When the Apple Store went down last night it was like a Wednesday news reporter’s wet dream. Then I woke up, and found that all Apple had nocturnally emitted was Aperture 3.

A ‘personal assistant‘ app for the iPhone. I made my request and two weeks later a dismembered pole vaulter’s arm arrived in the mail. They’ve some work to do.

So Amazon are rethinking the Kindle. The guy in this video reckons it looks like something Mennonites made 150 years ago. I didn’t think they had e-ink back then, so I’m not sure that was possible, but hey, he’s the expert.

Here’s a thing to get stuff on your whatsit.

If El Jobso lets you borrow his iPad, do not use it to tweet.

If the fact that the upcoming iPad cannot record video is a deal-breaker for you, fret not. There may be something in the works.

Apple fans pay lots of money to be cool. I would say we pay fair market value for great products that work seamlessly with each other to enable our digital lifestyles… but I’m a rabid fanboy, so ignore me.
