Comedy website Funny or Die made an entire movie in only a few weeks. The biopic based on former Apple CEO Steve Jobs’ life, iSteve, was originally scheduled to launch yesterday. Although there was no official airtime announcement, it was eventually delayed due to the tragic events that took place at the Boston Marathon yesterday afternoon.
Rumors continue to roll in about the design of the next gen iPad. Tactus.com published photos of a purported iPad 5-specific case mold and specs today.
Welcome back to another week of PadGadget Photobooth, my weekly column that features an array of useful photography apps and accessories. Last week, I highlighted Repix, an awesome iPad app that allows you to paint high quality effects onto portions of photos with a finger. Today I want to share a brand new accessory from the folks over at Photojojo.
The iFlash Drive is a thumb drive designed to work with the iPhone or the iPad, which is perfect for those of you who want a super quick and easy way to transfer photos from your computer to your iPad or from your iPhone to your iPad (it works in reverse, too).
For today’s Daily Deal we’ve found 7 great apps to add to your iPad collection. We have 4 productivity / entertainment apps and 3 game apps in today’s bundle.

Less than a week ago, Apple pulled AppGratis from the App Store. The banning was based on a new rule on Apple’s part, guideline 2.25, that states “Apps that display Apps other than your own for purchase or promotion in a manner similar to or confusing with the App Store will be rejected.” Today, the developers of the offending app are protesting the ban by petitioning users to send emails to Apple in support of allowing AppGratis back into the App Store.
According to TechCrunch, AppGratis has supposedly been selling its ability to drive titles upward in ranks to developers by taking money in exchange for promoting their apps.
Businessweek just published a report that shows that Apple employs four out of five of the top paid executives in the S&P 500. Even more interesting is the fact that none of them are CEOs. They are senior lieutenants that received cushy compensation packages to entice them to stay with the company.
According to a new report today from Bloomberg, Foxconn Technology Group, the world’s largest electronics manufacturing plant, began hiring again after a two-month freeze in preparation of Apple’s new line of products.
The Wall Street Journal (WSJ), in a separate report, claims that Foxconn will continue expanding its workforce in Zhengzhou to meet seasonal demands from clients, while an unnamed source claims the demand comes straight from Apple.
If you think you know everything there is to know about your iPad, you are probably wrong. Even Tim Cook probably doesn’t know everything the iPad can do. We try to help you out the best we can by offering up all of our knowledge and experience about Apple’s tablet. Last week, we told you how to ensure that, if your iPad goes missing, it can be tracked down and, hopefully, recovered.
This week, we are going to tell you what Siri can do for you. Plus, we thought we’d throw in some of the humorous things we’ve heard the sassy little virtual assistant say.
Garfield may hate Mondays, but here at Padgadget, Monday means new games, new apps, and new rumors about upcoming iPad launches. Mondays also mean that we get to talk about the App Store’s Editor’s Choice. Last week, Badland received the honor.
This week, Apple’s editors picked two games again. Mr. Crab is adorable and unique. It is a side-scrolling platform jumper that doesn’t scroll sideways at all. Instead, you scroll upward in a corkscrew fashion.
