Apple Earphones with Remote and Mic

Did you know?:

That your Apple Earphones with Remote and Mic not only works with your iPods (recent ones that is…) it also works on your Mac!

With the included headphone auxiliary input on your MacBook/Pro/Air, simply plug in your Apple Earphones with Remote and Mic, and it should recognize the headphones.

The buttons work, and it’s fully functional!!!

The mic works, great sound too!

If figured these out when I couldn’t find my headphones so I plugged in the headphones that came with my 32GB iPod Touch and tried the buttons… surprisingly, they worked! But with no one talking about it, I figured I’d blog about it.

Well, there you go! Try ‘em today!

NEW MacBooks, iPhone, and iPod Touch 2nd Gen

overview-gallery1-20090608

Today, Apple has, in its hay day, released, yet another, update…

Today, it has revolutionized yet again, its MacBooks. In the process altogether, the Apple has completely wiped out the MacBooks and replaced them with the MacBook Pro line: The 13-inch, the 15.4-inch and the 17-inch. Standardizing its Firewire-800, the SD Card Slot (sacrificing the slot-drive-thing) and also standardizing the “new” batteries on all the macs ones that go up to 8-hours a charge.

iPhone 3GS

The “NEW” iPhone, dubbed, the “iPhone 3G S,” is pretty much the same, only with new features such as: Video Recording; complete with a video editor and capture (all on your iPhone,) a voice-control (which we’ve seen on some apps but not on the native apps themselves), CUT, COPY, AND PASTE! Tethering – a process where you use your iPhone as a modem to connect to the 3G internet using your phone on your MacBook, the keyboard – where you now are able to go to landscape on Notes, Calendar, Safari, Phonebook and Messages! MMS (Multi-Media Messages) – Messages that contain pictures, audio and files, Maps, complete with a compass, and last but not the least, Search, sort of the Spotlight for your iPhone and iPod Touch.

As a new Mac user, I am, therefore irritated with these updates coming in so soon!!! I just bought my 15.4-inch MacBook Pro, 2.66 GHz, 4 GB RAM, 320GB HD; exactly ONE MONTH AGO, today! I WANT THE NEW MACBOOK PROS!!! and the worst thing is that I paid more money to have this rigged up to speed with what I wanted only to find out that the new ones will be $300 less than what I paid for. UGH! Many of the Mac users have been used to this feeling and I for one, have not yet been.

Bluetooth

I do have an interesting discovery. While visiting the Apple website in hopes of new updates for my MacBook Pro and my two iPod Touches, I stumbled upon the very word that I have been hoping for was on the iPod Touch… BLUETOOTH. Yes. You heard me. Bluetooth! As it turns out, the NEW iPod Touches already have them… Apple just hasn’t written the code to be able to use it yet. I’m glad I didn’t buy that Apple Headphone with mic and remote! HA!

To wrap things up, Apple, as we all know, is, and always will be, a guessing game. No one knows when things come out, how it will change us all and how agonizingly painful it is to see the prices. Well, that’s it folks! Tune in for more info on more Electronics and entertainments, only from, the one and only, youareageek!
