Mac Questions.

does it do it with motion sensing?

It utilizes Apple's SMS sensor on the machine so it will only work on the macbooks and macbook pros. It can detect motion, keystroke, keypad stroke, or the lid being closed. It also takes a pic with the built in isight and will email it to a specified address. I have been playing with it all day now, it is kind of cool.
 
iChat is standardized meaning it works with AIM and most things based off of jabber. iChat itself is based off jabber.
 
I plan to use Adium, but whats a good IRC client?
I was thinking of using Colloquy 2.x.

I want something easy to use, easy to understand and stuff.




Anything else you can recommend?
Software, hardware, tweaks?

Thanks.
 
When ever you get it play with the track pad options and see how you like it to be set up and that kinda stuff. If you want to spend the extra get the the Apple Care Plan it's well worth it, it gives three years of coverage the basic plan has one.

I use an application called Blue Phone elite for my macbook pro and my nokia phone. I can sync it via blue tooth and answer and make calls from my laptop as well as send SMS via the software.
 
Oh nice.
I have a T-Mobile Dash.

Can I use the bluetooth headset for stuff like Ventrilo and mic chats?


Oh, and whats a good program that easy to use, that makes logos and pictures? So I can make something and upload it for a CSS spray and stuff.
Like, The Logo Creator.

And also, whats a good photo shop program?


Thanks.

Should I buy the AirPort Extreme 802.11n* Enabler for Mac?

I am not using the Apple router.

And if I do need it, will I notice a difference?
I have 6mb DSL.


Shouldn't matter?



Thanks.

You would need an 802.11n router in order to take advantage of 802.11n's range and speed.

But if all your using it for is your internet, then you wont notice a difference over 802.11g unless you have a really poor signal now.

To use like for mic chatting.

Yes it is all built in natively, but I use an application called blue phone elite, which allows me to control my phone from my laptop.
