Journalists Cover Microsoft, Using Macs

It’s not an easy time for Microsoft — with Steve Ballmer having to field questions about being “buffoons” and an “evil empire”  at the shareholder’s meeting (.doc) — so when they get together “the world’s most influential technology pundits and online writers” (nb: we weren’t invited) for Mobius to discuss super-secret mobile tech you’d think [...]

Review: Voices Is Today’s Best Thing Ever, Grab It Now While It’s Cheap

New on the App Store is Voices from the clever folk at Tap Tap Tap. You can guess what it does.

Open it up, pick a silly voice. Helium is pretty silly. A microphone appears and the app even clears your throat for you (try it, you’ll see what I mean). Now speak your brains, and [...]

Review: Sony Walkman S540 Series Video MP3 Player

Press releases, you will hardly be surprised to hear, are rarely very interesting. But one arrived in my inbox a couple of weeks ago that made me double-take.
“Sony’s S Series Walkman,” it chattered, “is a serious challenger to the iPod Nano.” Gosh, really? Perhaps the Cult had better have a look at one, then, despite [...]

Prince’s iPod Touch – Get Delirious

prince_pod.jpg

950 lucky – if that’s the right word – fans of the artist formerly christened Prince Rogers Nelson have the opportunity to get a limited edition iPod Touch bundled with their purchase of The Prince Opus, a $2,100 book of photographs produced by Kraken Opus, a British publisher whose aim is to create the “most epic, stunning, iconic publications ever seen in the world.”

One cannot tell from the promotional material how many GB the iPod Touch holds, but it comes pre-loaded with a 15 song live soundtrack from Prince’s 21 night 2007 performances at London’s O2 arena, as well as a 40 minute movie from the shows, made by the diminutive star himself.

    Who?

    You’re gonna laugh, but damn that’s hot. I wish I had the kinda cash to blow on that.

    I used to really appreciate his talent, but since he now lets his prejudices be known, I’m over the purped (sp.) one.
    He didn’t seem to mind using gay mystique one little bit to generate controversy and sales. oh the naive 80s.
    Phallic guitars, Liza hair & mascara, tailored pantsuits, …well, I guess I’d wear high heels too if I was that purple.

    Yes, there’s no better way to enjoy breathtaking photography – the sweeping vistas, the intimate portraits, the stunning colors, than on my vast 6-square inches of screen.

    Screw the high-quality paper, the expensive inks, the decades of printing expertise used to make a (giggle) book(!). For my 2 grand I get to use all 65 thousand colors on my iPod, including a white as clean and bright as the cheapest recycled copier paper!

    Though I gotta admit I like the purple, even if it’s a bit hackneyed.

    For that absurd price, I hope someone leaks the photos
