Photo leak of new touchscreen video iPod

Real or fake? Who knows. Update: This is fake, but still gives you a feel for how the new iPod might look.

Murray Wins SAP Open in San Jose

Andy "Curry" Murray fought off Roddick and Hewitt to clinch his first ATP title in San Jose. The kid is freakishly talented and now has a cute girlfriend (as seen in this footage of his win). What a guy!

New Video iPod with Touch-Screen Click-Wheel

Link: Think Secret - True video iPod to sport 3.5-inch display, touch-screen click wheel.

If true, this is gonna be one seriously sexy device. Imagine the current iPod with a screen covering the entire front face. Touching the screen will cause a virtual click-wheel (and menu) to appear. Yummy!

What about smudgey fingerprints though?!

  • Loved this film. It's a black comedy set during the annual Edinburgh Fringe festival. Features both the dudes from new British comedy "The IT Crowd".

The IT Crowd

So there's a new comedy on Channel 4 and it seems to be getting a lot of hype. Perhaps because they're serving it up on the web and stuff.

Anyway, I watched the first two episodes on Friday and here's my personal low-down. Bear in mind I'm giving some early-episode-leeway.

The boss, Denholm, and Jen (Chris Morris and Katherine Parkinson) are very good and could potentially be superb. On the other hand, the IT dudes Roy and Moss (Chris O'Dowd and Richard Ayoade) grate somewhat (Moss moreso), but hopefully as time goes by their "wacky" tendencies will become more subtle.

In summary then... bright.
