iPad Overview including HD introduction video

Today Stephen Paul Jesus Jobs introduced Apples soon to be blockbuster device named the iPad. Who knew? Everyone thought it would be slate although that sounds like the snow mixed with water that doesn’t stick right? So it features a 1024×768 display which is so 2001 on a 9 inch screen which is incredibly decent for the 3.2 iPhone iOS and can read books good. I really love the HD Video Playback capability but hating the NO HD Video Camera Recording and any sort of video trimming. Would have been a perfect reel director device right? Still I’m saving up for the 64GB Wifi version then will have to save up again for the ‘Anticipated’ iPhone. I.E I’m working out the game plan. I have €100 out of €500. By march with chinese new year etc I should be close to either €200 or €250 or more. In march I’m getting my operation so I suppose a sad face and my dads credit card I could probably get the tablet then but I want to save up for it myself. So my dad will probably give me €300 bucks which will then fund the tablet. Then in April get more money about €150 which will go towards my iPhone 4G Fund + 3 months of saving (iPhones usually come around July) So Now I can’t spend at all for the next half year. Huh. This feels weird! Anyhow I got my hands on a HD Version of the video so for non quicktime users heres a youtube HD Version I uploaded!

MacBook Pro, Money back after scamming me for repair!!

So awhile back in April 09 Apple charged me around €850 to change the screen after it broke from cracks on both sides of the bezel and it was my fault. I knew I couldn’t have done it but sure enough i Paid in Cash (Now the company is mactivate and is a apple authroized repair centre and apple sends most of their repairs there). Now a few months later to now I read this: http://discussions.apple.com/thread….97403&tstart=0

http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=395789 . I mean who did I go to. Since then I got the airport card fixed along with a replaced motherboard. Should I ask for my money back, a new mac what do i do?!! Should I phone my consumer rights @ http://www.consumerconnect.ie/eng/ I dunno. I’m kind of gutted at this moment as I could have bought lots of goods with that money. (I’m asking as some others got theirs replaced for free)

iJust killed a mouse with my 2K Laptop (Not me!)

This post has so much fail I can’t describe my fail feelings!

AHHHH WTF to do with all my gear

HELP HELP HELP HELP!!

Websites for Tech!

Hello internet, the sales are on and damn with my €250 I’m going to do some real barging hunting I so far plan to buy a :

* Apple Wireless Keyboard With Magic mouse + Bluetooth dongle for my Hackintosh as a logitech G15 Gaming keyboard takes up 60% of my desk for heavens sake!

* Replace the motherboard on a Faulty PowerBook G4 I can take to School. (I don’t think anyone would take a new MacBook Pro to school)

* A New 1TB Hard Drive.

* A new Sony DCRA Deck for a broken Firewire port on a Sony mini DV Camera.

So! Your probably wondering I want to do some sale shopping to but what websites do I want to go onto well here is some websites for most countries:

Komplett : Covers most of europe mine is Http://www.Komplett.ie

Elara: A irish website that does some deals but is mostly for PCs

Newegg: A American/Candian website that does lots of great January Sale deals.

TigerDirect: Another website that has great deals
