MacBook Airs shipping {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Jan 31st 2008 10:35AM Ordered mine right after keynote - 1.8, hd, superdrive. Got all excited yesterday with an email from Apple. They shipped the superdrive - which of course we now know is useless without the Airbook.

Dash Express now for pre-order, $600 {Engadget}
Dec 17th 2007 1:07AM I was one of the beta testers - while as you'd expect, the beta units had their quirks, this looks to be a better physical design, and based upon all the feedback they solicited, I'm sure they've created something that will appeal to a lot of people - a lot of real drivers' opinions went into the design!
The Yahoo local built in is actually incredibly useful. You type anything in from a business name to a category, and within a couple of screen touches you are on your way. The ETA is the most accurate I've ever seen, as it uses current data from other Dash units as well as historical information to calculate travel speeds along your route.
Having said that, $600 is a lot, and I already have the lookup features on my iphone and can type the result in myself to a cheaper unit with no additional monthly subscription.

Sync your iPhone with Microsoft Entourage {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Jul 20th 2007 1:36AM I don't have the i-phone - yet, but, my ipod picks up my exchange calendar and contacts via the entourage and mac sync connection - I figured the iphone would too. Unfortunately, we still can't get the iphone to authenticate with our exchange server for email (imap) so it's still a moot point for me.

Survey points to Blu-ray negativity, attributed to Sony's "heavy handed" approach {Engadget}
Dec 7th 2006 12:45PM I've seen an amazing Blue Ray movie in a store - on a $4,000 TV, $1,200 player, $1,000 power conditioner, etc. - looked great.
I just BOUGHT a 1080 SXRD (thanks Sony!) and the $200 HD DVD for my xbox360 - came with King Kong - AMAZING. First time in years I feel like watching a disk instead of broadcast HD....
HD DVD is the way to go - especially if you already have a 360.
