The Dream That Never Was

The Dream That Never Was

Most of us have been waiting patiently for Rogers to finally release their data rates for the iPhone 3G that is coming to Canada on July 11th. The good news is that the wait is finally over — Rogers just released full information about their plans.
Unfortunately, Rogers completely missed the boat on this one. [...]

Why The Silence, Rogers?

Why The Silence, Rogers?

Dave summed up the sentiment behind this post with one of his recent Flickr photos:

While most of Canada is ecstatic for the release of the iPhone in Canada, one company seems rather mute about the whole event. Ironically, that company is Rogers, the only company that has the technology to actually bring the iPhone [...]

Apple Finalizes 3G iPhone Release Date For Canada - July 11th

I stopped by the new Vancouver Apple store on my way to work to hang out with John Biehler and watch a bit of Steve Job’s keynote. Obviously the question on everyones’ mind basically revolved around the 3G iPhone that was rumoured to be announced.
The good news is that the release date for the [...]

Roger’s Wireless And The Canadian iPhone

Roger’s Wireless And The Canadian iPhone
Wednesday, June 4, 2008
/ Apple & All Things Mac, Technology

I missed the boat on the first round of Canadian iPhone action last year mainly because I was (quite stupidly) locked into a crazy Bell Mobility contract. The current consensus of the rumour mill is that Apple is gearing up to announce the 3G version of the iPhone on June 9th, which would [...]

Apple To Show 10.6 Next Week?

Apple To Show 10.6 Next Week?
Wednesday, June 4, 2008
/ Apple & All Things Mac

I’ve seen a few rumour sites suggest that Apple is preparing to seed developers with an early 10.6 release of their operating system. You can read about it here. If true, it sounds like it’s more of a maintenance/stability release, which makes me really wonder why they would name it a 10.6 instead [...]

WRT150N Wireless Router - FAIL

WRT150N Wireless Router - FAIL
Sunday, June 1, 2008
/ Apple & All Things Mac

About 9 months ago I picked up the WRT150N Linksys Wireless Router. I’ve used Linksys products before (mainly the WRT54G) and they always performed fairly well. I have, since upgrading to Macs, had nothing but problems with that router and my wireless network in general. And to be honest, that could [...]

/ Apple & All Things Mac

The other day John contacted me and told me about a new hack for the Apple TV. It’s basically an amalgamation of all the available hacks and updates for it, but it’s packaged in a nice, easy to use USB installer.
Before I get into my hacking attempt, I want to give a [...]

Apple Vancouver Store Opening On May 24

/ Apple & All Things Mac

Well, by now everyone and their dog has blogged this, but I’ll jump on the band wagon as well. Rebecca just pinged me on iChat and told me about the opening of the new Apple store this Saturday. To be honest, it comes as a fairly big surprise given the state they were [...]
