Farewell clickwheel! Also unless capacity bumps occur, largest iPod is 64GB. Is this a way to force users into using iTunes Match? --- USPTO denies trademark on Multitouch http://www.tipb.com/2011/09/27/apples-request-trademark-multitouch-denied/ The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has formally denied Apple’s application for a trademark on multi-touch. The USPTO denied Apple’s original request but Apple decided to appeal the decision. The decision was upheld and Apple was denied again. They originally applied for the trademark in January of 2007. Multi-touch was deemed too generic a term to be trademarked. --- BBC iPlayer app for iPad released http://itunes.apple.com/au/app/bbc-iplayer-global/id449130604?mt=8 Some free stuff, subscription is $9.49 per month, giving access to entire BBC library of shows. --- Fortune releases ‘All About Steve’ eBook in Kindle format http://www.razorianfly.com/2011/09/28/fortune-debuts-all-about-steve-ebook/ “Steve Jobs’ legacy is clear: The most innovative business leader of our time, the man FORTUNE named CEO of the Decade in 2009. Now from the pages of FORTUNE comes an anthology of 17 classic stories spanning the years 1983 to 2011 about the cultural icon who revolutionized computing, telephones, movies, music, retailing, and product design.” --- Speaking of Kindles..

Episode 70 - Velociraptors in Turtlenecks | Pete and Chris are absent this week. Their mums said they couldn’t podcast last night because their uniform was mixed in with the red clothes in the wash, pfft. We roped in Chris (aka Lo-Fi Chris) and Matt (aka, Matt Lesh) who ventured into the MacTalk cave and carefully crafted a beautiful podcast with Al and I. We devote a large chunk to the iTunes Store and how we spend far too much money on it. There’s also some Optus bagging and general iPhone 3rd Gen feature guessing. Pete makes a cameo via the voicemail, so you all get your weekly dose of Lil’ P. | 15 4 09 | Free | View In iTunes |

Episode 69 - Stiff Disks & Transvestites | Episode 69, appropriately named “Stiff Disks & Transvestites”. You’ll need to listen to the winners of our Crumpler bag competition in order to understand why I called this episode that. In this 69th episode, we discuss how popular Skype is, the prospect of a new iPhone coming mid-year, plenty of Optus bagging, contemplation on Microsoft’s latest propaganda, the retelling of an internal struggle on the topic of Macheist, Chris gives us the latest on his Mac Mini HTPC project, we spit out a bunch of apps we think you should check out and do the same with two podcasts we think you will like if you like ours. We wrap it up with a couple of voicemail messages from our sexy listeners, reminiscing over their first Mac. | 7 4 09 | Free | View In iTunes |

Episode 68 - Alderney, Algonquin, Bohan, Broker & Dukes | This week brings discussion on Skype for the iPhone, hate for Optus, our 2c on a new iPhone, love for Dexter, reasons to go to WWDC '09, Russian Mac netbook photoshops, cute girls that buy s**t laptops because Microsoft tell them, bunch of stuff on HTPC and the usual forum and apps. We also have a rad competition with Crumper who will give you stuff for telling us what you loved about your first Mac! | 1 4 09 | Free | View In iTunes |

Episode 67 - One Angry Agius and 200 Solemn Faces | Episode 67 is probably our worst episode ever. No really, it is. Don’t listen to it. Don’t sully your good reputation with this drivel. Someone important might look at your iPod, see this in your library and never talk to you again. Do you want that to happen? No, no you don’t. Go back and listen to your favourite episode. If you still want to irreversibly damage your health by listening to episode 67, you can expect some half arsed discussion on some iPhone rumours, some 17″ iMac speculation, Pete’s impressions on iPhone OS 3.0, a slight diversion into daytime chat shows, some final episode of BSG discussion, an explanation as to what happened with MacTalk’s website and the usual pick of apps we’ve enjoyed this week. | 25 3 09 | Free | View In iTunes |

144 |
Episode 66 - Forstall, I Love You | It's a total iPhone OS 3.0 smorgasbord on this week's podcast. We discuss all the new things coming to our iPhones as part of 3.0 for about half the podcast. The other half consists of pondering Optus and their 3G data, pimping RAM City and their awesome service, lusting after the new iPod Shuffle and the usual forum threads, iPhone apps and some voicemail. | 18 3 09 | Free | View In iTunes |

Episode 65 - Skank is the New Black | Episode 65 brings the ruckus to your hood via the intertubes. We give you our 2c on the new Mac desktop upgrades (Mac Pro. Need.), talk about the iPhone, some sort of iPod ice-cream, A large portion devoted to Christopher Menz, an Apple netbook would make me want one, bunch of stuff from the forums and some other stuff I can't be stuffed typing up right now as it is dinner time and I'm hungry. Full notes on the forum as usual. | 11 3 09 | Free | View In iTunes |
|
146 |
Episode 64 - Not to be Taken Orally | We talked for a while about the rumours that were floating around about new Mac hardware upgrades. A couple of hours after we recorded, the Apple store down and new stuff was released. We should really record these on a Wednesday night. Either way, there's still lots of non-rumour related stuff, like ripping on MobileMe and Optus, discussing what annoys us most about the iPhone, talking about the AppleTV and listening to some voicemail messages listeners have left us. | 3 3 09 | Free | View In iTunes |

Episode 61 - White Bentley | Besides tracking the activity of a white Bentley containing a deceased celebrity speeding through LA via the Internet, we talked about a 9 year old iPhone developer, iPhoto's crappy Flickr exporting, AppleTV moaning, how much time we spend on the intarwebs, a very long discussion about channel 9 and TV show piracy, something about sock puppets, a couple of iPhone apps and a reminder to buy food from Coles on Friday to support Victorian bushfire victims.

Customer Reviews
Entertaining & informative with local flavour
The MacTalk podcast is a wonderfully irreverent and distinctly Aussie weekly rundown of what's happening in the Apple universe. It doesn't take itself too seriously and the podcasters aren't afraid to follow tangents, which makes the whole thing feel like a genuine chat among mates. If you want your Apple news without the American twang and with a laugh, this is the podcast for you.
Amateur hour!
A lot of incorrect information, sounds just bunch of Kids in their basement talking about articles they have misread.
Try hards
Has the potential to be great but I don't think they have taken the time to listen to themselves as they would realize that their are a few try hard knobs that swear for no reason
