ifixit, the same guys who brought us the beautiful disassembly of the 3G iPhone, have gutted the MacBook and MacBook Pro (Pro pictured here). But beyond the pretty photos, they’ve discovered some…

All citizens should be familiar with the magnificent personage of our nation’s great hero, Garriott, Lord British.

It’s a shame.
But this here thing is destined to fail unfortunately.
At first it seems a good idea but when you do a James Brown and “break it down” you see there are many stumbling blocks.
The OLO Computer is reportedly thinking of bringing to market a netbook-styled device that seems to require users to plop their iPhone / [...]

According to an anonymous source, Apple’s iPhone will soon be sold at Wal-Mart. Boy Genius Report’s insider says that sales will begin on November 15.
The truth or falsity of this claim will be a nice litmus test of either (a) how far retailers will go to accommodate Apple, or (b) how far Apple will go [...]

The official announcement of the Blackberry Storm for the Verizon and Vodafone networks confirmed the phone’s lack of WiFi. This has some folks condemning RIM’s decision to exclude WiFi as a connectivity option on the phone with some even saying it’s a deal-breaker. This got me to thinking about WiFi on phones in general and [...]

There it is again. Like a junkie hidden inside, needing its fix, something lit up at the sight of Motorola’s VC6096, even though it’s just another ugly handheld computer. And yet the sense of palpable excitement will not subside: I must hold it, play with it, and see if it’s any better than its legion [...]

It seems that Research In Motion may have Apple to thank for the delay of its new BlackBerry Bold handheld to be released by AT&T. AT&T has become understandably gunshy when it comes to product releases after the 3G problems with the latest iPhone. As a result, the Associated Press is reporting that RIM’s CEO [...]

I performed a Jailbreak on my original iPhone way back when and since that time it has become progressively more difficult to Jailbreak the latest iPhone builds. I’ve been reading about how much easier it is lately, though, so I charged up my iPhone 3G, synced it to iTunes so that I would have the [...]

This is a concept phone that ranks high on the cool-o-meter!
The Fujitsu device shown at CEATEC lets you to separate your screen and touchscreen keypad in whatever configuration you like.
This means that they can be used separately (one bit in each of your ultra-skinny jeans front pockets) or stuck together by magnets, and where you stick the [...]
