E.T.’s choice


All nerds know that there have been rumours about this, but now it’s true. This is the thing that E.T. or Alf would grab, if they needed to dial 555-outer space and listen to Bowie's Starman while doing it. The new Apple iPhone seems to be the gadget of all gadgets. Check here how Stevie praises the thingy
I won’t get into too much detail (yuh know, phone+ipod+netbrowser), but the touchscreen seems to be the clue, a true knockout IMO: the phone has only one real button. iPhone ain't ready for 3G yet, but we are waiting.

And to top this all, Job's entourage released Apple TV earlier this week.It is a set top box that connects your home computers to your TV wirelessly via Wlan. Downside for this gadget is its pretty steep price

What gets me excited about this company is both their interest in state of the art design combined with good usability and their ability to deliver the goods – not many disappointments here. Ok, I kinda hate iTunes and the monopoly they have created around it, but that’s another story.

But I will get that TV-box thingy to watch all those illegally downloaded movies straight from my TV.

Yeah, I know, I am too lazy to score a simple and MUCH cheaper video-s converter cable...
