Little hints from apple world

Days passed, months flew, it's time for new entry. A lot of things happened lately. Got to travel a lot on the weekends, started my internship for about a month now and exams every now and then. My life has been treating me well. I've got nothing to complain apart from the fact that i am still a poor f***ing student. You know low budget, hardwork. But i guess i have got to enjoy it.

Luckily (or not?) i don't have to take part on apple battery exchange program this year. I've done it last year tho, but i thought it would be nice to get new battery every year. On the other side, i know that nothing is wrong with my battery.

I read something about Apple improved iPots. Steve Job who used to against iPot-Video is now crazy on improving it. Here are some of the improvements that i found interesting:
1. Battery life time extended from 4 hours to 6.5 - nice.
2. Instant searching - very nice.
3. Games - alright.
4. Lowered the price to $249 for 30GB - Yeah sure, still too expensive for me.

Another update from apple is iTunes. It has now that album cover feature that would flip like one of those old-time giant cd player machine. That way, you see what comes next and what are after. To read the full story, check out this website: Live from the Steve Jobs keynote its showtime.

iTV (coded name) is out next year. With this slim piece of hardware you can hook up your TV with iTunes and play dvds you just bought through iTunes. Well i guess, you'll need a pretty decent TV to be able to hook iTV.
