Kleinigkeiten: Haar-Risse & Google verschläft Update
AppleInsider schreibt über die erste, gegen Apple angestrengte Klage über Haar-Risse im Plastik-Gehäuse der 3G-Geräte:
„Koschitzki also claims that he is among several customers who’ve noticed hairline cracks form in the iPhone 3G’s casing at or around the camera module, and adds that some customers have noticed similar cracks immediately upon opening their new iPhones‘ boxes for the first time. „Although Apple was and is aware that the iPhones were and are defective, and that consumers have experienced repeated instances of cracked housing, Apple has nevertheless allowed the defectively designed iPhones to be sold to the public,“ the complaint says.“
Währenddessen spekuliert Techcrunch, leicht schadenfroh, über das von Google angekündigte Update der eigenen Such-Appliaktion, das aktuell noch immer nicht im AppStore eingetroffen ist. Das Demo-Video (Youtube-Link) zur sprachgesteuerten Suche -von Google zwischenzeitlich wieder zurückgezogen- haben wir euch im Anschluss angehangen.
„The application didn’t appear as promised, and Google took down the YouTube video demo’ing the product (although it’s still on the Google Channel YouTube page and embedded below). This is an extraordinary event. Other search app providers have told me they’ve been kept waiting months for approval of their app, with no explanation from Apple.“
