After cutting down the voice chat feature in PlayStation Home, Sony PlayStation Network's Abigail Murphy says that their new 1.05 update brings the feature back but limiting it to users' personal spaces and clubhouses:
Lately I've been getting really annoyed at Time Machine.

Apple's just posted an OS X Leopard walk-through video that's in the same vein as those iPhone and iPod Touch walk-through videos you've seen before. A guy narrates and describes new features while he shows them to you on the monitor—except in this case, he's less robotic (iPhone guy) or goofy (iPod touch guy). In…
Excited about all the new features in Leopard? Buy your copy from Amazon and you can get $20 off the single-user edition and $10 off the family edition.

It will be available in 10 days, on Friday, October 26th, at 6pm in Apple Stores and at authorized resellers. Leopard may be the most ambitious MacOS update since the switch to OS X, with new…
Earlier today the online Apple store had listed a ship date for Mac OS 10.4 Tiger as October 26th, which coincidentally is the rumored release date for 10.5 Leopard. Could this be more evidence for Leopard's release date or simply a mistake on Apple's part...
Rumor has it that Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard is going to be shipping in just a few weeks on Friday, October 26th. Although it's not very surprising, given that Apple usually releases new OSX versions on the last friday of the release month. If we were betting people, our money would be on the 26th. [AppleInsder]
Don't forget that Apple's Boot Camp beta, the software that lets you install Windows on a Mac, will expire this month upon OS X 10.5's release. No worries though, all you have to do is upgrade to 10.5 and you'll be safe.[Apple]
Time to put the old girl out to pasture. Though it's not from the Mouth of Steve, rumors are confirmed that Leopard won't support the following 800 MHz G4 systems: PowerBook G4 Titanium, PowerMac G4 Quicksilver, iMac G4, iBook G4 and eMac. If you were lucky enough to hold out for the 867MHz G4, you can run Leopard,…
Very unconfirmed now, but Archos Lounge is saying the Archos 105 will be coming in September for a tiny $90 each. The 105 will be a small iPod-sized player (unlike the back-breaking Archos units we're used to) and will have 2GB of memory, a 1.8-inch OLD screen, WMV/MP3 playback and measure 3.3x1.8x0.3 inches. No…
