Sunday, February 14, 2010

Okay, so my reasons for not wanting an iPad boil down to lack of active pen input and me being a steadfast pen enthusiast. Obviously, I’m in the extreme minority on that (in the rest of the world, not on this site), but I worked hard to carve that niche, so I’m not about to [...]

I went to see Paul McCartney at CitiField, the Mets’ new home, last Friday night with my wife. We watched and listened to a 67-year-old man energetically perform a two-and-a-half hour show that should have worn him out, but wore me out instead.

I hate to have to plug my iPhone in to charge. My wife keeps my office as dark as a cave to shave five cents off our electric bill so I usually can’t see where to plug my iPhone in. After over a year of use the charge port is rather lose as well. I [...]

So Apple is facing opposition to putting up one of its gigantic glass-everywhere stores in one of Washington D.C.’s historic neighborhoods, the complaint being that it’d be too big and too modern to fit in with all the other quaint, cute buildings in the area (see our artist’s rendition above).

Apple logo cavorts to music on a T-Shirt in electroluminescent glory. How much of an Apple fanboy are you? Now you can advertise for the Cupertino Fruit Company in glowing electroluminescent folderol, its built-in spectrum analyzer animating those lights like a colorful fountain in response to music or ambient sounds.

Those eagerly anticipating next month’s Macworld and the prospects of a smaller iPhone should beware, as a slew of tiny clones are introducing confusion as they reach store shelves.

As someone who uses multiple screens when I’m working (or playing games) the idea of having a laptop with some extra screen space as portable as the unit itself is really exciting. Sure, that extra space would come in the form of folding, side-mounted monitors that have a break before the main screen — annoying [...]
