Why the App Store is working just right {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Oct 8th 2009 12:25PM "I'm not saying apple needs to promote my app. I am saying that the app store is the only place most people go to get apps (except for us geeks) so if Apple doesn't, no one will. Also, in the music industry, there has always been a good place to get great indie music: college radio stations and indie cd stores."
Not to discount the problems you've faced, but isn't your analogy more like this-
App store:Best Buy as Web Sites for Geeks:Indy Record Stores
I don't think most indy music bands make money either.
CNN jumps on the news app bandwagon {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Sep 30th 2009 5:30PM This is a relevant point, but with the limited real estate on an iPod Touch/iPhone screen you need to be REALLY careful about putting ads in a paid app.
Just as relevant is competition, and what others are offering for free w/ ads. I'm not indignant about this, but I doubt I will ever buy this.
BlackBerry Desktop Manager for Mac on September 25th? {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Sep 18th 2009 4:28PM I installed that beta on my MBP with Leopard, and had no problems syncing with my Pearl. Of course YMMV, I'm just happy I sync'ed all my contacts and now will wait for the official release before syncing again.
iPod touch gets more storage and speed {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Sep 9th 2009 4:31PM The DS has none- iPod Touch wins!
Apple adds video camera, larger screen to new 5G iPod nano {Engadget}
Sep 9th 2009 2:22PM Now there's almost nothing separating the new Nano from the iPhone...
BlackBerry Desktop Manager for Mac leaks out in beta form {Engadget}
Sep 4th 2009 3:30PM It's a Universal app (according to 'get info')
Panasonic goes rangefinder with the Lumix DMC-GF1 {Engadget}
Sep 2nd 2009 1:18AM skyring already mentioned this, but it bears repeating. The Panasonic GF1/G1/GH1 have DRAMATICALLY better AF than the EP1, and a much better LCD with EVF option.
Purported Canon EOS 7D poster, lenses turn up online {Engadget}
Aug 28th 2009 5:12PM It's a 1.6x crop. I also found the name '7D' to be confusing as I thought it would be a 5D successor. But this seems to slot between the 5D and the 50D.
iPhone 3GS totally capable of 1080p video playback {Engadget}
Aug 20th 2009 7:26PM I guess the right term would be to say it can 'decode' some 720p and 1080p videos. Whether it will ever be able to output 720/1080 video through the dock to an external screen remains to be seen...
First Look: Keymote for iPhone / iPod touch takes control of your Mac {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Aug 17th 2009 11:53AM I think the main benefit of this app is not to control your computer, but to give you quick access to special keyboard combination commands in apps such as Photoshop, Final Cut, etc. For general use it would not seem as useful, unless you have problems remembering Command-C and Command-P. ;-)
