GeekBench illustrates how irrelevant traditional benchmark scores are. Most folks are more interested in real world numbers like app launch and OS boot times, importing photos and videos, encoding video to H.264, and frame rate for popular games.

This tablet will look good... next to Cisco's $600 + $25/month Umi, home video conferencing add-on for HDTV.

Very disappointing. I was hoping iChat will integrate FaceTime, add other IM and social protocols, and sync (ideally via cloud) SMS and MMS with iPhone's Messages app.

AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS) and Time Capsule (TC) are becoming 3rd citizens. Based on the information available so far, neither AirPlay nor AirPrint will recognize disks and printers connected to AEBS and TC. Perhaps firmware update will …

Wow, all the Apple fanboys defending Apple for (allegedly) removing 1080p, when just about every single HDTV related products on the market supports 1080p, astounds me. Let's consider the facts. Nearly every 40-inch or larger HDTVs on the market …

I am a bit confused by the product matrix, mainly for 27" model. There are 4 variations, 2 regular, 2 built to order CPU upgrades:$1699: 3.2 GHz i3 (dual, hyper-threading, 4 MB L3), ATI 5670 512 MB $1899: 3.6 GHz i5 (dual, hyper-threading, 4 MB L…

Price not withstanding, this is very underwhelming upgrade. The least Amazon could've done is to achieve feature parity with direct competitors (e.g., Nook). Chief among them are (1) Nook's "lend me" feature, which allows users to some books without…

Another thumbs down vote for the charger.AA batteries only. Should charge AAAs too. It should charge 4 batteries at a time. Lacks USB connection for charging off of USB port. Lack of battery capacity indicators similar to the MacBook.

Am I the only one who wants to see wimpier (and cheaper) Mac Pro? Something that uses iMac grade CPU at say, $1499?

I would love to see Apple take this opportunity to add digital audio and video output capabilities.

With Android and WebOS (and soon Windows Phone 7) offering free cloud-based syncing, it's sad that us iPhone users are forced to use USB cable (unless we pay $100/year for MobileMe or use Exchange Server). Apple should offer a limited version of …
