Hot News: Apple to introduce a new, different type of Mac

I have heard rumblings that the MacBook Air is where Apple is taking its lineup of Macs. Today’s rumor seems to verify this. Macatakara.jp claims that Apple is preparing to unveil a new line of MacBooks that are different from anything currently on the market. They are so different that they may get a new name or brand identity all together. Unfortunately, the rumor is extremely vague on details, but does note that the new Macs may debut before the “end of this year.”

AppleInsider claims that Macatakara.jp is somewhat hit or miss with rumors. The brief and vague nature of the report also lends itself to a lot of criticism. The new product, if there is one, could be a line of MacBook Pros that are taking on a MacBook Air design philosophy, meaning they’re much thinner, have no disc drives, and have a solid state drive instead of a moving hard drive. This makes sense, as laptop PCs seem to be moving in the direction of solid state drives. 

If this is the case, however, it seems likely that the source would have mentioned the MacBook Air as these would essentially look a lot like it, just bigger. We’ll keep you posted, but until we hear more, take this rumor lightly.

Griffin Launched Beacon Universal Remote System

The Beacon universal remote control system from Griffin Technology bridges the gap between your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad and your home theater equipment. You’ll install the Dijit remote control app from the iTune’s app store and use Bluetooth to pair your iOS device to Beacon – no more tiny IR transmitters to plug into your iPhone. Then the Beacon will translate the Bluetooth signals into IR commands for your A/V equipment. The Dijit app has a large library of device codes already available to make setting up your remote easy, and there is a learn mode if you own a piece of equipment not in the database. You’ll be able to control individual devices or define activities that will do everything needed to watch a movie, for example. The Beacon is $79.99 from Griffin, and the Dijit app is free.

Logitechs New Tablet Speakers

Using a rubberised clip the speakers attach to your tablet and connect via your headphone jack. The speakers charge via USB giving you up to eight hours of sound.

Your tablet doesn’t quite pump out enough sound for that rave party ? Those explosions not “big” enough while watching the latest block buster ? Logitech has just announced the Tablet Speaker to help you pump up the volume.

The speakers even work as a low stand, so tunes while you type and they come with their own carry case.

Logitech has named these Tablet Speaker for Ipad but I can’t see any reason why it shouldn’t work with any tablet with a 3.5mm audio out jack.

Slated for release in September and available for preorder from Logitechthey’ll set you back $50.

Unboxing & Hands On Verizon Blackberry Bold 9930

Matthew unboxes the Blackberry Bold 9930 on Verizon. We first saw RIMs new lineup of Blackberrys at BlackBerry World earlier in the year. The 9930 (CDMA version of 9900) is the newest member of the BlackBerry lineup and s has a blazing fast 1.2 GHz Snapdragon processor. Twice as fast as any other blackberry. The 2.8-inch TFT capacitive touchscreen has a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels. The camera on the back is 5-megapixel with 720p HD video recording capabilities. It is also one of the first Blackberries to launch with BlackBerry 7. Right away I noticed that the new keyboard is more spacious. 6% bigger to be exact. You can pick up the Blackberry Bold 9930 at Verizon for $249. The question is, Do Blackberries still have their appeal? Can it compete with the other fruit phone out there?

Google+ has now Identity-verification Badges

Google is adding badges that certify the identity of users of its Google+ social networking site, starting with public figures and with people who have been added by many as contacts.Later on, the verification badges will be available to a bigger scope of users who aren't famous or broadly popular on the site, Google official Wen-Ai Yu [cq] said in a Google+ post.

For now the main goal is to inform users which is the official profile of a singer, actor, politician, public figure or popular Google+ account holder they may want to add to their Google+ Circles to follow their public posts."When you visit the profile of a celebrity or public figure, you'll see a verification badge next to their profile name. This will help you easily determine which profiles are owned by real, verified people," she wrote.

Verified Google+ accounts will feature a gray checkmark inside a lighter-gray circle next to the person's profile name. It's not clear from Yu's post how many "followers" a Google+ user needs to have to qualify as someone whose account merits having a verification badge.Other social media sites feature verified accounts, including Twitter, which is used by many public figures to communicate with their fans.Google is pushing a policy for its users to identify themselves with their real names on Google+, a principle that has worked well for Facebook, helping it create and foster a more trustworthy environment than exists on other social sites where people use pseudonyms.

Facebook's real-name environment is credited as one of the main reasons why it dethroned MySpace as the world's most popular social networking site.However, Google faced criticism a few weeks ago when it started aggressively enforcing the real-names policy by deleting many accounts it determined to be in non-compliance.In response to the complaints, Google said it would modify its notification process to potentially non-compliant users by giving them a chance to fix the violations and appeal instead of deleting their profiles first.

Still, some people argue that Google should reconsider the real-names policy, saying that in some cases it's justified for people to use pseudonyms to protect their privacy and security, as in the case of political dissidents and victims of spousal abuse.
Google+, launched in late June, has an estimated 25 million [m] account holders, but it is still in limited beta. To join Google+, people have to receive an invitation from Google or from an existing member.
