The Apple Universe Podcast goes to Macworld 2009 in San Francisco, and to start things off, we talk to Rick Kalman, Sr. Product Manager, Desktop Products at FileMaker, Inc. FileMaker at Macworld announced it is shipping the new FileMaker Pro 10, a breakthrough version of the award-winning database software, which features a sleek new interface and intuitive new design. With a fresh new interface, FileMaker Pro 10 delivers the most dramatic design changes in over a decade. The redesigned and customizable Status Toolbar - similar to browser toolbars - puts commonly used FileMaker Pro features, previously only accessible from the main menu, right at users' fingertips for streamlined navigation, better workflow and time-saving shortcuts.

Apple Universe Podcast #151 - Beats by Dr. Dre

(459 Downloads)

Download the Apple Universe Podcast! (14 min)  
In this episode of the Apple Universe Podcast, Daniel reviews 2 great products:

Beats by Dr. Dre produced by Monster:

The good: The Beats by Dr. Dre headphones offer a stylish and comfortable design as well as crisp audio. Sound quality is balanced, with a great thumping bass. Included are a nice carrying case and all cables, and adapters.

The bad: The Monster Beats by Dr. Dre headphones cannot be used without batteries. Glossy black design is very smudge-prone. Right ear-cup rattles occasionally while you walk.

Daniel's rating: 4.5 out of 5

Purchase: Apple | Best Buy | Amazon | Monster

Card Scan Executive for Mac

The US $259.99 package includes the small (3.5" x 6.4" x 1.6") scanner, a CD-ROM with Mac and Windows versions of CardScan's contact management software, and a USB cable. What? No power brick? Nope -- it's bus-powered so you can eliminate one more power plug. The scanner worked fine for me plugged into a USB 2.0 hub.

If you handle a lot of business cards in your daily life, CardScan Executive for Mac is a must-have. It speeds up entry of business card data into your electronic systems and works very welll for a first Mac release.

Daniel's Rating: 5 out of 5

Purchase: CardScan | Amazon
