You already know how much I like my invisibleSHIELD for my (now old) 5G iPod. Well, if you were clicking the order button as Steve was turning off the RDF, you might be happy to hear that ShieldZone is already taking pre-orders on shields for your new purchase. And, they will be available for purchase [...]

Today… today was a good day. Or rather, it ended up as such. 
Work was fine, nothing really special. My boss paid for lunch, which was awesome. Got a bunch of work done. Overall, it was a slightly better-than-average workday.
I got into my car at 5PM and started the engine. Cranked up the AC. Reached back [...]

Gizmodo points us to a video of some folks abusing their MacBook. Thankfully, it was protected by invisibleSHIELD. The drywall screws certainly did a number on the counter-top, but the shiny, white Apple notebook computer emerged unscathed.
The folks behind the invisibleSHIELD sent some gadget protection BostonGeek’s way. I was happy to test [...]

Big deal.  An overpriced leather case for the iPod, a Bose-like dock for the iPod, and worst of all, they are no longer offer a sub-$500 computer. If you want the gory details, the Apple product pages are updated and the Apple Store is back up and running and eager to steal take your [...]

Well, here we sit with bated breath waiting to hear what His Holy One, Steve Jobs, announces this fine Tuesday morning (well, afternoon for us on the east-coast). The rumor-mill has been working overtime, but it seems most people expect the following:

Intel-based Mac mini. No iPod dock.
Special-edition iPod, possibly to support AIDS-awareness.
Full-length feature [...]

Well, not exactly a new iPod, but now the iPod nano comes in a 1GB capacity. This means that if you want to own one of these gorgeous little devices, you only have to shell out $150. In fact, I have already placed an order for one. But, shhh, keep it [...]

Its no surprise to many, but topping the list of most sought after electronic gifts this holiday season are the iPod and the Xbox 360. Coincidentally, I wouldn’t mind at all receiving both of these gifts.
The complete top 10 list (complete survey – PDF):

iPod Nano (34.5%)
Xbox 360 (21.2%)
Plasma TV/HDTV (13.7%)
FLY Pentop Computer (8.5%)
Don’t Know/No [...]

The most personally useful thing that came out of the recent Apple announcement is the ability to gift songs, albums, and playlists. I don’t have any immediate plans to buy a fancy iPod that sorta plays video and I already own an iMac (although not near as nice as the new one). Being [...]

Submit to the reality distortion field.
Watch today’s Apple event on your computer.

The definite theme for the updates was multimedia.
The first announcements are new iMacs that are thinner, have a built-in iSight, include PhotoBooth software, and have a slight bump in specs. In addition, they are offering FrontRow, which is a remote-control/application that makes it easier to use the iMac as a media center.
The next announcement [...]

To complement Colin’s recent gripes about the problems he’s been having with his Powerbook, I figured I should mention another issue that’s popped up on the Apple radar recently: The mysterious and baffling ease with which customers are scratching the faces of their iPod Nanos.

I think it was about six months ago that I purchased my Creative Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra. I was looking for an MP3 player, and being the Mac-o-phobe that I am, the iPod was out. Oh, it isn’t that being a PC person has made me leery of the hippie Macsters (though it [...]
