#icam turns iphone 5 into a point and shoot camera icam Apple has revolutionized monumentally major industries like music and computing,
but Apple s vast achievements fall short of its late CEO Steve Job s dreams. According to his official biography by Walter Isaacson, Jobs originally envisioned Apple as game changer in almost every market like textbooks, television and photography.

all the rumors of the Apple empire descend upon us. And this year may be the craziest yet because for the first time since the iphones inception,
Apple did not release new hardware in the summer. And there are still whispers of an ipad revamp as well. ios 5 is coming. icloud is coming.
Things are already getting crazy enough that potential Apple announcement dates are topping Techmeme one minute
Now its time for me to indulge That one rumor that caught my eye this week was the talk of Apple looking into releasing an icloud Phone#alongside a new iphone 5 this fall.
Even Apples executives have hinted at the possibility. But the icloud angle is a particularly interesting one.
First reported by Apple N Apps, Trevor Sheridan writes: It has come to our attention that Apple is planning to combine ios 5
and icloud with a piece of hardware internally referred to as the icloud iphone. The icloud iphone will rely heavily on Apples new cloud based offering,
and less on internal storage. He continues: Apple is aiming for a $400 final price for the icloud iphone as compared to the typical $600 iphone price,
which the iphone 5 will cost. The carrier subsidization will bring the cost to consumers down to free with a 2 year contract for the icloud iphone with the same $199 iphone cost for the iphone 5. He cites three independent sources on the information,
Reducing the internal storage in the iphone is certainly one way Apple could reduce the overall cost of the device.
Apple has spent the past year and a half perfecting the manufacturing of the iphone 4,
To the first question, with Apple rolling out icloud this fall, the timing could be right.
Apple hasnt turned on things like music streaming from the cloud yet, but they easily could.
They recently did this with an Apple TV update for television shows. If you have connected an always device,
but overall, maybe Apple could get away with a device with just a few gigabytes or so of onboard storage.
After we reported on Apples work on a cheaper iphone a few people reached out wondering if the ipod touch could simply morph into this product?
In other words, Apple could upgrade the ipod touch with an iphone 4 body, including the 3g radio.
If thats Apples thinking for this product, it may be the perfect opportunity to create a phone that doesnt offer traditional phone service.
But if Apple sold it as more of an ipod touch with 3g capabilities, they may bite.
And to consumers, Apple could tout it as more of a lite#phone. It can do everything the iphone can,
if Apple was able to make the device cheaply enough. The low-end ipod touch is currently $229.
so maybe Apple would be more in favor of selling the device cheaply without a contract,
Whether or not Apple takes this path this year its pretty clear that this is the future.
Apple could kick-start this movement in the coming months. Or they might not. But someone will.

#CDC Confirms Lemon Eucalyptus oil as Effective as DEET Mosquitoes can be a huge problem. Its easy to say youll never use DEET,
According to the CDC, lemon eucalyptus oil could be a much safer and more natural weapon. The CDC confirmed that lemon eucalyptus oil can be as effective as DEET in repelling mosquitoes
a story reported on Mattermore: Oil of lemon eucalyptus active ingredient: p-menthane 3, 8-diol (PMD), a plant-based repellent,
is registered also with EPA. In two recent scientific publications, when oil of lemon eucalyptus was tested against mosquitoes found in the US it provided protection similar to repellents with low concentrations of DEET.
Mattermore reports that until recently, DEET was the only repellent recommended by the CDC, and approved for individual use by the Environmental protection agency (EPA).
Oil of lemon eucalyptus is plant-based repellent oil made from leaves of Eucalyptus citriodora. Concerns with DEET The most serious concerns about DEET are with the central nervous system:

#Class Action Lawsuit Filed Against Apple in US Over Location Tracking Issue Apple has been tracking your moves
Bloomberg was first to report today that two ipad/iphone users have filed a class action lawsuit accusing Apple of invasion of privacy and computer fraud,
The complaint cited a report last week by two computer programmers claiming that Apples ios4 operating system is logging latitude-longitude coordinates
along with the time a spot is visited#The programmers said Apple devices are collecting about a years worth of location data.
Apple hasnt commented on the matter since the April 20 report was released. The case is Ajjampur v. Apple Inc.

Apples iphone keeps track of where you go, security researchers have discovered. It also saves every detail of it to a secret file on the device
as the recording of data seems to have started with Apples ios 4 update to the phones operating system,
Apple has made it possible for almost anybody#a jealous spouse, a private detective#with access to your phone or computer to get detailed information about where youve been said
Apple might have new features in mind that require a history of your location, but thats our specualtion.
#But they said it does not seem to be transmitted to Apple itself. Although mobile networks already record phones locations, it is only available to the police
Apple declined to comment on why the file is created or whether it can be disabled. Warden and Allan have set up a web page
and created a simple downloadable application to let Apple users check for themselves what location data the phone is retaining.
#He suggested that Apple might be hoping that it would yield data for future mobile advertising targeted by location,
#I dont think Apple is really trying to monitor where users are.##The location file came to light
and how Apple intends to use it #or not#are important questions that need to be explored.#
Davies said that the discovery of the file indicated that Apple had failed to take users privacy seriously.
Apple can legitimately claim that it has permission to collect the data: near the end of the 15,200-word terms and conditions for its itunes program, used to synchronise with iphones,
#It says that Apple and our partners and licensees may collect, use, and share precise location data,

#An Apple a Day Really Does Keep the Doctor Away An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
A study has found that women on an apple diet saw their cholesterol drop by almost a quarter in six months.
80 women aged 45 to 65 were asked to eat 75 grams of dried prunes a day for a year,
and the other 80 were asked to eat the same amount of dried apple, in addition to their normal diets.
Dr Arjmandi said that incredible changes in the apple-eating women happened by 6 months-they experienced a 23 per cent decrease in LDL cholesterol,
concluded that there was some truth in the old adage An apple a day keeps the doctor away#.
#Apples have long been known to be a good source of fiber, but the study, funded by the US Department of agriculture, added to evidence that they had additional health benefits
which made them a miracle fruit#.#Dr Arjamandi said: Everyone can benefit from consuming apples.#

and software that Apple condemns. The jailbreak perks include: tethering the iphones Internet connection to a laptop or ipad without paying extra AT&T charges;
An early form of jailbreaking started shortly after Apple unveiled the iphone in 2007, but the practice has evolved now into a lucrative industry with millions of consumers.
the Library of Congress ruled in July that the practice did not violate Apples copyright.
#Apple and AT&T have been trying to crack down on the booming black market. Matthews said Apple pressed Toyota to remove the theme and the ad this past week,
which it did. Apple declined comment for this article. In the past, Apple has said jailbreaking the iphone
or ipad might void the devices warranty. Two years ago, Apple argued to the Library of Congress,
which oversees copyright, that the unauthorized modifications#constituted a violation, and that the company incurs very substantial expenses#investigating customer complaints about jailbroken iphones that dont work.
Mark Siegel, an AT&T spokesman said the company can detect which customers are tethering their iphones to other devices using an unauthorized hack;
Apple is this ivory tower, a controlled experience, and the thing that really bought people into jailbreaking is that it makes the experience theirs.#
