Multi-touch. iPhone . Multi-touch. iPod Touch . Multi-touch. Newton? An Apple PDA finally? Perhaps. Well at least that’s what Appleinsider thinks . For fans (and blimey, what a cult it is!) of the device that spawned the PDA market and the slew of pretenders subsequently, this may be great news.

If it happens.

The device which Apple is reportedly working on with a small group of engineers, will run an embedded version of Mac OS X , not unlike the iPhone and iPod Touch. Read the original Appleinsider article

Oh btw, check out how the 90s baby, Newton 2000 fares against 2006’s Samsung Q1 UMPC.

Tumpang-lah! The World’s Premier Online Bulk Store

Tumpang

I just discovered Tumpang via MyMacBuzz . Tumpang is a Malay word for pooling - like car-pooling, or pooling of resources. At Tumpang, you will in fact be pooling your resources with other users to get the best deals. It’s really about getting a bulk discount. Tumpang helps you save by letting you buy in bulk. If a mobile phone costs USD 300, 10 units of the same may cost only USD 250. Tumpang facilitates this bulk buy letting you ‘tumpang’ an item with other Tumpang users.

I just joined as both buyer and seller, to complement my store at Lelong.
