This week Justin “The Head Craicer” Byrne takes exception to Andy Ihnatko’s Jersey Shore/Apple remark as the main Cupertino crew seem share some common traits (though I don’t believe that they are sleeping with one another (Dave “Snookie” Shortle) :-) ).

iPod Touch, iOS4 & the magical disappearing battery life – The boys discuss the curious case of the magical disappearing battery life on Justin’s 3G iPod Touch which we could summarise as blame fast app switching or the Mail.app

Apple TV becoming iTV, getting application support, yet losing full HD? I give my thoughts on whether this “iTV” can handle 1080P, but with an A4 chip

it should be more than capable just like this.

Tag- Click away, be safe, have fun oops that’s not it.

That’s all the Craic from this week’s Mac !

Justin’s Note:   One of the things we did not mention was Apple Care.   Don’t buy it from Apple when they try to sell it to you.   You’ll get it cheaper if you shop around.   You have one year to purchase and activate it to get the extended warranty and believe me it is worth it.
