Welcome to Macenstein’s “Mac Chick of the Month”. Each month we feature a different die-hard, Mac-loving girl who is (almost) as well designed as the Apple products they love. This month we present you with the lovely Teemaree, a California based Recording Artist, Model, Actress, Dancer, DJ and long-time Mac fan.
Happy Valentine’s Day!
Teemaree
Teemaree is currently the host of the first ever “Go-Go Reality Show” Sweat, Boots, and Booty Shorts, and is one half of the hip-hop duo Dynamite Jive. As an Artist, Teemaree is always bringing you something new. Currently in the studio recording for the third Dynamite Jive album, you can also see her on television in various commercials, modeling in print and on the web, and dancing in hot spots around the nation.

“Being in the Entertainment Industry requires a constant connection to all the stuff that’s happening in and around Hollywood,” says Teemaree. “I love my MacBook because it is beautiful and powerful. It allows me to get stuff done without any hangups or wait time. When it’s the end of the business day and all the submissions, photos, e-mails, and website updates are all finished, my MacBook keeps things fun for me with iPhoto and iTunes as well as the peace of mind I get knowing that I can cruise through myspace and not worry about viruses.”

2007 is off to a great start for Teemaree, with a Dynamite Jive nationwide tour, more episodes of Sweat, Boots, and Booty Shorts, and a lot more appearances as a model and actress (and of course, being featured as our Mac Chick of the Month).

Awww, aren’t they cute! Apple releases colorful iPod Shuffles

Apple today released some colorful updates to their iPod Shuffle line. In addition to Apple’s standard silver, there are now pink, orange, green, and blue models available for your Valentine’s Day shopping pleasure. The updates seem to be solely cosmetic though, as the capacity still tops out at 1GB, and the feature set and price seem identical to last year’s models (well, they DO have those swell new earbuds). The new shuffles are priced at $79, and available now from the Apple Store.

Apple today made history by adding an iPod game to the list of free downloads from the iTunes store. The game, “Vortex“, is being offered in “demo” mode for free. The Demo contains the first 2 fully playable levels of the 360° brick-bashing game (think Breakout, developed by Steve Wozniak, but rounder).

The 22MB download requires a 5th generation iPod and software update 1.2 or later (we still have no idea why you can’t play these games in iTunes).You can download the Vortex Demo here.

USATODAY: Verizon passed on the iPhone

When the iPhone was announced earlier this month, many Verizon customers complained at being left out in the cold. Apple’s exclusive deal with Cingular meant Verizon (and other companies) would be unable to offer the iPhone for at least 2 years, a fact that has many of their customers contemplating jumping ship.

However, according to USATODAY, Verizon was actually approached before Cingular, but turned Apple down after hearing the long list of demands and relatively few benefits that Apple offered in the deal.

While Cingular and Apple are not discussing the terms of their deal, Verizon’s VP Jim Gerace says Apple wanted not only total control over the distribution, sales, and service of the iPhone, but also a cut of monthly subscription fees. Verizon felt a deal with Apple would alienate a large portion of its other retail partners, such as Wal-Mart, Best Buy and other smaller retailers who offer Verizon Wireless phones and plans.
