'Macsimum Recommended Reading' for Oct. 28

"Opinion: Apple's new MacBook is a stealth business notebook/At some companies, Mac infiltration is already well under way" -- Computerworld

"Amazon Still Has Previous Generation MacBook Pros for $1644" -- Daring Fireball

"Toys 'R' Us on an iPod mission: Giant US toy retailer makes iPod play for Christmas" -- Macworld UK

"Apple's iPhone helps boost Rogers 3Q earnings: Rogers Communications Inc. said on Tuesday it activated over a quarter of a million iPhones for customers during a three-month stretch this summer, results that helped the company post strong third-quarter numbers." -- CBC News

"Larger Space Planned for NY Store: The Roosevelt Field (NY) retail store is tucked away at one end of the second floor in the huge mall, a location that Apple doesn’t prefer. Even so, the store has been doing well since it opened in July 2002. Now a much larger space has opened up in prime territory on the ground floor in the middle of the mall, where Restoration Hardware was located." -- ifo AppleStore

"An iPod in class? In one, it's not just OK - it's mandatory: A Boise teacher won a $10,000 grant to improve learning through technology. Educators have until Nov. 21 to apply." --

"Apple Launched a Forum Dedicated to iPhone Developers: After reviewing its NDA policies concerning the iPhone program and SDK, Apple made a new step in the right direction by launching a forum dedicated to developers aiming to port or release applications for the iPhone. " -- HardMac

"Best laptops for writers" ["You may have noticed that the list thus far doesn't include any Apple products. That's because I think the company has left some Mac fans in a tough spot: they have to either drop a huge chunk of change on the sublimely elegant but ultimately under-featured (for the price) MacBook Air or schlep around the 4.5-pound MacBook, which despite being lighter than its predecessor is still too heavy for frequent travel. I do like the MacBook, though, and would recommend it to writers whose work rarely takes them beyond the coffee shop down the street."] -- CNET

“Mystical Macworld Musings: With what are likely all of Apple's Fall product announcements out of the way, the stage is set for Macworld. As usual, it's anyone's guess as to what the show's big kicker will be, and Ted Landau has three. A hobby may become a profession, a runt could finally get some big attention, and a much-discussed possibility just might finally become a reality.“ -- MacNewsWorld
