MobileMe iDisk App Update is Available.

If you’re an iPhone and MobileMe user, get the MobileMe iDisk App update now.

MobileMe is available from Apple for $99.99 (Single User) and $149.99 (Family Pack). Go to Apple Retail Store, and often they will sell you MobileMe on a discounted price.

If you’re want to get MobileMe, get it from Amazon for an everyday discounted price (2010.02.17).

If you’re not a MobileMe user, I recommend Dropbox. Even if you’re not an iPhone user, Dropbox is highly recommended.

Waiting for New MacBook Pro to appear on Apple Store today? Don’t hold your breath.

The rumor is still alive and kicking. Maybe this Tuesday Apple would release the new Core i5/i7/i405 MacBook Pros. Well, I’ve been waiting for the 72-core MacBook Pro for a long time. I’m due for a new Computer, and I want another MacBook Pro. The last purchase I made was 4 years ago when the first generation MacBook Pro was released.

OK, I have seen some Core i7 laptops and so far I am not impressed. HP Envy 15 is a disaster. No optical drive, horribly unusable trackpad and not worth the sticker price.

Come on Apple, where’s my Core i37 MacBook Pro? Yeah, the one with 73-core CPU.

You can go back to sleep now, and stop F5-ing the Apple Store page.

User Agent for iPad Web Browser.

Combing through the logs, it says:

“Mozilla/5.0 (iPad; U; CPU OS 3_2 like Mac OS X; en-us) AppleWebKit/531.21.10 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.4 Mobile/7B320c Safari/531.21.10”

It must be the iPad OS 3.2 beta.

Adobe Responds to Flash Crash Bug.

As we have previously discovered, Flash 10.1 beta is not affected by the crash-inducing bug. Matthew Dempsky has been pressing this issue for quite a while. The news hits front page of Hacker News earlier this week and garnered more attentions.

Adobe has now officially responded to this bug. The fix will beincluded in Flash 10.1 that will be released sometimes in 2010. Considering the nature of this bug, Adobe should have included the fix sooner in the 10.0.x release.

I have been using ClickToFlash for a while to weed out those pesky Flash-based ads. In addition to that I have not been missing Flash on the iPhone and iPod touch at all. In a way I’m glad that the iPad won’t be supporting Flash plugin.

Seriously, I don’t really depend on Flash when surfing the web.

Note to Darren Carter, you need to dump the stupid Flash-based site of yours. Get a real webmaster!
