  1. You're welcome. Maybe one of you Serious-Fi guys, who could convincingly pose as a potential buyer, could correspond with them and see if they'd give any more details of what's in the box?
  2. Until 2008, apparently.

    I kind of hate you for letting me know those are even out there.
  5. I know I talked to someone about these guys at CanJam and said I'd post a link. Think it was Jim, but after a couple of over-refreshed memory slips already I ain't going out on a limb. They're flogging a (very expensive) modular DAC/SACD player with full digital inputs and claiming total jitter immunity. Easily dismissed as the usual hi-fi hyperbole except that the tech guy behind it is Andreas Koch, who I believe has long been one of the heaviest hitters in the SACD/DSD world. Anyway, here it is Jim (or whoever). Playback Designs
  6. I liked my reading better. Gazebo -- The Collection I declare the HD800s the finest Italo-Disco headphones ever made!
  7. Potential win. Finally extending MobileMe to really leverage the iPhone. Let's see if it actually works!

  13. Michael Franti & Spearhead -- All Rebel Rockers Off to smash the system. Right after picking my daughter up from Little Pony Summer Camp.
  14. Can't see it being too bad at the stores this time around for an essentially incremental upgrade. But those Mactards are crazy, so who knows.
  15. Reserved 32GB 3G S for release day.
  16. Michael Franti And Spearhead -- Yell Fire!
  17. Ha. I just put this on reserve at the library the other day and will also be buying as soon as it comes out in softcover.
  18. Assuming OS X actually supported Blu-ray decoding.
  19. Then suffer. Bit of a disappointment here finding my 2008 iMac won't be able to take advantage of GPU acceleration in Snow Leopard. Even for Apple, the list of supported cards is pretty fucking short and the disqualified systems of startlingly recent vintage!
  20. Bryan Ferry -- In Your Mind
