Time Magazine: Apple's New Calling: the iPhone

Apple's New Calling: The iPhone -- Printout -- TIME by Lev Grossman

Apple's new iPhone could do to the cell phone market what the iPod did to the portable music player market: crush it pitilessly beneath the weight of its own superiority. This is unfortunate for anybody else who makes cell phones, but it's good news for those of us who use them.

I saw the streamed the presentation from Apple's web site and finally someone make a cell phone I truly want. Goodbye Verizon Wireless!!!

Mac mini

I bought a Mac mini. I like it a lot. I think Apple has a beautiful little machine. I love the sleek white lines.

So what are the specs?

  • 1.42GHz PowerPC G4
  • 512MB DDR333 SDRAM
  • ATI Radeon 9200
  • 32MB DDR video memory
  • 80GB Ultra ATA hard drive
  • SuperDrive (DVD±RW/CD-RW)
  • DVI or VGA video output
  • Built-in AirPort Extreme and Bluetooth
  • Optional 56k Internal Modem
  • one FireWire 400 port
  • two USB 2.0 ports
  • 10⁄100 Ethernet

Since it came without a keyboard or mouse, I bought an Apple USB keyboard. I read a review of the wireless keyboard that was less than glowing. I might buy the wireless Super Mouse in a few months.
