I finally bought a AirPort Extreme Base Station and I have to say this was a great purchase.  I have to say this is one of the best routers I have purchased, yes, the price is a little steep but it is worth it.  One great feature of it is WDS (wireless distribution system), what this means is I hace two AirPort Expresses hooked up in my house to boost the signal and gives me the option to share the network connection via ethernet.

If you’re in the market for a new router, GET THIS!!!

8 Things That Suck About The Apple iPad

Earlier the iPad was announced and I posted a pic of it, now all the reviews are coming out.  This is one of the best ones I have found, it is 8 Things That Suck About The Apple iPad by Gizmodo, check it out:

A lot of people at Gizmodo are psyched about the iPad. Not me! My god, am I underwhelmed by it. It has some absolutely backbreaking failures that will make buying one the last thing I would want to do. Updated

Big, Ugly Bezel
Have you seen the bezel on this thing?! It’s huge! I know you don’t want to accidentally input a command when your thumb is holding it, but come on.

No Multitasking
This is a backbreaker. If this is supposed to be a replacement for netbooks, how can it possibly not have multitasking? Are you saying I can’t listen to Pandora while writing a document? I can’t have my Twitter app open at the same time as my browser? I can’t have AIM open at the same time as my email? Are you kidding me? This alone guarantees that I will not buy this product.

No Cameras
No front facing camera is one thing. But no back facing camera either? Why the hell not? I can’t imagine what the downside was for including at least one camera. Could this thing not handle video iChat?

Touch Keyboard
So much for Apple revolutionizing tablet inputs; this is the same big, ugly touchscreen keyboard we’ve seen on other tablets, and unless you’re lying on the couch with your knees propping it up, it’ll be awkward to use.

No HDMI Out
Want to watch those nice HD videos you downloaded from iTunes on your TV? Too damned bad! If you were truly loyal, you’d just buy an AppleTV already.

The Name iPad
Get ready for Maxi pad jokes, and lots of ‘em!

No Flash
No Flash is annoying but not a dealbreaker on the iPhone and iPod Touch. On something that’s supposed to be closer to a netbook or laptop? It will leave huge, gaping holes in websites. I hope you don’t care about streaming video! God knows not many casual internet users do. Oh wait, nevermind, they all do.

Adapters, Adapters, Adapters
So much for those smooth lines. If you want to plug anything into this, such as a digital camera, you need all sorts of ugly adapters. You need an adapter for USB for god’s sake.

Update: Why stop at 8? Here are more things we are discovering that suck about the iPad.

It’s Not Widescreen
Widescreen movies look lousy on this thing thanks to its 4:3 screen, according to Blam, who checked out some of Star Trek on one. It’s like owning a 4:3 TV all over again!

Doesn’t Support T-Mobile 3G
Sure, it’s “unlocked.” But it won’t work on T-Mobile, and it uses microSIMs that literally no one else uses.

A Closed App Ecosystem
The iPad only runs apps from the App Store. The same App Store that is notorious for banning apps for no real reason, such as Google Voice. Sure, netbooks might not have touchscreens, but you can install whatever software you’d like on them. Want to run a different browser on your iPad? Too bad!

We’re not sure how long these files will stay online so if you’re looking for a leaked copy of BlackBerry Desktop Manager for Mac, you should get it asap.

Keep in mind that this is leaked software, and should only be downloaded for those looking for a sneak peak. In the end, it’s always best to wait for the full release, when all the bugs have been worked out.

Apple touch screen netbook (rumors).

cnet:

(This story was originally posted at 9:44 a.m. PDT March 9.)

Citing an article by the Chinese-language Commercial Times, DigiTimes reported Monday that “Taiwan-based Wintek will supply touch panels for Apple’s new Netbook, and shipments will start in the third quarter this year.” DigiTimes also claimed that Quanta Computer will manufacture the new device. Now Dow Jones Newswire has posted an updated story that expands on the DigiTimes report. “The mini laptop computers will likely have monitor screens that are between 9.7-inches and 10-inches,” an unnamed source told Dow Jones. Another person added, “Other specifications and functions are still under evaluation.” The report also claimed Wintek would make the touch-screen displays and Quanta would assemble the new computers.Chiming in on the rumor, Engadget posted a mock-up of an Apple Netbook that has a keyboard. Meanwhile, Silicon Alley Reporter stuck with its earlier speculation that Apple will simply do a larger version of the iPod Touch (it’s calling the device the iPod Touch HD). Personally, I’d rather see Apple go with a more straightforward Netbook approach that simply adds some Apple design flair to 10-inch Netbooks already on the market, with three models ranging in price from $599-$799.
