Sonos adds a portable music player with room filling sound {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Nov 15th 2009 1:19PM I think you may have glossed over a few of the negatives in your review, or at least things that are negatives in my use of the S5. While I'll be the first to admit that I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE S5, there are a few things that work in a less-than-ideal fashion:
1) Doesn't played DRM'd songs purchased from iTunes. I've upgraded some of the tracks to iTunes Plus, which solves the problem, but it should be acknowledged somewhere that it doesn't play the DRM tracks.
2) Host computer needs to be connected, at all times, to the router via ethernet. Not really a problem if you have an iMac or non-mobile computer that lives near your router, but in this age of wireless, shouldn't it over wifi?
3) When the computer isn't present, it should be able to access Sirius or Pandora over the net without the computer. It's plugged into the router, so it's got a net connection - why need the Mac?
Even more ideally, and this may in fact be possible, it would be optimum to hook up an external hard drive to my Airport Extreme and not need my MacBook Pro to be present (after initial setup) to hear music.
Just my thoughts.

Mac 101: Geodata copying in iPhoto {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
May 17th 2009 9:53AM Does anybody know if iPhoto adds the location data to the original photos themselves, or if it just creates a database with the location information inside iPhoto?

Win a CardScan Executive for Mac {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Oct 23rd 2008 1:29PM I couldn't begin to count how many business cards I have, but figure if you stacked them all up, the Tower o' Business Cards would be close to two feet tall. Thus, a few thousand cards, give or take.
