In a press release minutes ago, Apple announced to the world that the new Worldwide Developer conference, or WWDC, will be taking place this year from June 6-10 at Moscone West in San Francisco.

We've seen our fair share of humorous videos featuring the very popular Angry Birds. There's been the excellent peace summit, and the birthday cake, not to mention Rovio's own promotional videos, that will undoubtedly bring a smile to any face. We've got another one today, and it will make your Sunday.

Apple has gotten a bit of bad press in the past over their use of liquid contact indicators in their various devices. These little chemical patches allow Apple to know when your device stopped functioning after being in contact with water or exposure to extreme humidity, thereby voiding your warranty. Yet, this might now be a thing of the past.

Despite Apple's recent increased efforts to thwart jailbreaking, the jailbreak community has been doing very well at circumventing the limitations and coming up with new ways to break into Apple's new firmware. Despite releasing two new versions of iOS in the last few weeks; iOS 4.3 and this week 4.3.1, both versions have already been jailbroken.

We know many of you will soon be coming home after a long day of queuing for the new iPad. Indeed, almost half of our readers are from outside the U.S. If you were lucky enough, or rather queued long enough, you're probably contemplating the wonderful piece of technology that is the iPad 2. But, what do you do next? Read on to find out...

Apple has just released, to most of its iDevice owners around the world, a brand new version of iOS labeled 4.3.1.

This week, Apple continues pushing the great gaming experience iOS brings, as well as Game Center social integration, in a new TV ad; "If you don't have an iPhone."

Good news for Apple, and bad news for you if you haven't ordered an iPad 2 and aren't standing in line. Apple started accepting online orders for the iPad 2 in many countries this morning at 1 a.m. with a shipping delay of two to three weeks. The first round of iPads have already sold out, and new orders are showing a three to four week delay.

Despite the lack of stock in the US, Apple still seems on track to launch the iPad 2 around the world this Friday. We also heard more about availability and pricing, so check it out.

In an unexpected move, AT&T, the biggest US mobile carrier just announced that it's acquiring T-Mobile, the fourth largest national mobile provider in terms of subscribers and only other one operating on the GSM band.

To help you decide which one should be yours, we've considered all the aspects and made a simple, three-stage explanation that will bring you to the right decision, one you won't regret.

We've told you all about Personal Hotspot, Apple's new Wi-Fi tethering option included in the upcoming iOS 4.3. It works great and is incredibly convenient. Unfortunately, depending on your carrier, it might come with a monthly fee, unless you get yourself TetherMe.

The iPad, despite its success, hasn't quite been the savior the publishing industry had hoped for. As we reported many times, iPad magazine have been lacking and failed to attract a lot of public. Yet, if you thought that would motivate publishers to lower their prohibitive prices, you couldn't be more wrong.

Can't have enough of the iPad 2 launch event? Seen all the videos and bonuses? Well here is something that will most certainly make your lonely Saturday evening. Some folks took Steve Jobs' presentation, auto-tunned it and made a great song out of it.

As announced at the iPad 2 launch event, Apple has dramatically improved in iOS 4.3 the engine that powers Mobile Safari. Of course, the iPad 2 will mainly benefit of the improvements thanks to its dual-core A5 processor, and increased RAM. Yet, current iPad owners will be pleased to know that iOS 4.3 will also slightly speed up their browsing.

Following Apple's decision to put the first generation iPad on clearance following the iPad 2 announcement, AT&T has decided to follow Apple's footsteps today and discount its iPads as well.

We already knew what Apple had planned to add to iOS 4.3, thanks to the many developer previews they released. One feature we didn't know about, that was unveiled on Wednesday, was Home Sharing. It's a feature that allows users to access their iTunes library from their iDevices over Wi-Fi.

Steve Jobs was very clear, on Wednesday, that trying to compare the iPad to anything else, especially using only spec sheets, doesn't make much sense. He's got a point, as there is so much more to the iPad 2 than the raw specifications. Yet, now that Engadget committed the terrible affront of comparing iPad 2 specs to other tablets, we can't help but make the comparison.

We were all thrilled when AT&T announced that they will allow iPhone 4 users to take advantage of the upcoming iOS 4.3 Wi-Fi tethering feature (for $20/month). Of course, they had to offer this after Verizon got the feature. Yet, it wouldn't be AT&T if they didn't mess around with it, even just a bit.

Following yesterday's announcement, Apple finally released the pre-final version of iOS 4.3 to developers. The iOS 4.3 GM will allow developers to iron out any last few bugs and prepare their apps before the public launch of the latest version of iOS next Friday, March 11th.

As you know, Apple just unveiled the iPad 2 at a special event in San Francisco. Right after that, we had the chance to give this wonderful new tablet a ride. So before you turn your old iPad into a sushi tray, check out our first impressions.
