The Original iPhone (circa 1983)

2 Comments 06 January 2012

Photos of a prototype Apple phone device from 1983 have been circling the web the past week.  It’s fun to look at these shots of something the folks at Apple dreamed up during that era. It’s a testament to the forward thinking designers at Apple that I’d consider buying one these today if they marketed [...]

The Pixar Movie that Didn’t Make It

1 Comment 04 September 2010

In 2008, Pixar announced that they were going to be making a movie called “Newt” about the last two blue-toed newts on the planet and their adventure to save the species.  The film was referenced at a couple of Pixar events since that initial announcement too.  Hard-core Pixar fans were really looking forward to something [...]

New Kindle… Smaller! Faster! Cheaper! Better?

7 Comments 30 July 2010
