Sling Coming to iPhone |

We chatted with the guys at Sling Media today, and are super excited that they're submitting their iPhone client to the AppStore by March for release. I (and many others) have been waiting for this patiently for a good while. Pricing is not yet available - but can you put a price on Sling on your iPhone?
The app is actually very responsive over wifi - streaming video looked awesome, and favorite channels were easy to set up (but require you to do them from a browser - NOT on the iPhone, a little bummer) and browse on the iPhone. We've got a video, but need to get it transferred over to YouTube. Give it til tonight, we're missing our USB cable.

Yes the exciting Macworld 09 iPhone section of the Keynote. This is badass no doubt fo sure. Apple is going out with a bang at their last MAcworld Keynote announcing that you can now purchase music when you aren't within WiFi range on your iPhone.
That's it. Short Post but there really is nothing more to say.

NEW: 17" Macbook Pro | Late January | 8 hr Battery |
|
Jan 06, 2009 - 1:51 PM - by poetic_folly
|

This guy makes Macbook and MBP batteries. After hearing about the new 8 hour battery life in the 17" MBP coming out late January, you love him.
The 17" Macbook Pro gets a major update today, falling in line finally with the recent updates to the other Apple laptops. Starting at $2799 (same as its been), comes with 4GB of RAM, and can take up to 8.

Probably most notable of the changes though, is the whopping 8 hour claimed battery life per charge, with up to 1000 charges per battery - roughly 3 times the average... [Read More]

What's New for iWork 09 + iWork.com Launched |
|
Jan 06, 2009 - 1:46 PM - by cash7c3

New charts in Keynote.
iWork is coming on strong in 2009 with individual programs receiving major updates to add functionality and a new service being launch: iwork.com which is squarely set to take on Google Docs and SharePoint by Microsoft. Now to get down to the details of what was updated in Keynote, Page, Numbers and the launch of iWork.com.
Keynote 09- Majic Move. You setup your slides and Keynote 09 does the work to move objects around your slides. A deck of cards messed up on slide one. Organized on slide two. Keynote magically organizes them between slides. Magic Move is good looking and smooth. You need to demo it to get how cool it is.
- Object Move. Moves objects off your slide during presentations in a very neat fashion. Keynote is getting pretty intelligent in how it automatically creates moving animations using your slides.
- Text Transitions. If you have ever used Power Point you know what they are. Annoying little things to make your text

Please do not refresh repeatedly. The live blog will update automatically.
Sorry for the lame quality photos - we had a slick camera all set up and ready, and last minute technical difficulties (as in, WHILE we were sitting down to start taking photos) screwed that French poodle hard. :/ So you get iPhone photos...

[Rumor] Fixed Battery 17" Macbook Pro? |
|
Jan 05, 2009 - 6:11 PM - by cash7c3
|
Of course the one laptop from Apple that avoided updates last time around needs an update tomorrow at Macworld. It missed the last go around while Apple needed to work out bugs. According to AppleInsider the 17" Macbook Pro is all ready and is going to be announced at Macworld.
That's good news for those shopping for the large screen laptop. Well Maybe not. If the rumors are true this new 17" Macbook Pro will have a fixed battery inside? What?!?!?! A fixed battery??!? Crazy. It could be true and AppleInsider seems pretty confident in their sources but I still think it is crazy. The fixed battery in the Macbook Air is not a popular feature and carrying over the same mistake into the largest laptop in Apple's line seems like a ridiculous move to me. IT would undoubtedly make the 17" Macbook Pro model sell less as users moved to other similar solutions with a removable battery.
Something more reasonable of course is that the new 17" Macbook Pro is expected to have the unibody aluminum construction like its younger cousins and some graphics updates via NVIDIA.

[Rumor] 4+ New iMacs and 1 New Mac mini at Macworld 09 |
|
Jan 05, 2009 - 5:54 PM - by cash7c3

Like every mac related event the rumor mill has spooled up and this year's rumors are directed at Apple's desktop line of computers. PC Perspective has an interesting and is betting that this years Macworld will show us four new iMacs and a new Mac mini.
The iMac(s)
Apple has been pretty excited lately about shoving some nice NVIDIA GPUs into their new macs lately starting with the new Macbook, Air, and Pro a few months ago. It is only rational to expect to see the NVIDIA influence leaking over into Apple's aging iMac line. What we might see are two new 20" iMacs that use NVIDIA... [Read More]

DIY Speakers Out of Old iPods |
|
Jan 05, 2009 - 5:03 PM - by AppleChic

If you’re like me you have old generations of iPods laying around collecting dust since your iPhone is now the “best iPod ever.” – Jobs
Well this guy, Jordan Horwich, found a use for his old iPods that I think is pretty nifty. He basically took some iPod shells and filled them with some speakers and other wiring and he now has some decent speakers that match his Apple notebook perfectly.
Horwich explains;
"I was looking through a bunch of old stuff when I came across my original iPod. I had long ago scavenged it for parts, so I came up with another use for it. The total cost ended up around 100 USD for everything. It was mostly the shipping prices that made it so expensive. If I had spent some more time finding cheaper prices, or finding the parts locally, the cost would have been about 60 USD."
Here are some more pics of what he created:
