Guinness Book of World Records Announces Tech Awards

By

I don’t think I speak for myself, even though I am a lover of the Andriod system, that this announcement comes at no surprise.

New Technology related awards in the Guinness Books are a welcome sight in my mind. It’s just another piece showing that technology and many of it’s wonders are growing ever more so, into the every day life of most people.

Apple’s App Store, the iPhone 4 and a few iOS games, have been awarded Guinness world records, including the iPhone 4 being named the fastest-selling portable gaming system.

“The release of the iPhone has not just changed the mobile industry, but the video game world too,”Gaz Deaves, Guinness World Records’ gaming editor, said in a statement. “With the never-ending App Store selection and an intuitive device, Apple has created a gigantic new space for itself in the casual games genre that literally brings entertainment to users wherever they may be.”

The iPhone 4 was named the fastest-selling portable gaming system by Guinness after selling an estimated 1.5 million handsets on the first day it was released on June 24, 2010.
