CBS New York reports that 83-year-old Evelyn Paswall is suing Apple after breaking her nose on a glass door at the company’s Manhasset, New York, Retail Store. The octogenarian has requested a total of $1 million from the Cupertino company, which includes punitive damages for negligence, and medical expenses.
Unveiled earlier this month, the new Apple TV brought with it two major changes – support for 1080p video and a “simpler, refined user interface”. But it would appear that not everybody is a fan of the UI – according to former Apple Software Engineer Michael Margolis, it’s based on designs that Steve Jobs “tossed out” five years ago!

Air Display for iOS is quite possibly one of the best things you can spend £6.99 ($9.99) on. It’s a simple app that turns your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch (though it works best on the iPad) into a wireless secondary display for your Mac, that connects to your machine over Wi-Fi.
While reaction to the new iPad has been overwhelmingly positive, a number of owners have taken to Apple’s Support forums to express concerns about their device feeling warm after prolonged use, especially in the lower right corner.
In a press release issued by the company, Apple has announced that sales of the new iPad have topped three million since its launch last Friday the 16th of March, making it the “strongest iPad launch yet”.
During a conference call held earlier today, Apple CEO Tim Cook announced plans to launch a quarterly dividend of $2.65 per share, and revealed that the company’s board of directors has authorised a $10 billion share repurchase program.
One month on from announcing OS X Mountain Lion, Apple has released the second preview version for developers. Besides a number of bug fixes, developer preview 2 includes Safari tab syncing, Twitter notifications, and contact access requests.
