  • Multi-touch style pinch zooming and a few other multi-finger gesture-related trackpad features and improvements is in all likelihood all we will see from the next Macbooks.
  • That's a really excellent idea, one weakness however is you'd really need some way of hiding it yet keeping the IR remote functionality; it'd obviously be pretty likely to get stolen. I can see some third party accessories helping with this. Maybe f…

  • According to this, WWDC will begin June 10th/11th this year. Sounds reasonable.
  • Didn't the court agree with Apple Computer (as it was, then), though?
  • The difference is that in the UK at least, even the newest releases and trendiest phones are available free on all but the cheapest contracts; a consumer is usually only charged for the phone if it's a smartphone. For example, I got my k800i free on…
  • I don't see them providing user-expandable memory, that's not Apple's style at all. It'd be nice if they'd finally concede and make the battery user replaceable, though. If you noticed, they were quite quiet on battery life, not providing a standby …

  • Because it's not located in China?
  • Wouldn't it be funny if they just cancelled Macworld now?
  • My friend is a big journo type, it's basically his life, and he's always linking me to the Drudge Report and it's always accurate in its inside info. Of course, if all the info he has is this article, then take it with a pinch of salt, because then …

  • Yes, "might have got", in this sentence synonymous to "might have attained" or even "might have achieved". "Got" is the correct past participle in British english for the verb "to get". The past participle is then used with "have" as an auxillar…
