New Cities Added to 3D maps in the Latest iOS Beta
Yesterday Apple released iOS 6 beta 4 which notably drops Google’s YouTube application and also adds some new tweaks. But the main highlight of iOS 6 is the 3D maps and lately Apple has added new cities from North America and Europe to its Maps app’s 3D feature.
Announced as a part of WWDC 2012 in June, Apple will ditch Google maps in favor of their own mapping service. Apple’s maps comes with 3D mode and shows highly detailed view of some of the selected cities like Chicago, Sacramento, Denver, San Francisco, Copenhagen, Las Vegas, and Sydney to name a few.
Now, Apple has increased the list of supported cities. The new cities include:
-
USA: Boston, New Orleans, Houston, Portland, Phoenix, Philadelphia, Dallas, Atlanta
-
France: Lyon
-
England: Birmingham, Manchester
-
Canada: Toronto

Windows Phone overtakes iPhone in the Smartphone Market Share race
1 year ago
According the guys at Emerce, Windows Phone Tango handsets in China which was launched 2 months back has surpassed the market share of iPhone and now it already has a 7% market share, ahead of iPhone which currently has only 6%.
According to Michel van der Bel, “Our smartphone and tablet-pc are hybrid, making them suitable for the consumer, but also easy to insert within an existing company infrastructure. This will allow us to better anticipate the consumerization of IT than many competitors. “
But Android still dominates the market share with around 69%. With Windows 8 release in the pipeline, Microsoft has really a great thing to show in the smartphone and tablet market. Android is no doubt the most reached OS on the globe, iOS which is best known for its eco system but Windows Phone with its unique Metro tile UI is gaining a critical appeal among the smartphone geeks, even Steve Woznaik has praised the UI. The only thing which Windows Phone lags is the number of apps which may increase once the market share is increased.
With this it seems there is lot of pressure on Apple to release the new iPhone which is already rumored in the market with iPhone 5, considering the bigger screen, LTE feature and of course the new iOS 6. Apple really needs to come up with new design because Android already have great ecosystem in term of Screen Size and resolution, and now even Windows Phone 7 is giving the tough fight in China market. I am really curious to see who is going to lead the race but it seems Windows Phone clearly at second position in China.
