Has anyone given thought to the possibility of a 20.1" MacBook Pro? I think it would be a welcome addition to the MacBook Pro line, and companies like Acer already make such mammoth laptops. A 24" iMac serves as a pricey television/home media center, why not have one for those on the go? While I am sure that there will be some new iPod goodness, I hope that Apple throws in a laptop revision just for kicks.

Shame on intel on this one. I'm sured the DefCon demo of the compromised MacBook was exploiting this weakness. It seems that apple will have to demand "separate but equal" drivers from manufacturers if the platform architecture switch nows brings up all sorts of problems from hackers who have cut their teeth on weak windows boxes. OS X is still quite secure, it's just a shame that sh*tty third party drivers can cause the same problems that plague XP.

It looks like it might be stereo, notice how the single wire from the headset becomes a double wire at the plug. It might go to the other earpiece, then to the stereo wire.

It is always nice to see another open source product added to the ever growing pack, but the only goods news seems to be for the developers of this product. Skype offers a simple and almost totally free service. While I am always glad to see competeition vs. the giant software rights gobbling corporations, who will benefit? Certainly not the already massive Skype user-base, who will now be subjected to updates* and upgrades* that will ultimately have them digging into their pockets. If any good is to come out of this, the code should be made public immediately, so that any benefits can be exploited and if it proves worthwhile the switch will be moderately painless. Instead, what I am sure will happen is this company will develop a parallel product, incompatible with the original, with a more robust business plan for all investors. This will come at a price for us all...

Has anyone tried running in place (a la Flashdance) to see if the sensor can tell? do you think it can interpolate jumping? like leapfrogging all over the place?

I own a pair of Air Jordan XX1 basketball shoes and they have two very interesting features that may be related... The shoe comes with a replaceable heel cushion plug that is accessible under the insole, they include an extra set of heel plugs. It also has a pouch in the tongue (presumably) for tucking in the laces. The laces are definitely not at home in this pouch, but from the look of it the Nike sport sensor would be a perfect fit. Could nike perhaps be looking to adapt the sensor for other sports? Maybe in order to accurately track a complex sport like basketball or baseball, a separate sensor is needed as well.
