8 Hour Battery Changes Everything
ZD Net's Robin Harris says:
"The new 17"
MacBook Pro has a non-removable, 8 hour battery that Apple claims
can recharge 3x more times than standard batteries and has a 5 year
life. Are they nuts?"
"Removable batteries are a kludge, not a feature. The only reason
you want a removable battery is that a single battery's life is too
short....
"An 8 hour battery life totally changes the user experience....

best notebook you can buy, won for the second year in a row. The iPhone
won for the first time, having added important business-oriented

Solid-state Drive Prices Vary - a Lot
Cnet's Brooke
Crothers reports:
"Some solid-state drives are more equal than others - or, to put it
another way, command higher prices than rival drives, despite being
seemingly quite similar."
"At the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, SanDisk said it
would start shipping 240 GB SSDs in 'mid 2009,' priced at only
$499....
"At the Toshiba booth, however, the story was very different. A
Toshiba representative said his company's comparable 256 GB SSDs are
priced at $800...."

Former Governor Mike Huckabee Gets a MacBook

"In what may be the only opinion that Mike Huckabee and I actually

switched to a Mac. In his segment, after dissing an airline and a
computer company that he'd had bad experiences with, he lauded his new
experience of moving to the Mac."

Nebraska State Senators' Go MacBook Air
The
Omaha World-Herald's Paul Hammel reports:
"Does size really matter?
"Issues of size versus extra cost have been raised about the
purchase of new laptop computers for Nebraska state senators - although
the purchase has plenty of defenders within the Capitol.
"About 70 new Apple MacBook
Air computers were purchased this session for state legislators at
a cost of $1,524 each....
"At least one state senator, Tony Fulton of Lincoln, has questioned
the purchase, saying the Legislature could have managed with less than
'designer laptops,' particularly during these tough economic times.
"The state might have been able to buy laptops for $400 to $500
each, said Fulton, an engineer...."

8 Hour Battery 17" MacBook Pro's Best Feature
Tech Radar's
Graham Barlow says:
"The best thing about the new MacBook is its 8-hour battery life
"...utilising Apple's trademark unibody enclosure, cut from a single
piece of aluminium.
"And in your hands, that's exactly what it feels like - a bigger
version of the 15-inch MacBook Pro. It's sturdy, elegant and a real
work horse. You get the new glass Multi-Touch trackpad with all the
gestures built-in and a similar array of ports to the 15-inch model,
which means there's only a FireWire 800 port, and no FireWire 400 port.
You do get an additional USB port though.
"There is one visual addition worthy of note: the MacBook Pro comes
with a high-res 1,920 x 1,200 pixel LED-backlit display, but it seems
like Apple has been listening to its 'pro' customers who hated the more
consumer-friendly glossy screens and it is giving you the option of
selecting either a standard glossy display or an anti-glare
display....
"The new battery has been completely redesigned by Apple's engineers
to mean the longer battery life doesn't increase either the weight or
the size of the notebook - the sacrifice necessary to achieve this is
that the battery can't be removed by the end user...."

5" OQO Model 2+ Ultra Portable Handheld PC Uses
Full OLED Display
PR:
Dynamism has announced the arrival of the OQO model 2+ ultra portable,
handheld PC with an OLED 5" touchscreen running at 800 x 480
resolution
The OQO model 2+ is a super-light PC designed for ultra-portability.
The model 02+ is the first PC ever released to feature a full OLED
display. This particular OLED is a 5" touchscreen running at 800 x 480.
The pixel density and color quality are fantastic, and it supports
zoom-out in interpolated mode to 1024 x 768. (The model 02+ supports a
1900x1200 external display, as well.)
The OQO model 2+ measures 5.6 x 3.3 x 1.0in (142 x 84 x 25mm) and
weighs less than 1 lb. (less than 450g). (The exact sub-1 lb. weight
can vary by configuration.) To get an idea how small this is, fold a
standard A4 sheet of paper (regular copy paper) into a quarter of its
size; that has about the same footprint as this PC. In addition to the
touchscreen, input methods include a slide-out backlit keyboard and
hub-style pointing device.
Despite the size, the device features plenty of power: an Intel Atom
1.86 GHz CPU, 2 GB RAM, and 120 GB HDD (or 60 GB SSD). The
optional Gobi WWAN module is a since feature that supports all major
wireless networks: Verizon, Sprint, AT&T, T-Mobile, etc. (Both

Anti-Glare Film for MacBook and 15" MacBook
Pro
PR: The latest generation of Apple laptops are
equipped with a stunning LCD display enclosed in a beautiful glass
surface. However, for some users, this aesthetically pleasing finish
can compromise the functionality of their device due to the glare that
reflects off the glossy glass finish.
With the ideals of functionality in mind, Power Support releases the
Anti-glare Film for the MacBook Pro.
Made with the highest quality materials and cutting edge adhesive
technologies, this custom fit, die cut, matte finish screen protection
film will help to reduce glare, reduce the impacts of finger prints,
and prevent scratches and scuffs.
The Anti-glare film does not have negative impacts on the visual
output of the LCD screen and is easy to install. This one piece of film
can drastically improve the functionality and usability of your MacBook
Pro.

- MacBook Pro 15" Anti-Glare Film $34.95

Floater Stand for Smart Notebook Computing
PR: If
you connect your notebook computer to a large screen, at work or home,
Floater is designed for you. It combines high technology with elegant
styling. Close your MacBook Pro, connect a keyboard, a screen and a
mouse, and you have created a perfect working environment.
The Floater's parts are machined from a single block of aluminum,
which lends it great stability and optimum cooling power by spreading
the heat around.
The two small
panels around your computer are of minimal height and width, but
sufficient to meet the product's two requirements; to hold your
computer perfectly, and to let you set it up as easily as possible.
MacBook Pro is a computer of rare beauty. The Floater is designed to
complement this beauty. Floater is a combination of various parts, each
one machined from a block of Aluminum. The whole structure gives a
floating sensation, which belies its perfect stability.
This product has been created using a unique technique of metal
sculpture. Every component offers the strength and solidity of metal,
and the pure lines of the design give an impression of lightness.
The side
panels are as narrow as possible to ensure perfect stability and the
easiest fit. It may look unstable, but the Floater will not move. The
reason for this great stability is the precision, to a tenth of a
millimeter, used to calculate the right gap between the two panels so
Floater and MacBook Pro fit together snugly. The inside of the panels
is covered with very thin sheets of silicon that protect the computer
without interfering with cooling performance.
And, since every MacBook Pro is unique, 2mm room has been left for
adjustment where the panels join.
The cutouts you see on the base of Floater let your cables through
the spaces and you will never have to look for them again. Once your
cables are organized, they won't clutter your desk anymore, which will
match the elegance of MacBook Pro and Floater.
The gap
between the panels depends on the width of the central block. Floater's
side panels are as narrow as possible, to ensure perfect stability and
an easy fit. All the parts are made of machined aluminum. The weight
and strength of the metal lends the whole perfect stability. The
cooling effect is between 3 to 6 degree (CPU temperature), and the
cables tuck away into the base.
On its Floater, the computer seems to float in the air. It is not
simply carried or placed on a table. Floater has successfully recreated
the atmosphere of our dreams.
Floater is compatible to MacBook 13" , MacBook Pro 15", 17" and
PowerBook G4 17".
You can adjust thickness with the enclosed spacer in the
package.
