Steve Wozniak’s iPhone Prototype T-Shirt
During last week’s iPhone leak saga, Steve Wozniak, co-founder of Apple, reached out to us with a story: The morning of the iPad launch, an engineer showed Woz an iPad for two minutes. For this he was fired.
It’s a story that paints Apple as many people already see the company: ruthlessly secretive, and even vindictive. It also sheds some light on the story of Gray Powell, an Apple engineer whose breach of secrecy was at once less intentional, more severe and infinitely more public—until now. In the words of Woz:

Smoking Near Apple Computers Creates Biohazard, Voids Warranty
Unless you've just arrived in 2009 on a time machine, you know that smoking isn't good for you. Did you know, that smoking isn't good for your computer, either? It's true, at least according to Apple. Two readers in different parts of the country claim that their Applecare warranties were voided due to secondhand smoke.

Mac users face Trojan threat
A malicious program that poses as a video engine, or codec, necessary to watch pornography could infect unsuspecting users of Apple's Mac OS X operating system, security firms warned on Wednesday.
The program -- called RSPlug by Mac antivirus firm Intego, Puper by McAfee and DNSChanger by others -- has been spreading around Windows computers for some time, but is not considered a significant threat as the victim has to supply the administrator password for the system to be infected. While the Windows version comes as a portable executable (PE) file, the new Mac version comes as a standard disk image (DMG) file. If opened, the file will display a standard install package, according to an analysis of the Trojan by the SANS Institute's Internet Storm Center (ISC).

How-To Turn your iPod in to a Universal Infrared Remote Control
Sometimes, you look around at all these gadgets and in a rare moment of inspiration or madness, you look at them all a little different— connected in a way they are currently not, but perhaps should be, or at least “could” be. There might not be anything “new” but there are countless combinations of disparate technologies, and we think this is a great example of combining a couple of those.
