Apple’s latest version of their OS X operating system, named Snow Leopard is now available for preorder at Amazon.com. It’s due to be released at the end of September.
It’s not on any Canadian sites yet for preorder but I’ll update this post when it is.
It’s a pretty slick update to Leopard (10.5) and clocks in at just $29 for one user
Apple has a full list of refinements that details what you’ll get for that $29.
Today Apple released the latest firmware for the iPhone taking it up to 1.1.4. Unfortunately, as usual, their details on what was updated is beyond sparse with ‘bug fixes’ being the only description at this time. Hopefully this also means the SDK is imminent. It didn’t take long before people upgraded and tried the ZiPhone…
There has been a lot of talk and speculation about the rumoured 3G iPhone as well as when it will launch in Canada since the ‘if’ part has been established (‘later this year’) and how much the data plan might cost to Canadians. I figured I’d throw my thoughts out there and see how close…
This is a pretty clever (and well done) parody of the MacBook Air commercial featuring the ThinkPad X300. It’s (the X300) definitely a decent ultraportable/subnotebook/fitsinanenvelope computer….it just doesn’t run OSX which is why I sold my eeePC. via TUAW
I was recently offered the chance to test drive Microsoft’s latest version of their ‘wish I was an iPod’ MP3 player, the Zune and I jumped at the chance. Despite what some people may think, I’m not *just* a fan of Apple products. I’m a fan of cool products in general and always like to…
At MobileCamp Vancouver this past weekend, I thought it might be fun to try out Qik.com‘s iPhone app. It’s currently only available for use on jailbroken iPhones (via Cydia). While David was talking about some iPhone tricks, I streamed him live via wifi to Qik and we had it on the projector in the room….
So yesterday, I said to not buy anything from Apple because today they’d be possibly announcing some new products. Well they did indeed announce a few new things and I bought one of them, the MacBook Air: It had been long rumoured that Apple would release a sub-notebook and I had guessed that it would…

One of the problems with Apple’s upgrades is that often older ‘pro’ versions of their software that I’ve paid good money for are suddenly reduced to the ‘free’ version with the new upgrade. e.g.:QuicktimePro
I usually find this out after the fact as Apple are not too open about the loss of functionality of older software.
Also, with each upgrade in iTunes the spyware of Apple increases. I had to use iTunes 4.0 on my old iBook for several years to keep Apple out of my computer. The list goes on.
