I have the same issue, perhaps even worse. I am an aspiring writer as well as an aspiring photographer -- I currently have a macbook pro 13 that I love, but it's STILL too heavy to carry around every day (I'm such a wuss!) and ironically, I now worr…

My iphone was knocked out of my hands on...a subway platform! Luckily my reaction time is quick and I'm not one to stand near the edge, so I retrieved the phone with only a bounce on the floor (no case). One can only wonder what would have happened …

I have the 3g and a dying battery, so clearly "4" is 4 me...however I will also post my somewhat obvious observations: 1. Clearly the "4" seems naked in it's name. Sets up a 4G in 364 days, works on verizon 4g network, timed to hit at expiration of…

I'm confused about the ipad case situation! When I bought my iphone, I started with a big case that surrounded the phone, then I realized that such a case destroys the sleek design elements Apple worked so hard to implement, so I went with the thinn…

Thanks for your advice. I appreciate it. I guess I'll wait and see how good the new MBPs are when they come out. Quote: Why an EXternal drive? Why not replace your current INternal one with one with a (much) greater capacity? That's both cheape…

I'm wondering how the new product might fare as an input device, ie for taking notes, light typing/writing. Do you think it could replace the writers journal notebook? It would clearly be light enough and small enough, but as I type this post on an …

I went through a similar analysis recently, and just purchased a Panasonic PV-GS300 for around $500.00. It's a bit more pricey but I wanted the 3 CCD's. I might have gone with your selection if I weren't so...well...lazy. I stopped my search at the …
