With the huge success of the Apple iPod, iPad and iPhone, Apple is continuing to advance with there touch screen technology with the touch screen iMac. Now of course because this is Apple, it’s not going to be official until Steve Jobs has a keynote presentation to announce it.

Now this obviously is not 100% official just speculation until Apple announces it, but I am guessing this is will be coming out in the near future. Who knows? Maybe it will be annoucned tomorrow at Apples Special Event along with the new generation of the iPod.

The new chips name, “Vejle”, which had been assumed to be the oft-rumoured Valhalla, is going to powering the new Xbox 360 S. After the break is a picture of the evolution of the CPU and GPU of the Xbox 360.
Finally we get to see what was under that helmet, in the latest commercial for Samsung’s new phone the Galaxy S. Well, it may not actually be Master chief, but it sure does bare a great resemblance to him, as he hops into a spacecraft to fend of a giant crab type creature. Though, it can’t be Master Chief as he would never run away from danger.
I figured it was only a matter of time before something along the lines of a price change occurred for such a lovely service like Xbox Live, so as of November 1st all retail and online sources of your subscription will increase in price.
