iPhone 4 supply stabilizes in Hong Kong, China greenlights iPad 2

Apple Online Store: Hong Kong, Ships in 5 to 7 business daysSupplies of the iPhone 4 in Hong Kong have nearly caught up with demand, according to a report from MacNN. The popular handset is now regularly available on the Apple online store in Hong Kong, with wait times of 5-7 business days.

Previously, Apple intermittently suspended sales of the iPhone 4 in the region, presumably in response to incredible demand. Since Hong Kong has no sales tax, visitors from mainland China and other neighboring countries would reportedly visit the region, buy as many bargain-priced iPhones as they could, bring them home, and then sell them for up to twice as much on the gray market. As a result, the Apple online store in Hong Kong often listed all models of the iPhone 4 as "currently unavailable." Now, in response to increased supply or tapering sales, Hong Kong apparently has enough iPhone 4s to keep the device on sale full time.

On a related note, China last Friday certified Apple's iPad 2 for sale on the Chinese mainland. The China Compulsory Certification (3C) is mandatory for many products sold in China. Apple has yet to announce a launch date for the iPad 2 in China, but the compulsory license, which lasts until April 8, 2016, allows the company to begin official sales of the device on the Chinese mainland at any time.

The iPad 2, which is currently shipping in over two dozen countries, is scheduled to go on sale in South Korea, Singapore, and Hong Kong later this month.

Chef Sleeve for iPad: The iPad 2 meets a raw egg (video)

Longtime readers of TUAW know that I love to cook, and when I'm not whipping something up from scratch I use my iPad to read recipes that I've stored on Dropbox. I've been extremely lucky using my iPad in the kitchen; about the worst thing I've ever done is to smear the screen with greasy fingers and dribble a small amount of wine-infused mushroom pan sauce on it. But I am really worried that one of these days, my luck's going to run out, and that iPad 2 is going to end up with a ladleful of Bison Chili on -- and in -- it.

Some cyberchefs have taken to putting their iPads into gallon zip top bags to protect them, but I've found that the thickness of those bags means that my taps and gestures sometimes don't translate too well to the iPad's touch screen. I recently received an interesting package from Santiago Merea, the CEO of Merea Consulting of Minneapolis. He's the man behind Chef Sleeve, his solution to the problem of using an iPad in the kitchen.

Chef Sleeves are cleverly packaged clear plastic sleeves designed specifically for those situations where you need to use an iPad, but might have fingers covered with a patient's bodily fluids or a cake batter. Although they're not designed to be used to immerse an iPad, they are splash-resistant, so using your iPad in the rain might become a possibility. I decided to put one to the test the best way I knew how: by cracking a raw egg right onto my white iPad 2. Video after the break.

Russia's FSB threatens to block Gmail, Hotmail, Skype

The lead for the FSB security agency's information group Alexander Andreyechkin on Friday proposed banning Gmail, Hotmail, and Skype in Russia. He complained that the brunt of the traffic on these sites wasn't managed within Russia and allegedly made them a haven for 'extremist' groups. Without filters, using these services could lead to a "massive threat" to the nation's security, he claimed....
