This week I take a look at MoneyWiz, an amazing new personal finance app available on both iPhone and iPad. "Really? Another damn expense app?" I hear you say. Yes, but I can promise you that this is the last one, I really have found what I've been looking for since I became so obsessive about recording my expenses. So before you click back to Pinterest, or continue importing your photos from Instagram before Facebook uses them without your permission, ...

Rumours, gotta love 'em. This Chinese site claims that an iPad Mini is on its way come the third-quarter 2012. It'll be priced from US$249 to US$299, apparently. The site, NetEase claims that a mini iPad will launch to "attack" the incoming Windows tablets and bases its rumours on "Taiwan media reports". The rumour was mainly brought to life when sources discovered that Samsung was supplying Apple with “new PLS-based LCD technology for smaller iPads.” These snippets of info come ...

Meizu has unveiled a quad-core dream machine powered by Android 4.0. This smartphone, the Meizu MX, is powered by the Samsung Exynos A9 CPU and is scheduled for release in June 2012. Specifications are suitably meaty for a phone of this caliber. The MX rocks a 292 PPI screen (still woefully under the 326 PPI of the iPhone 4/4S so burn, suckers) a 8-megapixel camera, 32 or 64GB storage options and Meizu's own priority OS overlay, called "Flyme". Come June, the Meizu ...

Sweet baby Jesus, this could be it. Samsung has sent invites bearing the words, "Come and meet the next Galaxy". The event is set to take place at an undetermined location 3 May. Minus a few splashes of blue and white oil-paint, there is precious little information on the invitation, with Samsung being even cagier than Apple was with its new iPad launch invite. The event will fall under the "Samsung Mobile Unpacked" banner, which is a big deal as ...

New Tricks The Cross Gauge is a power bar shared between both of your fighters; plain and simple. You build it up by landing hits, or blocking successfully. The bar is divided into three sections, and different special moves will use one bar, two bars or all three, depending on their strength. The special moves are stylish, and the damage satisfying. The power bar is a welcome addition, and means that you can’t unleash your most powerful attacks all of the ...

The Pebble Watch is an instant hit. It’s a watch, injected with e-paper magic, filled with apps and is “infinitely customisable” as its developers call it. Users on startup funding site Kickstarter.com quickly backed the project, and blew past the US$100 000 goal by over US$1.6-million. Better than a flying car When we dreamed of gadget futures, the simple things came to mind: paper thin computers you can hold in your hand, flying cars and watches that talk to you. The Pebble Watch ...

All the reports about Malware on Android got you paranoid about your phone’s security? Well there might be an answer, and it comes from an unlikely source: Boeing. Yup, that’s right the company that builds planes, helicopters, and satellites is joining the smartphone party with a high security encrypted device. According to National Defnese Magazine, the phone is near the end of its development cycle and is set to launch later this year. Be warned though, the phone ...

Hey, did you notice anything missing in all the pictures of the models Google used to announce that Project Glass was going to be a reality? No it wasn’t “any semblance of self-respect”. Geez. It was prescription glasses. That’s a little odd, especially given that around 75% of adults in the US are thought use visual assistance of some kind. Google apparently noticed and has issued a spec detailing how your Project Glass specs will eventually fit comfortably over your new ...
