Over on the Microsoft Technet blog, there is a pretty comprehensive overview of what’s new in Entourage 2008.
While my first-hand experiences with Entourage in an Exchange 2003 environment have been less than happy, I grudgingly admit that some of the Exchange 2007 features could turn out to be useful.

A few months ago, I wrote about the lack of a 16gb iPhone to match the (at that time) new iPod Touch. Today, Apple buckled to pressure from my tens of rabid fans and decided to capitulate by announcing the addition of a 16gb model, priced at $499 USD to join the 8gb $399 model.
Of note, however, is the simultaneous introduction of a 32gb version of the iPod Touch ($499), which is accompanied by the smaller 16gb model ($399) and an 8gb version ($299).

Dear AT&T/Apple,
For the love of all that’s holy – please fix this crappy, amateur hour, seemingly hard to screw-up service!
For those of you not in the know, the iPhone doesn’t natively support MMS messages, meaning that if someone sends a photo or sound file to your phone number it doesn’t come in like a normal text message or email.
