Here’s the updated Apple iMac (sporting the new Aluminum Keyboard of course). It’s thinner than before, encased in anodized aluminum and all iMacs comes with glossy screens.
The 17" model is gone now and they offer three different models - two with 20" and one with 24".
Here’s the first ad for the updated iMac:
Yeah. Pretty boring, but you gotta admit that the machines look good.

Here’s the new Apple Keyboard, now featuring low-profile keys (like the MacBooks) and an anodized aluminum casing instead of plastic. The wired, extended keyboard sports a numeric keypad along with bunch of extra buttons for document navigation, Exposé, brightness, volume, eject and play/pause.
The wireless Bluetooth keyboard is smaller and feature the same low-profile keys but without the extra buttons (and numeric keypad) and features intelligent power management to conserve the battery life.

The MainNav MW-705 is a bulky and rugged time piece which - besides telling the current time - manages to tell you exactly where you are in the world as well as the current altitude, your speed, distance and heart rate. Built-in Bluetooth enables it to act as a receiver for external gadgets as well.

OK, so USB powered webcams is old news, but how about a USB-powered digital microscope sporting 1.3 megapixel images? That means up to 200x zoom and it features both still images and timelapses.
“This microscope provides you an easy way to zoom in on a wide variety of objects to satisfy your curiosity of the world around you. Ever wondered what lint looks like or the mold growing on your week-old bagels? Now you can find out.”

Oh yeah, it was just a matter of time, wasn’t it? The guys over at AnandTech has already opened up their $600 iPhone and dissected it, making sure to photograph every delicate piece removed of course.
Warning: Doing something like this might eventually cause Apple not to refund your phone. Everyone can’t be as lucky as the guy who - after not even owning his iPhone for 24 hours - dropped his iPhone and broke its screen (yeah, Apple gave him a new one).
Floater is a vertical MacBook Pro dock milled out of one chunk of aluminum to make it blend with the laptop as much as possible, besides saving space on your desk it’s designed to help the airflow and cool your ‘puter down (those MacBooks can get quite hot, mind you).
Silicon pads make sure the laptop sits safe and comfortably while making sure you’re not scratching anything and there’s drilled holes for all cables.
Check out the price before getting your hopes up though, 305 bucks. Expensive aluminum indeed.

LaCie 2TB Ethernet Big Disk is, despite the name, actually quite small. Hook this up on your network and you’ll have 2 whopping terabytes of storage (about 2000 gigabytes) for all your P2P and torrent document backup needs. There’s a way cheaper 1TB model available as well, but that would never be enough now, would it?
Other than the impressive storage capabilities it’s fully Windows, Mac and Linux compatible and can stream multimedia content to UPnP-compatible devices.
(Man, I remember saving money an entire summer to buy a 300 MB HDD once)
