Well, I'm pretty much addicted to all things Apple, and Twitter. That's probably all you really need to know. If I'm not posting here, I'm probably wasting time on Twitter.

Last week we told you guys that Bumper refunds were being sent out, then we let you know that you could submit your request for a free Bumper via an iPhone application, and now we’re letting you know that Apple wasn’t kidding when they publicly announced that they’re going to have a hard time keeping [...]

Apple’s putting the cellphone industry to shame

Friday, July 23, 2010

1 Comment

We had some idea just how successful Apple‘s been with their iPhone, but we never really took the moment needed to fully appreciate just how much they’ve obliterated the industry. Say what you will about the iPhone, it’s still pretty amazing just how fast they were able to not only bring a competitor to market, [...]

If you can’t laugh, you cry: CollegeHumor spoofs Stevenote

Friday, July 23, 2010

0 Comments

I know I said we wouldn’t be talking about Antennagate anymore, but this parody video is too funny to pass up. The CollegeHumor gang has decided to comment satirically on the iPhone 4 Antennagate feud by recreating the Stevenote in a way that makes Steve look like a complete badass. We don’t agree with the [...]

Hoping for a white iPhone? You’re gonna be waiting a while

There’s big problems with the white iPhones, and we’re finally getting confirmation from Apple about the device. Apple hasn’t come right out and said why the trendy white model isn’t shipping, but we’ve been hearing rumours of a problem with the white paint used in the device. Officially, Apple said “White models of Apple’s new [...]

iPhone 4 Bumper Case program goes live…on iTunes

Friday, July 23, 2010

2 Comments

We spent a lot of time yesterday trying to figure out how this Bumper program would work, and we certainly never expected that Apple would be releasing an iPhone App to take care of the problem. But, it certainly makes a ton of sense now that we think about it. How do you stop everyone [...]

You should be hearing from Apple about your Bumper refund right about now.

Apple announced that their fix for the over-hyped antennagate would be shipping out free bumpers to people who’ve purchased an iPhone 4 through to the end of September. But, no one knew exactly how the refund process would happen.  It seems like Apple has already started sending out refunds, letting people know via email that [...]

All these cases for your iPad that make your device look like a book, or a moleskin, or some other device that hangs out on a bookshelf are going to have me going broke — fast.  I’ve delayed pulling the trigger on a Dodocase because they take four to six weeks to deliver, being hand [...]

I know a lot of people who prefer to listen to audio podcasts in mono (We know we need to get back on our daily podcasts). Some people even prefer to have the option available to them when they’re listening to music. I’m not one of those people. Personally I think stereo audio tracks are [...]

MacBook Air about to get some update loving?

Thursday, July 22, 2010

8 Comments

Out of all the computers in Apple‘s linup, the MacBook Air has been the most neglected, and it’s seriously starting to get outdated. It’s been over four-hundred days since the last update, putting it squarely in the don’t buy category until the product gets updated. Year after year updates seem to be the norm from [...]
