Arrange Icons on the iPhone/iPod touch Home Screens
Unhappy with the arrangement of your icons? You can move them around as follows: First, hold down on any Home screen icon until all the icons wiggle. Now, drag the icons to their desired locations (drag left or right to get to other screens). Finally, press the physical Home button on your device. (Unlike earlier releases, iPhone Software 2.1 doesn't move just-updated apps to the end of your Home screens, so your icons should be more stationary once you've installed the update.)
Remember that you can replace Apple's default icons in the four persistent spots at the bottom of the screen with your four most-used apps!

New MacBook Pro Gets Tiny Speed Bump
Almost lost among all of Apple's other recent announcements was the tiny speed bump for the 15-inch MacBook Pro. Previously available in three configurations - Intel Core 2 Duo processors running at 2.4 GHz, 2.53 GHz, and 2.8 GHz - the MacBook Pro now replaces the top two options with 2.66 GHz and 2.93 GHz processors. Prices and all other specifications remain the same.
Well, that's it. Nothing more to see here, move along.
