iPod Touch

Monday, September 24th, 2007

iPod TouchI went to the Bentall Centre Apple Store in Kingston today to have a quick play with the new iPod Touch. The interface looks great, is very easy to use, and as with all Apple products, “it just works” :D

I was hoping to get one before I start back at Uni tomorrow, but they’re not out until the weekend. I definitely plan to get one when they’re released though. Hopefully that will be enough time for my InvisbleShield to arrive :D

New Apple Keyboard

Saturday, September 8th, 2007

New Apple KeyboardI finally bought myself the new Apple Keyboard on Tuesday! I would’ve bought one when I got my new Mac Mini, but Micro Anvika didn’t have any of the new ones in stock at that time.

So far the keyboard has been great - as with all other Apple products, it “just worked”, even in Windows! It’s much lower on the desk than any other keyboard I’ve used, and seems to be smaller without actually looking smaller, which will let me push it further out of the way when I need to use my laptop on my desk.

I haven’t yet tried it in any games or doing any serious coding, but from my experience chatting with it, writing comments on blogs, and just “using” it, I would say it’s probably the best keyboard I’ve used to date - I highly recommend buying one if you need a new keyboard :D
