I love Steven P. Jobs. He along with Joe Namath and Mike Rowe. Anyway, Steven P. has this iphone thing. I have two. I like it a lot. I was a Mac guy before I got it. So Google is run by three really smart guys. Two idea guys, one better looking than the other, and a manager type guy. So these guys got a phone thing also now. It has a keyboard and a ...

Boy Genius Report has it "on good authority" that Our Lord and Savior Jesusphone 3G will be sold in God's own retail store: Walmart. They name November 15th as the date of arrival, which is just in time for shoppers to overlook it as they clear their local Walmart of cans of beans to prepare for the econocopalypse that's sure to destroy Western civilization as we know it. You heard it here first, folks: the ...

r2k writes "While the Apple rumours posted yesterday highlight some of the most commonly talked-about opinions, a writer for CNet UK sat down with Mahalo's Jason Calacanis, who told CNet he knew for a fact that Apple is developing fully networked LCD TV sets. As the writer points out, Apple dropped 'Computer' from its company name for a very good reason."Read more of this story at Slashdot.

By Mona Nomura of Pixel Bits (FriendFeed/Twitter)There's speculation of a possible Microsoft-RIM marriage. It sounds appealing, but highly unlikely. Steven Hodson points out Microsoft has never been in hardware. I agree hardware is a factor but the bigger question is: can a MSFT-RIM team compete in the Mobile Market?(Pie chart via jkOnTheRun. Thank You!)In 2007, the mobile world was heavily Symbian dominated at 57.1% of the share. WinMo was 2nd with 11.5%, followed by RIM ...

I agree that RIM would not make sense for MS, but they have always dabbled in hardware. They have keyboards, mice, Zune, XBox and older stuff like a web tv appliance. They just have had marginal success with it.

The MacBook and MacBook Pro are long due for a case redesign but, beyond that, little is known for sure. Here we have collected all the pieces of information we have about them. All the facts, the logical rumors, and the crazy ones, which we will keep updating through the coming days until the ...

Jason Calacanis told CNET's Nate Lanxon that "he knew first-hand that Apple was working on a networked television." From Nate's blog: These LCD HDTVs will be fully networked, with the ability to stream all your iTunes content from your Mac or PC. In fact, Calacanis told me they'll function like a standard TV with an Apple TV box, only without the need for the box. In many ways, this isn't surprising news, as Apple already ...

Filed under: Laptops With a new MacBook announcement now just days away, speculation is unsurprisingly at a fever pitch as to exactly what Apple has in store, and the folks at PC Perspective have now pieced together a few clues to whet your appetite in anticipation of the big event. Most of those are drawn from mounting evidence from the NVIDIA camp, including the image above that made an appearance on the company's website a ...

A few weeks ago I learned about the Apple recall of their (”impossibly small” as Steve Jobs would say) iPhone 3G USB power adapter. Apparently the prongs are at risk of separating from the adapter and becoming lodged in electrical outlets. I filled out the form online and today the replacement adapter arrived. However, this post isn’t about the actual recall. It’s about how Apple doesn’t know how to be green, not to mention save ...

Apple finally made official this week what many in the gadgetosphere have assumed for several weeks now--new MacBook laptops will be launching next Tuesday (October 14). It's been expected that Apple would refresh both its MacBook and MacBook Pro line (and possibly bring them into design synergy by replacing the entry-level MacBook's plastic shell with aluminum; see this YouTube video for a possible pre-release view), but The Inquisitr thinks we might be seeing something new ...

According to a just posted Apple support document, the specific models affected were all made between May 2007 and September 2008, and include all 15- and 17-inch models equipped ...

Many analysts and tech pundits spend a lot of time wailing and gnashing their teeth over the supposed demise of Apple, should something happen to Steve Jobs. I find it especially amusing that many of them seem to be the same ones who give Jobs little credit for Apple’s success (it’s all Jon Ive, or marketing, or the Apple faithful, or blah, blah, blah), but still claim Apple would be lost without him. I wish ...

I disagree. How long will the passion continue when the motivation goes missing? Look at HP after Hewlett and Packard, look at Edison after Thomas and you can see what I mean. Stock is not stake, management is not founding. Over time, people at apple will focus on profitable quarters over game changing innovation unless someone comes in to reinvent it once again...

It was quite interesting to watch the market swing yesterday. Apple (AAPL) took a 20% hit on the market last week when it was expected that consumer spending on “bling” would be reduced. “Bling” stocks like Apple, Starbucks (SBUX) and other companies representing consumers “living the life” mentalities tanked with futures projections. And then yesterday came. Duncan Riley had an exclusive reporting the imminent release of an $800 laptop from Apple, the first sub-$1000 machine ...

Shares of Research In Motion have declined from $148 to $60 in four months, falling along with most tech stocks. The difference between RIM and, say, Yahoo? Microsoft still wants to buy RIM, say some analysts cited by Reuters. Forget Google's still-not-on-the-market Android phones; RIM's BlackBerry is the only real competition for Apple's iPhone. Like Apple, RIM offers not just the hardware but the software and services that run on top of it; RIM does ...

This doesn't speak for volumes for Nvidia's credibility. As you might recall, a huge swath of Nvidia's notebook graphics cards—ones with the G84 or G86 chipset—fail at "higher-than-normal" rates. MacBook Pros have the GeForce 8600M GT, which uses the G84. Nvidia assured Apple that MacBook Pros were totally cool. Turns out, they were lying! After doing their own investigation, Apple "has determined that some MacBook Pro computers... may be affected." Update: Nvidia just chimed in ...
