Having written about the realms of US politics (The American President, the frankly peerless West Wing) and then TV production (Studio 60), Aaron Sorkin, who for my money is as gifted and talented a writer as there is out there, now seems to be setting his sights on the various icons of the IT world.

Steve Jobs, the co-founder and face of Apple, has died at the young age of just 56. Truly a visionary, this incredibly saddening news has been felt across the globe, with politicians and CEOs in Jobs’ rival technology companies sending out heartfelt statements lamenting the tragic loss of such a brilliant man at such a [...]
Sounds like we might have a date for the announcement of the iPhone 5 people! News reports have just bounced around the interwebs that Tim Cook (the new CEO of Apple who took over from Steve Jobs last month) will hold a media event on October 4th. What isn’t confirmed yet (and probably wont be [...]
If you think Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo have the console war all wrapped up, there could be a massive shock on the horizon. EA’s VP Patrick Soderlund said he believes Apple would have “a relatively good chance to succeed” should they decide to wade into the gaming mass-market. There have long been whispered rumours of [...]
As massive fans of both cinema and video games, it’s not untrue to say we’re collectively geekgasming all over the place at the thought of how great Telltale Games’ Back to the Future games could be. And now the first trailer has arrived, it’s only served to excite us even more. Great Scott! The developer [...]
Our stateside readers are in for a treat.

While the iPad’s success was far from a failure (3 million sold in its 80 days), there were numerous quibbling niggles that meant a lot of iPhone-rs would hold off until Apple released a second incarnation. Well it appears the second generation iPad will be hitting shops pretty soon – and it could just be [...]
Apple have exclusively premiered the first trailer and teaser poster for Summit Entertainment’s ace-looking science fiction film Source Code. Directed by Duncan Jones, his follow-up to the BAFTA-award winning and critically lauded Moon, Source Code stars Jake Gyllenhaal, Vera Farmiga, Jeffrey Wright, Michelle Monaghan, Russell Peters and Michael Arden. A soldier (Gyllenhaal) becomes part of [...]
Although the ability to watch films on phones or pocket sized devices has been around for a while, the choice to watch a film on a phone again became a hot topic following the announcement of the new iPhone. Speaking to friends/film lovers I was pretty shocked at how many said that they were more [...]
Every week Apple offer a film for rental at a discounted price of 99p on iTunes. For several weeks, the selections were pretty poor. Then last week saw a quality jump, with Matthew Vaughn’s Layer Cake. Would this week continue the improvement? The answer would be a resounding yes, as to coincide with the DVD [...]
Last week, presumably due to a technical error, there was no 99p rental on iTunes. Now i’ll be honest, based on the suspect selections of recent weeks, it was nice to get a week off.
