One of modern day invention leaders has passed away.  This is shocking news just one day after the release of new iPhone 4s.  Steve’s offering to the world have been extraordinary.  Rest in Peace Steve.

You have not only evolved Apple but you have evolved the world, the technology space, the communication space, and the human space.  Your visions have changed the way we go about our day.

Thanks Steve

A 2 year contract with Verizon (20 bucks a month) + 600 dollars will buy you a Motorola Xoom.  Probably the first real competitor to the iPad.  Apple’s 3g iPad runs at 629 with no contract requirement. Data plans at 30 bucks a month.  New pricing model may be in store as the iPad 2 annoucement will come in March.

Javelle Mcgee from Washington Wizards marketed PeakShoe at the slam dunk contest at the NBA All Star weekend in Los Angles.   Looks like the site has been slammed with traffic.

In the mist of the iPad 2 just around the corner.  Bestbuy site earlier today showed dummy sku’s for iPads.  The sku’s are no longer appearing on the site.  Excitement of a new iPad. Boy its hard to keep up with Apple and its new refreshes yearly. I would be ok if they didn’t release a new one until August or early 4Q. (Just bought mine in Nov eek!)
