What is New Under The Sun

Apple host a special event on 12 th September 2012 to launch the most popular smartphone on the planet, the iPhone, and Apple name the new iPhone, iPhone 5. Beside the iPhone, Apple also taking advantage to launch the new line up of iPod and iTunes. We have a newly design iTunes store, the 7 th generation iPod Nano and all new 5 th generation iPod Touch. I've just finish run through the podcast video of the event and obviously iPhone 5 did not bring much of a surprise, thanks to the leaks flying around the internet. I not saying iPhone 5 is not good and iPhone 5 indeed a better phone than iPhone 4S, no doubt about that. The amount of details Apple put in to designing iPhone 5 as a better and the best iPhone ever is just phenomenal as ever and it never fail to impress people. I must say, only those who used iPhone truly understanding how great the phone is. I believe the new iPod touch and the newly design 7 th iPod Nano steal the show. I can see some little ...

With Apple iTunes Store available for Malaysia, we can now enjoy the fullness of Apple TV, which was make available the same day at iTunes Store. There is a reason why iTunes and Apple TV was launched at the same day and I will explain later. Anyway, back to the Apple TV, t o describe the device, I would use words like small, powerful and efficient. Apple TV might seem to be on the down side if compare to other media player available in the market, I will explain why as well, but no doubt that Apple TV deliver the best of Apple experience and quality.

Most people might have notice the news or the changes at iTunes. Yes we are able to access the content at iTunes Store and finally after n years of wait. So I asked, is this good news or bad news? Honestly I have mixed feeling about Apple iTunes Store. The good news about iTunes Store Finally an easy way to access my favorite music and songs. Personally I enjoy music and songs but I do not enjoy to buy the entire album cause not all the songs in the album is my like. I prefer to pick songs. Do I have options for online music download? Actually I do (Please note that I am not referring to Torrents or other illegal download, I am not encouraging that and I support original). Most of the telco in Malaysia do offer their own music download service but the selection is limited and limited to their subscriber as well, and I guess we always welcome the largest music store in the world to be on board.

I believe I do not need much introduction on the most popular iPhone game, Infinity Blade. However I do wish to highlight the apps is currently $0.99 for a limited time. Do grabe it before the offer end. Enjoy You may download the apps from iTune

Just when I thought I finish reading all Apple new launch yesterday, it seem that I missed out the Mac mini. Yes, Mac mini also being upgrade with new hardware and spec. Latest Intel processor, Thunderbolt, and the most interesting, a discrete graphic card!? and no super drive!? Mac mini was marketed as a bridge for PC/Microsoft window user to cross over to Apple Mac and it did a beautiful job. The first gen Mac mini bring a new definition for small form factor PC. People are being creative on utilize Mac mini at different place and occasion. Put a Mac mini in a car and you can do magic with it. Put a Mac mini in the living room and you can enjoy movie streaming on your large TV and comfort sofa set :D.

Today, there is a new and faster MacBook Air available at Apple Store. Starting from RM3099, MacBook Air is the most affordable notebook from Apple. But wait, what about MacBook? people said. If you have the chance to log in Apple Store you may notice the old MacBook is off the shelves. This mark the begin of the new MacBook Air era as the entry level offer from Apple. I guess this is a good sign as MacBook is old and loosing its ground, to other more affordable yet trendy notebook. RIP MocBook. Beside MacBook Air, Apple has also make available the long awaited Mac OS X Lion. Yeah! The new OS contain tons of new and cool features. The Apple IPad inspired App LaunchPad, auto save for document, full screen apps, etc. I guess the most important breakthrough introduced to Mac OS is the Mac App Store. The Mac OS X Lion bring a lot of IPad and IPhone user interface experience to desktop. I am looking forward for Mac OS X Lion. I believe ther...
