Here we document the story of Apple's take on the ocarina- the iCarina. It started with the regular iCarina, released in 2007, 2 months after Steve Jobs unveiled it at MacWorld Expo to worldwide excitement. Over 1.6 million units shifted in the first 3 months after release. This is the version 2 of the iCarina, after the earliest models suffered from overheating after long periods of play....  Now a teaser trailer has been released....what are they gonna do next?  And now there are rumours that Microsoft is trying to cash in...this could be bad! Check back soon for product updates... |

iCarina all the time. Even when I am on the buss, my iCarina is never far away. I can even keep time, dates, play nearly every piece of music on it and it can even make me coffee. Buy a iCarina today. |

Question Ma'am: Is there any truth to the rumors going around that you're going to release a new iCarina with "Double" capacity? (Rumor started by me. :P ) |

Apple have a strict policy to never answer any questions or address rumours in the runup to product launches and the annual MacWorld expo
You'll just have to wait and see

How bout the rumor that Bill Gates is so jealous he's coming up with his own version of the iCarina? I have an inside source telling me they're planning to call it the Microcarina, and they're planning to make it compatible with all programs in Microsoft Office 2007. Any comment? |

My spies on the iNside tell me microsoft have something up their sleeves......let me see.... Yep. The Zunearina! Bill Gates is hoping that it'll be a huge hit, even though they're unsold failed models by another company, and Microsoft simply bought them and put the Zunearina logo on! Not a patch on iCarinas!!!!

No thanks
>.< I tried an apple twice in my life, first time I went completely crazy over the idiotic mouse. I have a beautiful laser mouse with 15 buttons you can all set to do different things, so to go from that to the one button? It drove me crazy! Plus I kep pressing it accidentally, and not clicking it when I wanted to. The other time I was just really confused with where everything was. I grew up with windows, now how to use everything, and for me it makes a whole lot of sense. Unlike apple. So windows for me! And microsoft ocarinas sound great! :P |

I used to hate Macs! Then my mate gave me his laptop when he got a newer model and I never looked back!
Now when I use windows in college it drives me up the wall! hehe! After being used to the OSX desktop, Windows looks like a child with a crayon drew it....OSX jst feels more 'organic'...if that makes sense Everyone in my class brings their macbooks into class with them instead Though I will admit- Mac mice are rubbish! I hate them so much!! Yes they look pretty...but that's it :P Try to use one and withing 2 minutes you want to smash it on the far wall of the room :P Though they do make darn *fine* iCarinas!

The part about the ocarina is true. And I've heard some pretty good things, I just don't feel like completely relearning how to use a computer. Windows just makes sense to me. If ever the difference becomes so big it's worth the changeover I wouldn't mind then
I already have an iPod anyway, and they're not too bad. Though itunes still drives me crazy sometimes...
