apple

A few days ago, I returned the Ipod touch that I had for exactly 11 days, coz Apple chose to charge me $20. Apart from me being a cheap bas***d, I had this queasy feeling in my gut, about apple products. I felt an unexplainable rage towards Apple, Jobs and the fanboys. I am usually a very moderate person, and it really surprised me that I could harbor such crazy extremism and frustration.

Since Apple’s is so bent upon disappointing their customers, by introducing paid firmware upgrades, I needed to ensure that I have the option to jail break, my new ipod touch (if need be). (update: the firmware upgrade itself is not paid. Only the newapps are paid). I am going to wait until they release their SDK in February before I jailbreak mine. I found a link to the 1.1.1 firmware (thanks to Rupert and who-ever posted this).

Have you heard about the latest ipod. http://www.bbspot.com/News/2005/01/new_ipod_implant.html http://news.com.com/5208-7354-0.html?forumID=1&threadID=4129&messageID=24004&start=-1 This is amazing.. Imagine being able to have a device implanted in your body, with which you cantrol with your thought, and which will use your brain as a hardrive, and use blood sugar as a battery cell. Eerie thought envelop me, when I think of what could be?!! Living the matrix ?!! It is not only the body heat that can be a source of energy (like in “The Matrix”), even human blood sugar can be harnesed!
