Apple just released iTunes 10 version after the Apple fall event and is available for download from the Apple’s website.Some of the prominent things I have noticed is the new icon,and this new feature called ping.What’s this actually ? This is Apple’s new way of introducing social networking through Ping.This allows you to share with your friends what you’re currently listening to and even share information on concerts and events.Not only that you can also make recommendations and this would be used for “social music discovery”.
You’ll be able to control who follows you by setting up a “Circle of Friends” or you can allow anyone to follow you.This ping is now embedded with iTunes 10 and allows multiple forms of sharing including via the images and links.So check it out.You can download iTunes 10 from the Apple website

Engadget reports that they have been tipped off that the HD3 — HTC’s mythical successor to the wildly popular HD2 — is not only alive and kicking, but headed for a bright and sunny Windows Phone 7 future, starting as early as October 18.The only evidence they have for now is the below spreadsheet, which they are told is an internal planning doc from UK carrier O2.It’s not exactly the hardest thing in the world to forge so keep your skeptical wits about you, but as silly as this inflationary renaming to HD7 may sound, we find it strangely believable. After all, why wouldn’t the company that brought us the Incredible Wildfire of Desire jump ahead a few numbers to keep up with the hot new OS’ numbering?

Apple’s just announced iOS 4.1 boasting a number bug fixes and some pretty notable additions. The fixes include remedies for the proximity sensor issue, Bluetooth, and iPhone 3G performance, while the new features include High Dynamic Range photos, HD video uploads over WiFi, TV show rentals, and, at long last, Game Center. That latter bit is pretty much what we’ve been seeing all along, and boasts a range of new capabilities for multiplayer gaming, including the ability to challenge friends, keep track of scores, and new ways to find games — of which there will be some pretty interesting new ones that take advantage of the added capabilties. Look for the update to hit iTunes sometime next week as a free download for your iPhone or iPod touch.










In addition to this Apple will demo iOS 4.2 which will be everything iOS 4.1 is bringing, plus some extra goodies, and will finally bring iOS 4 (hello multitasking!) to the iPad. The most exciting of the new features is AirPlay, which is Apple’s redub for AirTunes, with the important addition of being able to stream music and video to your i-device over WiFi (with an iPad even acting as host for the new Apple TV). Also over WiFi is a new wireless printing feature, complete with a little Print Center applet that sits in the dock and lets you manage your print jobs. It might not be sexy, but it’s certainly a welcome addition to iOS. Apple will be launching iOS 4.2 for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch devices in November.

When the word E-reader comes, most people think about the Amazon kindle or the Nook, but if you have given the choice of selecting then you could also take a look at Sony’s range of E-readers. Sony has a nice little trio of e-readers on offer, and they’ve all just been upgraded with several important improvements.
Sony’s 5-inch Pocket Edition e-reader is now called PRS-350 and the 6-inch Touch Edition is called PRS-650; both are available now for $179.99 and $229.99 respectively. The 7-inch Daily Edition is now called PRS-950 and it will be available this fall for $299.99.
The smallest device in the bunch has 2GB of memory, a USB connection, and supports EPUB/ACS4, PDF, Microsoft Word, and other text file formats. Its 6-inch brother has similar specifications, with the addition of SD and Memory Stick Duo Expansion slots for adding additional memory, as well as a headphone jack and support for MP3 and AAC audio files.

Both, however, lack wireless; this is where the Daily Edition steps in, with 4GB of memory, wireless connectivity, and increased battery life (27 days with the wireless turned off, Sony claims).What distinguishes Sony’s e-readers from the competition is their E-Ink Pearl touch screen display. Previous models have also had touch screen capabilities, but the added touch sensitive layer over the e-ink screen added just a tad too much glare for our liking. Sony claims the new models are all significantly improved with this regard; additionally, the touch screen is now more responsive and page turns are much snappier.
Sony also said it will release a Reader Mobile Edition application for iPhone and Android-based smartphones later this year.
