No I can’t say that Apple has now allowed Flash on their iPhones, iPods or iPads but what I can report is that there are in fact ways to get it running with applications actually available on the AppStore for free with no jailbreaking or software modifications required. Pick up either Cloud Browse or Mocha VNC Lite and you’ll be able to get this to work! Cloud Browse works by allowing you to use flash on a web browser from their own servers. Other than a little lag it works great! The only downside is that they limit the amount of time you spend on it so that other users can use the service as well. Mocha VNC Lite works by connecting to your own computer either Mac or PC and displaying your computer screen on your iDevice’s screen allowing you to control it. You’ve probably already caught onto this one! Simply open up your web browser on your computer and enjoy using flash! Of course because you’re using your own computer there is no limit on the service like Cloud Browse. The only downside is that there is no audio with Mocha VNC Lite, there is audio with Cloud Browse! I hope you enjoy exploring new media, videos and games run on flash on your iDevices. Now you don’t need to complain to Apple anymore, your device has everything it needs! Be sure to watch our full video demonstration of both of these apps!
Announced just a few hours ago by Opera, a popular web browser creator, their new Opera browser for the iPhone has gone into review with Apple. Whether or not it will even be approved is another story. Apple has rejected other web browsers in the past. Watching their demonstration video gives evidence that it allows you to open multiple tabs in a simple to use interface as well as copy images, open links in new tabs and much more. The speed of their browser is alone a reason to give it a download. They took two identical iPhones, one using the Safari browser and one using their Opera browser. The speed difference was incredible, the Opera browser loaded five pages in the time that Safari loaded one! It’s really hard to say if it was a set up but visually it seems legitimate. If this Opera browser is truly as good as they made it look in their video, I would love to download and try it out for myself! But we shouldn’t speak to soon as Apple could reject it in the next few minutes! Click here to watch their live count up clock on their website for its submission to Apple.
Apple claims that reviewing an iPhone application for the app store should take approximately 14 days. I think not! I submitted an application to the iPhone app store 3 months ago. As you can see from the screenshot above, I submitted the app May 31. It is now the beginning of september and YES, it is still in review. I sent them an email inquiring about my submission and they replied a week later saying; “Unfortunately we have no further information at this time”. Everyone knows that’s basically a friendly way of asking me to leave them alone! I have to say, I love Apple. I think they are an awesome company, their products such as the Mac and the iPhone are incredible. But I have to say, they have truly disappointed and discouraged me! Apple famously says; “There’s an app for just about anything!”. There could be apps for even more things if they went a little faster! I don’t know exactly how many people are on the apple review team but i think they should consider hiring more!
On August 4 Apple opened iTunes in Mexico. It has been given a huge selection of mexican and international music from around the world. It has launched with millions of songs. The App Store is included in this opening and it joins the crowd of over 65,000 apps. Apple says they are exited to see what new developers can come up with.
One may ask, how much does a mexican song cost on iTunes? Well, the answer is 12 pesos!
