Are you an avid Apple Watch user who also happens to be a huge Fallout fan? If so, you are in luck! A clever designer (named Neven Mrgan) was able to create a fake Fallout PIP-Boy background image that will work on your Apple Watch! While the time is actually functional, unfortunately, the device still can't actually tell you your stats or personal inventory. It looks like we will have to wait a few hundred years and survive a Nuclear war for us to get that functionality.

Seriously though, if you want to "covert" your Apple Watch into a faux PIP-Boy, then just click on the image source link below. Also, don't forget, Fallout 4 goes on sale Tuesday, November 10th for Xbox One, PS4 & PC: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias=aps&field-keywords=fallout+4

Last week Apple's earnings report was revealed. Unsurprisingly, they had a monster quarter, posting $51.5 billion in revenue and snatching up a quarterly profit of $11.1 billion. This gives the company a new cash reserve of $206 Billion US Dollars. The folks at BGR put together a fun little analysis which concludes that Apple could actually afford to buy almost every "major" sports team in the world, and still have money left over!

Here's their breakdown:

32 United States NFL Football teams = $37.2 billion
29 United States NBA Basketball teams = $32 billion
30 United States Major League Baseball teams = $36 billion
All United States NHL Hockey teams = $14.7 billion
20 United States Major League Soccer (MLS) teams = $3.14 billion
Top 20 International Soccer (Football) teams = $23.2...

With the words “Candy Crush” trending worldwide on Twitter today for quite some time, there’s no mistaking exactly what mobile games company King is best known for. The reason for the infuriatingly addictive mobile game trending today is because Activision Blizzard announced that it is to buy King, the game’s creator, for $5.9 billion, with the deal being unanimously approved by both boards.

MCV reports that this sum breaks down to $18 per share for King’s remaining shares, which is a fifth higher than King’s closing share price on October 30.

Announcing the deal, Activision said that acquiring the maker of Candy Crush and Candy Crush Soda Saga would increase its presence on mobile. The company expects its mobile revenue to reach $36 billion in 2015, growing more than half by 2019....

According to a fresh report coming from the MacRumors publication, it seems that the Personal Pickup option is coming soon to international Apple Stores, as well. The publication said that Apple is already training retail clerks in Australia, France, the U.K., and other countries.

Rumor has it that the expansion could take place this month, possibly along with the release of the iPad Pro. However, while it's going to be announced in the near future, it will become available later this year, or even in 2016.

A big number of Apple's international markets allow customers to reserve in-store stock, but the actual purchase process has to be completed in-person as well. Having debuted back in 2011 in the US, this option could be useful for customers from other countries who want their...

Starting with yesterday, Walmart has begun offering Apple's 16GB Wi-Fi only iPad mini 2 at a significant discount, selling it for $199 instead of $268. $199 is one of the lowest prices currently available for iPad mini 2, so if you're looking to buy one, now would be the right moment.

When compared to the current-generation iPad mini 4, the iPad mini 2 has a slower processor, less RAM, and it lacks Touch ID. It's also thicker and slightly heavier than the newest iPad mini. However, at this price, it's still a pretty good offer, as it comes with an A7 processor, a 5-megapixel rear camera, and 1.2-megapixel front-facing camera.

This is indeed a very good deal, but more similar deals are expected to appear during the month of November due to Black Friday. For now, Walmart will be...

The iPad Pro is currently listed on Apple’s website with a November launch date, but we don't know the exact date for the release. A new report fro 9to5Mac suggests that Apple is planning to release the 12.9-inch tablet on Wednesday, November 11.

Mark Gurman said “Apple plans to start selling the 12.9-inch iPad Pro on Wednesday, November 11 via both its physical retail and online stores.”

The $99 Apple Pencil and the $169 Smart Keyboard will also launch alongside the iPad Pro on November 11, according to the report. It seems that Apple’s support staff is scheduled to complete iPad Pro training by November 6.

The iPad Pro starts at $799 for the Wi-Fi-only model with 32GB of storage, has an ultra high-resolution screen with much improved touch latency, four speakers, a powerful...

Apple has selected MildMania’s ‘rop‘ as its App of the Week for this week. Thus, from now through next Thursday, the popular puzzler will be available for free for both iPhone and iPad users, represnting a $1 savings over its usual price.

The game is described as a mind-bending, minimal puzzler with nearly 200 beautiful levels. In each of those levels, you must rearrange the different pieces of rope on a hexagonal grid to match the shape that you are given. Here's what the App Store editors said about the game:

"Give your brain a workout with this smart, superbly satisfying spatial puzzler. You’ll need sharp wits and nimble fingers to arrange overlapping bands on a hexagonal grid and match increasingly complex shapes. Packed with clever variety, rubbery physics, and a learning curve...
