Hey, welcome back to squeeq! I’ve been away for almost two weeks as I spent NYE in warmer fields, however, my cable was cold. That’s why I could not post any sooner…

OK, What was important? So much, but to pick just a few: New Years Eve, and of course Apple’s Keynote at MWSF on January 6. Besides new iLife ‘09, iWork ‘09, a new unibody aluminum 17″ MacBook Pro, there was yet another product reveiled: The MacBook Wheel:

Apple Special MacBook Event

I love those days. Mac days. Those days on which you know that something great will happen. Today is such a day, and the outcome was great. First of all, the “Brick” rumor turn out to be true, and second, the new designs are truly beautiful.

As expected, Steve Jobs introduced the new MacBook, new MacBook Pro and a new Cinema Display.

Ok, I’m back. This also applies to the MacBook and MacBook Pro. Apple usually sends out invitations to upcoming events one week in advance and today, Gizmodo and Engadget received one, showing the picture above.

On october 14, Steve Jobs is to announce the innovations and specs of the new notebooks, and rest assured, they will leave a mark. Reliable sources listed the following specifications: NVIDIA GPU, larger drives and LCD-backlit screens. The Inquisitr claims that some Apple retailers have already been given price lists for Apple’s upcoming laptops and that there are 12 price points ranging from $800 to $3100. Current laptops are said to have only have 8 retail price points: 3 Macbooks (starting at $1099), 3 Macbook Pros and 2 Macbook Airs.

Earlier this week, the website Apple.pro released what was said to be spyshots of the new MacBook Pro covers. A referral to “The Brick” was doubted (see pics below). Stay tuned for more information.

Doodle helps finding suitable dates for group events, e.g., an appointment, a conference call, a family reunion, etc. Doodle is particularly useful to people who do not use a common calendar. In addition to scheduling events, Doodle also supports polls in general.

That is, groups can conveniently decide on options other than dates: the movie for the next movie night, the logo of the new Web site, the restaurant for the Christmas dinner, etc.

Doodle is a Web-based service which is free, requires no registration and no software installation.
