Submission + - Vortex's Take on the Model M: Cover Band or New Legend? (ofb.biz)

uninet writes: What would happen if you took the classic layout and look of the IBM Model M keyboard and rebuilt it with modern mechanical guts? Vortex decided to find out and the result is a unique board with one foot in two different decades. Passed up the Legend itself because it lacks too many modern comforts? I explore whether the Remix might satisfy, fittingly, in our article #1337.

Submission + - Apple Needs a Snow Sequoia 1

uninet writes: "The same year Apple launched the iPhone, it unveiled a massive upgrade to Mac OS X known as Leopard, sporting “300 New Features.” Two years later, it did something almost unheard of: it released Snow Leopard, an upgrade all about how little it added and how much it took away. Apple needs to make it snow again."

Submission + - The Verizon MiFi is a Great Friend for the iPhone (ofb.biz)

uninet writes: "Over the course of a few days last week, I was able to spend a good deal of time with Verizon's amazing little MiFi 3G router. It performed its task of providing speedy Wi-Fi internet to other devices via a EvDO Rev. A connection very well. Ironically, the red V network's device even improved the experience of using my iPhone, making it usable for surfing where its native network (AT&T) doesn't even connect. Check out my findings at Open for Business."

Submission + - AT&T 3G Upgrades Degrade 2G Signal Strength (ofb.biz)

Timothy R. Butler writes: "Much to the chagrin of owners of various 2G cell phones on AT&T Mobility's network, including the highly visible, and originally highly expensive first generation iPhone, we have discovered that AT&T has been quietly adjusting its network in ways that degrade 2G network performance as it has sought to build out its next generation 3G network. Many of the phones affected are still well within their two year contract period."
