The rumors that were flying high about the launch of the iPad5 seem to have some substance after all. The rumors claim that the iPad5 will weigh a lot less and will certainly be thinner, and have a lot in common with the iPad Mini . In other words, it is going to be a lot different from the iPad4 which is heavier and thicker. The iPad Mini is to have the very same 7.9-inch display, but will be different in that it will sport the famed Retina resolution of 2048 X 1536 and have the A6X SoC processor that is now found in the iPad4. The iPad5 is expected to hit the shelves sometime in September, and not March, or April or May as rumored earlier. It will be a good 4mm shorter and narrower by 16mm. The thickness is expected to be reduced by at least 2mm, when compared to the iPad4, which brings it a lot closer to the iPad Mini. Ultimately the iPad5 will end up being just 7.4mm long , which will automatically reduce the weight, and consequently the battery life as well. The iPad Mini

After a breathless waiting period, the first untethered jailbreak for iOS 6.0 and 6.1 has been released. The jailbreak, called evasi0n and developed by evad3rs, has been released on evasi0n.com for all to download. The jailbreak is compatible with all iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad and iPad Mini devices that are running iOS 6.0 or above. Installing the jailbreak is quite simple - just a matter of downloading the release for your computer's operating system (there are options for Linux, Mac OS X and Windows) and following the instructions. Probably the most important thing to remember to do is back up your device to iTunes / iCloud before you begin, just so that if anything goes wrong you'll be able to recover your data. Apparently disabling lock passcodes can also be a good idea. For the full instructions, check out the website or simply run the app. With the release coming just one week after the new version of iOS was release, the timing is no accident. It'

The iPad Mini The iPad : one of the most necessary devices in the American household. It’s on every coffee table, every dining room table, and in every bedroom of every modern dwelling this side of the planet. It’s awesome! And while it has become a staple for most people, it hasn't quite caught on as well in the business world. And I’m not sure why, because it offers anything and more for business actions. In addition, once business people who haven’t been able to utilize an iPad for business to make it more efficient get used to the idea, they’ll wonder how they made it through life without one for so long. If you’re interested in seeing how the iPad can make your business life much, much easier, check out these three reasons why: Much More Portable than Your Laptop Your laptop is probably a really heavy monster of a thing, right? How can you seriously use that thing other than at home or on an airplane or something? It’s just not very practical at all. Luckily,

The Adastra superyacht is a floating pleasure palace that would fit as comfortably in outer space as it would on the open sea. And as these amazing new pictures show, she is equipped to entertain a billionaire with even the highest of standards. She is the the new pet of Hong Kong-based shipping magnate Anto Marden, whose uses for her may include – among other things – gliding between the two tropical islands he already owns off the coast of Indonesia. Designed by Sussex-based yacht designer John Shuttleworth, the Adastra is so high-tech, it can even be controlled remotely at the touch of an Apple iPad … as long as you don’t get any further away than 50 metres. The yacht’s high-concept, space-age look is no gimmick. The shape has been specially developed to cut through waves as it glides across the high seas for easy travelling . Described as ‘one of the world’s most amazing super yachts’, Adastra, unveiled yesterday in China, took five years to build, is 42.5 metres long, 16
