iPhone firmware 1.1.4 released! And the new features are…um… nothing?
Well, it doesn’t exactly add Flash support, or any discernible new features at all, but Apple has released the highly anticipated (and therefore highly disappointing) iPhone firmware 1.1.4. All that is mentioned under What’s New is “bug fixes”, which if it stops Safari from crashing on my iPhone while I listen to music, I’m all for. Read More
Elgato releases EyeTV 3.0.1 – The begining of the end for TitanTV?
Well, nothing incredibly major hear, but as a fan of EyeTV I’m always happy to see “numerous bug fixes” listed in an update, even if I haven’t encountered them yet. The big news in this update seems to be new support for the XMLTV Electronic Programming Guide. The XML guide seems to have the potential to be very cool, and looks like it’s perhaps showing...

Apple announces it will keep stringing us along on the new MacBook Pros
Well, once again, a Tuesday morning has started with Apple’s “We’ll be back soon” Post-It note on their store, and ended without new MacBooks. The “big” news today was a new 2 GB shuffle, a price drop on the 1 GB model, and a new Xsan. Kind of an odd combination of updates, assuming the lower shuffle price isn’t meant to encourage you...

Leopard Graphics Update is recommended for all users and improves the stability and compatibility of your Mac. This... Read More

Bitch and you shall receive – Apple fixes “Adobe-killing” QuickTime bug
Apple today released QuickTime 7.4.1, an update which “addresses security issues and improves compatibility with third-party applications.

Well, you might not know it from looking at Apple’s homepage, but two of Apple’s hottest items, the iPhone and iPod touch, both got upgrades today.
