- MDNS and caffeine: How I got Bonjour running on my iPhone
Filed under: Cool tools, Hacks, iPhone
See this picture? It's a picture of my iPod touch. But here is the interesting thing. The picture you see is actually a screen shot from my iPod touch. As you can see from the iPod logo, it has no on-board camera. Instead, it's subscribed to a Bonjour service on my iPhone and using its camera instead to take a picture of itself.

http://www.tuaw.com/2007/10/22/apple-q4-2007-results-conference-call-liveblog/#comments - AAPL Q4 earnings announced, $1.01 per share
Filed under: Apple Financial
1.12 million iPhones sold in Apple's fiscal Q4. After-hours trading has AAPL at $182+ per share.
Analyst estimates were at about $0.82/share and anywhere over 1M iPhones sold, so this is beyond expectations in every respect. 2.164M Macs sold, which is over the Wall Street target of 2 million computers... this is the first 2M+ Mac quarter ever for Apple. 10.2 million iPods sold.
Yee-ikes. Here's the press release. Join us at 5 pm ET for the conference call liveblog.
"Apple ended the fiscal year with $15.4 billion in cash and no debt," said Peter Oppenheimer, Apple's CFO. "Looking ahead to the first quarter of fiscal 2008, we expect revenue of about $9.2 billion and earnings per diluted share of about $1.42."Read | Permalink | Email this | CommentsКомментарии к сообщению:

Filed under: Apple
As of Friday, Apple will have released five major updates to Mac OS X since its introduction in 2001 (unless you want to count the public beta. Nit-pickers). In Monday's interview with The New York Times, Steve Jobs said this pace will continue:
"'I'm quite pleased with the pace of new operating systems every 12 to 18 months for the foreseeable future,' he said. 'We've put out major releases on the average of one a year, and it's given us the ability to polish and polish and improve and improve.'"
That's a lot of innovation in a short amount of time. Considering the changes between 10.0 and 10.5, can you even imagine what 10.9 will look like? Steve also says that the Mac platform appears to have gained momentum with buyers, which should come as no surprise to our readers. Is the Mac reaching a tipping point with switchers and new customers? Maybe the upcoming earnings report will offer some clues.Read | Permalink | Email this | CommentsКомментарии к сообщению:

Filed under: Internet Tools, iPhone
Over at the official Google Docs blog they've announced a a revision of the Google Docs interface designed more mobile devices, in particular the iPhone. You can now get "mobile-optimized versions of your docs, spreadsheets, and even presentations (for iPhone only for now)" by pointing your mobile browser at http://docs.google.com/m .
Unfortunately, the revision is still read-only, allowing you to view your documents, but not to edit them. Hopefully, Google will figure out a way to bring editing to the iPhone before February. In any case, this could still come in handy if you're a regular Google Docs user on the go.

http://www.tuaw.com/2007/10/22/google-docs-optimized-for-viewing-on-the-iphone/#comments - Behind the scenes at Apple Retail
Alex Frankel, a reporter for Fast Company magazine, recently undertook a two-year undercover project to investigate the ways companies train their retail staffs. Among his targets was Apple, and he has concluded that "Apple Stores, with their aura of cool, were in fact living up to their mission to 'reinvent retail' and setting a high bar for other companies in the retail world." Frankel notes how Apple does things differently, treating new employees as adults, but most importantly positioning them as "sharers of information, instead of sellers of products."
I've long thought that Apple basically gets retail right (even if there is room for improvement -- e.g. sometimes it takes too long to get help). It's interesting to see just how how they do things differently and why that makes them so successful.

http://www.tuaw.com/2007/10/22/behind-the-scenes-at-apple-retail/#comments - Apple earnings report today, liveblog at 5pm ET
Filed under: Apple Financial
If you're interested in the financial performance of the company formerly known as Apple Computer, Inc., today is a marked day on the calendar. Quarterly results will be announced after the close of the markets, and since this is the first full quarter of iPhone sales there should be lots of juicy tidbits to review. More coverage at Blogging Stocks and Apple 2.0; the consensus is that Apple's guidance on earnings is extremely conservative.
We'll be liveblogging the conference call as it happens this afternoon, so check back then for more.Read | Permalink | Email this | CommentsКомментарии к сообщению:

Filed under: Software, Internet Tools
Alex Faaborg has an interesting post up on the visual design of the forthcoming version 3 of Firefox. Basically reversing their long-standing policy of trying to make Firefox look the same across all platforms, version 3.0 will feature OS specific design "to achieve an even closer level of visual integration than we have had in previous releases." What this means of OS X is something close to the new unified style that's coming in Leopard and has already been demonstrated in iTunes and iLife '08.
I know that many Mac users prefer Camino to Firefox (both of which use the Mozilla gecko rendering engine) because Firefox just doesn't "look right" in OS X. It will be interesting to see how well Firefox 3 works with Leopard (and Tiger) and whether that will be enough to convert Camino users like myself. Of course, as we've mentioned before, the page widgets will also be an important aspect of getting the look right in OS X.
Thanks to everyone who sent this in!Read | Permalink | Email this | CommentsКомментарии к сообщению:
