As promised by Apple, customers who got their iPhone 4′s before the end of September would be eligible for a case to help alleviate the reception problems from the poor antenna design of the iPhone 4. Personally I have not had a lot particular reception issues where I need to use the iPhone 4. I can see the signal strength drops if I grip the iPhone the way we are “not supposed to” but I can easily change how I hold it as well. It hasn’t deter me from enjoy using the iPhone 4. Well, now with the bumper case, I should enjoy the iPhone 4 even more.
I didn’t line up for the iPhone 4 when it was first released in Canada at the end of July, so I had to wait. It took about 6 weeks but it is definitely worth waiting. Before I say goodbye to my original iPhone, here are some photos of the iPhones for comparison.
Ever since I got the WD My Book Studio II, I keep all my photos in it as it is a RAID device. A 2TB device provides 1TB of storage when it is in RAID 1 mode (mirrored) and I quickly approach running out of room with RAW files being part of what I keep.

I have had the Logitech MX Revolution Mouse for a few years and I really enjoy using it. It is different from the Apple Magic Mouse that it has more buttons to compensate for the lack of gesture. It is a great mouse and it is rechargeable. But that is where the problem is for this mouse. When the battery stops charging, what would you do?
Apple today revealed the latest Mac mini with HDMI output. I have been waiting for this for a while and now the wait is over! It is sort of a quiet announcement. There is a small mentioning here. Maybe because it is the same day that you can start ordering the iPhone 4, this new product is a bit overshadowed by all other iPhone 4 pre-order craze news.
