The first step towards the inevitable.
Apple this morning announced Mac Pro, iMac an Display refreshes, but also brought Multi Touch to Macintosh line.

Multi Touch on the Mac is something that we predicted when the iPhone was first demo’ed. This sort of user integration is natural, and it was only a matter of time before it was going to be part of the Mac experience.

While not a wild prediction, this is all obvious, we applaud Apple for taking this first step toward a deeper, richer User Interface. Here’s to Multi Touch’s future.

Finally, unlocked, but we wish it were Apple who made the decision.
Very early in the iPhone rumor stage, well before Apple even announced their mobile handset, we asked Apple to ship the iPhone as an unlocked mobile phone. You all know what actually happened: we’ve been wedded to ATT from the get-go.

A bit over three years later it looks like we’re going to get our unlocked iPhone, our only gripe is that Apple is going to be forced by the government to accept this consumer courtesy.

While the Apple critics will, of course, see this development as a strike against Apple, this is going to increase sales of iPhones. Particularly if Apple doesn’t fight the government. ATT, on the other hand, will suffer as this might well speed up Apple’s plans to issue a TMobile or Verizon iPhone.

$7,000, but you get White Glove delivery
The iPhone 4 is in hot demand. You know that. But have you checked eBay? The new Apple handset is fetching prices in the range of $5,000. One even sold for (to eBay completed listing) $7,000, complete with White Glove delivery:

The evasive white iPhone 4
AppleInsider has a post regarding Best Buy and the white iPhone 4. There’s some evidence that points to the availability of the white iPhone 4 on launch day, June 24th.

Obviously, this is important because there are many iPhone 4 buyers waiting for more information on the white variation. But we also find this information compelling because it stands to reason that if there are two colors available on the 24th, more customers who missed out on ordering an iPhone on the first day will have a chance at getting an iPhone on June 24th, rather than waiting for the two other shipping dates that were made available after the black iPhone sold out on June 15th.

Lines are already forming outside Apple Retail Stores, so we predict that getting an iPhone from a retail store, with out a previous iPhone 4 reservation, will be something only the hardcore Apple fans will enjoy. But that’s yet to be determined. Let the show begin!

Apple Updates Mobile Me
Find the new feature highlights discussed at AppleInsider.com. Among the improvements, we find the support for external email email addresses (since beta) and the addition of rules to be the most important new features. This should bring Mobile Me up to a level where serious email users might now consider it as a viable alternative to their current Web email client.

Apple also introduced the Find my iPhone app (link to iTunes Store at right). The app will allow for device location and the basic Find My iPhone functionality available through Mobile Me. Great feature, IMO. Apple should advertise this in their iPhone ads.

Save 30% Now!
We feature Mobile Me available through Amazon for an instant savings of up to 30-percent. Link located above-right.

But that’s just the beginning. Our last annual renewal cost just $17, purchased through eBay. Find out how you can save 30%, 60% even 80% or more on Mobile Me right here.

Verizon iPhone 4 Rumors Back...On!
Apple’s iPhone rumors routinely come and go regarding compatibility with carriers other than ATT. To this point, however, nothing has been confirmed by Apple.

Today, the Verizon iPhone rumor popped up again, this time with a 4th Quarter 2010 date attached. See MacRumors’ coverage here.

It might be worth skimming the comments section. A fairly healthy debate over whether or not CDMA is still a valid option in the States is going on there.

Expect delivery on the 24th.
