Adobe announced today that Flash developers will be able to create applications that run natively on the iPhone, but the ability to have Flash plugged into Safari remains missing.
VMware is in the early stages of embedding its technology in a range of smartphones, enabling them to connect to PCs and run applications that were designed for other mobile phones.
Apple began shipping Snow Leopard on Friday, but the true importance of the Mac OS X update likely will emerge well afterward.
Snow Leopard isn't so much about adding new features as it is about refining the code in the Apple operating system.
Google's Chrome and Apple's Safari web browsers have continued to steal market share from their much larger rivals Internet Explorer and Firefox over the past six months, according to internal ZDNet.com.au statistics.
Microsoft's current Internet Explorer 8 marketing push continues to leave a bad lingering aftertaste.
Turns out that the "developer preview" of Google's latest creation, Google Wave, is not as open as one would expect, with the preview only being open to attendees of Google's I/O conference but there is another way to see it in action. And forget wanting to use IE6 with it.
A rash of creativity has overcome browser vendors recently in a completely unexpected place: the content of the new tab page.
I caved in. I had all intentions of pre-emptively spending my $900 government handout on a $700 HP netbook this weekend. But I was pwned by a shiny little MacBook in about the time it took white hat Charlie Miller to hack its upscale brother, the MacBook Air.
IE may be the quickest browser to load pages, but this is not a 100m dash; seems like someone has forgotten to tell Microsoft that there is another 300m of JavaScript to go until this race is over.
We cast an eye over Google Wave's developer preview to see the world of wavelets, blips and robots.
Two weeks after the release and one update to 10.6.1 later, it was time to upgrade from OS X 10.5 Leopard to OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. Just how hands-free and painless was this upgrade going to be?
Firefox 3.5 forges ahead with strong developer support, but most improvements for casual users will probably strike them as minor.
Mobile banking is so much easier with Made for iPhone websites. Luckily for Nokia owners, these pages are accessible from certain browsers other than the iPhone's Safari browser.
Is it out with the old and in with the new, or do you stick with the Devil you know? Only a tech death match can decide! iPhone versus Palm Pre, fight!
Test drive the latest interface enhancements and time-saving features for Safari, Apple's premier, cross-platform browser.
At the Digital Life Show in New York City, ZDNet executive editor David Berlind gets a demonstration of an iPhone-like browsing feature that Opera will be introducing into Opera Mini, a browser designed specifically for mobile phones.
Apple makes a bid for a larger slice of the browser market with a version of Safari for Windows, XP, and Vista.
Developers make good stress testers, and the initial Wave service has had a lot of testing in the last few months. We take a ride on the wave, which should be opening to a wider beta program at the end of September.
Intel Mac users will like Snow Leopard's smartly designed interface enhancements, and its Exchange support is a must-have (especially with Outlook for Mac on the way). With a ton of technological improvements, Snow Leopard is worth the AU$39 upgrade fee.
There's a lot to like in the first beta of Exchange 2010, from storage improvements to new high availability tools and better integration with the cloud, not to mention Outlook Web Access support for Firefox and Safari. But not everyone will be impressed by the lack of a 32-bit GUI management client.
The iPhone 3GS is faster and we appreciate the new features and extended battery life, but call quality and 3G reception still need improvement.
The Touch HD is a fantastic phone, if you can afford one. It out-performs every HTC phone previously and looks fantastic doing it.
