Take a look at what could be the new MacBook

Engadget has posted pictures of what could be the new MacBook. It came from a Taiwanese site and shows two aluminum shells.

If this is true, then this will really shut the doors on my hope of ever seeing a 12″ MacBook Pro.

(But then, I should say that I’m not comfortable seeing that “MacBook” text a bit off centered.)

Check MobileMe Status

Apple - MobileMe - Status was created because

Steve Jobs has asked me to write a posting every other day or so to let everyone know what’s happening with MobileMe, and I’m working directly with the MobileMe group to ensure that we keep you really up to date. via Daring Fireball

I am with MobileMe now and it’s great to have a jsuplido (a) me.com address. The only gripe I have is that MobileMe does not sync with Google Contacts that well… and that it cannot be accessed through Firefox 3 in Ubuntu. I know I can play around with browser id and Wine but I don’t want to get into that sequence of workarounds “just” for MobileMe.

Read ebooks

I’m in ebook heaven once again because I can access my accounts at ereader.com and fictionwise.com thanks to this freeware app for the iPhone!

I’ve always loved how the iPhone renders text but couldn’t find a suitable ebook reader for it until now. It takes a while to get used to “flicking” pages … and my fingers kept on subconsciously looking for a scrollwheel (I didn’t realize the Clie had such a lasting impression).

Incidentally, there are a lot of free classics at both sites… which I all grabbed for later reading. (The app comes with Tarzan of the Apes and The Last of the Mohicans.)

Watch The X-Files. Again.

Season 1 of The X-Files is now available at the iTunes Store… which is great timing for the upcoming X-Files 2 movie!
