MydigitalFc has what appears to be David Pogue’s full review of the Palm Pre, a noteworthy nugget considering that the review has yet to be published in the New York Times where Pogue works. Here are some of the highlights: The Pre, which goes on sale first in the United States on Saturday and sometime […]
Continue reading...First hands-on review of the Palm Pre
Friday, May 29, 2009
The good folks over at the Boy Genius Report got their hands on the Palm Pre and overall their take on the device is about what I expected – good, but not great. Specifically, they really liked the screen, which they described as “vibrant” and “rich”, but they felt that the keyboard left a lot […]

Saturday, May 2, 2009
A forum member over at EverythingPre was able to get his hands on a Palm Pre through a buddy of his who received a review unit. While clearly not a substitute for an in-depth review, it seems that the Pre is a worthy effort, but won’t be challenging the iPhone anytime soon. Here are his […]

Tweetie is not only the most popular Twitter client for the iPhone, it’s also one of the popular iPhone apps period. And now a Mac version is available for an introductory price of $14.95.

Thursday, January 29, 2009
Apparently quite a bit. Gizmodo goes in-depth and reports that the Artist Lessons from GarageBand are worth the 5 bucks Apple is charging. Our copy of iLife ’09 is still in the mail, so we need to rely on the reviews of others to satiate us in the meantime! Gizmodo’s final take: So is it […]
Continue reading...Is the GarageBand Lesson Store the next big thing?
Tuesday, January 27, 2009
TechCrunch reports that the GarageBand Lesson Store could be the next big thing: Apple’s Lesson Store is the perfect compromise. Each lesson offers a lengthy video of the artist discussing how to play their song section by section, which is displayed alongside the music being played (either in tab or traditional notation) and a diagram […]

Monday, January 19, 2009
The folks over at The Apple Blog have an in-depth review of iWork that’s worth checking out. Their overall verdict? They like it! I’ve tried all of these (and more), and I believe Apple has managed to strike the right balance between functionality and simplicity. Sure, there’s no online document editing, no way of seeing […]

Thursday, November 27, 2008
David Pogue of the New York Times released his review of the BlackBerry Storm today and he is less than impressed. It’s no help that the Storm shows you two different keyboards, depending on how you’re holding it (it has a tilt sensor like the iPhone’s). When you hold it horizontally, you get the full, […]
