With as much as your probably already spending, $46 is chump change.
HTC Touch Diamond soft keyboard comes to other WinMo phones {Engadget}
May 13th 2008 11:02PM Eh, it still doesn't replace the slide out QWERTY. Heck, thats the main reason i bought the phone. Oh, and it can emulate almost any other handset out there.
Only time i see myself using this touchscreen keyboard is if i'm driving and cant use two hands.
Yea, safe, i know.

Dell US hints at bringing Penryn to M1530 -- what's the holdup? {Engadget}
Mar 7th 2008 7:53PM Never did i say better specs = innovation. Better specs = which product a consumer is going to buy. And please, what are these hundreds of things leopard does that ANY user is going to use on a regular basis? You know what they call features that people grow tired of quickly or never use? Gimmicks.
And i will keep delving into the overpriced argument, as to be honest, there's nothing 'innovative' about either product. So, what are you getting for all of your money besides a different OS and a 'cooling system'?
Heres some facts for you. A 2.5Ghz MBP costs 2500$ stock, and only comes with 2GB RAM. Guess what it costs to upgrade to 4GB? $400 more. WOW. already your at $2900. Want a 7200rpm drive? Add yourself another $50. And those prices don't go down very often either.
Once penryn is available for the 1530, you'll be able to get the same processor with 4 GB of RAM and a 7200rpm (200GB) drive for at LEAST $800 less. And thats IF they mark up the penryn on the 1530. Which they shouldn't, as they didn't do so on the 1330. So, you CAN build one cheaper. I could actually add a blu ray drive, and still spend less than i would on a MBP with 4GB of RAM. MUCH LESS.
Pretty safe to say that any consumer who hasn't been hypnotized by that white apple logo, or isn't just crazy about Leopard for whatever reason is going to pick up a PC instead. Regardless of what kind of 'cooling system' either has.

Mar 7th 2008 7:07PM What Zak? You meaning to tell me that new trackpad software and an upgrade to penryn is worthy of calling something innovative? Just because you ride on the propaganda train that is Steve Jobs doesn't mean the rest of us cant see through his overpriced, gimmicky products.
Its possible to build a much cheaper product from dell or hp that will have much better specs than a MBP. The only difference would be the OS, and Leopard isn't something to brag about IMO (and yes, i realize vista isn't either).

Mar 7th 2008 4:39PM Just release it already! Ive been waiting for months!
Yea..Macs are SO innovative. Which is the reason they've looked the same for years, even after the recent update.
Dell snaps Penryn chips into Precision M6300, X9000 included {Engadget}
Feb 27th 2008 10:25PM Who cares, theres still no penryn on the 1530. This is almost as disappointing as the macbook update.
