Apple Lining Up iPad 3 Suppliers in Face of Increasing Number of Competitors

 

Digitimes reports on several Taiwan-based companies that have been picked to supply parts for the upcoming iPad 3.

Quote:

Taiwan-based IC design houses Novatek Microelectronics, Richtek Technology, Capella Microsystems (Taiwan) and Integrated Memory Logic (iML) have reportedly entered the supply chain for iPad 3, according to industry sources.

The exact companies aren't likely of much interest to our readers, but Digitimes also claims that Apple seems more willing to use integrated circuits from Taiwan-based manufacturers "as it is adjusting the cost structure for iPad tablets in order to compete with an array of tablet PCs to be launched by rivals in the second half of 2011."

It's not entirely clear what this will mean to the customer in the end. Lower cost parts may mean less expensive iPads, but it may simply offer more capabilities at the same price. Apple's roadmap for the iPad 3 remains unclear as there have been numerous conflicting reports about the iPad 3's capabilities and release date.

Apple Paves Mac OS X Lion Rollout with 10.6.8 Update

Apple is preparing its users for the arrival of Mac OS X Lion next month with a software update to Snow Leopard users. The 10.6.8 software update is now available to all users running Mac OS X Snow Leopard, and includes general operating system fixes alongside last-minute setups to roll out Lion through the Mac App Store.

The Mac App Store will be the only way to get Mac OS Lion, which will be available in in July priced at just $30 for registered Macs. Apple says the 10.6.8 update will "enhance the Mac App Store to get your Mac ready to upgrade to Mac OS X Lion," and the download weighs in at 275MB via the Software Download, or 1.01GB directly from Apple.

Mac OS X Lion promises to bring more than 250 new features to Mac users, including multitouch gestures, full-screen apps, the Mac App Store, and improvements to core apps. Lion will also introduce two new features designed to make running your Mac easier: Mission Control, a new, consolidated view of everything on a Mac; and Launchpad, an iOS-like app launcher. (See the 10 Roaring New Features in Mac OS X Lion.)

The 10.6.8 software update also addresses a pesky problem some Mac users have ran into over the past few weeks: Mac Defender, a fake antivirus program that tries to trick you into installing it on your system.

Once it's running on your system, Mac Defender will try to trick you into handing over your credit card information and claims that apps such as the Terminal are infected, in order for you to buy the fake antivirus program. In 10.6.8, Apple says, the OS can identify and remove known variants of Mac Defender, in addition to killing earlier variants of the malware through a software update in May.
