vibrant, give Phil’s a read to and then come back here and let us know what you think.

Blue ray 3D disks are highly in demand as it describes the high definition video quality. It is also very popularly known as Blue-ray in the theater and gaming world. This CD's are high defined CD's that is used to view high definition videos, animated movies, 3D effect videos, PlayStation games and many more. In short, blue ray disks are called as standard DVD format that helps in viewing the movies in a realistic way just like the theater effect. The reason behind naming this disc is its simple as it is made up from the blue violet laser to read the disc.

Watch 3D movies at Home:

Watching 3D movies at home can bring the same pleasure and excitement like the theaters with the blue ray disks and DVD's. As it is designed from the special blue violet rays to read the disk, the quality you get while viewing the movie on your home theater screen will be just superior and fantastic. It is 100% original and hence, buying it doesn't harm the rules of movie and its valuable standards. In fact, animated movies are especially getting released on the said format to make it more fun and over going and continuous.

3D movies since 1950s:

The upcoming Disney movies are going to rock in theaters in few days and it will be released in blue ray and DVD for storing the movie for a life time. From the 1950s, the animated and high defined movies are getting released but it is surprising to know that the 3D movies has got all these animated and high defined in its store for making your memories strong. You can watch all the missed animated in high defined color movies on your home theater screen using these type of movies. Today, all these movies are released on this mode of format for making your fun double.

How to watch these movies at home?

The recent good news have explored in the corners of world that blue ray 3D movies have been released all over. But the fact is that it uses anaglyph technology to make the movie realistic in your television screen. While you are buying blue ray DVD's, you will get 4 sets of cardboard framed anaglyph glasses to watch these movies. With the help of these glasses, you can view all the special effects of the movie like the theater and believe me there is no change in the feel of effects once you wear these 3D glasses. So, you can enjoy the complete entertainment movie by wearing 3D glasses and make your day animated!

The only reason behind wearing these glasses is the theater has different imaging technology while your television screen cannot support it completely. For the same, it helps the viewers with the sets of glasses to enjoy the real imaging technology of the movie. Blue ray is soon going to become the future of home theaters.

Google remote kills 2 Android apps from user phones

Google has remotely wiped two apps from Android users’ phones, which is something Apple has always had the ability to do with iOS, but has so far never done.

For all the crazy stories about App Store rejections, and the well-deserved criticism Apple faces for some of them, to their credit they’ve never reached out and yanked an app off a users’ phone. Amazon famously deleted Orwell books from Kindle libraries, and now Google has killed Android apps, and maybe one day Apple will find a reason to do likewise (malware comes to mind) but today, they’re the ones who haven’t.

Irony aside, Google’s been very open about the reasons for going all “power word kill” on the apps:

Recently, we became aware of two free applications built by a security researcher for research purposes. These applications intentionally misrepresented their purpose in order to encourage user downloads, but they were not designed to be used maliciously, and did not have permission to access private data — or system resources beyond permission.INTERNET. As the applications were practically useless, most users uninstalled the applications shortly after downloading them.

After the researcher voluntarily removed these applications from Android Market, we decided to exercise our remote application removal feature on the remaining installed copies to complete the cleanup.

The remote application removal feature is one of many security controls Android possesses to help protect users from malicious applications. In case of an emergency, a dangerous application could be removed from active circulation in a rapid and scalable manner to prevent further exposure to users. While we hope to not have to use it, we know that we have the capability to take swift action on behalf of users’ safety when needed.

Again, Apple may decide they have to do likewise one day, so it’s an important reminder to anyone with a managed app or content store — iPhone, Android, Kindle, maybe Palm someday as well.

Does this concern you, or do you trust platform providers to only use the big red ban button when it’s to protect you? Or do you think users should have the choice — a big scary prompt button saying “malicious app detected – delete now/cancel at own risk”?

The Ledge keeps your desk tiny

Having a desk when you have no extra room in your home is not an easy task.  Thankfully laptops allow you to work on things at your kitchen table instead of being forced to stay at one desk.  However, if you do prefer to have a designated desk area, this simple ledge actually turns into a handy little desk.  It may not look like much, but it keeps a sliding shelf hidden inside.

When it’s not in use your laptop and everything can slip inside on the small laptop shelf.  Then when you need it, it easily pops open again.  On the product page there is actually a video that allows for you to see the desk in action.  In addition to keeping your office area controlled, it’ll help to manage any cables that you might use on the ledge.  Unfortunately, it’s going to cost you a bit of cash to get your hands on this.  Right now it’s priced at $1,500 through Urbancase, but hey, at least that includes shipping.

Astro A30 Metal Gear Solid Headset

There are very few headsets out there that won’t make you look like a total dork.  Sure, you might be seriously creaming the competition in a game, but you’re still going to look like a bit of a dweeb with that headset firmly on your head.  Thankfully, there are the occasional headsets created that actually look pretty cool.  This Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker is one that might just help you look a little tougher while you’re wearing it.

As far as the sound goes, it’s probably pretty decent.  However, headsets and headphones are just one of those things no matter what the statistics state, it’s just better to test them out for yourself.  Hopefully you can get a buddy to buy them first and then you can find out the verdict on them.  These were just recently released in the US and can be picked up for $149.  Of course they’ll also give you $20 voucher to purchase the game, which is nice.

WWDC 2010 live meta-blog

WWDC 2010’s keynote kicks off at 10am PT/1pm ET/6pm BST. There probably won’t be any live video streams — Apple doesn’t do them and they typically shut down anyone they catch trying to do it. So, we invite you to sit back, relax, and join us for coverage, color, and commentary.

NOTE: Apple keynotes typically bring down the internet. We’ve got two widgets after the break because both have failed in the past. If one fails this time, we’ll switch to the other. You shouldn’t have to refresh the page.
