When Camera+ was released again after a few month hiatus, I was a little skeptical about just how well it would do in a sea of photography apps. Of course, it has some big name backing – I’m sure every photographer out there who belongs on a social network of some kind knows who Lisa…
We’ve heard a lot of rumors regarding the second generation Apple iPad now, or the iPad 2, and we have another to throw onto the pile. Last month, it was said that the next generation iPad would be getting GSM and CDMA radios. According to a more recent rumor, there will be three different types…
