Current Events In Technology;
 
 
 
iPhone 5:
 
The release of the iPhone 5 was less then a month ago. The phone took less then one hour to sell out on Apple.com, it even sold out in all stores across the country in just a few hours. More than  a month later its hard to find a new iPhone.
 
New things;
 
-  uses aluminum on the back instead of all glass
-Apple doubled the iPhone’s RAM to 1GB and added the new A6 chipset
- taller screen
 
 
Google:
 
The owners of many French newspapers are in favor of the tax, believing their revenue and copyrights are compromised when Google's search results display their content. French Culture Minister Aurelie Filippetti seems to agree. She told a parliamentary commission it is "a tool that it seems important to me to develop."
 
Google says in the letter that it "cannot accept" such a move, and consequently would be forced to stop referencing French sites.

  1. It is definitely hectic for all of the iPhone users out there! Seems like the iPhone 5 was just wiped off the face of the Earth as soon as you go to buy it!
    And I'm really surprised about Google not referencing some French sites. I wonder if the tax is really that high?
