Control your gadgets away from home via your iPhone with iRemocon
While not exactly the most creative name, iRemocon does exactly what you think it does – remotely control your gadgets via your iPhone. It only works with IR controlled gadgets, for example televisions, radios, air-con, etc. It’s a pretty straightforward system and doesn’t look complicated to set up.
Basically all you would have to do is connect the iRemocon device to the net, synch your remote controlled devices with it, install the iRemocon app onto your iPhone, and supposedly you’ll be all set and good to go. It sounds like a pretty handy device, for example on a hot summer’s day you could turn on the air conditioning while you’re on the way home so by the time you reach home, you house will be all nice and cool.
It could even double up as a possible security feature, for example while you’re out, you could turn on/off your stereo system at random intervals, so that potential burglars will think that somebody is at home and will stay away. The device is unfortunately only available in Japan and will retail for 26,800 Yen which roughly converts to $330.

iPhone 6S Prepares For September 18th Release Date
If you are on the lookout for either the iPhone 6S or the iPhone 6S Plus, then here is news for you – chances are pretty high that you can pick up either one, or perhaps even both if you are feeling fat in the pocket, this coming September 18th. First of all, there was a leaked internal memo from Vodafone alongside Japanese site ITHome and German tech experts Macerkopf claiming that the new iPhones 6S models will roll out this coming September 18th in their respective countries
With Japan, Germany and the UK being tier one Apple launch countries, this means that those living in the mentioned countries will receive the iPhones at the same time as folks living over in the US – traditionally speaking, of course. There really isn’t that much time left to wait, as it is less than a month away, and I am quite sure that the time will pass by sooner than you think.

iPad Air 3 Not Coming This Year According To Rumors
It looks like the folks over at Digitimes have come up with their own interpretation of things to come – that there will be no iPad Air 3 released, at least for this year. Digitimes has had their fair share of hits and misses in the past, so it would be best to take this rumor concerning the non-release of the iPad Air 3 in 2015 with a pinch of salt.
Digitimes also laid claim that the iPad mini 4 will not be as supercharged as some of the rumors that had been going around, as it will bring with it only small and incremental upgrades when compared to its predecessor, the iPad mini 3. This does not seem to bode well for fans of the compact tablet, taking into consideration how the iPad mini 3 itself was improved over its predecessor with a new Touch ID fingerprint reader.
Since Apple tends to roll out a new iPad in October, we will just have to sit tight and see whether this particular rumor has enough “legs” to run.
