Logos for Mac worth the wait for Bible students (TUAW.com)

Aug 27th 2009 11:27AM I think somepeople are forgetting that it's not just people who believe in a certain religion who studies their texts - there are atheists who study religion and faith too as an academic discipline who would probably find this software useful.

A Kafkaesque announcement of an Apple keynote the week of September 7th (TUAW.com)

Aug 17th 2009 5:48AM No, because you have to open the iPod packaging to get at the paper label with the barcode on it which you have to submit with the rebate form, which is inside the plastic pack all iPods come in now.

SimCity for iPhone: A week later (TUAW.com)

Dec 27th 2008 2:11PM It's so EA can change the price of the US version without it automatically changing the prices of the versions in other countries. For example, when they have a sale on the US version on Spore Origins, its price isn't lowered on the international versions.

3G iPhone Data Poll: How much data have you used? (TUAW.com)

Sep 16th 2008 5:11AM I've had my iPhone 3G for about 3 weeks, and used 63.0MB up and 895MB down, so quite a lot! It helps that the O2 3G signal is very good and fast where I live in the UK, and EDGE isn't too slow either.

Jul 10th 2008 7:34AM "awful" originally meant "to fill with awe" before its meaning
changed, so that may be why it's listed as a synonym for "awesome". See:

Nokia on iPhone: what, no 3G? (Engadget)

Jan 10th 2007 6:52AM Well, the new Nokia N800 is roughly comparable to the iPhone (as an internet browsing/media device), and that doesn't have 3G either, or any other cellular capabilities.

Shure shows off its new SE210, SE310, SE420 and SE530 earphones (Engadget)

Jan 7th 2007 3:51AM I ordered a pair of E4c's a few days ago and they haven't even been delivered yet... :-( Oh well, I don't suppose there's that much difference, the E4c's will still be great, but I could've saved a bunch of money if I'd got them after this had come out, or get the SE420 instead. I live in the UK so everything's really expensive - the E4c's list price is £250 ($500) here. I saved some money by buying them from the US on eBay, but that means there's no possibility of cancelling, as they should making their way over the Atlantic right now - oh well, I wouldn't have been able to wait until Feb anyway.

Nokia N800 Internet Tablet unboxed (Engadget)

Jan 6th 2007 6:19AM Sorry, I was wrong - the 770 had a 4.1" screen too, so it's probably the same screen with 800x480 resolution.

Nokia N800 Internet Tablet unboxed (Engadget)

Jan 6th 2007 2:31AM Reading the back from the high-res Flickr photo, it says: "Easy internet connection over Wi-Fi or compatible mobile phone". Spotting the Bluetooth logo on the back as well, that must mean that it links to a mobile phone, using it as a modem via Bluetooth to get on the internet when it's not using Wi-Fi. It also says it's got a 4.13" (10.5 cm) touchscreen, which is smaller than the 770's, which was 7" I believe. It doesn't state the actual resolution though.
