Curse you, TwelveSouth! You keep coming up with ways to make me spend my hard-earned money.
This time, it’s a wonderfully unique sleeve for the MacBook line, the BookBook. This US$79.99 sleeve looks like an antique leather-bound book, but it wraps around your Apple-made pride and joy to give it a level of class it hasn’t [...]

If you’ve been following mainstream news today, then it’s likely you’ve seen the story doing the rounds on new Apple tablet rumors, spurred by a note sent to clients from Oppenheimer analyst Yair Reiner. Never heard of him? That’s not surprising, since he has no real connection to Apple, and his job mainly consists of [...]

Believe it or not, we first heard of SDXC nearly a year ago. Aside from a highly guarded chip spotted at CeBIT, though, we’ve yet to see any of those cards in the flesh. Thankfully for the impatient among us, it seems as if the SD Specification 4.0 is well on its way to being [...]
