My cat discovers yet another of life’s simple pleasures: The sensation of $US500 warming one’s butt.
Apple’s offering a $US30 discount to MobileMe users on both OS X Leopard and Time Capsule. This makes us think that a 2TB Time Capsule is coming soon. Here’s why.
Apple’s updated its Wi-Fi router and backup drive combo, Time Capsule, with a guest mode and simultaneous dual-band wireless. I was pretty surprised at how wireless performance has increased, too.
The latest 7.4.1 update for Time Capsule and Airport Extreme adds Back to My Mac drive sharing, which lets you grab files off of attached USB drives over the internet.
And so the cycle continues: the Apple store goes down, people ask us why, and we speculate. So! Assuming this isn’t just a cruel red herring, here are the most likely possibilities.
If Apple’s Time Capsule excites you, you will be happy to learn that the 1TB model is now available for $US387 down from $US500. This may signal the introduction of new models soon.
AU: Doesn’t appear to have been any local price drop yet…
We love HP’s new Time Machine-compatible MediaSmart Home Server. 9to5Mac reports that Apple is working on something similar, but it’ll be tied into MobileMe and will share music, movies and more over the internet.
