40% of the devices are stolen in New York Apple

The FCC last spring revealed that 40% of all robberies important roles in the city of New York are designed to smartphones. Now Raymond Kelly, police commissioner of New York, said that 40% of thefts of devices is for Apple products. This has been suffered Rolfe Winkler, correspondent for The Wall Street Journal, which was recently docked in Brooklyn carrying an iPad. So says Winkler:

"I was distracted reading an e-book when the subway doors opened on Bergen Street in Brooklyn. In an instant, a pair of hands beat me and I yanked off the iPad. I chased the guy instinctively. But he was not alone, and had some companions who had not seen. So, instead of retrieving the iPad, I found myself lying on the ground bleeding and starting with the jaw. "

Winkler also cited a 2011 report from the NYPD in which details a rising tide of "iCrímenes"

"How big is the wave iCrímenes? Official data are not available, but in New York, there were over 26,000 complaints of theft of electronic devices in the first 10 months of 2011. Of these 26,000, 81% are mobile phones. In Washington DC, the thefts of mobile phones rose by 54% between 2007 and 2011, according to the Metropolitan Police Department. And the data can drastically underestimate the theft, since many of them are not robberies, so victims do not report it. "

The growing tendency to steal Apple devices is not limited to New York. In May, an important woman, now known as "iThief" stole more than 100 iPad Texas based chain of Walmarts. The retail giant, even videotaped the exit. Retail crime is not as threatening as the violent attacks, however, there are extreme cases, like one that happened earlier this month when masked assailants with assault rifles, hit a truck loaded with Apple products passed through Aulnay-sous-Bois, in Paris.

So you are warned, if you travel to New York very careful with removing your iPhone or iPad in that area as it is fashionable to steal Apple devices.

Covers manufacturers begin testing mini iPad

Some manufacturers of cases appear to have access to sources of Apple's supply chain, from time to time, give them an idea of what to expect of future IOS devices. We saw some fairly accurate approximations of the iPad 2 last year and this year the cast of the third generation of iPhone. However, early case for the iPhone 5 we saw in late 2011 was not as successful. Today it is the turn of the covers for a possible mini iPad. Following some advice received from their sources, the manufacturer of covers DeviceWear has published on its website a sample of cases for the iPhone mini.

I have not clear that these designs are approaching the final look of the iPhone Mini, since, as said before, last year did so with the iPhone 5 and their designs were false, but managed to grab the attention of the media alike. DeviceWear may be doing the same this year. In any case, your website can see some images of their covers. These images include several renderings of the mini iPad . Ports and design features are consistent with previous reports and show a smaller tablet from Apple, with rear microphone, speakers, dock connector relocated and smaller, so it is likely that renders closely resemble the final appearance of the iPhone Mini.

What do you think? Do you think the mini iPad will be like?

Samsung is preparing a 11.8-inch tablet screen Retina

Mother of juicy news that is giving the trial between Samsung and Apple. In this trial have come out today about documents revealing that Samsung is working on a tablet, with project code "P10", including LTE connectivity and a 11.8 inch screen with resolution 2,560 x 1,600 (WQXGA). We know that Apple has taken the market for tablets to another level with the screen Retina new iPhone , so it's no wonder that Samsung, one of the largest manufacturers of LCD and AMOLED world, be pressured to release a device Galaxy with a screen that can display to overshadow the Retina. Although the 11.8 inches can shake the portability of the tablet, the P10 could be classified as a device Retina with a density of 256 dpi.

BGR was the first to talk about the possibility that Samsung will release a tablet of large, high resolution late last year, which was linked to a probable Mobile World Congress, but it seems that the Korean company's plans may have delayed several months, although the documents referred to simply as a product P10-2012. However, there is an event scheduled for mid-August in New York City. We understood it was to submit a revised Notice Galaxy 10.1, but who knows, maybe surprise us and have the Galaxy Tab 11.8. We will be watching.

What would seem that Samsung will launch a version of its Galaxy Tab Retina? Do you think that had anything to do against the new iPad?

In May, the applicants of the massive demand for the pricing of electronic books involving Apple and five other editors, sent a summons to Walter Isaacson, author of the biography of Steve Jobs, demanding that he hand over the notes he took while writing the biography. The notes, of course, include quotes and ideas from the co-founder of Apple Steve Jobs. The plaintiffs believed that the notes could have shown that Steve Jobs had orchestrated a conspiracy against Amazon, which could have been used as strong evidence in the case against Apple.

But Isaacson refused to surrender the notes as evidence, his lawyers asked the District Attorney to remove the citation was for two weeks, citing journalistic protection law. As reported by Publishers Weekly, the judge has ruled that Isaacson would not submit his notes as evidence. Interestingly, Isaacson's lawyer said his notes and recordings contained no conversation about the prices of electronic books.

Not the first time that the work of Isaacson is called to the courtroom. A judge recently ruled that some comments from Steve Jobs that appear in the biography can be used in the patent case with Motorola and Apple. Samsung also hopes to use some comments in his legal battle against Apple.

Isaacson notes with offside, the case still has a long way to go. Three of the five accused publishers have already been planted, but Apple and two other publishers think fighting the case.

One of the many trials in which Apple is stuck .
