iPad 2 Launch Day

So tomorrow is the day that the iPad 2 will be released. This release however didn’t see preorders of any kind unlike most every other Apple product that gets released. There have been some rumors that Apple did this to insure that there are lines so they can make some headlines. Either way I’m sure Apple will sell a ton of these and people will be able go get an iPad at many different locations; Apple Store, Best Buy, Walmart, Target, Att and Verizon. So hopefully everyone that ones to get one on launch day can get one. Also remember they don’t go on sale until 5 pm. Let us know in the comments if you went and got one.

New Notifications

One of the weaknesses iOS has over its competition is notifications. All other modern OS’s implement a more elegant way to notify of new text messages and emails however in iOS it’s very distracting. So I was thinking of a way that they could make an improvement in the upcoming iOS 5 and than it hit me. Whenever you open up a game that supports game center you get a little pop down notification welcoming you back to game center and than disappears. This will probably be the new way that Apple will do notifications and just build on to what they have.
