Rumoured New MacBooks - leaked pics and more details...

Piper Jaffray’s Gene Munster said

- Higher quality, lower-priced MacBooks. Munster expects the new MacBooks, which currently sell for $1,099 and come in black or white, to be clad in a new aluminum casing with a gesture-based touchpad and to sell for $899 to $999. “In other words, we expect the new MacBooks to be a meaningful upgrade with an [average sales price] 9% to 18% lower.”

- New MacBook Pros. Munster also expects Apple to introduce redesigned MacBook Pros at the same or slightly lower price. The current MacBook Pro design was introduced almost 3 years ago at $1,999. The new machines, he writes, will likely be thinner and include a more-sophisticated, gesture-based trackpad. He estimates they will start at $1,899.

- New MacBook Airs. Munster expects Apple to introduce new MacBook Airs with updated specs, but doesn’t offer any further detail.

- No Tablet Mac. “While we are confident that Apple will eventually bring its touchscreen technology from the iPhone to the Mac,” he writes, “we do not expect to see a touchscreen Mac this year.”

Perfect for music, movies, and games, the new iPod touch features an amazingly thin contoured metal design, a gorgeous 3.5-inch widescreen glass display, 802.11 b/g Wi-Fi wireless networking, integrated volume control buttons, a built-in speaker for casual listening, a built-in accelerometer and other advanced sensors, and Apple’s revolutionary Multi-Touch interface. Available now in 8GB, 16GB, and 32GB models, iPod touch starts at just $229.

Available in nine vibrant colors, the new fourth generation iPod nano — the thinnest iPod ever — features a sleek new design with a curved aluminum and glass enclosure. It also incorporates Genius technology and features a built-in accelerometer that automatically switches to Cover Flow when rotated and automatically goes into Shuffle mode when lightly shaken. iPod nano (4th generation) comes in 8GB and 16GB models, starting at just $149.

IPod Classic is only available for 120GB only now... but that's huge enough.. I need to get some sleep now... more personal opinion soon... :)

Importing Photos from iPod Back To Your Mac

I have encoutered a few times whereby my picture collection in my computer became corrupted... after doing a search on what to do next on the net , i found out that it's easy to be done on a Mac... here's how..

To copy photos from iPod to your computer, make sure the "Enable disk use" option is selected. Follow these steps:

1. Connect iPod to your computer using either your cable or Dock.
2. Open iTunes.
3. Select iPod in the Source pane.
4. Click the Settings tab.
5. Select the option to "Enable disk use".
6. Click OK in the resulting dialog box.
7. Click Apply.

iPhoto and Image Capture should now be able to import photos from iPod.

*Use the import function on iPhoto and direct it to the photos folder in your iPod... this method has been tested and it worked ... not sure what software to use in windows..
