Reeder for iPhone skirts death, updated with Feedbin and standalone RSS support
Popular app Reeder for iPhone has been updated with Feedbin and standalone RSS feed support, before Google Reader closes down for good on 1 July. Reeder once relied on Google Reader to populate itself with feeds but it, like many apps, has found other solutions to keep on living. Feedbin is one of the solutions RSS users have been drawn to since Google dropped the awful news. It offers a slick user interface for managing and viewing feeds for $ 2 a month. Like logging in to Google Reader on the Reeder app, you simply need your Feedbin user name and password to get going. The standalone RSS feature of Reeder is a little different. You can either copy and paste feeds in manually, or until 1 July, use your Google Reader log-in to import them. It’s worth noting individual feeds will not be synced between the Reeder apps.

Apple has started the sale of iPad min in November 2012 and the sale was on the role, however if the latest reports are to be believed then Apple has changed its focus from selling iPad mini.

Telephoto Lens for iPad Mini: Photojojo’s 12x optical zoom
With the new Smartphones and tabs, multiple devices are getting integrated into one – a mobile + digital camera + video camera + decent computing. 8 Megapixel cameras on Smartphones are common these days. Although the picture quality does not match a dedicated digital camera with optics, for most occassions, the smartphone cameras are equally great.

In both cases, this accessory will greatly improve the camera capabilities of the 9.7 inch iPad and its iPad Mini.Its worth noting that Photojojo’s Telephoto Lens for iPhone is available since 2011 at a price of $ 35.

Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 Review
Samsung has had a place in the mid-size tablet market for a while now, and their newest piece of machinery takes things to a new level. The Galaxy Note 8.0 is the happy medium between the company’s Galaxy Note 10.1 and the 5.5-inch Galaxy Note II, and we first took a look at the new device during Mobile World Congress back in February. It comes with the infamous S Pen, as well as a quad-core processor to keep things humming along nicely.
