Apple Updates iPhone and iPod Touch

It looks like Apple took the store down this morning and when they brought it back up they increased the memory options on both the iPhone and iPod Touch. The iPhone is now available in a 16GB version for $499 and the Touch comes in a 32GB also for $499.

It doesn’t appear any other items were updated, so those waiting for a multi-touch MacBook Pro or even a speed bump will have to wait a little longer.

If you haven’t experienced either of these devices, I suggest you run out to your local Apple store and spend some time with them. I truly fell in love with my iPhone and wonder how I got by without it. Warning: if you happen to be a bit of an internet junkie and don’t already have a smartphone, these two devices are not conducive to your social interactions.

Apple and Fox team up for iPod versions of movies on DVD

While everyone seems to be thinking that the new MacBookAir and iTunes Movie Rentals are the big deals introduced at MacWorld 2008, but I think it is that the studios are starting to cater to iPod owners. Fox’s DVD of Family Guy’s Blue Harvest will be the first DVD to include an iPod ready format on the disc that the user can automatically import into iTunes.
