It appears version 7.7 of iTunes is available today although it wouldn't find it when I told iTunes to "Check for updates".  I had to go here and download it.  The iPhone Application Store is also available in the new iTunes, but it isn't apparent when...

Seven days until the new iPhone 3G is available, and I'm still on the fence about upgrading. At this point I've read a variety of stories and seen lots of information regarding pricing plans and fees, but I'm still afraid I'm going to walk in to my local...

3G iPhone Announced Today

The new iPhone will be available on July 11. It comes complete with 3G network access, Maps with GPS, integration with Microsoft Exchange server for business users, and access to the new App store. We don't run an Exchange server, nor do I really care...

I've been looking for a really good RSS reader for Leopard lately.  I'm just not crazy about the built-in RSS support in Mail.  I wanted something simple but that allowed me to group posts by category or topic.  Sometimes I just want to read over...

Sync Your iPhone Wirelessly

What a great idea!  I love getting rid of cords on my desk, and I'd rather the iPhone not sync everytime I happened to put it in the cradle.  My iPhone has all the super cool wireless features such as the EDGE network and built-in wi-fi right?  It's...

You may have seen this post where I talk about the yuckiness that was my old keyboard and my thoughts on buying a new apple wireless keyboard. I went ahead and decided to buy one as I just couldn't stand looking at the old one any longer. I searched eBay...

Apple Wireless Keyboard

I'm considering spending $80 on a new apple wireless keyboard. I've had the same old school, clear case keyboard for about 5 years now. Let me put it this way - it's seen better, and cleaner days. I've thought about taking my keyboard apart and...

Since upgrading to OS 10.5 Leopard on my MacBook Pro, I've had massive problems with Microsoft Office 2004. Random shutdowns, freezes, slowdowns, and other quirky behavior happen daily. Excel even decides it just doesn't want me to be able to type in any...

iPhone Ringtones

I finally got around to playing with the new ringtone creation feature in iTunes for my iPhone. If you purchase a song for 99 cents from the Apple music store, then you can pay another 99 cents to create a ringtone from it. I soon realized that the vast...

Apple released its new operating system, Leopard, last Friday evening. I ordered my copy directly from the Apple Store online. I was a bit nervous about jumping into the deep end of the upgrade pool so quickly. Anyone who purchases software - especially...

Apple iPhone Price Drop

Apple announce a price drop on the iPhone the same day they unveiled their new line of iPods. Luckily the AT&T store where I purchased my iPhone had a 14 day return policy. A buddy of mine sent me an instant message and let me know about the drop. ...
