iPhone 4S announced

On 4th October 2011 the next generation iPhone was announced. It is called the iPhone 4S and the operating system it runs on is called iOS5 which gets released on 12th October 2011. iOS 5 is going to be available for the latest iPads, iPhones and iPods. Anyway, new features on the iPhone 4S are a Twitter integrated and faster system, an 8mp camera (which is better than the iPhone 4's 5mp camera) and HD video recoding.
A new voice operated program called Siri is also in the iPhone 4S. Basically you say a command like ''what is the weather today'' and it the intelligent assistant will get things done just by asking. You can even ask Siri to read aloud your messages for you and organise events in your calender!
Apple are also launching a cards app which lets you create a card (e.g birthday card) and then you can send it off to be printed and delivered all by the touch of a button on your Apple device. Goodbye Moonpig!
Many poeople claimed that the next iPhone would have a bigger screen however the device stays the same size!
Apple also announced in this presentation that there are going to be 2 major upgrades for the iPod nano and that they are going to make the iPod touch in white! Apparently the next iPod touch is also going to be under £130!
The iPhone 4S pricing system works like this: (2 year contract) 8GB - $199, 16GB -$299 and 64GB - $399.

Airbrushing

Airbrushing, it is something that we see and hear of every day. It is in newspapers, magazines and websites. But what actually is it. In this detailed article I will tell you exactly what airbrushing is. Airbrushing is used by media companies which want to sell a product or make somebody look better. We all know that nobody is perfect, but media companies try their best to make people look spotless. When advertising a skin care product companies could air brush their models to make it look like the product actually made a huge difference to how someone looked. A few years ago there was a campaign to stop airbrushing because it had gone too far and it was giving people false impressions. More recent though, last July an L'Oreal advert was banned because the model had been too airbrushed.
During the Royal Wedding period ‘GRAZIA’ magazine admitted to airbrushing a photo of Kate Middleton. They started with the photo on the right and airbrushed William out. They also made her slimmer. “Media are fuelling eating disorders” claim psychiatrists as teenagers are eating less because of peer pressure from the media to have a small waist.

Torchwood: The End of Miracle Day

On Thursday 15th September 2011 it was the last episode of Torchwood: Miracle day.
To be honest I wasn't expecting that much from it as I thought the rest of the series was slow moving and completely irrelevant to the big picture however the last episode was amazing. It has left Torchwood open for another series which could include Rex. It also closed some loose ends however left the series on a big cliff hanger.
Anyway, what I was saying earlier about how some episodes have been completely irrelevant in the bigger picture, the 2nd episode was unessential. It also had nothing to do with anything, also that episode with Angelo. Apparently he knew something about the miracle, he didn't tell us anything.
All in all though it has been a good series and I hope they do another one. If they do though they should format it like series 1&2, so instead of having 10 episodes with the same story line they have 13 separate episodes about different stuff. Also, please get the original Torchwood theme tune back!

The Apprentice: The Final

Tonight is the final of the apprentice 2011. The Wyvern's review will be on the website by Monday night with facts about the series and interviews with fans. My guess is that Tom is going to win because Lord Sugar has a soft spot for him however I think he will struggle in the interviews tonight. I don't think that he is that good with the words!
