Tips and TricksAT&T giving free Wi-Fi to iPhone customersSubmitted by Chauncey Dupree on Thu, 05/01/2008 - 09:41.
Apparantly it isn't terribly hard to spoof the iPhone interface and get your laptop on free WiFi either - as a Macrumors forum poster shows us. No announcement from AT&T or Apple has been made but expect one shortly.

Apple updates iMacs with faster processor, graphicsSubmitted by Chauncey Dupree on Mon, 04/28/2008 - 14:54.
Apple today upgraded its iMac selection to include faster (and more efficient) Penryn (or Montevina QX9770!?) processors - topping out at over 3 GHz. The iMacs can be configured with much burlier graphics cards (NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS) as well. Unsurprisingly, Apple didn't include Blu Ray as an option...perhaps next time? “The iMac’s gorgeous aluminum and glass all-in-one design has been an incredible hit with our customers and is just one of the reasons Mac sales are growing three and a half times faster than PC sales,” said Philip Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Product Marketing. “With the latest Intel processors, a faster new graphics option and more memory, customers now have even more reasons to love the iMac.” Also Apple touts the new iMac's green credentials:

miShare iPod sharing kitSubmitted by Quincy Pince-Nez on Fri, 04/25/2008 - 01:01.
OK, we all know how to hack into an iPod and download its contents off of it - you know in case you lose your computer or something? It also isn't to hard to just copy tracks off of your computer to give to your friends - just legal stuff obviously. But what if you just want to mainline that music from on iPod to another? miShare has your back with their new little gizmo. Now how about video sharing?

Updates for the older MacSubmitted by Andy Space on Mon, 04/21/2008 - 11:00.
The company hosts a huge library of downloads for these veteran machines, naturally warning that "all the software here is considered obsolete and may do harm if improperly installed. Please use extreme caution." All Apple software released since January 1998 remains available, but that's found within the AppleCare Knowledge Base. ( Filed Under: )
Windows iTunes users being asked to install Safari by Software UpdateSubmitted by Seth Weintraub on Thu, 03/20/2008 - 13:50.
There are definitely two schools of thought on this one - we are NOT taking sides. The first is that Apple is using its market leading position in music jukebox software to push its browser - like Microsoft used its market leading position in operating systems to push IE a few years back. While effective, it isn't really fair to the Firefoxes and Operas of the world who don't have that leverage to fall back on. It is also a bit misleading to say it is a "software update" when it was never installed in the first place. If you were using Microsoft Office on Mac and an update came up saying "Update your Internet Explorer (which you don't have on your machine) for Mac to 5.2.3". Would you be happy?

iPhone SDK torrent on the InternetSubmitted by Quincy Pince-Nez on Sat, 03/08/2008 - 13:58.
If you actually are successful in developing an application with this, you will be forced to pay Apple the normal price before they publish the application on their site, one must assume.

MacBook Air gets discounted at Amazon $1744Submitted by admin on Fri, 02/29/2008 - 11:02.
Amazon is also offering large discounts on the last generation Apple MacBooks ($919 after $75 rebate) and Macbook Pros ($1544 after $150 rebate). Since the latest changes were fairly minimal (in fact the older model Prros have MORE L2 Cache 4Mb vs 3Mb), it might be a good time to pick up a very slightly outdated machine at a very significant discount. Rebates end March 11. In other Amazon news, Time Capsule in both $299 500Gb and 1Tb $499 models is now shipping.
