Targeting Tech! Apple Ipad 2 Reuse and Recycling

Hello Blog Viewers,

I am curious, do you all have Ipad 2s, and if you do how recent have you bought them? Are any of you angry with your purchase after hearing news about the New Ipad coming out March 16th aka Tommorow?! Well for those who want a refund of some sort, be happy because Apple is started up their Reuse and Recycling program. Apple is willing to pay up to $320 to Ipad 2 owners for their Ipads depending on what model they have. For the cheapest 16GB WiFi model, one would get about $205 which is a very decent price. Then for the most expensive 64GB WiFi + 3G variant, one could get about $320. I believe that this is a very good program that Apple has because I guarantee many people want to get the New Ipad, especially those that only recently got an Ipad 2. For more information about this click the Engadget link below. As always thank you for reading and please do leave a comment!

TARGETING TECH! DO NOT UPDATE YOUR XBOX DASHBOARD – Yet!

So today I was reading an article on IGN, about the new Xbox 360 Dashboard Update. Apparently people have been having quite a few problems, such as bricking their 360s and not being able to connect to Xbox Live. Now, if I wasn’t able to connect to Xbox Live, I would be crying, how else am I going to be able to find out what games my friends are playing, and what games I should act like I know all about. That was a joke by the way, any who, I would suggest waiting a couple of days till Microsoft gets any launch day bugs fixed and anything else that will waste your time. Anyway, if you haven’t ever visited IGN I recommend going there for excellent live news on everything about VIDEO GAMES. As always thank you for reading, and I hope you have a nice day.

TARGETING TECH! : Supposed Cure for Iphone 4S Battery Crisis

So recently, I was hearing alot about how many people are complaining about the limited battery life of the new Iphone 4s. Apple later responded by saying it was their mobile operating system’s, iOS 5, fault. The recently have released a software update that is supposed to have fixed the problem. In my opinion if Apple’s new update does not work and people suffer with their phones, apple should give a full refund back to their customers for false advertising. However, if you are a Iphone fan I would not let this discourage of buying the Iphone 4S because it is still an amazing phone. I received this news on Apple’s software update at a site named Gizmodo. Gizmodo specializes in giving live news on various sorts of technology. I would give it a look if you are interested in knowing what is going on in the fast paced world of technology.
