WWDC Coverage

I will be attended Apple's WWDC this year. I will provide coverage of the Keynote on June 9th and continuing coverage the rest of the week. San Francisco here I come!

Zune Price Drop to $199

As of tomorrow you will be able to get a shiny brand new Zune for only $199. Microsoft swears it has nothing to do with that "other" mp3 player and all the news it is generating (here, here, here, or here). Either way if the Zune is your thing, then tomorrow is your day. (but if Apple is your thing then tomorrow is probably you day too)

Voice Recognition on iPhone

I promise this won't become a iPhone only blog, but recently there has been a lot of iPhone news. Yesterday VoiceSignal ported their voice recognition system in the form of an application to control music playback. Simply launch the app and say the name of the song or artist. Check out the video below.

While nVidia and ATI are well known for their gaming performance, Intel is making strides to revamp their integrated graphics chip. Part of the new Santa Rosa chipset is the GM 3001 integrated graphics. This replaces their previous generation, the GMA950 (currently found in Apple's MacBook and MacMini). The GM 3001 is the first integrated graphics to be able to handle some of today's games. It has been demonstrated that Call of Duty 2, Far Cry and Battlefield 2 are playable, which is unheard of when talking about integrated graphics.

iPhones: $100 off @ Apple Store Online

The apple store has a little treasure trove called the Refurb Store. Apple has started selling refurbished iPhones for $100 off their retail price. So you can get a 4gb iPhone for 399 and 8gb for $499 (2 year contract still required). These products come with the same warranty as new products and in all the times I have ordered from Refurb they all looked brand new. So save some cash.
