Apple has set a media event for Sept. 1 and we’re sure to see some cool new iOS products. Could we see a new iPod Touch, Apple TV and iPhone? I’d say we’ll definitely see two out of the three, as the fall event is generally when the company shows off its new iPod lineup.…
If you “got get drunk,” have we got an app for you. The Bartab app is launching this Thursday (August 26) and the Apple iPhone and Android program will enable you to send vouchers for real-life drinks for only $1. The concept is simple: use the app to buy a drink for a friend for…

Boost Mobile customers can get happy as the International Connect plan has been cut right in half. To qualify, you have to be signed up for Boost Mobile’s unlimited monthly plan, but instead of paying $10 for the ability to call internationally, it’s now only $5.
