Since the last installment of OpenApple the week of Oct. 10, Apple has taken the wraps off two new products, both of which Think Secret had previously been tracking.
The first, and arguably less interesting of the two, was the RED iPod nano, a special edition music player sheathed in a bright red anodized aluminum skin that sees a portion of its sales donated to The Global Fund AIDS charity.
The second product appeared earlier this week: Apples long-awaited update to its MacBook Pro line of laptops, which now features Intels Core 2 Duo “Merom” processor.
With the MacBook Pro revision—which was noted as forthcoming in this column in late August and early September—Apple gave its high-end customers what they needed, but not necessarily all that they wanted.
