Apple offers Free Case with an iPhone


Apple offers a free phone case to every owner of its iPhone4, as the company deals with problems surrounding the handset's antenna. 





The case will help overcome a widely reported issue in which phone signal strength was drained when the phone was held a certain way.



At the press conference, Steve Jobs said the problem affected a number of other phones on the market, not just the iPhone4 and that the media has blown it out of proportion.

Pushing the Restart Button

We have been inactive for a while now. We are rethinking the way we worked, rebranding and redesigning the website as it has been about 6 months since we last blogged.
This time though we would be focusing on general technological updates on trending on the social media along with a few extra additions.
We would also be adding a Apple section for OSX and iPhone users. Sorry for the inactivity, we won't take much of your time rather just re-start. You might notice errors in the older posts , and we apologize for them.
