iPhone 5S
iPhone 5S is the most talked about device at the time.

Mailbox - Free Alternative to Apple Native Mail App
Since Thursday I test mailbox (free alternative to Apple Mail App) - the app with the queue. The hype was perfect in the run up rocks , the review embargo for download start durchexerziert and the waiting brands that brings out the application for a registration, are the final piece of the puzzle of the staging. Thus, the past weekend was an iPhone email application for Gmail customers.
Basically it is not surprising: Sparrow created a similar stir. The reasons are similar: The App Store, there is a lack of good e-mail apps. In addition, iOS can not continue to set default application. That fact alone drives users with rebellious spirit to other programs. No matter that for a little push Action all emails are driven through their servers start-ups. A ' privacy issue '? Looking at the queue which seems not so.
- Mailbox is based on the assumption that I've lost control of my inbox. It relies on mapping, categorization, and memories. Messages can be hidden, for example, and re-appear after a few hours in the inbox. Does not sound stupid, but I'm not. I open mail, answer or do I delete messages. Only in very selected (stubborn) cases I manage electronic mail to my to-do list in OmniFocus on.
- No app is clearer signs of a friendly takeover. Sparrow demanded money for his product; mailbox scaled exclusively on accounts. I enjoy disabuse if IMAP mailboxes are available in the next update as an in-app purchase. However, unless the priorities be as clearly towards buying and completely open, as Orchestra want to make money, this is for me as a customer is not very appealing.

Palm OS emulator for iPhone and iPod touch
A premise: This article is a high rate of nostalgia. Nostalgia for those - and there are many among MacUser - who have owned, used and "consumed" at least a Palm Pilot, have connected the serial cable to a Performa fingers crossed hoping to get a sync, have "sanded" the pen to avoid scraping the delicate touch-screen, have your Palm connected to the phone via infrared, spent the night in front of a small B / W screen backlit in green.
It seems a century has passed since then (and in computer terms it really is), but now there is hope that all the huge database of programs and utilities for Palm OS - many simple, but some still unsurpassed for comfort and "cunning" - can be used through the sophisticated Multi-touch for iPhone and iPod touch .
All thanks to StyleTap , software house that already produces a Palm OS emulator for Windows Mobile devices, and which has made a beta of this emulator for OS X Mobile, whose operation is shown in the video above.
Now, the company has now committed to the production of this software, nor has launched a program of public beta testing: it all depends on the characteristics of the official SDK (which we hope is not imminent and belated) and, above all, the interest that raise this solution.
's up to you, therefore, commit to promote their birth; paraphrase an old saying: "Nostalgic of the world, unite!"

Jobs took a smartphone out of your pocket, which on the front had only one button and operate almost entirely by finger gestures made. The fans in the hall of locked, the bosses of the cell phone companies should have become queasy at the moment. Jobs showed what was a milestone in the smartphone development;. The industry at the time had no equal in the pan "This must apps missing on any iPhone."
R.I.P. Steve Jobs († 2011)
The reactions were quite different: Manufacturers talking either the chances for the small iPhone or trying desperately to catch up with their own touch-screen models. This was achieved in the following years only partially, because the established smartphone operating systems, such as "Java" or "Windows Mobile" were unsuitable for touchscreen use. Episode: Market shares were flutes. For years, former top dogs such as Nokia, Motorola and RIM are fighting for a place in the sun - so far in vain.
Studies and sales figures show that, especially a company has been able to offer Apple Paroli: Samsung recognized the signs of the times and continued after the release of the iPhone on similarly styled models and developed by Google "Android" operating system. Devices such as the bestseller " Galaxy S3 "prove that Samsung has done its homework. Contrast, other manufacturers like Nokia, Motorola, and RIM (Blackberry) continue to fight poor sales figures.
