>Cook also panned 7-inch tablets. "We don't think they're good products, and we would never make one." Inches schminches, it's a 20cm iPad. Apple has gone metric: 25 & 20cm iPads and a 10cm iPhone. Now for the rest of the country! As to iPa…

Good reply. A Claris Homepage for HTML 5 .. now that'd be great! (Never too keen on iWeb: easy, elegant but very limiting).

The colorful BG? A Painting application (a la Appleworks) for the (retina optimised) iWork? That'd be nice.. so long as the whole suite gets an upgrade. Little suggests the iPad air (mini?) the Mac Mini. More suggests the iMac and maybe Mac Pro. A…

It's a violet haze (purple isn't a spectral colour, it's a mixture of blue and red) and it's caused by lens flare: reflection and scattering from lens-element surfaces exposed to oblique light. It's the reason real cameras have lens hoods and why pr…

David Murray was on the OzBC TV last night commenting on the Reserve Bank cutting its base rate. Impressed me as a genuine heavy hitter in the business world.

That's not chromatic aberration, it's a simple case of lens flare: light scattering from surfaces in the lens array. Violet the shortest wavelength in the visible and is scattered the most. The smaller the lens the greater the flare per surface. The…

Wasn't Jobs praised for skating to where the puck is going not where's it's been. Well the puck was stuck near Google for ages and still no turn-by-turn. A bit of pain now a lot of gain later. Good decision, Cook et al!

Well put, Digi! Doesn't affect me coz I keep a Garmin on the car windscreen (it's cheap, I wouldn't like to inadvertently leave my phone there).. but I do feel for those who'll have a underdone mapping solution until Apple and its users get Maps u…

Although I've only tested in Melbourne, iOS6 uses TomTom data for actual street navigation in Australia and it works just fine. Also the case for Canada and USA according the credits: http://gspa21.ls.apple.com/html/attribution.html I'm guessing fro…

I've been peeking around using maps here in Victoria Australia and it's pretty much on par with Google maps (a mature product), except faster and smoother in operation. Clearly, this is not the case in parts of the UK. .. a work in progress…

At 0.4 kg each it would cost about 30 cents each unit to ship from China to USA. But that 's a lot of planes needed: only 2500 iPhones per tonne means about 100,000 per airliner. Or 10 planeloads per million.

The invention of the /s tag is proof again that Yanks are hopeless at detecting irony. [sarcasm - the use of irony to mock or convey contempt]

You want the puppy to poo on the carpet?! No wonder you're a solipsist.

Cheap "in house" labor?! Nothing new here; it goes on in a lot of places in various forms. Doing it to school-kids seems a bit harsh but it's par for the course at university level. It's actually a bit of a scandal in the German university s…

I too use VMWare .. it plus Win7 fires up in just 16 seconds on the 13" MBAir (with ML). It does everything I have it for (running ChemBioOffice and opening oddball windas-only files) without crashing or complaining. Parallels I haven't tried coz …

Funny when you think about it: Samesong trying to refute charges of copying by slavish copying of Apple's courtroom tactics.
