Yesterday Apple Store was down and we knew something was coming up. And yes, Apple launched new iMac with Quad Core Processors.
Here are some features of the new iMac:
Quad Core Power
The new iMac comes loaded with Quad-core Intel Core i5 and i7 processors that make it nearly 2x faster than the previous generation. It’s supposed to be the most powerful all-in one yet.
Lightning-fast data transfer
iMac is built with the Thunderbolt technology that lets you connect high-performance peripherals such as external drives to a single port. And you can achieve data transfer rates of up to 10 Gbps.
All-new AMD graphics
The new iMac features a next-generation AMD Radeon HD graphics processor that gives you graphics performance up to 3x faster than before. Good for Gaming and Image-Editing stuff.
FaceTime HD camera
The new iMac features a FaceTime HD camera for full-screen HD video calls that are astonishingly crisp. The camera supports full native resolution on the built-in display and up to a 30-inch display (2560 by 1600 pixels) on an external display.
The new iMac comes with Mac OS X Snow Leopard pre-installed. Prices start from $1,199.

Apple launched the first generation iPad in January 2011 in India. And just about a month later, Apple announced the iPad 2. Initially, iPad 2 was launched in fewer countries. Today, Apple launched iPad 2 in 13 more countries including India. Apple press release has confirmed that iPad 2 will be available in Hong Kong, India, Israel, Korea, Macau, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, South Africa, Turkey, UAE (on 29th April), Japan (April 28th) and China (May 6th-Wi-Fi).
Good news for Indians. It’s first time that a major Apple product has been launched in India within a short time of it’s release. Indian users can buy iPad 2 from Apple Store and Premium Resellers.
iPad 2 Pricing in India:
iPad with Wi-fi:
16 GB – Rs. 29,500
32 GB – Rs. 34,500
64 GB – Rs. 39,500
iPad with Wi-fi + 3G:
16 GB – Rs. 36,900
32 GB – Rs. 41,900

The iPad 2 price in India is more than that in the US, but is cheaper than in UK. Also, BSNL may launch iPad 2 with special 3G plans, as it had done for the 1st generation iPad.
You can find Apple Stores and Retailers for iPad 2 from Apple’s official site. So, how many of you will be buying iPad 2?
ApplenBerry.com, the official distributor of GEVEY Sims for iPhone 4, has recently announced the availability of GEVEY Pro, the successor to the original GEVEY Sim. Good news is that the prices have been slashed down to $50 $35. The original GEVEY sim was available for $75.
So, if the current 1st gen GEVEY isn’t working for you, you can try the GEVEY Pro. It is compatible with more sim cards and is more stable.
The GEVEY Sim Pro works on iOS 4.1, iOS 4.2, iOS 4.3.1 and also iOS 4.3.2 supporting the basebands 02.10.04, 03.10.01 and 04.10.01. ApplenBerry ships to most of the countries, but India is not included yet. So if you are from India and want to buy GEVEY Pro, you can try on eBay or wait for your local distributors to order GEVEY Pro for you.
I recently unlocked my iPhone 4 with GEVEY Sim and it’s working pretty good for me. So, I’ll stick to it for sometime before trying the GEVEY Pro.
Twitter, the famous microblogging site has now launched it’s own Tweet Button. The new Tweet Button has a simple and unique interface, which will allow users to share articles on their Twitter account with just one click.
One such similar application is Tweetmeme. Well, head’s up! Tweetmeme’s got a competitor now.
Today we’re launching the Tweet Button to make sharing simple. It lets you share links directly from the page you’re on. When you click on the Tweet Button, a Tweet box will appear — pre-populated with a shortened link that points to the item that you’re sharing.
