Oh my, things just keep on getting worse and worse if you’re an Android user who’s concerned about security.

Microsoft and its Windows Phone 7 have a big year ahead of themselves. Google and Apple currently have the mobile space all-but sewn up, and even old stalwarts like BlackBerry are struggling to compete with the new hotness that is iOS and Android.

Apple’s recent announcement that it currently holds more cash than anyone else has led to much discussion of late, and that discussion has even spawned some pictorial jabberings. As the internet is want to do when it has something as juicy as Apple to discuss, a few infographics have popped up to illustrate just how damn filthy rich the Cupertino outfit really is.

After waiting for approximately three months, owners of the iPhone 4S and iPad 2 rejoiced when hearing the news that iOS security researcher Pod2g and his development Dream Team had overcome all of the technical hurdles in front of them to get to a position where they could publicly distribute an untethered jailbreak for iOS 5. The ‘Corona’ untether had previously been released for owners of older A4 powered devices, but the lack of a usable exploit on the newer, dual-core A5 devices meant that the team had no way of injecting the necessary files.

Music is big business.

Google Maps and iOS devices have gone hand in hand ever since the original iPhone’s release back in 2007, and Apple recently signed a new deal extension with the search giant, giving iOS further access to Google’s Maps data. That isn’t to say that Google’s Maps are the only ones out there, and a new set of maps for the iPad show that Google isn’t the only one capable of putting together beautiful interactive maps for both Apple’s tablets and those of the Android variety.

Despite Apple maintaining a closed-source stance with its iOS mobile software, jailbreaks from the various dev-teams have allowed an abundance of useful, unregulated apps to be installed onto our beloved iDevices. Whilst the process of creating App Store and Cydia apps invariably fairly similar, there is much less structure and organization in the latter approach

If there’s one lingering criticism of our mobile browsers, it’s the sometimes difficult – oft impossible task that is downloading a simple file from the web. While most do manage, fairly easily, to store and open .pdf and .rar files plucked from the internet, it can sometimes be a tidbit hit-and-miss

Italian outfit ADR Studios, one of the most talented and creative concept-makers we’ve ever stumbled across, has thrown up yet another tasty concept we can only but wish were a real product. Depending on how long you’ve been following Redmond Pie, you may or may not recall the iWatch concept back in 2010, a real gem in design and innovation that seemed a perfect addition to the fruit company’s expansive product range.

We all know Apple’s rolling in the dough. It seems each time the company releases its quarterly results those numbers just keep on growing.
