iDygest: Griffin PartyDock Will Allow You to Play iOS Games on Your TV

http://dygest.com

From: Macworld, iLounge, TUAW, CultofMac, Pad Gadget.

The iPad and iPhone offer a number of ways to get social while gaming, from Bluetooth or Wi-Fi fragging to split-screen, cut-fruit competition. But Griffin is looking to turn Apple's latest gadgets into all-out gaming hardware consoles with a new dock the company announced on Friday. 1

The wall-powered PartyDock connects to a TV using included composite cables or with user-supplied component cables, and also allows the remote to control video, picture, and audio playback. Curiously, the PartyDock's user manual makes no reference to support for the iPod touch or any older iPhone model, carrying only "Made for iPad and iPhone" badges. 2

The PartyDock will let up to four people play a game together with four individual remotes on a single iPhone 4 or iPad connected to your TV. 3

iDygest: Apple Dumps Design Firm SurfaceInk Due to Potential Tablet Threat

http://dygest.com

From: Geek.com, into Mobile, VentureBeat, MacRumors, Edible Apple, 9 to 5 Mac.

Apple and design firm SurfaceInk parted ways after the latter dared showcase a 12.1-inch slate prototype of its own at a consumer electronics show in June, the New York Times reported Friday. 1

Apple, who can easily be argued as having cornered the tablet computer market with its iPad, has severed ties with SurfaceInk, a company who has been working with Apple for 10 years. 2

SurfaceInk founder and CEO Eric Bauswell told the NYT that the working relationship with the companies fell apart because of "Apple's growing awareness of our turnkey capabilities" - its product design business for clients. 3

The move comes as SurfaceInk has increased the availability of its "Turn-key" services that see it design and build entire products for sale to other companies. 4
