iPhone 4 Bumper

Same as most people who were fortune enough to get their hands on a iPhone 4 on release day, I ordered a bumper case too. Now grated, this is essentially £25 for a bit of rubber that surrounds the iPhone, but it really works.

The bumper itself is rubber on the front and back, with hard plastic in the middle. When fitted, it lifts the iPhone about a millimeter from the desk, stopping it from getting scratched. It also gives additional protection on the corners and sides.

Once fitted, it looks like it belongs, each cutout is perfect for the mics, speakers, buttons and dock. I have however noticed that unless your using an official Apple cable, it won’t fit in the slot. I’m picking up a dock connecter at the weekend, so will let you know if it fits or not.

I say again….there are £25 for a bit of rubber, but as I’ve spent £600 on a phone, £25 is nothing to keep it protected.

The MacBook Pro Unboxing.

Gotta love the apple packaging

What’s underneath the MacBook Pro

The stylishly designed document holder

The multi ended power supple cable (which if you didn’t know is held onto the Mac with a magnet, so no fear of breaking off the end of the power adapter if you were to trip over the cable, Clever I know !)

Well, in true geek style, I thought I’d take shots of the unboxing of the MacBook Pro.

btw, forgot to mention in my previous blog “Apple Day, Hurray !” , that we went to the Apple store, because the one I had ordered, was due to turn up on Wednesday, and I’m just far to impatient, got home, only to find it had been delivered and left with the neighbour ! I know, the irony ! However it did mean that both myself and C could start the Apple learning curve together.

Below is the shiny new one from the Apple Store

and here are the 2

So, on with the unboxing

Out of the box

The huge trackpad

The left hand side connectors

The SuperMutli Drive Slot

Such a nice Gloss Screen

The first switch on !

The welcome message

The backlit keyboard

Finally the lit up Apple logo on the back

Below is the now slightly over crowded computer room

However, C may have lost her MacBook to the cat, as he seems to think it’s his new bed, lol
