  • I have a first-generation 10GB that I've used almost daily since early 2002. I use it during workouts, while walking, while driving, whatever. Never skipped. Never noticed much of a decrease in battery life.

  • I've had the same problem. For some reason they've excluded Podcasts from consideration for Smart Playlists -- even when you choose Genre="Podcast"!

  • Dealmac is always a great place to find discounts, coupons, and sale prices for just about anything Mac-related. (Not affiliated, just a happy user.)

  • ThinkSecret is reporting today that the iPod Mini will switch to flash memory in 4-6-8GB capacities, while shrinking in size and getting a color display. At the same time, they claim that the 512MB shuffle could get a price cut to as low as $69, wit…

  • Quote: Originally posted by fastfingers Seems to me if Apple were planning this out correctly we will see a PowerBook that has a new trackpad design enabling 2 buttons like the new mouse. This makes sense just because of consistency alone acro…

  • Quote: Originally posted by blue2kdave My guess is that 5 has features that are waiting for legal reasons. It would probably take something major for them to declare 5.0. Actually, there have been so many incremental improvements to version 4…
