Apple's iPhone and iPad Sales Competition in Q4

According to the latest Sales Report from IHS conducted competition between Appleproducts in Q4 of 2011. It has been observed that tablet market is really going higher with the maximum revenue from Apple iPad and iPad 2 and also from Amazon's Kindle Fire tablet. But according to the report Apple's iPad is actually facing competition with its own sibling iPhone in terms of most selling in Q4 of 2011. No doubt that Apple'siPad generation tablets have beat Amazon's Kindle Fire in term selling but still it’s far behind as compare to Apple iPhone Smartphone.

IHS report has mentioned that in the last three months of 2011, Apple shipped 15.4 million iPads and iPad 2s. During that same period, Apple slipped from 64% of the global media market to 57%. Apple's CEO Tim Cook has also recently revealed that the company sold more iOS devices last year than it sold Macs in 28 years. According to Rhoda Alexander, IHS Senior Manager; “Shipments of the iPad line fell short of IHSestimates in the fourth quarter as many loyal Apple customers devoted their dollars to shiny new alternatives,” However, the primary alternative wasn’t the Kindle Fire which debuted to solid sales in the fourth quarter but Apple’s own iPhone 4S smartphone. The rollout of the iPhone 4S in October generated intense competition for Apple purchasers’ disposable income, doing more to limit iPad shipment growth than competition from the Kindle Fire and other media tablets.”

Apple TV can run fullscreen iOS Applications - Unofficially

Apple TV is one of the low budget Apple iOS device from a company which provides total entertainment to its users. The price of the Apple TV is low as $99.00 contains powerful hardware specification includes Apple A4 chipset with a PowerVR SGX535 and 256 megabytes of RAM, running modified iOS builds from those on iPods touch, iPhone touch, and iPad touch. Apple TV exists as a media center settop box officially but users can also Run any iOS Applications including apps from iPhone, iPod and iPad on jailbroken Apple TV unofficially.

There is one video available on internet which provides you an evidence of runningiOS Apps on Apple TV. The video shows demo of some iOS Apps like Facebook, Maps, Safari and YouTube on a jailbroken Apple TV. This is not AirPlay, the apps are running directly from the Apple TV and scaling to 720p. 

According to MacDaddy News, MobileX is a window manager for iOS that replaces Springboard, letting iPhone and iPad apps run on the Apple TV. Since the Apple TV doesn’t have a touch screen, they are using a combination of VNC, SSH and the Apple Remote to launch and navigate apps. Once the app progress finalized by two developers, you will be able to launch apps using only the remote. I think its one of the cheapest way to run iOS Apps directly on $99 Apple TV.

Somehow or Someway Apple has now become the World's largest and biggest Mobile Technology Litigation Company in last two years as compare to its competitors i.e. Nokia, HTC, Samsung, Google, Kodak, Motorola, Elan etc. It’s true that many Patents’ Lawsuit and Litigation are going on in this year as well as previous two years either its patent’s lawsuit war between Apple and Samsung, Apple and Nokia, Apple and Google or Apple and HTC etc. but the winner of biggestMobile Technology Patent's Lawsuit is surely an Apple.

Top Best Five (5) iPhone & iOS Alarm Clock Apps Review with Download Links

Download Top Best Five (5) Alarm Clock Applications for iPhone, iPad and iPod Devices with Review and Prices

The iPhone comes with an alarm clock that is predictably named as the iClock. It has the basic alarm functions and works pretty well for most standard uses. For those of you who are looking for a snazzier alarm clock that has more features, the App marketis the place to be. Unfortunately, there are more alarm clock apps than any one human could possibly need and many of them are poorly built. Here’s a look at the best iPhonealarm clock apps that have good reviews and have been tested for efficacy. 

When you use a third party alarm app, remember to keep the alarm app in the foreground. If you forget to do this, then the app will work, but it your iPhone is in mute or vibrate mode, then the alarm ringer will not work. This is not the apps fault. Rather, it is the way the iOS has restricts the functionality of apps.

1)  Wake and Shake iOS App Review:

This alarm app has a very basic alarm clock with an interesting twist. It forces you to do a physical activity to shut off the alarm. The idea is to get rid of your sleepiness by forcing you to do a physical action. You have to shake the phone till a shake meter is filled to switch off the alarm. This cute alarm app costs just $1 on the app store. (Grab & Download Now)

2)  Alarmed iOS App Review:

This app is worth checking out as it is the exception to the rule that the app has to be in the foreground for the alarm to ring. Granted, this app does not have a customizable appearance or weather updates, but it is very utilitarian. It has timers and remindersand works even when the app is not on. (Grab & Download Now)

3)  Nightstand Central iOS App Review:

This $2 app is one of the most popular alarm clocks on the app store. Its main view displays the time and the weather. It allows you to toggle between the 12 hour and 24 hour format. You can even set up multiple alarms each with its own sound or music. An interesting feature that this app comes with is that is lets you turn on the iPhone’s LED light by just shaking the phone. It’s a very useful feature when you wake up in a dark hotel room while travelling. It also has a sleep timer that allows you to read a book orlisten to music for a set time and then shuts is off so that it does not play throughout the night. (Grab & Download Now)

4)  Radio Alarm iOS App Review:

This $2 app has been crafted with a lot of thought regarding its look, feel and usability. As the name states, it wakes you up by playing music from the radio. You can choose your favorite station from over 30,000 stations using SHOUTcast RADIO. Some of the nice touches added include the ability to set the volume so that you don’t miss thealarm, have a vibrate mode and even fade-in the music so you don’t wake with a jolt. (Grab & Download Now)

5)  Alarm Clock Pro iOS App Review:

This app brings the standard bedside LED lit alarm clock to the iPhone. It’s no nonsense look is great for people who prefer simplicity and it has most of the basic features that you would expect from a good alarm clock. (Grab & Download Now)
