Reviews of Movies I Have Not Seen.

On this posting, I will be reviewing movies that I have not seen. As a matter of fact, none of any members of the general public has seen the movie. I’ll review it based on the online preview.

It’s an easy thing to review those movies, just like what Paul Thurrott is doing with his brilliant preview of Apple’s revamped and rebranded .Mac service; MobileMe.

How in the world Paul Thurrott knows anything about MobileMe? Thurrott is the last person you want to hear from when it comes to anything non-Microsoft. As a matter of fact, it’s painful to listen to Thurrott, because he sounds like a Microsoft PR person; if he is not one already.

For the love of whatever God you believe in, please stop your web-hit seeking babbles. You have not used MobileMe service, and no one should read or listen to your misleading opinions. You parrots anything that Microsoft puts out and keeps telling people that you are impartial. Don’t you remember that you actually published your opinions in magazine and on the Internet.

What’s next? You’re going to preview and review Mac OS X Snow Leopard. Maybe you’d convince your readers that  Mac OS X Snow Leopard is a Windows 7 rip-off.

Apple introduces MobileMe

As many have feared, Apple introduced MobileMe as the successor to .Mac service. MobileMe will be available for Mac and Windows OS, where .Mac only supports Mac OS.

MobileMe retails for:

  • $99 for Single User
  • $149 for Family Pack (The MobileMe Family Pack is an individual MobileMe subscription plus four Family Member Accounts, each with its own email address, iDisk folder, and 5GB of online storage space (40GB total online storage).)

MobileMe works with applications such as:

  • Microsoft Outlook on a PC.
  • Mail, Address Book, and iCal on a Mac.
  • Mail, Contacts, and Calendar on your iPhone or iPod touch.

MobileMe also enables members to access and manage email, contacts, calendar, photos, and files at me.com.

Features:

  • 20GB of online storage space, double the current .Mac storage space.
  • @me.com email address
  • Push email, calendar, and contacts.
  • Current .Mac members will be automatically upgraded to MobileMe service. In addition to that, .Mac members will retain @mac.com email as they can create new email @me.com.
  • Available for Mac OS X and Windows OS

Minimum Web browser requirements for me.com applications:

Notes:

www.me.com redirects to www.apple.com/mobileme
me.com is not yet active.

Since me.com does support Firefox 2, does this mean it can also be used under Linux?

Tech Analyst Wanted, Brain is Not Required.

It is too obvious that many “Tech Analysts” are simply spewing gibberish and trying to present them as facts. One year soon will pass to the iPhone day, June 29th, 2008. In the meantime, the “interweb” is filled with more of the same things over and over again. In essence, one site is quoting the other while many bloggers simply did the “cut and paste” plus some personalization to the non-story. Some well known tech-blogs are simply making stuff up based on the available informations.

“The iPhone 2.0 is coming, The iPhone 2.0 is coming!”

Eventually, the “iPhone 2.0” will be released. It is the question of exactly when. Let’s make up a news item right now.

  • The iPhone was originally released on June 29th, 2007.
  • In general, 1 year is a good “round number” between product revisions.
  • This year Apple WWDC will be held in June; June 9th to 13th to be precise.
  • Steve Jobs said that iPhone SDK will be officially released sometimes in June 2008, including the iPhone Apps store.
  • Apparently the iPhone is not available in the Apple Store (Online and Retail locations).
  • People are claiming that they’ve found iPhone 2.0 proof more than Elvis sighting.

“Captain Obvious is calling!”

It doesn’t take genius to put together all the “signs” and come up with some crazy speculations that many people would believe.

In addition to that, there are some “tech-analysts” making some stupid statements regarding the product that does not officially exist yet.

Déjà vu!

It’s June 2007 all over again.

One particular idiotic “tech-analyst” was talking about the iPhone which he didn’t even have. Criticizing the iPhone for its material. Don’t you think that Apple engineers know more than you, Mr. “tech-analyst” extraordinaire. You haven’t had one logically sound statement since the day you called yourself a tech-analyst. In addition to that you are completely biased to the point where the masses believe that you are taking payola from companies. Please shut the ASDF up and get yourself a job at your local fast food establishment.

Then, there’s one or two or more “journalists” who are suffering from the “I know more than you because I’m always right” syndrome. We all know that you are in the pocket of certain corporations, even if you’re actually volunteering yourself to them. How can you say that everyone else is wrong and you know exactly what those companies are thinking. You always bragging that you got all the “internal for-your-eyes-only” memo. You are working for them, and please stop calling yourself a journalist. Call yourself as you are; spokeperson of that particular company.

The other type of “tech-journalist” that should stop whatever they’re doing right now are the ones don’t know anything about technology but pretending that hey do. Because you have some journalism degree? That doesn’t mean a thing. You have been contradicting yourself on record, and still won’t admit it. Being a journalist, you should have been taking a non-partisan stance when it comes to reporting the news. We don’t want to hear your opinions. You admitted that almost everything you touch (use) are somewhat having problems because you generate some kind of magnetic field that disrupts electronic devices. Even with such admissions, you singled out certain products (from certain companies) for being “turd” (pardon the language). You had not even use or even see it in person. Then, after you’re actually using it, you complained that the product was always broken because it’s simply “crappy”. Don’t you remember you said that you are the cause of all the failures in the electronic device you’re using? Please shut the ASDF up. I hope the big company who acquired your employer would fire you.

This rant is getting longer, and I still have a lot more ranting to do. To the point!

Just because you used to work for a huge technology-based company, doesn’t mean that you know everything. You’re a shill! I am not reading your blog, or anything that you’re saying. Please get a real job and stop thinking that you are so important.

I should end this rant because I need to get some sleep. Before that, let me say something that is completely made up:

The second generation iPhone is going on sale on June 27th 2008.

There I said it.
