Airbag Smashes MacBook Into Man’s Chest, Leaves MacBook-Shaped Bruise | Cult of Mac: Note to self: don't use MacBook Air in the car (certain edges really are that sharp).
International iPhone users: bringing your iPhone to the States? Your options are limited.: Pretty amazing -- AT&T is also screwing with iPhone owners who didn't acquire their phone through AT&T. There must be something really screwy in the contract between AT&T and Apple which is producing this sort of behavior.
AppleInsider | Apple may extend antiglare display option to more Macs: I really hope that this rumor pans out, especially on Apple's desktop monitors (iMac, 24" LED Cinema Display).
AnandTech: Upgrading and Analyzing Apple's Nehalem Mac Pro: Fantastic deep-dive into the Nehalem Mac Pro from AnandTech. The best parts are the deep dive into the heatsinks on the dual-CPU model (fun fact: it uses custom packaging on the CPUs!) and a look into the potential performance boost that can be gained by switching to SSD. I haven't worked myself up to paying the price for one of these yet, but the want is certainly there, and reviews like this are certainly a huge help to my purchasing process. (via chris)
