New Episodes of Fox’s House Won’t Be on iTunes

Paul

New episodes of popular Fox show House will not be available on iTunes, a spokesperson for Apple confirmed to B&C.

Despite airing on Fox, House is produced by Universal Media Studios, a subsidiary of NBC Universal, which is severing its ties with iTunes when their contract expires in December.

House, which has been available on iTunes since May, began its fourth season on Fox last week. The ratings for the season premiere were the best for any returning show on any network so far. The season premiere delivered a 7.7 rating/19 share in the coveted 18-49 demographic.

What is Fox going to do the same thing, I actually like the show House. Isn’t this going a bad sign for Itune’s and Apple? I really do not like the idea of this, because I will not support NBC.

All Macs all the Time

Paul

I would like to say I know where this is going and why! 😉 I know people don’t like Vista. So what else are we going to see I actually think Vista is going down the tubes. I think kids these days are wanting a stable and efficient OS so they are picking MacBooks and not Dells, Gateway, and All the other brands. I am hopeful something comes out of this before people get really annoyed with Microsoft.

Nokia unlocks anti-Apple campaign

Paul

The quartet of posters above was photographed in New York city over the weekend by a MacRumors forum jockey. Of course, this isn’t the first time we’ve seen Nokia pounce on Apple foibles, and it certainly won’t be the last. Even if Nokia can’t help but copy the iPhone interface design in its own future-looking presentations.

This is so like the best thing to happen. I hope nokia does stick it to APPPLE!!

iPhone 1.1.1 “bug” unleashes music over Bluetooth

Paul

The iPhone 1.1.1 update has a hidden little surprise for y’all: Bluetooth audio streaming is now available off of your iPhone for whatever you darn please, meaning you can finally listen to music from the phone wirelessly. Oddly enough, this “function” has been unleashed by a Visual Voicemail bug that leaves Bluetooth audio on even after you’ve left the Voicemail interface. Of course, it’s only mono audio, and the audio keeps playing out of your built-in speaker — if you plug in headphones to cut off the speaker you’ll lose Bluetooth streaming as well — but it’s nice to see Apple forking over some “should have been there in the first place” functionality accidentally to go along with all that stuff of the same ilk 1.1.1 took away from us.

I wonder if this is going to stay?

iPhone Re-Reviewed (Verdict: Don’t Buy)

Paul

It’s about 3 months after the iPhone launch, and happy with the improvements, I was planning to change our “Wait” verdict to a full-on and rabid “Buy”. That wasn’t because of Apple, but because of the cool apps being offered by independent developers. All that came to an end yesterday after the new Apple firmware 1.1.1 neutered the handset. Sure, unlocked iPhones were broken. But more importantly, Apple wiped away the powerful programs that helped push the iPhone to greatness. With this, I’m going to have to move our recommendation from “Wait” to “Don’t hold your breath.” I’m done with this handset until third-party apps come back.

Well Gizmodo pretty much sums up what I have being thinking, It’s not worth buying due to no Third party applications. When they let people use third party applications then It will be an Awesome phone, but until then it isn’t worth buying
