Wed November 23, 2011


From 360Cities

Well, did you know that your iPhone can take Panorama photos? That’s because the feature is already there, just hidden, to be eventually revealed in the next version, I guess. The folks at 360Cities have figured out how Apple hides these future features and reveal in this video how to activate the Panorama mode now.

Made you look, eh?

No, Apple did not get into the digital camera business and Nikon did not get into the mobile phone business. Rather, a couple of talented fellows have taken Steve Jobs up on his comparison of the iPhone 4 to the legendary Leica camera.

Download the Leica template at: MacRumors:Forums.

Rumors, rumors, rumors. Will the new iPhone do Video, à-la Kodak ZX1, the pocket HD video camcorder that is getting rave reviews for top fun factor? Just imagine if it did. Other rumors say that it is the new iPod Touch that will get the 5M video capability to re-invigorate sagging sales. And then there is the iTablet rumor which is probably giving Sony Reader Digital Book and Amazon Kindle designers sleepless nights.
