AT&T Edge Network down from Chicago to Kansas
The Apple discussion forums are on fire today because At&T’s Edge network is down – apparently from Chicago to Kansas. Here in Texas its functioning, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen it quite this slow before (and lets face it – that’s saying something). People in the effected area should be warned that while […]
Garmin takes on iPhone with Nuviphone
Garmin, late Wed, revealed their own entrance into the cellphone market, with a phone that appears to be the biggest rival to the iPhone yet. The touch screen device has a 3.5-inch screen and centers around its built-in GPS device. The device is filled with Google apps as well, including apps for traffic, weather, gmail, […]

“New Soul” song from Macbook Air ad now on iTunes
If you’re like me – and everyone I know – you can’t help but like the new song that is attached to the Macbook Air ad. Well, Apple has heard the demand for the song, and has showcased it in iTunes. You’ll find a link to it on the iTunes frontpage, or you can just […]

AppleTV update delayed, Macbook Air now shipping
In what is seemingly turning into a tradition for the AppleTV, the software behind the device is delaying it once again. You may remember last year during the “Take One” phase of AppleTV that the device was slightly delayed after it’s Macworld unveiling, with the device shipping on the last day of February, and not […]
YouTube Find: Apple.com through the years
One of the first articles I posted on Apple Gazette was a look back at 10 years of Apple.com. Some clever fellow has taken a collection of images from Flickr covering the entire history of the Apple.com domain and spliced it into a video. I hate that its not the entire site design, just a […]
Apple posts AppleTV Guided Tour
After I managed to regain consciousness from my over-the-counter cold/allergy/sinus drug induced semi-coma, I noticed a new guided tour on Apple’s official site. This time it’s a guided tour for the new features of the all-new AppleTV. You can click here to take a look at it. REMINDER – to those of you that have […]
Limited Updates – I’m sick.
I’ve been fighting off a bug the entire weekend, and today it really punched me in the face. I think it’s just a head cold, but I am completely miserable. So, with that in mind, updates will probably be limited over the next day or so. Anybody got any good home remedies for a cold?
Reader Feedback Request: Apple Gazette – the book?
At Macworld, one of the booths I stopped by was Blurb.com. If you’ve never heard of the company, they produce full color, high quality, soft and hardcover books – very much like iPhoto books, but it a many more options and templates designed for more than just photos. I was so impressed with the quality […]
YouTube Find: Macbook Paper Ad (plus print your own!)
You have to love these paper Macs (well, you don’t HAVE to – but I really think you should – they’re fun) – but what I love even more is that they took the time to make this parody ad for it. You can print your very own Macbook Paper by clicking here. via TUAW
So just how long do you have to watch those iTunes rentals?
I still haven’t watched the copy of The Simpsons movie that rented last week, and I don’t plan to until the AppleTV update comes down the pipe (hopefully sometime this week)….so I haven’t tried this myself, but MacNN reports that if you watch a movie, and don’t finish it within the 24 hour period, but […]
