Bloomberg, a financial news service, briefly freaked out Apple stockholders today by prematurely releasing its obituary of Apple CEO Steve Jobs. Only problem is, Jobs didn't die. (He's fine! Jon saw him in Cupertino just a little bit ago.)

Decisions, Decisions - Do You Really Need an iPhone 3G?

Posted 08/25/2008 at 5:08am | by cyoung

Comments

Do you really need an iPhone 3G? We give you 5 reasons it’s the world’s best cell phone—and 5 reasons to wait to buy one or just keep rocking your 2G iPhone.

We admit it—after hearing Steve Jobs’s keynote at the Worldwide Developers Conference on June 9, we all wanted an iPhone 3G. Badly. There’s plenty to like about the iPhone’s second coming, but we wouldn’t be doing our jobs if we didn’t show you both sides of Apple’s newest smartphone, the good and the bad. In fact, the original working title of this article was “10 Reasons You Need an iPhone Now,” but in researching the story, we couldn’t look past the device’s clear downsides.

So in the spirit of the proverbial angel and devil that sit on either shoulder when you’re weighing a decision, we present both the good and the bad news about the iPhone 3G, so you can you make the most informed choice possible.

Meet the Apple Executive Olympic Team!

Posted 08/22/2008 at 1:03pm | by Michael Simon

They weren’t on a mission of redemption like the USA Basketball team. They don’t have eight gold medals like Michael Phelps. They didn’t break any world records. And they won’t be getting a Speedo endorsement any time soon.

But Apple’s Executive Board members had plenty of reasons to high-five during the Games of XXIX Olympiad: Like each time Microsoft spokesman Lebron James, or Yao Ming, or any of the 11,000 other athletes from around the world was shown listening to an iPod before an event. Or whenever a broadcaster waxed intellectual about Phelps’ pre-swim playlist. Or when Dwight Howard was photographed downloading an app onto his iPhone. (Not so much when a duct-taped MacBook Pro made an appearance, but you can’t win 'em all.)

So we started thinking: What if Apple’s Executive Board, rather than its products, were the stars of the Beijing Olympic Games? What events would they participate in? Who would win gold?

Find out after the jump.

Apple's Mystery Transition: Change We Can Believe In

Posted 08/06/2008 at 2:57am | by Michael Simon

Comments

With Apple, we never know more than we have to, and its upcoming "product transition" is no exception. We know it's coming before Sept. 30, and we know it'll put a strain on the company's gross margins. But if Apple's track record for such announcements is any indictor, we should be ready for something big.

The Mac|Life Staff Considers the Upcoming Mystery Product

Posted 07/22/2008 at 12:28pm | by Roberto Baldwin

Steve and Peter mentioned a mystery product/transition during yesterdays quarterly results conference call. The product is supposed to be soooo cool, that Apple will actually make less money to bringing it to the market.

Since Apple is all hush hush on the matter, we decided to let the wild speculating commence.

Check out our predictions after the jump.

Batman vs. Steve Jobs

On July 11, the new iPhone was released… one week later, Batman: The Dark Knight hits the theaters. Coincidence? Perhaps. But get this, if Bruce Wayne made a portable computer, wouldn’t it be called a BatBook? And if Apple built a car chances are it would be marketed as a MacMobile, right? Batbook/MacBook… MacMobile/Batmobile. Spooky.

Similarities aside, the time has never been more right to answer that eternal question: Quien es mas macho? It’s Batman vs. Steve Jobs!

iPhones For EVERYONE!

While I was combing over every bit of rumor and speculation that has seeped from the slimy underbelly of the internet over the past few weeks, I had a revelation. Maybe it's iPhone fatigue, maybe it's the four Red Bulls I had before breakfast. Whatever it is, I'm sure it'll be a winner.
