These resellers are caught between a rock and a hard place: Popularity of Apple's products drove people to their locations (good) but also drove Apple to build their own controlled stores (bad). Companies and retail stores evaporate & cease to e…

The popular wisdom is that a rising tide floats all boats. That is to say, the new Apple Store will increase business for everyone. Not necessarily. I worked at the Pheasant Lane store in Nashua, NH and it is a booming success (in part, due to its b…

That's the store in Nashua, New Hampshire. Rockingham, the only other New Hampshire store and about 15 miles as the crow flies from Pheasant Lane, will also open at 4am.

This media hack is obviously--like 95% of them--a bleeding Lib. Libs LOVE anything 'urban' and they HATE anything 'suburban.' It's why every Lib's dream is 'high-speed rail' that connects urban centers.

I recall the days when magazines like TIME and Newsweek were must-read publications, and important communicators of thought. But their political bias got the best of them, just like it did with major daily newspapers. Today, millions or readers have…

As anyone who has been to a movie theater will say, black is better than white. Your eye focuses on the screen when the edges are black. White distracts. Which is why the push for white puzzles me.

I think this iPad 2 will be a monster hit rather than a modest hit if it appears likely that no 'iPad 3' will be forthcoming later in the year. Or, the 'iPad 3 could indeed come along late in 2011 and Apple then dubs it 'iPad Pro.' That way, the iPa…

If I was among the maddening crowd who bought an iPad as a holiday gift, I'd be pretty upset to see the new one debut so soon thereafter. The iPhone I can understand, but I think iPad 2 needs to come out later to avoid angering the fans who knew a n…

I'm flummoxed as to how a device more than a year late can be construed as being 'way ahead.' Canadian math, I guess.

Is it even legal for Verizon and Apple to enter into some financial agreement to keep the iPhone away from other carriers? It sounds like this would be open to all sorts of legal challenges.

This is going the way of 'George,' that similarly haughty publication that depended on urban, east-coast haughty elites as its customer base. There weren't enough of 'that kind of people' to fund a sustainable operation, and there won't be here, eit…

Apple is right; this problem is a matter of 'unsettled science.' Whole divisions of companies (and entire companies themselves) are approaching the issue from different perspectives because the scientific problem hasn't yet been 'solved.' People kno…

Ballmer is probably a smart guy, but he misses the mark. The 'gadget' is really half the story. Be it the iPod or the iPad, what 'does it' for Apple is the content-delivery schema that supports those devices. MP3 players abound, but only Apple decid…

If I'm on the verge of buying a MacBook Pro sometime in August, will I get this? Or will I have to pay the $79?

One of the hallmarks of Apple is that they focus on benefits rather than features. That's right out of the Marketing 101 textbook, but so many companies fail to embrace that. I like that Apple focuses on what technology can DO FOR PEOPLE (or what it…

Would the buyer of one of these tablets be someone who already has a MacBook and / or a Mac, or someone who has neither? And is it geared to special types of individuals rather than mainstream ones? In other words, someone who might have a Wacom …

It sounds to me as though that $50 is practically all profit. Apple seems to be saying, 'Be careful what you wish for.'

The Sansa Clip is a wonderful little product, coming from someone who is now on his fifth iPod. Quite simply, the Sana Clip excels with audio books and the iPod doesn't. It has everything to do with the WMA format, which allows me to download free a…

I have no firm evidence to back this up; just a gut feel. But the aggressive price-points, the wholly-new aluminum body, perhaps colors, the 'I-can-have-my-cake-and-eat-it-too' Windows capability, and just the sheer 'Mac-is-back' feeling will conspi…

Even if this unveiling comes on the 21st or the 28th, will Apple have compromised itself that much? The start of the holiday buying season still lies ahead by four weeks rather than six. I also agree that if there's no advance word by now, then no e…
