Apple has announced that Java is deprecated as of the most recent update to OS X. This shot across the bow is getting some responses. To Jobs' claim that 'Sun (now Oracle) supplies Java for all other platforms,' James Gosling is quoted as saying that 'simply isn't true.' Much talk of a coming turf war is to be had. This certainly can't be unrelated to statements from Jobs recently covered on this website and is sure to make waves. Apple has enjoyed significant success recently accompanied by a widespread sense that they can do no wrong in business or design. However, is deprecating Java a mistake? It doesn't take much insight to connect the dots and see that Apple has starting marking friends and enemies relative to the increasingly heated fight for mobile and other platforms."

On Friday, Apple issued an official statement regarding the issue of preinstalled Adobe Flash on the freshly unveiled MacBook Air.
According to Apple, Flash will not come preinstalled on Macs as a way to best ensure that users will not be deprived of the latest version of Flash. Instead, Mac users are encouraged to download the latest from Adobe. Similarly, all future Macs will come without Adobe Flash pre-installed. Apple spokesman Bill Evans reportedly stated the following to Engadget:
Quote:
"We're happy to continue to support Flash on the Mac, and the best way for users to always have the most up to date and secure version is to download it directly from Adobe."

Cult Dreamcast game ChuChu Rocket! will be released for the iPhone, iPod Touch and in HD on the iPad "very soon", SEGA has announced.
The iPhone/iPad version will cost £2.99 / €3.99 from the App Store. The iPad version will set you back £3.99 / €5.49.
The mobile version has over 145 puzzles and 24 multiplayer levels for up to four players via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi.
The iPad version has an exclusive multiplayer battle feature that allows four players to play on one iPad.
ChuChu Rocket! – from Sonic creator Yuji Naka – was originally released in 1999 for SEGA's final home console the Dreamcast.
The game's existence on iDevices appears to be the result of you, the fans.
Last year SEGA revealed it was brainstorming ideas for iPhone and iPod Touch games and wanted to know what gamers fancied.
Ideas were to be gathered on Twitter, Facebook and on the SEGA forums and put to a panel. Requests included Streets of Rage, Golden Axe, Crazy Taxi, Outrun and... ChuChu Rocket!

Gaming appears to be most popular app genre for Apple's iPad, according to a recent survey by Nielsen.
While findings revealed that 32 per cent of iPad owners rather surprisingly claimed they were yet to download any Apps, 62 per cent of those who had revealed they're tried games.
In total, 38 per cent of the iPad owners surveyed online had downloaded games, making it the top paid App category.
However, only 400 iPad owners were questioned in total, as part of an online survey covering 5000 owners of tablet devices - also including Kindles and smartphones.
Game companies are fast taking advantage of the iPad's seven million worldwide sales to date, with yesterday seeing Zynga release a new version of Facebook titan Farmville for the iPad.
Like the earlier iPhone version, the title is free to play, microtransaction-funded and runs in a client independent of Facebook (though nonetheless requires an account).
"The iPad is a spectacular gaming device, and the new FarmVille app leverages its larger touch screen interface and enhanced graphics," said Zynga's president of studios Steven Chiang. "FarmVille on the iPhone was an instant hit and now we are giving people another Apple device to play on."
Meanwhile, Rovio studios have immediately leapt to the top of both the iPhone and iPad App Store charts with a new Hallowe'en-themed version of the ubiquitous Angry Birds.
Nielsen's iPad user survey also found that the audience was 65 per cent and 63 per cent under 35 years of age. 39 percent of those surveyed earned more than $80,000 per year.

Who knew a support thread on corporate WiFi login issues would lead to anything we'd care about? Cut to Google code's Android forums, where an anonymous Google engineer confirms that this problem will be patched in the "next major release" of Android, specifically version 2.3. So... does this mean Android 2.3 is the oft-discussed (and close on the horizon) Gingerbread? Not necessarily -- while possible, there isn't any indication to that effect, and logic doesn't arbitrarily equate the two. After all, recall that Eclair was both 2.0 and 2.1, so there would be some historical precedence to this 0.1 leap being nothing more than sprinkles on frozen yogurt.

It didn't take long for our jailbroken AppleTV's to get rocking with custom Apps. The first app to come to AppleTV is called nitoTV.
nitoTV is a front end application for the popular mplayer media player. Using perian and Apple's DVDPlayback.framework, users can create playlists and add files or folders of their choice.
So what else does NitoTV do? Well it's more than just a media player. Supposedly you can even use NitoTV to play nes, snes, genesis, game gear and gameboy advanced roms, view RSS feeds and 3-day Weather forecasts.
At this point, you should be able to play almost any media file type. However, the installation process might have the unexperienced scratching their head. You will be required to SSH the files over to your AppleTV.
Note: The current installer packages are NOT for AppleTV 2, but the original AppleTV.

Apple calls the new MacBook Air "the next generation of MacBooks," in an indication that they are planning on incorporating the innovative features of the refreshed model in all Apple laptops. Chief among these is the solid-state drive (SSD) flash storage that replaces the hard drive, cutting weight and extending battery life. Apple has telegraphed in a number of ways that the 'instant-on' capability of the MacBook Air and iPad will become standard on MacBooks - if not on all Macs - in the future.
"All notebooks will be like this someday," Jobs said on the stage yesterday, calling the MacBook Air "the future of the MacBook."

It's time to get Reckless with your iPhone! No, wait, don't do that, these things are expensive. It's actually time to get Reckless Racing for your iPhone. Yes, that's much safer.
Pixelbite's top-down rally racing game features multiple driving styles, and three game modes: "Dirt Rally," a time trial mode, and "Delivery," a sort of relay in which you pick up items on special tracks and drop them elsewhere. It's meant to evoke "classic" top-down racers, but without that free-spinning wheel we used to love to play with as we walked by the Super Off-Road machine in the arcade. Reckless Racing is on the App Store now for both iPhone and iPad.

Here's a blast from the past: Winamp, that mainstay media player of college dorms and LAN parties since time immemorial (er, 1997 or so) has made the leap from PC to handset with the release of Winamp for Android. This bad boy is available for Android 2.1 and up, and features a playback widget for the Android desktop and Last.fm integration. But that ain't all! If you install Winamp 5.59 beta on your PC, you can sync and manage your libraries via USB or WiFI. Pretty sweet! We only have one questions, really: will it still whip the llama's ass? Check out the QR code after the break (or search the Android Market) for the mobile app. Winamp 5.59 beta is available in the Winamp forums (More Coverage link, below).

Social games giant Zynga has launched its flagship title, FarmVille, for iPad.
It was already available for iPhone, but that version has been updated to be a Universal app, which runs at a higher resolution on iPad.
"The iPad is a spectacular gaming device, and the new FarmVille app leverages its larger touch screen interface and enhanced graphics," says president of studios Steven Chiang.
Zynga has also dished out some stats on the game's performance so far on the App Store. Although not downloads or monthly active users.
Instead, the company says that people are playing FarmVille for iPhone in 85 different countries, and receive more than 500,000 gifts a day.

Mobile games publisher Gameloft has launched its first comic-book app on the App Store, to promote its new game Star Battalion.
Both game and app went live this week. The app introduces people to the people and pilots of the Star Battalion universe.
(A precis: intergalactic fratricidal warfare. Which is always nice.)
The comic-book app is free to download, and has the high production values that have become Gameloft's hallmark on the App Store.
Meanwhile, the Star Battalion game is also notable, as it's the first Gameloft game to tie into Apple's Game Center community.
Gameloft isn't the only iOS firm using comic strips to promote its games. Independent developer Bolt Creative recently launched a comic and comic-app based on its popular Pocket God game.

The investment arm of chipmaker giant Intel has spent $3 million on OpenFeint, the third-party alternative to Apple’s own Game Center.
The mobile social gaming platform, built by Aurora Feint, has so far reached $12 million in external funding.
Intel’s newest investment may be a signal, perhaps, that Apple’s official alternative to platforms such as OpenFeint may not enjoy the kind of dominance that Apple is used to.
As well as being a popular developer choice on iOS devices, Aurora Feint’s OpenFeint platform is now becoming a success on Google’s Android OS.
Intel told Techcrunch it bought Aurora Feint because of the potential of the social game space, which OpenFeint quantifiably has succeeded in.

Apple has announced that its App Store has now passed the seven billion downloads milestone, up from 6.5 billion at the start of September.
That means the store is currently doing 10 million downloads every day - more than Android Market, BlackBerry App World and Android Market combined.
(There's some debate over which of these stores include updates in their totals and which don't, it should be noted).

Rovio launches Halloween spin-off, but burns bridges with Chillingo.
More than three million people have now downloaded the Android version of Angry Birds since its release late last week.
Google announced the milestone on its mobile advertising blog. The company is providing the in-game ads for the Android version, which is free to download.
digg
"Rovio is excited about the partnership with Google's AdMob as we explore new business models that will allow us to maximize reach across mobile platforms," says Rovio's Peter Vesterbacka.
Besides standard ads, Rovio will also be using Google subsidiary AdMob's 'House Ad' service to plug other games and products within Angry Birds. That will include ads for its soon-to-launch plush toys.
Back on iPhone, Rovio has launched a spin-off game for its feathery franchise: Angry Birds Halloween.
The game includes 45 new levels, as well as suitably spooky music and scenery. It's being sold for $0.99 on iPhone and $1.99 on iPad.
However, it seems that Rovio's relationship with the original publisher of Angry Birds, Chillingo, is well and truly over.
It has self-published the Halloween game, and having spent much of last night tweeting to the world that Angry Birds was not part of the EA/Chillingo acquisition, the developer made its position clear in an interview with TechCrunch.
"We only did the first iPad/iPhone integration with Chillingo and aside from that we’ve published everything ourselves," says Vesterbacka.
We will not use Chillingo again... You don’t need publishers."
Well, you might not once you have a monster hit like Angry Birds - although we sense that now it's owned by EA, Chillingo may take a harder line on IP ownership in its contractual negotiations with developers.

The Mac is set to get its own version of the App Store, Apple has announced.
MCV reports that CEO Steve Jobs revealed a Mac App Store would launch "within 90 days", during an OS X Lion preview event earlier today.
Although no titles have been confirmed as of yet, Apple promises it will offer software made specifically for the platform.
The interface and functionality will be very similar to the regular App Store, allowing users to download and re-download software onto all Macs that they use.
Like on the iPhone, iPod and iPad, apps will autosave and resume when relaunched, install onto the dock automatically and update autonomously.
Apple announced that developers could start submitting products in November and can expect the same 70/30 revenue split as on the iOS.
So, these seem to be salad days for Mac gaming. Valve launched its popular Steam portal for the platform back in May, helping the service to its best ever year.

A holiday tradition? Making things out of gingerbread, and Google is doing its part to keep that practice alive according to a report stating Android 3.0 is set to hit some tablets this December. Those will just be early samples destined only to light up the eyes of engineers who've been very, very good this year, but the rest of us naughty boys and girls will get to see those slates when they launch to the public in January. We hear there's a little electronics show happening that time of year, and supposedly HTC, Samsung, and Motorola will be showing their Gingerbread tablets there, amongst others (but not Lenovo, apparently). We can't wait to get a taste.
Update: Thanks to James for pointing out that it's still unclear whether 3.0 is going to be Gingerbread or, indeed, the truly tablet-minded Honeycomb release we're really waiting for. This report states specifically that 3.0 is hitting tablets in December, with 4.0 later in 2011. Is that Gingerbread and Honeycomb, or Honeycomb and Ice Cream? Also, is anyone else hungry?

Hoo boy, our tipster was spot on with this one, Apple's adding an 11.6-inch sibling to its newly redesigned 13.3-inch MacBook Air. It'll have a dual-core 1.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo CPU (upgradeable to 1.6GHz), 1366 x 768 resolution, and a $999 starting price for the 64GB SSD model, with the 128GB version setting you back $1,199. It carries over the aluminum unibody construction from the 13-incher, along with the same 2GB or 4GB DDR3 RAM options and NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics, but has to settle for a briefer 5-hour battery life.

You still won't be able to do much beyond the command line just yet, but folks looking to jailbreak their new Apple TV can now do so with relative ease thanks to the Dev-Team's PwnageTool 4.1, which has just been made available for download. Of course, a command line today only means that we're pretty much guaranteed to see some more interesting things tomorrow -- hit up the source link below to get started.

Following mounting speculation earlier today, EA has confirmed its planned purchase of mobile game publisher Chillingo.
Chillingo is best known for iPhone hit Angry Birds (which it did not develop), and is currently topping the App Store charts once again with Cut The Rope.
Sources suggested to Reuters that EA will "pay under $20 million in cash plus other undisclosed considerations."
"By acquiring Chillingo, EA Mobile is increasing its market leadership on the Apple platform as well as reaffirming its position as the world's leading wireless entertainment publisher," said EA spokeswoman Holly Rockwood.
This is EA's second recent purchase in the online space, having acquired Facebook studio PlayFish for $250 million just over a year ago.

So the Pre 2 has been announced for SFR in France and Verizon in the States, along with an unlocked model for developers... but so far, we'd only seen one of the three in the FCC. Well, here are the other two: on the left, the P102EWW, and on the right, the P102UNA. Palm's naming convention is a little strange, so it probably bears explaining again -- the "P102" tells you that it's a Pre 2, while "EWW" indicates CDMA and "UNA" indicates North American GSM / UMTS. From the UNA model's filing, it would seem there isn't any AWS capability on board, so users of T-Mobile are going to have to plod along at 2G speeds if they want to play ball. You know, Murphy's Law and all.
