0:28
it the hype is real and the hype will
0:31
not die down till we get it I want it
0:33
and you want it more images of the
0:35
supposed iPhone 6 have yet again leaked
0:37
this time from Apple's key supplier
0:39
foxcon while the images lead off of
0:41
previous rumors of a 4.7in screen these
0:44
images also hit at a relocated power
0:46
button an unrounded volume rocker and my
0:49
favorite smoothly rounded corners I'll
0:51
tell you one thing these rumors only get
0:52
me more and more excited for the real
0:54
thing and if the rumored release date of
0:56
August holds to be true you know I'm
0:58
going to be there are you looking to get
1:00
an iPhone 6 if so what do you hope to
1:02
see in the next generation of the phone
1:04
let us know in the comment section below
1:06
and I know I may be going out on a limb
1:08
here but remember those old things
1:10
called cassette tapes what we used to
1:12
use before CDs and MP3s even became a
1:14
thing well you may just see cassettes
1:16
coming back to the light in the future
1:18
as just this past week Sony revealed
1:20
that they've created a cassette tape
1:21
like no other able to store up to 100
1:24
terabyt of data now to get a mental
1:26
picture this equates to 47.3 million
1:29
songs and an apple fanatic can know that
1:31
this totals up to
1:33
1,184 iPod Classics Sony hopes to find a
1:36
commercial use for this storage device
1:38
in the near future cassettes coming back
1:40
I can honestly say I never saw that
1:43
coming sick of seeing the same tweets or
1:45
just annoying tweets on your timeline
1:47
well Twitter has released a fix to help
1:49
you out with that this week as the hit
1:50
social networking site has rolled out a
1:52
new feature called muting now tweetbot
1:54
users like me probably already use this
1:57
but what this means is that whether
1:58
you're on twitter.com or your iOS or
2:01
Android device you can mute an account
2:02
you're following basically hiding any
2:04
content from tweets to retweets of
2:07
anything Associated to that person it's
2:09
like unfollowing them but you know not
2:11
unfollowing them at the same time and
2:13
they never even know our very own Buster
2:15
hind has more on the new feature and
2:16
more on cat.com and with apple
2:19
supposedly finishing their unannounced
2:21
acquisition of Beats by Dre it's clear
2:23
that they want to improve their side of
2:25
audio as it's expected that at WWDC this
2:28
summer iOS 8 will be push alongside High
2:30
Def Audio and even new inear earpods iOS
2:34
7's standard music app currently is
2:35
unable to play highquality 24-bit sound
2:38
but Apple hopes to change that very soon
2:40
are you happy with your audio or do you
2:42
think Apple's new headphones could even
2:44
become too pricey we want to know what
2:46
you think let us know in the comment
2:47
section below and while we get all of
2:50
these iPhone 6 rumors leak specs and
2:52
everything we still don't even know when
2:54
it's going to come but it's been noticed
2:56
that Apple Stores can be the nearest
2:58
hint at around the time we can expect
2:59
the new device Apple retail stores have
3:01
started blacking out vacation dates for
3:03
their employees pointing to what looks
3:05
like could be a September launch Apple
3:07
has banned employees from taking
3:08
vacations in previous launch months and
3:10
while the exact blackout dates have not
3:12
been released we'll take what we can get
3:14
for now and last but surely not least
3:17
it's been announced by dong win the
3:18
developer of the Smash Hit and addicting
3:21
game Flappy Bird that he will return
3:22
