The iPhone sucks in the US. First, however, let me preface this by saying the problem isn’t with the iPhone or Apple – it’s with AT&T (and Verizon, T-Mobile, & the FCC – read on for more). In fact, I believe the iPhone is currently the best mobile device in the world. The opposite could [...]

The New MacBook Pro 13″ vs Previous MacBook

About a month ago, I recieved a brand new MacBook aluminum unibody, maxed out with a 2.4ghz CPU, 320GB harddrive, and 4GB of memory.
