My biggest problem with accumulating hours of video content on my mac is the inability to watch those shows on the TV.
The obvious solution is the AppleTV but it has its own set of imperfections – everything has to be played via iTunes, which is problematic because it means having to encode hours of video content to the right format just so iTunes can manage it. Also, the newer AppleTV isn’t available in Singapore yet.
So I’m stuck watching videos on my 15-inch laptop screen which isn’t the most ideal way to consume media especially when I have a 50-inch TV sitting in my living room.
Enter McTiVia. This device’s main selling point is the ability to wirelessly bring everything on your Mac to your TV. (That’s what it says on the box).

Apple released a PR note with a Q&A in response to the controversy over the collection and storing of location data by your iOS devices which can be easily retrieved by software. We highlighted a few key points.
iPad 2 is officially being sold at the Apple Singapore Online Store right now with 1-2 weeks waiting time.
Singapore will finally get the iPad 2 this Friday 29 April. Read on about the pricing, what to do before Friday and where to buy.
It is mid Spring and many are still waiting for the elusive white iPhone 4. It seems to be coming out soon and why that is important.
Steve Jobs supposedly replied a fan’s email about controversy over iPhone location tracking in his typical short reply with just 14 words.
Our hunch is off. In last night’s Second-Quarter Earnings call, Apple COO Tim Cook stated that another 13 countries will get iPad 2 next week – so next week it is!
Demand on iPad 2 has been staggering. We’re still amazed that we are still heavily backlogged, not only at the end of the quarter but also up to date. However, I can tell you that I’m extremely pleased with the progress of the manufacturing ramp and we were so confident that we rolled out 25 additional countries at the end of last month, and we are shipping to an additional 13 countries next week, and we’re planning to add even more countries through the quarter. So I’m very confident that we can produce a very large number of iPads for the quarter. Whether that will be enough to meet demand, I don’t know. Demand has been staggering and I’m not going to predict when supply and demand will come into balance. I can only be confident on supply side.
And the iPad 2 pricing might have been leaked …
16GB – $628 + $200(3G)
32GB – $728 + $200(3G)
64GB – $828 + $200(3G)
Two more weeks before April ends and yet no news of iPad 2 here in Singapore. But we think it might be soon, very soon.
