iPhone 4

I’m getting one, it’s just a matter of time.  The new design, software upgrade to iOS and upgraded camera have me pretty intrigued.  The speed will undoubtedly be better as well based on the fact that I have a 3G and not the 3GS.  Music is a really big piece of why I have a [...]

The New iPhone Hardware

…was an intentional leak.  Of course, I’m not in the know on this, but there are really only two options, intentional and unintentional. Thought the latter is of course possible, it’s likelihood is slim.

The good reason for intentionally doing it is that Apple is slightly worried about the new Verizon Android phones (the incredible especially) [...]

It’s All Coming Together: iPhone OS 4

I just read up on the Gizmodo and Engadget liveblogs of the Apple OS4 event today.  This entire event was a reinforcement of what has become incredibly clear to me in the last few years; Apple, above all others, is the best marketing company in the entire world.  They are absolutely masterful in creating products [...]

iPad…Not Now, But Perhaps In The Future

I’m not against tablet computers.  In fact, I can see a lot of value in their flexibility.  Being able to watch a tv show, go over a presentation with a potential buyer, create smaller scale documents and browse the web in something small that fits into a briefcase actually sounds very nice.

Google’s News Feed

Just did a quick search on “iPad” to look at some reviews and thoughts and found Google’s news feature, a scroll down of new publications updated constantly.  It incorporates a lot of stuff that I saw such as tweets, blogs, site reviews and whatnot.
I just found it interesting and a nice, functional real time piece.  [...]

School Starts & Current Events

I’ve been very busy with school as the semester starts.  I have three night classes (that’s a lot) and they are all centered on the medical industry, which has been interesting as of yet, but will assuredly be a lot of work.  My day classes are ethics and anthropology; the latter is already proving a [...]

Black Friday Online Traffic

Just checked out ComScore and their press release on Black Friday web traffic.  Here’s a synopsis:
Overall spending is up 11% to 595MM year over year.  The expert sited points out that this increase in spending is likely due to the heavy promotions of online retailers.  This lines up pretty well with brick and mortar shopping [...]
