Worth waiting for
Life, Graham K. Rogers, Published on 21/12/2016
» Apple announced its US$159 (5,700 baht) AirPods at the same time as the iPhone 7, but the Bluetooth-connected device was not made available to customers until last week. There was much online speculation that a problem was found in the production models, so the release was put back. It would have been wrong to release a device with a known problem for a number of obvious reasons.

Anticipating updates at WWDC; expanding the usefulness of photos
Life, Graham K. Rogers, Published on 01/06/2016
» Apple rumours are sprouting like daisies in the approach to WWDC: just a couple of weeks away. There may be one, or two, or three iPhone sizes, with one or two cameras. There is also sure to be a new screen type (we are told). The next iPhone, which will probably be announced then, should have the next A-series chip: the A10. This is the one that many predict could power a desktop class computer.

Seagate Wireless Plus disk (Part II): Not exactly plug and play
Life, Graham K. Rogers, Published on 13/01/2016
» Apple's iOS devices do not allow users to access data on disks using the Lightning connector. Using Wi-Fi to access content stored on a disk is a solution. I have been trying to work with a Seagate Wireless Plus disk. I was encouraged by a number of positive reviews I had read.

Seagate Wireless --- not quite what I hoped
Life, Graham K. Rogers, Published on 06/01/2016
» We start 2016 with the usual predictions about Apple: no innovation, low share prices (not as low as 2008) and estimates of falling iPhone sales as if that were it. We should have a better idea later this month with the quarterly financial figures. In the meantime, there are predictions that Apple will buy Tesla, with some analysts speculating on which companies Apple should buy. Some never learn.

Yosemite's in town, ya varmint!

» Later this week, local users will be able to start ordering iPhone 6 models, although it is rumoured that initially those in some iStudio outlets will only have True Sim cards. I will wait until I can physically hold the two models before making a decision and then order from the online Apple Store. My iPhone 5s is fine for now.

Countdown to Sept 9 - the known & the unknown
Life, Graham K. Rogers, Published on 03/09/2014
» Last week, Apple finally sent out invitations to the media and confirmed that it will hold an event next Tuesday, Sept 9. There have been so many reports in the last few months about what Apple is about to do, yet not a word came from Apple until that invitation with its enigmatic, one-line message: "Wish we could say more", and the date, "9.9.2014".

What I have learned: Even MS can impress
Database, Graham K. Rogers, Published on 22/12/2010
» If teachers never learn anything new, they do a disservice to their students. Likewise, writers should always search for new ideas; inflexibility will not stimulate readers. My recent look at Microsoft Office 2011 has been a nice surprise - I find myself not only liking it, but happy to recommend it to Mac users. For those wondering about changing from other platforms to Apple's OS X, this would make the move relatively painless. The difference in style sometimes confuses those new to Macs (http://www.microsoft.com/mac).

A farewell column: Pastures new
Database, Graham K. Rogers, Published on 05/01/2011
» In his 2007 introduction to the iPhone, Steve Jobs said it was great to have been involved in not one but three developments that have changed the world. With a little more humility, since I have been in Thailand I have managed to make a few ripples.

A Mini adventure on the Mac
Database, Graham K. Rogers, Published on 11/08/2010
» I have been running the latest Mac Mini in my home and at my office for the past few days and in this time have reminded myself of what a useful computer this is. I resisted the adjective, "little" in that last sentence as that demeans the device. Compact is more to the point. As with the previous versions, its dimensions give a user flexibility with regard to location.
