Exceptional beaty! Refreshed laptops with LED display, Multi Touch glass trackpad, NVIDIA graphic display, aluminum unibody enclosure

See it to choose your own fit MacBook? Obvioulsy Apple did a major step to bridge the gap between MacBook and MacBook Pro

Stunning glossy LED-backlit widescreen now comes standard in all MacBook and MacBook Pro:

No more button, the new Multi-Touch trackpad now has 4 fingers gestures:

Redesigned unibody — a seamless enclosure carved from a single piece of aluminium:

The new NVIDIA GeForce processor will deliver the power you need to design, illustrate, and animate — wherever and whenever inspiration strikes:

The new MPB has 2 GPU (NVIDIA GeForce 9400 + GeForce 9600M GT) which is equivalent to a turbocharged performance for the most graphically intensive tasks. This is call Hybrid SLI – the technology that NVIDIA had planned to announce on October 15, and Apple was a day early

FYI, Hybrid SLI means that the on-board graphics power is sufficient to handle high-definition video. And when you want to run a more graphics-intensive app, such as DirectX 10 games, the technology flips the switch into a turbo mode where the two GPUs piggyback – conceivably boosting performance by 80 percent, according to nVidia spokespeople (PCWorld) – Well, things do get better

… And there’s One More Thing (after the break) …

Part of 6,707,035,007 people [Earth population till July 1st, 2008] and 85,262,356 [Vietnam population till July 2007]; I’m now part of 8,002,530 people who downloaded FireFox 3 Thanks to the support of the always amazing Mozilla community, we now hold a Guinness World Record on June 17, 2008 for the most software downloaded in 24 hours.

… So together we did it surprisingly outnumbered the expected 5,000,000 count!

Safari, Firefox 3, Opera 9 and we fly

If you want to be cool, be Apple. But to be bold, BlackBerry must be the choice I’ve been enjoying every moment with my AT&T BlackBerry 8820 for months. Powerful, Versatile, Stylish, Smart, that’s BlackBerry; and the feeling is just so amazing

Yesterday, Research In Motion (RIM) dropped their new bombshell: BlackBerry 9000, codename ‘Bold‘, that to better the best Smartphone on Earth.

BlackBerry Bold features:

• Memory: 1GB on-board (storage) and 128 MB Flash (applications)
• Battery: 1500mAhr lithium cell; that allows to Standby: 13 days, Talk Time: 5 hours
• Network Support: UMTS: 2100/1900/850MHz, GSM: 1900/1800/900/850 MHz, GPRS, EDGE and HDSPA networks
• Wi-Fi: 803.11a/b/g enabled
• Gorgeous display: HVGA, 480 x 320 pixels, Transmissive TFT LCD, supports over 65k colors
• Media support: DivX 4, Div X 5 & 6, XviD, H.263, H.264, WMV3, 3gp, MP3, WMA9 (.wma/.asf), WMA9 Pro/WMA 10, MIDI, AMR-NB, Professional AAC/AAC+/eAAC+, iTunes Sync
• Camera: 2.0MP, 5x digital zoom with flash
• GPS
• Bluetooth 2.0, USB Port
• Last but not least, new RIM OS 4.6

RIM has Bold on the website, but no launch date specified yet. It seems like AT&T will be first to carry this Bold

So BlackBerry full QWERTY keyboard family now has one more lovely sibling: from left to right – Curve 8320, Bold 9000, and 8820 (photo courtesy of CrackBerry)

Nothing much to say since Bold is not officially sold yet. From the look, all I can say is the display is much bright and crisp, the keyboard looks cooler with little space between keys (neither ’0′ space like 8820 nor generous-redundant space like 8320) – one slight change that surely make a huge impact! More reviews can be found here.

P.S: almost at the same time, Apple shows that they are having no interest to continue selling iPhone 2.5G. All 8Gb and 16Gb models are showing ‘Unavailable’ status under Apple US & UK Online Store WWDC is coming next month, and rumors says (confirms) that iPhone 3G is around the corner, iPhone Black edition as well (^o^)

Sweet isn’t it time to torn apart … iPhone 3G or BlackBerry Bold, Be Cool or Be Bold with modern technology, you just cannot get enough!

I’m back from Singapore IT Show 2008 with my new shinny MacBook Pro

Left hand side is my 2 years old MacBook Pro, and the right hand one is the latest revision featuring 45nm Intel Core 2 Duo ‘Penryn’, 15.4 inches widescreen LED, 2GB memory, 200GB SATA hard drive, 8x Double-layer SuperDrive, NVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT with 256MB of GDDR3 SDRAM, 802.11n Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR.

Two months has passed and Apple has been aggressively showing their ambitions for 2008. With each and every super Tuesday, Apple introduced new things

• January 08: new Mac Pros and Xserve
• January 15: Macworld Expo: MacBook Air, Apple TV 2
• January 22: Pink nanos

• February 05: Double storage for iPhone and touch

Terrific, isn’t it “and we have 52 weeks to go” (Steve Jobs), so what will be next? MacBook and MacBook Pro already got a bump. Now it’s time for iMac, iPhone SDK, and 3G iPhone

Today, Fortune listed Apple as the No.1 of American’s Most Admired Company for innovation, also ranked Steve Jobs (Chairman and CEO, Apple) as the most powerful people in business Congrats!

The article pointed out what makes Apple golden:

Apple’s philosophy goes like this: Too many companies spread themselves thin, making a profusion of products to defuse risk, so they get mired in the mediocre. Apple’s approach is to put every resource it has behind just a few products and make them exceedingly well.

Apple’s headquarter in Cupertino, Cali is loaded with engineers, but it’s not just the skills that are important, it’s the ability to emote. (“Emotive” is a big word here.) . It also set the gold standard for corporate America with an entirely new business model: creating a brand, morphing it, and reincarnating it to thrive in a disruptive age.

Excellent way to go, Apple and Steve ^-^ We’ll be watching closely, bring everything on and surprise us be Apple, be sophisticated simplicity!
