Looks like Apple has quietly upgraded the XServer RAID with 750GB drives though they are still Ultra ATA. The 14x750GB configuration (10.5TB) costs an additional $1400 over the 7TB version.

Sure, makes sense. The first iPhone is being targeted at the high end of the market. We should see "iPhone nano" like products with smaller form factors and subset of the functionality released closer to Christmas '07. This is a given. They should b…

The iPhone is priced too high for most people. It will be very hard to achieve the stated goal of 1% market share (mind you, the smart phone market is much smaller) unless cheaper phones are on their way and/or the phones will be subsidized by Cingu…

Another interesting tidbit about Santa Rosa ... The FSB in Santa Rosa is 800 MHz (200 quad pumped) instead of 667 MHz (167 quad pumped) in the current mobile chip set. Given that the highest Merom today is using a 14x multiplier to get to 2.33 GH…
