App Store Vs iTunes Buttons

When the new iTunes 10 came out, one thing that immediately caught my eye were the close, minimize, maximize buttons (the “red, yellow green” buttons if you’re confused).

Here is what we have in iTunes 10 which is different from all the previous versions of iTunes and all other Apple software.

Hmm, I’m not sure I like the vertical buttons. The horizontal had a lot going for them. Will this be a new trend or did someone simply try something new to see how it went.

Vaccines

I’m sure that there are a lot of pro-vaccine people out there breathing a sigh of relief right now. Finally it has been proven that the Autism link and the MMR shot was pure bullshit.

As a new Dad, I’ve heard a lot about vaccinations and the risks. There are a lot of people touting that the shots are unsafe. And that their child “changed” after getting the shots. You’ll here some very passionate speeches from both the sides of the argument and quite honestly, I’m not really one to get in on either side. What you decide to do for your child is your choice.

Prediction Fail

Its safe to say, my prediction on the Verizon event was completely wrong.

Verizon announced the iPhone4 for their network today.

So, will you be switching?

Personally, I’m going to be waiting a bit since I just upgraded to the iPhone4 when it was announced. When the wife and I get closer to our contracts, I have a feeling that I will be a Verizon customer. Hopefully LTE will be out by then in Des Moines.

Verizon Event Predictions

Verizon has announced a mysterious event next week and they’re not giving many details. The Wall Street Journal is predicting the iPhone on Verizon. Engadget isn’t 100% sure but as they state, where there is smoke…

My personal opinion, Verizon isn’t going to announce the iPhone on Tuesday. Why? Its a Verizon event. And Apple is NOT going to let Verizon announce Apple’s phone going anywhere. I just can’t see it.

I think we’ll see the iPhone announced later at MacWorld 2011. It makes more sense for Apple to announce it at their event.
