Apple Made Some Stuff...
Apple have made the world's thinnest laptop, the MacBook Air. They've also released a new network backup device.
Trusted Reviews have slated the MacBook Air for having no optical drive, only one usb socket, no firewire port, a sealed battery, a sealed hard drive, and more importantly, no ethernet (network) port, leaving the laptop to rely on a wireless network connection.
Update: Further design issues: USB devices don't fit.

Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps is back. Episode 1 is now on BBC iPlayer (it was broadcast live!). Episode 2 can be watched online on the BBC Three Website (before it's on TV), but don't go there unless you've seen episode one, because they spoil the 1st episode which is nice.

Transfer Jet is Sony's new technology which allows you to transfer files rapidly just by placing devices in close proximity to one another. It apparently dispenses with passwords until the security protocols are hacked and posted online?) and the need to search for wireless networks.
Transfer speeds are theoretically possible up to 560 MBPS (USB = 480) and it can be built in to the computer or added as a USB peripheral (thereby knocking down speeds to 480 maximum one assumes).
Seems to me that all of this fuss about how we move information is diverting attention away from the fact that we do seem to move rather a lot of it.
