It seems things have taken a turn for the worst for Apple, just days after announcing stellar iPad sales.

Yesterday at Twitter’s Chirp Conference, the company’s first ever developers conference, CEO Evan Williams announced a new, somewhat monumental feature: Places. As you may have guessed, Places allows you to share your location with others (with your permission of course).

Remember the JooJoo? Oh, you don’t? It’s OK, I’ll refresh your memory.
The JooJoo is the fabled Chrunchpad under a different name, and Fusion Garage, the company who makes the JooJoo, now sells the device.
Last month, due to issues with the capacitive touchscreens, Fusion Garage had to push back the ship date to March 25th. However, the delay’s given the [...]
