Apple iPhone 5S and iOS 7 to be Released June 20, 2013

Apple iPhone 5S and iOS 7 to be Released June 20, 2013

Apple will launch iPhone 5S and a new-look iOS 7 on June 20.

The iPhone 5S will will feature a new processor and new imaging technology.

Expect the Apple iPhone 5S to be available for purchase a few weeks after the June 20 announcement and which would be sometime in the first couple weeks of July 2013.

The iPhone 5S will feature:
– Apple’s new A7 processor
– upgraded camera and a fingerprint chip under the Home button for improved security

Also expected is a low cost iPhone modem which will be targeted at markets where less expensive handsets are readily available. Think a $200-$250 price range for an iPhone economy, with some possible limited features. We are looking forward to the Apple Developer’s Conference and many announcements from Apple including these new mobile devices.
WWDC 2013 Many believe Apple could be scheduling the 2013 event for June 10-14th or possibly the week after.

There are reports that the iPhone 6 with iOS 7 could be announced in mid-June and be released in August. More details will follow.

Los Angeles Yelp Beer Month – Yelp’s On Tap 2013 – April 2013

Why wait until October to drown yourself in worthy suds? Spring is on the horizon; so in the spirit of getting hip hoppity hop, join us for Yelp’s On Tap, a month-long craft beer promotion in April! Gulp.

Get in on the fun here.
The hard facts:
-What? Yelp’s On Tap, craft beers for $3-$5
-When? April 2013
-Where? Here, silly. LA, and all of its sprawlingness.
-Why? We like craft beer, we don’t mind a discount, and we love supporting local businesses.
-How? See below.

All you need to do is:
1. Stop by one of the awesome local participating restaurants/bars during normal business hours during their respective weeks below.
2. Mention Yelp’s On Tap [you have to mention it to get the discount!] or Check-In to the business through your Yelp App and show your server/bartender,
3. Drink your inexpensive, delicious brew,
4. Tip on the original beer price,
5. Repeat.
6. Don’t get behind the wheel! Use your SideCar app for a ride. See more info (including a discount code!) at the bottom of the event listing.

And with the quickness you’ll have a cold beer in your hand and a few extra bucks (per beer) in your wallet. Sound like a heck of a deal? Well, it is.

Feel free to hit up any of the bars on your own or with friends, but in case you want to meet up with me and other yelpers, I’ll be planning events throughout the month, so keep your eyes peeled on Yelp’s On Tap events page (https://bit.ly/yotevents) for updates.
*Double check this list frequently as changes may be made throughout the month

Share your findings, adventures, pics, and craft beerness with us on Twitter/Instagram (@YelpLA) using #yelpsontap.
