  • Stood out in the cold for 12 hours for Optus' midnight launch. Worst idea ever. Not because of any issues, but because I could have just waited a few weeks and actually got sleep that night. In any case, I have it. No difference in signal no m…

  • Frankly, I'd be more interested in an App Store for OS X - something like Ubuntu's (and every other linux distro, ever) repositories. As for an Apple TV App store... I guess I would be less than surprised if when it got an update, it gained compa…
  • Have you considered trying to shield the electrical components? I work for a company that provides satellite internet to people in remote areas. The company that makes the modems does a really terrible job of adequately shielding the power supply…
  • Typing this on previous iteration MBP 13", and the track pad seems to have the same functionality. Didn't notice it until I tried it though. But I can click on everywhere but the top 1/1.5cm, so I think its normal behaviour. The click is deeper o…
  • Don't see why changing the trackpad over would require much more than an incremental case redesign. An i7 would be impractical in something as thin as the Air - there would be no room for a battery big enough to power it, and the associated cooli…
  • Frankly, i'm not entirely sold on how genuine this is yet. But if it is, it looks a shit ton better than the 3GS, imho. 3GS looks very impressive from the front, but as soon as you flip it over, that tacky plastic... yerch. Damn it Apple, I…

  • Mmm.... the youtube site has never worked on my iPod touch, but you may want to try restoring from a backup - that is, use the itunes backup of your phone to go back to when it worked. Digging the Venture Brother sig btb
  • Curious as to how many people saying 'oh, don't be such an entitled prat' live in America?' Don't get me wrong, here in Australia, we know the rest of the world forgets about us, and the general attitude towards getting us movies, tv shows, compu…

  • WOOTzor finally we have some real Apple Stores. Now for one in brisbane. Though Nextbyte is a good apple reseller - their tech support is awesome, at least from where I brought my ipod from. I put it through the wash and they replaced it under wa…

  • Itunes 7 is slightly buggy on my PC. I have to agree that they rushed it, and it could do with a minor patch. It is just little things, like the video not playing (audio works fine) after itunes has been running for a while. Probably wouldn't effec…
  • Still nothing on the Australian site. I'm feeling discriminated. I think jobs has an army of nuclear-atomic supermen that he's going to unleash on the world, and destroy all the windows users, so he has 100% market share. That would be a good fi…
  • get the freak over the iPhone. I gurantee that my $49 nokia can do something it cant. Let me not care about it - at all. I dropped a couple of bricks on my phone (from a decent height), had a freind pore a beer on it (long story) and it still worked…
