Apple Cinema Display Rumors: Loaded with HDCP-safe HDMI, Bigger LCDs, and iSight

Deep inhale. The Apple Keynote is 2 weeks away. And that means the Mac rumors are spinning up like a carnival vomitron reaching its apex. Here’s a roundup of the super imaginary monitor the rumor sites have dreamt up, sparked up by the expectation of the iTV set top box. Without further ado, or proof,…

Apple Cellphone Thingy Update: It’s “iMobile”…Nyaaat

If you’re not reading this on Gizmodo, you’re on a splog. Late Saturday, iPhone Insider made a bold proclamation: “Apple has acquired the name “iMobile” for its upcoming cellphone.” It quickly rose to Digg’s homepage. Seems like straightforward times in rumorville. Except the original iPhone Insider blog is fake. All posts, save that last rumor…

Did Microsoft rip off Apple’s Mac OS X when making Vista? New York Times tech superstar David Pogue takes it upon himself to highlight the “coincidences” between both operating systems and show us why they’re different. Nothing like a little tech sarcasm for the holidays. Long live Mac OS X. Er, I mean Vista. Vista…

The iPad

Not much in terms of details here, but we hear Dubai-based real estate developer Omniyat Properties is going to build a $800 million building that’s “inspired” by the iPod. The structure—which will definitely have iPod docks in all the toilets—will be started in 2007 and completed in 2009. https://gizmodo.com/exclusive-gizmodo-review-of-the-icarta-ipod-dock-toilet-199162 Twenty-three stories of iPod goodness.

Another Apple Phone Rumor: Now Slightly More Plausible, But Not Really

Although this supposed Apple Phone leak still calls the phone the “iPhone”, the rest of the details seem to be a bit more valid compared to all the fakes people try to pass off these days. First, there’s the dual-screen touch-screen system reminiscent of the Apple Patents describing a dual-screen device. https://gizmodo.com/apple-iphone-patent-granted-218300 There’s a touch-sensitive…

MyVu iPod Video Glasses Review (Verdict: Look Like Geordi From Star Trek)

So I’m going to start off by telling you what the MyVu is not. It is not a television replacement, hell it’s not even a laptop replacement for watching videos. But beyond that the MyVu does have some great niche uses, if you’re comfortable with wearing a pair of goggles that beam images directly into…

Sizemodo: The Mythical Ultraportable MacBook Pro

If the Ultraportable MacBook Pro does exist—despite the specs that were “leaked” being too ridiculous to actually be true—how big would it be? Well, judging from both the 1280×800 resolution in both the MacBook and the UP MacBook, the screen ratios should be pretty similar. https://gizmodo.com/ultraportable-macbook-specs-leaked-223312 Add in the “less than 1-inch thick” spec, and…

Ultraportable MacBook Specs Leaked?

Looks like the rumors surrounding that 12-inch MacBook Pro we spoke of earlier are starting to beef up. The gang at Mac OS Rumors is convinced Apple is working on a MacBook “Thin” and have listed all the specs they got from their “trusted sources in Cupertino and Southeast Asia.” Apple may be working on…

Frankenfight: Apple “iPhone” Vs. Greek Gods

The iPhone monicker has been burned deep into the hearts and minds of both man and journalist alike. Its mythology has transcended that of even the elusive touch-screen iPod or Apple tablet, bordering on archetype. https://gizmodo.com/the-iphone-is-dead-long-live-the-apple-cellphone-thing-222393 But exactly how strong is this mythology? Can the iPhone’s legend stand up to the greatest myths of the…

Why, oh why can’t there be Mac clones again? The quality of Mac hardware has been steadily declining, and if a user is devoted to OS X and no other, there’s no choice for hardware but Apple. The first official clone experiment in 1995-97 was going so well, and then Steve Jobs swooped in and…

Apple doesn’t own the iPhone trademark. What does that mean? This isn’t a simple case of cybersquatting, as with the hijacked sex.com. Nor is it an academic exercise, like when Josh Quittner bought McDonalds.com for a Wired story. Cisco rightfully owns the trademark for iPhone. And Apple can’t sue them or bully them into giving…
