Apple just released the GM (Golden Master) candidate for developers. I downloaded and tested the new iOS 4 yesterday on my iPhone 3G 16GB. I skipped the betas as it’s currently my only phone and some of the betas were reported to render the iPhone pretty unstable.
This final release of the new iPhone OS 4 (now called iOS 4 as its range of target devices has been extended to iPhone, iPod and iPad) works fine and stable on my old iPhone 3G. I still can’t record videos and have to pass the multitasking feature due to lack of CPU power.

Just saw the new iMac in the video ad on Apple’s home page. The highest spec machine will house a 2.66 GHz Intel Core i5 Quad Core CPU and all the memory and storage you’ll ever need in a 27-inch display. Wow, I definitely need this!
The 21.5-inch models and the 27-inch 3.06 GHz Core 2 Duo iMac are already available from $1200 to $1700. The Quad Core iMac starts shipping in November 2009.

Have tried the iPhone OS 3.0 Beta 5 for a couple of days now and am not too impressed. Tethering, Copy/Paste and A2DP were the main features I wanted to use early. Copy and Paste work.

12 Mac apps for $39 instead of $602 available for 14 days only
Yippie! Just got my MacHeist 3 Bundle for $39. Actually I only paid $31 thanks to my bundle discounts I got during my mission unlocks. And I can make use of most of the 12 apps.
Some of the apps will get unlocked as soon as some goals are reached. 25% of all sales will go to charity. There are 10 charity organizations which will get a share of your money or you can pick one from the list that will get the whole of your share.
The MacHeist 3 Bundle reveal show was hosted by Chris Pirillo, Veronica Belmont and Lisa Bettany. I watched it live and it was fun but also awfully long – I was tired and was already on my way to bed when iCal reminded me of the show…
