MacBook Air Project
This is a pretty cool project built using a ‘broken’ MacBook Air, the new Magic Trackpad and a keyboard. It’s basically a computer inside the keyboad, just like the old C64, Spectrum or Amiga. Neat project!

iPhone 2G/3G/3GS/4 Speed Comparison
Here’s an interesting video featuring the four latest iPhone models (2G/3G/3GS/4) running a few different apps and tasks. The iPhone 4 is of course the fastest model and the difference in some of the tests compared to the iPhone 3G/2G is very big! (8.5 vs 25.7 seconds to load the Plants vs Zombies game).

Jays a-Jays Three unboxing
I decided to get a new pair of headphones for my new iPhone and went for Jays new a-Jays. They come in three different versions and I went for the ‘Three’ package to get the travel case, stereo splitter and the airline adapter. A review will come in the next few days but since the packaging is quite cool I’ll share a few unboxing shots.
The Magic Trackpad
Yes, this is a week old, but since I’ve been on vacation I’m just catching up a bit on the news. One of the coolest things that has been launched during the week got to be the the magic trackpad. It’s a small device that is placed next to your keyboard and will let you use multi-touch gestures on your desktop as well. It’s only $69 and you can buy one in your local Apple store or online.

iOS in BMW
BMW is taking the iPod integration to the next level by integrating the new ‘iPod out’ in upcoming BMW models. As you can see in the video it’s a quite nice integration!
Wrench UBS drive
For $20 you can get this nice little wrench shaped USB drive. It measures 86 x 26 x 7mm and weighs 45grams. One more photo inside.
Micro Sim Cutter for iPhone 4 / iPad
As you know the iPhone 4 is using the smaller ‘micro sim’ card and at least in Sweden it’s currently hard to get hold of these as iPhone (and iPad) are some of the first units that only can be used with the micro sim. But there’s a solution to that. By using a micro sim cutter you can convert your sim to a micro sim in just a few seconds. You can get the micro sim cutter for $25.

30 years of Apple computers in 2 minutes
This guy has made a short movie featuring all of his Apple computers – lots of them! It’s quite interesting to see how ugly they were at some point, especially the big, bulky beige ones.

Pivot Power, Adjustable Power Strip
Pivot Power is one of the nicest power strips I have seen so far. It’s clever design makes it possible to adjust the form and bend it into circular, semi-circular, and zig zag shapes. The Strip was designed by Quirky’s community members in just one week! More information and images inside.
iLounges iPhone 4 review
Yeah, I know, lots of iPhone 4 postings the last few days – but it’s the most interesting gadget released on the market for quite some time. Here’s a nice 10 page review from iLounge and it’s a nice run-through of all the bells and whistles. It ain’t all good though since they gathered quite a big ‘cons’ list:
Cons: Smudge, scratch, and shatter issues await users who avoid cases. Antenna reception is more noticeably reduced under some conditions than on prior iPhones, particularly impeding cellular performance in certain indoor environments. Despite improved screen, user interface is only modestly improved from iPhone 3GS. Lowest capacity version feels cramped given video recording capabilities and release of high-resolution apps. High-resolution video output to monitors is confusingly limited; video calling is presently incompatible with even Apple’s own iChat application. Data consumption due to higher-resolution screen is ill-suited to lowest-end limited data service plans. Sole U.S. cellular data provider AT&T continues to provide inconsistent and sometimes poor service.
