Cupertino, California (The Adobo Chronicles) – There are two things one would find in every Filipino home: a rice cooker and a karaoke machine. Either one or both could probably explain why Filipinos are some of the most musically-talented in the world.
Well, Apple is cashing in on this phenomenon when it launches its iPad Water in the Philippines beginning September 9. The Cupertino-based company has chosen the Philippines as its test market for this new exciting product.
Now, even the most shy but musically-talented Filipinos will have no more excuse to not showcase their talent, albeit in the shower.
The new iPad Water comes with a waterproof cover and an installed karaoke app that would make singing in the shower a breeze and an absolute delight. It automatically connects to the Internet where one could easily download the latest hit songs- from Taylor Swift to Bruno Mars. The shower head automatically converts into a microphone through bluetooth technology.
The new iPad Water will retail for PH 9,000 (pesos) or approximately $200.
Cupertino, California (The Adobo Chronicles) – The official unveiling of the new iPhone 6 is not until September 9, but Apple has given The Adobo Chronicles a rare, exclusive sneak peek at the new device.
Our verdict:
The new iPhone 6 is thinner, wider, more colorful and comes with the longest battery life ever in the history of mobile devices. It’s easy to use (even a one year-old toddler can learn to use it immediately) and share. If lost or damaged, the device will be immediately replaced – no need to buy Apple Care (extended warranty).
Other great features include: color-coded bookmark, voice-activated password protection and cloud-less file storage. What’s more, it comes with the power of a bookbook!
Overall, it is the best mobile device ever invented. Here is an an exclusive video.
Redmond, Washington (The Adobo Chronicles) – Microsoft’s Bill Gates has announced that his foundation has awarded a $100,000 grant to a university in Australia to research and produce skin-like condoms as a way to encourage more people to have safer sex, thus reducing the incidence of HIV/AIDS and other sexually-transmitted diseases.
Gates said he understands that the overwhelming objection to the use of condoms is the fact that sex partners can’t feel the true sensation they otherwise would get from unprotected sex. The skin-like condoms are expected to be ultra thin while still being break-free.
Reacting to the news, Microsoft’s main competitor Apple said that it will purchase the skin-like condoms in bulk to use in the manufacture of its next generation iPhone and iPads. Apple CEO Tim Cook said that the skin-like condoms would make for effective and durable film for its iPhone and iPad screens. “They would make touch screen technology a true state-of-the-art while still affording mobile device users the ability to feel the natural sensation of the finger touch,” Cook said.
