When I read Google’s Chrome OS announcement via its corporate blog, I couldn’t help but chuckle throughout it. I think my favorite line is, “The user interface is minimal to stay out of your way, and most of the user experience takes place on the web.” Wow, I’m all for creative...

A few weeks ago, a colleague and I were talking about the iPhone and postulating about the catalyst to its touch-based approach. For starters, I think the company was considering adding phone functionality to to the iPod. With that in mind, I imagine that one day, Steve Jobs was browsing...

The other day I came across an article by Brad Sams (who, for clarity's sake, I will refer to as Brad S.) at Neowin listing the six reasons that Apple's OS X will not go mainstream . No, it's not an Apple-bashing article from an MS fanboy. In fact, the article opens by saying Apple has a...

I watched most of the WWDC as I am sure most watchers of technology did to see what was coming up for Apple. The largely anticipated 3G iphone was discussed. The next version of OSX got a code-name (Snow Leopard). However the most interesting aspect of the event for me was the Mobile ME product . Apple...

As I suspected, back at the time of this post , Apple has licensed ActiveSync, and it will be available on the iPhone when the 2.0 software update becomes available, which should be some time in June.

Remember when the iPhone came out? And all those happy Apple employees that got free iPhones? And remember when Apple lowered the price of the iPhone, and offered rebates to all those people who had already purchased an iPhone at the higher price? Well, apparently some Apple employees decided to cash...

Apple has introduce a whole new lineup of music devices for the holiday season. The most interesting of which is the iPod touch which is similar to the iPhone and is priced starting at $299. The new nano has a pretty unattractive form factor though in my opinion, but adding video is a nice plus. What...

News from the Apple side of the fence: Apple Inc. is urging some iPod and iTunes users to hold off on upgrading their computers to Windows Vista, warning that the iTunes music software might not work well with Microsoft's new operating system. Apple is urging users of their software not to upgrade to...

In a press announcement this morning Microsoft unvailed when they will make the Zune available and how much it will cost you. It will be in stores starting November 14 at a price of $249.00. A little steep, maybe. My thought was they would try to undercut the current apple price which is also $249.00...
