Just before we get into this weeks show I want to apologise for the poor sound quality on last weeks podcast. We are trying to trace the roots of it and deliver the best quality we can. Over the past two weeks there has been a buzzing that has crept into the podcast and lasted for approximately 30 seconds. I’m not sure what is causing it but every effort is being made to address this. Now on with the show.

TUAW article is reporting that Apple have told Macworld Magazine that there will be no further product introductions for 2008 (link).
Wow, I’m really bummed over this as I expected a speed bump for the iMacs to bring them up to par with the new Macbook & Macbook Pros feature set. The iMacs usually share their innards (chipsets, CPU, GPU etc.) with the Macbook Pros so I am surprised by this announcement, but not so much so with the Mac Mini which will get some form of refresh I believe at Macworld in Jan ‘09.
I’m hoping that they’ll maybe fuse Mac Mini with Apple TV to create a high-end Apple TV and offer an answer to MS Media Server.

Jason Snell of Macworld has posted his first impressions of the newly redesigned Macbook & Macbook Pro which are quite comprehensive for impressions (link) .
Very cool that you can use iPhone headset with the notebook but am slightly annoyed that switch between using graphics cards in Pro model is not handled automatically when attached or not attached to the power adapter. You have to logout for the switch to take effect ( a little annoying Apple ) so hopefully some type of fix can be implemented by Cupertino in a future software/firmware update.
Still, won’t stop me from purchasing one in next 3 weeks.
