iPhone 5: 15 most-wanted features

According to CNET apple goes ahead and releases the iPhone 4S.

Now that everybody's gotten over that development (or at least most people have), I have no choice but to go ahead and update this most-wanted list because, well, a lot of you are already looking past the 4S as you continue to hold out for the true iPhone 5.
So, what's new? Well, with the release of the iPhone 4S, Apple did include some features I was hoping would be in the iPhone 5, so the list is now shorter: it's been culled from 20 down to 15 features, although that could change in the coming months. I've also thrown in a couple new items, one involving "wireless" charging. (Note: I originally posted this column the day after the iPhone 4 launched, which is why you see a lot of comments dating back to June of last year--but they're fun to read).
As a reminder, the 15 items in the list are ordered from least important to most in a reverse countdown. I've also included what I think are the odds of Apple actually implementing each request. As always, feel free to agree or disagree with me and make your own suggestions (and to post your own ordered wish list).



iPad’s native Skype app delayed




Almost two months ago we were promised the release of the native Skype application for the iPad. Well, it was a success… almost!
The Skype app was released today but, after a very short time, it was removed – the explanation was that its release was “premature”. Yet, we have been assured that the removal would be temporary.
Even if the application was quickly removed, user had enough time to try it and give feedback. So, here it is:
- The application works over Wi-Fi and 3G and it also makes possible the chat during the video call
- Conversations are clean from the audio point of view and video is smooth, with few freeze-frames
- Of course, the main advantage for the conversation is the iPad’s big screen, which allow the conversations to be “seen” more clearly and very well defined
- Among the person you have the video call with, you can also see yourself in the same window
- You can use the iPad both in portrait or landscape mode
- There is also a dial option of your Skype Online Number
At the end, Skype promised to come back soon with a new application’s UI for the iPad – will we be amazed once again?

Cloud gaming with OnLive

Announcement of the launching – 22nd of September, in UK – brings OnLive officially in Europe! The event will take place at the Eurogamer Expo, in London, and it promised to reveal a package of over 100 new games for games devourers.

Let’s take a short look of what does cloud gaming actually mean for OnLive:

- Easy access from anywhere

- Gamers can play from any device: PC, mac, TV or any tablet

- Users don’t have to hold an up-to-date system configuration to play a “last generation game”, because their system is just an interface of the game.

The game is actually played in real time, on the OnLive’s powerful servers, within its datacenters. It will be needed an OnLive system which adapts games to run on the TVs

- There is access to free instant demo-games for you to play or for you to watch as others play, with the possibility of voice chat

- No more game-downloading, no further need of disks or any other special hardware

- Facebook integration.

Broadband is a key-factor regarding video quality and the required speed is 2Mbps.

The issue that came out in USA was also raised in UK – the delay. This is caused by lag and latency, which was officially recognized by the CEO of OnLive (Steve Perlman) to be 35-40ms, though in the US there were found played games at 200ms latency.

If you want to play a game, you can just rent it for a short time, buy it for unlimited play time, or pay an amount of money for 3 days, 5 days or a month of game access. But if you can make it to the event, OnLive promised to give thousands of Game Systems to the participants for free.
