No iPhone Pre orders, Fanboy Riots to Ensue on Launch Day

According to this internal AT&T doc to sales reps, the iPhone will not be available for preorder. I predict lines of fanboys, much like at the PS3 launch day, with lots of crime and anarchy to go along with. Isn’t this one case where preorders make a lot of sense? Just set those up without…

Rumormania: Apple Putting 3G into MacBooks?

This rumor seems to come out of nowhere, but the combination of wishful thinking and high-end technology is what makes it so good.

Quick-Read Creative Zen Stone Review and Gallery (Verdict: Worth At Least Half a Shuffle)

When the $39.99 Zen Stone was first unearthed, there was some discussion as to whether it was larger or smaller than a $79 iPod shuffle.
