Antennagate viva la Mexico!
Posted by Justin on Aug 31, 2010, Categories: iPhone
CanalMX has posted some comments from an executive at TelCel, one of the two iPhone providers in Mexico. The exec has claimed that Apple will be revising the current hardware, which has been plagued with the "death grip", at the end of September, which is when the free case program expires. Now, wether or not this is true is hard to say - honestly speaking why would an executive at TelCel have this kind of information. Maybe he just misunderstood what the Sept 30th case expiration date really meant. Apple did say that the expiration...

AutoCAD returns to the Mac!
Posted by Justin on Aug 31, 2010, Categories: software
After nearly 20 years of being anti-Mac, Autodesk is finally bringing back AutoCAD, the very popular 2D/3D design software, to the Mac. Autodesk ditched the Mac OS back in the early 90's (as did many other software manufacturers and users) Starting this October, you too can pay $4000 for AutoCAD on your Mac. So nany-nany poo poo to the PC users who say they only use PC because of AutoCAD. Autodesk is also reportedly working an a version of AutoCAD that will work on the iOS. Clearly you aren't going to be building the Sears...

250,000 apps and more.
Posted by Justin on Aug 30, 2010, Categories: iPad, iPhone
148apps has recorded 252,227 apps in the App store as of last saturday. This includes all apps for the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad. We're sure this will all be said again when Mr. Jobs does his keynote this coming Wednesday. Electronista reports that while the App store has the commanding lead, the Android market has about 100,000 apps, and the poor blackberry only has 9,000 despite RIM having a larger market share in the smartphone arena. If this were wrestling, RIM would be the large guy who always used to win, Android would...

Need Dual SIM cards…no problem
Posted by Justin on Aug 30, 2010, Categories: iPhone
Ok so you are a big shot international traveler. And you know that AT&T's roaming rates are crap. So what do you do? You can get a second SIM card and keep popping it in and out when you need it, or you can spend $29 bucks and get a Dual SIM card system from USBFever. Now here at the BAB, we are questioning it's validity, but it looks pretty solid. It currently works with all the firmwares that come with the iPhone 4 (4.0, 4.0.1, 4.0.2). It even comes with...

ATI is dead…Long live AMD!
Posted by Justin on Aug 30, 2010, Categories: Apple Stuff
ATI, the video card maker, is dead. Started in 1985, the Canadian company was acquired by chip-maker AMD in 2006. For the last four years AMD has let ATI be, creating great video cards such as the Radeon series...until Today. AMD has deleted the ATI nomenclature from it's databases. Long live AMD!!! Ok so here's the story. AMD is moving towards the CPU-GPU combination systems. This is used for energy and space saving. Remember when the first MacBooks and Mac Minis came out? They had an Intel GPU950. That combination GPU share...

Posted by Justin on Aug 30, 2010, Categories: iPad, iPhone, software
Well not exactly. The new Starcraft II Gameboard coming in September turns your iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad into a control pad for the popular Blizzard game. You can easily issue orders and build new units from the app. It essences, it's just mapping hot keys to graphical buttons and sending those commands to a background app that's running on your....wait what?
