Retina Macbook Pro 2012 Leaked Specs

Hey there! Much excited for the WWDC 2012 today, in an hour! Lol. I believe that Apple will be releasing its new 'Retina' Macbook Pro's this week, and I just came across these specifications.
According to 9to5mac, Retina MacBook Pros will come with a 15-inch display and that Apple will release spec-bumped 13 inch and 15 inch MacBook Pros with the current design. They now have details on the spec-bumped 13 inch and 15 inch MacBook Pros:

• 13.3 inch: 2.5GHz dual core processor, 4GB of RAM, 500GB hard drive
• 13.3 inch: 2.9GHz dual core processor, 8GB of RAM, 750GB hard drive
• 15.4 inch: 2.3GHz quad core processor, 4GB of RAM, 500GB hard drive
• 15.4 inch: 2.6GHz quad core processor, 8GB of RAM, 750GB hard drive (BTO upgrades to 2.7GHz quad core and 1TB HD will be available)

They are yet to receive details on the Retina Display MacBook Pro and the new MacBook Airs, but we believe that those notebooks are still coming at WWDC. Also in the mix is an updated AirPort Express and USB SuperDrive. The current USB SuperDrive from Apple is marketed as a MacBook Air SuperDrive, so this new model likely is re-branded to support the next-generation (optical-drive-less) MacBook Pro. We also understand that Apple might refresh their MagSafe connector/adapter and sell new adapters and converters between new and old MagSafes. A new Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter will also be made available.

Thank you for reading! Hope you found this interesting.
If yes, share ;)

What to Expect in iOS 6

As you all know, Apple's WWDC 2012 is this monday, and everyone just can't wait for it! You must be so excited like I am! Lol. So, Apple will probably be releasing a new version of their OS. The iOS 6. And this will have a whole new set of features and I'd like to tell you what to expect in it! :)

• First of all, the UI theme will be changes a bit on the basis of colors. From blue and blue stripes, to silver, much like the iPad. This is a cleaner look, fitting completely with Apple’s mantra of getting the hell out of the way and let the content and apps do the talking.
• Second, a major improvement by Apple. 3D Maps :D Google is out now. Apple will have created a new Maps app and it will be in 3D.
• Automatic app updates! I believe this is finally coming in iOS 6. :D
• An iCloud keychain that syncs with your iOS devices and your Mac computers 
• Cloud tabs to let you open any tabs you have open on your desktop browser in the iOS browser.
• Facebook integration at the OS-level, just like Twitter — post photos and videos to Facebook, possibly check in as well.
• Location-based profiles/actions. This is a little bit of a stretch, but with Apple’s use of geofencing, I don’t think this is an impossibility. I would scream to have my phone customize different settings like ringers, Bluetooth and more based on my location. Apple may also add a notification silencing feature that is location and/or time-based.
• Siri for iPad.
• Expanded Siri functions, possibly including API access for third-party developers. This is a big challenge, but it should come sooner or later.
• AirPlay: 1080p mirroring.
• Live app icons. If Apple isn’t going to do widgets (though the company still may, at some point), a less resource-intensive way of showing updates on the home screen could come in the form of customizable icons or live app icons.
• Inter-app communication — this would finally solve the issue of apps not being able to share data with each other. It would still be sandboxed, but would solve a bunch of headaches that make iOS in some ways still feel like a mobile OS, and not just an OS.
• Unified omnibox in the browser for URL and search.
• New multitouch gestures, possibly two finger swiping.
• Improved multitasking interface and UI.
• Widgets in notification center (another possible compromise between home screen widgets and nothing new on this front).
• Improved email, maybe even multiple signatures, with a default for each account?
  
  Well I guess thats it!
