Mac News Weekly - WMV: Mac News Weekly - #46

I am safety back home from the 3,000 mile roadtrip where the wonderful people at GeekBrief somehow inspired me to change up the format of the show (don't worry, only slightly!). On Wednesday, Best Buy announced that it would begin selling the iPhone 3G at 970 of their stores in September. The move comes just a week after Best Buy completed transitioning all of their stores to be equipped with a new mobile center. I always knew that the AppStore would be a great success. Steve Jobs confirmed my suspicions in Monday's Wall Street Journal. In the first 30 days, nearly 60 million apps have been downloaded, garnering in almost $30 million dollars for developers. One of the most popular applications, Super-Monkey-Ball saw 300,000 downloads in only the first 20 days. I go to a Mac laptop school, and one thing that I hate is when students disturb the class by getting up and plugging their laptop in. The Oncore 6 Bay MacBook and iBook charger may be a perfect solution. It can hold up to 6 batteries at a time, but only charge 3 simultaneously. Sorry folks, no MacBookPro support at this time. It costs $395. Australia and New Zealand now have more content to enjoy on the iTunes Store. Movies are now available to rent and purchase on the iTunes Store.
