  • Derrick Story: "At first glance, the recently announced Olympus E-P1 digital camera looks like a classic rangefinder from the film era. But in fact, the camera has much in common with a modern digital SLR, including interchangeable lenses, a 12.3-megapixel image sensor, and even support for Raw and 720p video recording. As a bonus, it comes neatly packaged in a body closer to the size of a compact point-and-shoot."

    I am *very* pleased with my recent point-and-shoot purchase, but this indeed looks like the type of camera to fill the role between point-and-shoot and full-blown SLR.

  • Mostly with regard to paper, with a business/office life focus.

  • I cannot express how badly my technolust has been inflamed by this product.

    (Yes, even with the six grand price tag. Though I think I'd prefer a 500 GB 7200rpm hard drive over the 256 GB solid state drive.)

    Only ten will be produced.

  • They're not talking about fun games. Rather, "how office politics sabotage the workplace".

    I have seen many examples of some of the games mentioned here, both in a Fortune 100 company and in a medium-sized business.

  • This is a handy app which allows you to specify what you want your Mac to do when you attach photo-capable devices. For instance, you may want iPhoto to open when you connect your iPhone or point-and-shoot digital camera, but Aperture or Lightroom to launch when you attach your dSLR. Or maybe you don’t want iPhoto to launch when you connect your iPhone. You just tell Cameras what you want to happen.
