I finally installed the 240 GB OCZ Agility 3 SSD in a MacBook Pro early 2011 model. Got it for about $240 at Amazon a few weeks back. I was going to get the 240 GB OCZ Vertex 3 SSD, but it was $100 more at that time. I’ll get the better SSD next time.

First World Problem at its best.
Little birdie said that some well known Apple employees are boarding flights to China. This would be the first trip for Apple employee following the Fair Labor Association (FLA) inspections of Foxconn factories.
While there are no specific informations on the purpose of the visit, one could only guess that it might be related to the next iPad, which expected to be called iPad 3.
For the purpose of this post, let’s call the next iPad by the name “iPad 3“.
It makes a lot of sense that Apple would release iPad 3 in March/April timeframe since the first one hit the street on April 3rd, 2010 and the second one on March 11th, 2011. In December 2011, my ever-reliable source told me “the next iPad is coming March 2012”. I mentioned this back on December 9th, 2011.
What I learned then about iPad 3 is the followings:
Existing Smart Cover?
Think of iPad 3 to iPad 2 as iPhone 3GS to iPhone 3G. Just like iPhone 4S to iPhone 4.
There were no mentions of the shape or thickness of iPad 3 back shell. I assume the back would be different and the glass front would be physically the same.
p.s. Check back Wednesday February 22nd, 2012. I have a meeting with a little birdie who knows a lot about Apple.
An associates told us about the trouble with his Apple ID for the past 24 hours. He was unable to log-on to any Apple services that requires Apple ID such as iTunes Store, iCloud and most importantly Apple Developer site.
He said that he was able to reset the password through iforgot.apple.com, but a minute later the account was disabled again. So he contacted Apple and had them investigated if there were any suspicious activities on his account. So far they found no suspicious activities on iTunes Store and iCloud.

One of the hard drives in a Windows Home Server has gone bad. I’m working to get it replaced. Actually I want to get a new file server.
Sometimes I wonder if I had too much time to kill.
