FaceTime Might Soon be Allowed to Run Over 3G

When FaceTime was first released in 2010 alongside the iPhone 4, many people were disappointed to find that it could only be used with a Wi-Fi connection, and not over 3G as expected, meaning no FaceTime on the go.

FaceTime’s limiting Wi-Fi only restriction may be lifted soon though, as indicated by a new warning found in iOS 5.1.1.

Nano-SIM Card Format ‘Wars’: Motorola and RIM Try to Compromise with Apple

Back in March, Apple was in a heated battle with Nokia, RIM and Motorola over who would get their design approved by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) as the new nano-SIM card standard for the future. While Motorola and RIM were willing to work with Apple, Nokia held fast against the tech giant and slung a bit of mud around to boot.

Now, The Verge has reported that RIM and Motorola teamed up to add some tweaks to Apple’s original design and the end results look promising. However, Nokia has yet to make its presence known in this new compromise.

Buffalo, NY Area iPad Project Pleases Teachers, Students

Last January I spoke with Peter Ciarelli, Williamsville Central School District Assistant Superintendent for Technology Services, about the school district’s planned iPad Pilot project for fifth grade classrooms. This week I visited Ms. Darlene Prowse’s classroom (disclosure: my son is her student) at Casey Middle School in East Amherst, New York to get the teacher and student perspectives about this project.

Not surprisingly, the iPad is a big hit with Ms. Prowse’s 5th graders, but rather than revolutionizing how the students learn, the iPad has proven, at least in her classroom, to support rather than reinvent the educational goals in the classroom.
