If you thought Google Suggest is cool, you have got to see Google Maps (does not work on Safari yet. So se Firefox).
Goodbye Yahoo! Maps.
Infrared Vision
This is what I would look like to a 25 meter tall killer robot with infrared vision:
…in case you were wondering.
(Yes, it’s really me. My nose is noticeable colder than the rest of my body. Could it be because it’s so big?)
Dilemma
To wait, or not to wait: That is the question.
Update: Yesterday I placed the order for the new Powerbook. I’m easily tempted. Jaramillo did too, he’s also replacing an iBook. Domene got one too. Welcome Domene.
Update: I got my new PB today. It’s great!
Oh no!
Today I travel to tropical paradise Cleveland OH. Temperature: -6 (feels like -13). Lovely.
Of course, that’s Celsius, but it’s quite cold.
Fantastic Four teaser trailer
The Fantastic Four trailer has been posted on Apple’s Quicktime Trailers website.
I think Ben Grimm looks like he’s made of rubber instead of rock (after all he probably is made of rubber). And Doctor Doom does not even appear to be King and Evil Ruler of Latveria! What the hell were they thinking! Shit it looks like they’re going to ruin this one.
As long as they don’t screw Superman up.
See number 2
This is straight from Apple’s website:
The Ultimate in ease of use or avoiding a lawsuit?
PS: Mac mini is cool… but sadly no Powerbook speedbumps for me (yet).
MacWorld San Francisco – The Analysis
Two and a half days to go until Steve Jobs delivers his keynote speech at the opening of MacWorld. Perhaps more than ever (or at least since I have followed Apple in a disturbingly close way that borders in stalker-style obsession) the rumors are all over the place.
This is what we have so far:
– New XServe and XSan a week before the keynote… Making some room for other announcements Steve????
– Rumors about an Apple-branded Office replacement.
– Rumors about cheap(er) iPods with flash memory.
– Rumors about a $500 (gasp!) Mac (will I live to see that day?).
– Apple sues rumor websites for posting trade secrets (so is it true then?).
– No webcast of the keynote, and Apple Stores will not show it either (why are you punishing us)?
– Today at CES, Motorola shows off a new iTunes-compatible cell phone with an iPod-like interface. We’ll see more of that on Monday for sure. Marcos is a very very very stupid man that just renewed a one year contract with T-Mobile. Very very stupid.
– Somebody leaks pictures (and a video!) of the iHome. This looks to me like a (not very elaborate hoax). Why? “Media Centre” (in the U.S. it’s “Center”). Also, the CD slot looks too wide, and the ports look Photoshopped on. The corners don’t look right. Still… nice try.
Will they deliver my new speed-bumped Powerbook? We’ll see….
