I called it.
Or rather, I guessed it.
I have some new insight to share with you regarding the portable device Apple is working on. In a previous article, I described the mysterious portable as perhaps Apple’s rival product to the Intel Ultra Mobile PC ( UMPC ) initiative. In talking to several sources close to the secretive project, a few more details have emerged while the actual identity of the device is still shrouded in mystery.

Lame Commercials, Boring Game
Ugh. You know it’s a bad sign when you can read through hundreds of RSS feed items during the Super Bowl. And then think it’s a good idea to do some blogging….
Super Bowl commercial rates were $2.7 million per 30 seconds this year, but apparently, the FOX network decided that it was money well “spent” to advertise the Daytona 500 and “Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles” ad nauseam, two things that a good chunk of the audience doesn’t care about. I haven’t seen a really groundbreaking commercial yet: the Audi parody of the famous “bed” scene from The Godfather was well done, and the parody of Rocky for Budweiser (Anheuser Busch) was enjoyable. Fed Ex also scored with the “Carrier Pigeon” spot. Mediocre first half showing for the Bud Light brand. Miserable commercials for godaddy.com and salesgenie.com (big surprise)
If you missed it, check out the next showing of Puppy Bowl IV: they’re sooooo cute. I want a billion.
Hoping for a better second half both in the game and during the comercials.
