The new Apple iPhone 4 is out and iOS 4 Gold master edition has been seeded to all developers who are eagerly waiting to make feature rich iOS 4 compatible apps.

With iPhone 4 sales already surpassing 1.5 Million mark and Apple opening up a store for iOS 4 compatible apps it is very clear that the future is open for iPhone Game and application developers to explore. However game developers need to keep in mind few important iPhone 4 features while developing iOS 4 compatible games.

Few are the important iPhone 4 features which iPhone game developers should not miss out on.

Listropolis’ Take:

The crew here at Listropolis has made the switch to Android, but we’re still huge Apple fanboys, so we don’t mind a few iPhone lists from time to time. There’s nothing new in this post, but it’s a simple, in-your-face, list for game devs.

If you’ve read this blog for any time, you’ll know I’m not only a HUGE Apple/Mac fan, but I also have an unhealthy love with TUAW. I didn’t expect my feedreader to be active today, but good ol’ TUAW has written some of the coolest posts I’ve seen, and I wanted to share them. If you received a new Apple product today, there’s a good chance one of these posts will be just for you, and if you’re new to the Apple family, take a second and subscribe to TUAW’s RSS feed (feed link)!

This is a nice “Welcome to the family” post. It discusses the ease of setting up your new Mac, explains MobileMe, and Windows compatibility. This is a very solid post getting you started with your Mac, and helping you find ways to expand your experience – and if you don’t get enough from the post, check out their Mac 101 series for even more tips. Worth a read if you got your Mac today, or have had one for years.

This post has a ton of good information of accessories like cases, power adapters, and a handful of other useful items every MacBook owner should know about. The last item discussed is AppleCare, and I can’t stress how important I feel that service is. I’ll let TUAW explain the deets on it, but just know that I’m a huge supporter of AppleCare.

Since the MacBook Pro is often used as a desktop replacement, this post goes into more depth than the MacBook post. This post discusses ideas for travelers and gamers, and has a few nice software suggestions, as well as a nice list of cases to consider.

My niece got one of these a few months ago, so this post came in very handy. I’m an iPhone owner, and didn’t realize there were so many differences between the two. This post has a nice list of apps to get you started, lists a few good cases, earphone suggestions, and is just a well rounded guide for getting the most out of your new iPod Touch. My personal favorite is the “Oooh and Ahhh Demo” mentioned at the end of the post. We’ve all done it, but now there’s a guide for it. On a side note – the Nike+ app for the new iPod Touch is too freaking cool to not be available for the iPhone…..just sayin’.

THIS is why I love TUAW! They miss nothing when it comes to Apple. I never would have thought to do a post on a gift card, but this post has 8 tips on how to use your shiny new gift card. Pure TUAW awesomeness!

I went to the Apple Store in Orlando yesterday, and it was the first time I got to play with the new nanos, and they’re so much cooler looking in person. I imagine this will be one of the most read posts in this series, and the information discussed won’t let you down. Consider this a guide for setting up, using, taking care of, and anything else nano related. Very thorough.

I was starting to think TUAW made a mistake with this post, but then I started thinking about how amazing Macs are with digital media. I own a photography company, and use Lightroom and Photoshop almost daily. I think I took for granted how easy it is to process digital photos on a Mac, but TUAW really goes into great detail about using your new digital camera on your Mac.

If I didn’t do video editing, I would have purchased one of these instead of my Mac Pro (though the iMac handles video editing just fine). Like the other posts, this discussing everything from getting started to printing on your new iMac. I’m pretty sure you’ll find the Mac 101 series a huge asset with the iMac too.

The phone that started the touchscreen revolution. The TUAW post has info on cases, apps, links to user guides, and plenty of basic info to get any new iPhone owner headed into iPhone bliss. If you got an iPhone today, head over to this post and bookmark it. It provides everything you need to become a master of your domain device.

From Tech Radar:

There are simple steps that you can take in order to optimise your system for better performance. Sometimes this involves a little spring cleaning, other times a combination of hardware and software upgrading. Whichever you choose, it’s easier than you think to speed up your Mac. You could even feel like you’ve got a brand new machine.

From Cracked:

The iPhone 3G is so 24 seconds ago. It’s time to start thinking about the future and the next generation of iPhone. What kind of amazing features will it have? Or more importantly, what features will people be bitching about it not having?

We asked you to figure that out, (we’re incredibly lazy, you see), and decided to give $50 to our favorite.

From ZenHabits:

In the Old Testament, the story of Job showed a very faithful man whose faith is put to test, and shows an extreme example of perseverance through suffering … but in my mind, whenever I read Job’s story, I am struck by the man’s supreme patience.

While living a very faithful and righteous life, he nevertheless endured one infliction after another without ever cursing God’s name. I think most of us would have lost our patience and become frustrated and angry much earlier in the story.

While Job’s patience is legendary, I believe that even the most impatient of us can learn to be more patient with practice.

Personally, patience is something I’ve been cultivating for a long time. And while I often fail, I believe I’ve progressed over the years, and things that used to get me hot and bothered now just float past me. I still get upset, of course, but not nearly as much as I used to.

Here are some tips that might help you become more patient, with practice:

From Gizmodo:

Steve Jobs may have launched the iPhone 3G on Monday, and we may have gotten a hands on with it already, but in typical Apple fashion, there’s still a lot of stuff left unsaid. How does activation work? How will first-gen iPhone users bring an iPhone 3G onto their plan? Does the GPS work for driving? How much will games cost on the App Store? We’ve got answers. Lots of them.

I’m a huge fan of FriendFeed. Recently, FriendFeed introduced Rooms, allowing people to discuss very specific topics of interest. I thought it was worth listing 3 of these rooms that might have a little action come Monday during Apple’s WWDC where we might see the release of the iPhone 2 (or iPhone 3G if you prefer).

Here are the three rooms to watch on Monday:

The official WWDC 2008 Room

The Unofficial Apple Weblog Room

The Stevenote Room

If you know of any other rooms, please add them in the comments. These rooms are a great way to continue the conversation during and after the event.

MacHeist is at it again. They’ve just released their new bundle chock-full of great Mac shareware for $49! This isn’t a sponsored post… I just use many of these apps, and wish I knew this bundle was coming out. I easily spent the $49 on just a few of the apps listed.

To introduce you to mac shareware, they’ve put together a bundle of some of the best software offerings from the Mac community, and discounted the whole package to an insane amount. Online sales of the MacHeist Retail Bundle will only be for a limited time.

Here is a list of the apps included in this bundle:

Awaken

Awaken is a digital alarm clock that wakes you up by playing the iTunes playlist of your choice or choose from a selection of built in alarm sounds. Alarms can be created to alert you on a weekly basis at a set time, or at any specific date and time. You can also fall asleep to your favorite music using the sleep timer.

I was starting to sleep through my alarm, so I purchased this app, and have loved it ever since.

Cha-Ching

Cha-Ching is a fun and easy to use money manager, with a slick interface that uses advanced functionality built into OS X. I have been using this for about 6 months, and find it very easy to use. Continue Reading
