Road to Expo: iWork '05, Jam Pack 4 arriving: Think Secret — who predicted a monitor -less iMac last week — is now talking about Apple's planned Office-killer: iWork.

Chatter surrounding iWork — then called iWorks, as it was speculated to be the successor to AppleWorks — first emerged almost two years ago. Since then, iWork has become a perennial rumor favorite, as AppleWorks 6 continues to show its age and lack of refinement associated with Apple's applications today. Steve Jobs introduced AppleWorks 6 during Macworld Expo San Francisco in 2000, making the application a dinosaur in software years by today's standards.

Apple iWork '05

Apple iWork '05 04/18/2005 04:42 PM
With built-in designs for documents and presentations, seamless integration with iLife media and an easy to use toolbar, Apple has brought professional design capabilities to the average Mac user with iWork. iWork consists of Pages, Apple’s new word processing application designed to replace AppleWorks, and Keynote 2.0, a flexible application for producing presentations, interactive slideshows, and more. Although Pages wasn’t created to be in the same league as the pro apps like QuarkXpress or Adobe InDesign, it gives everyone the ability to easily create great looking documents. It comes with about 40 design templates that cover everything from invitations to newsletters, brochures, press releases and school or business reports. It is a simple, clean program for the non-professional designer, with import and export capabilities with Microsoft Word, pdf, HTML, RTF and plain text. Documents are created by simply dragging pictures and images onto it, resizing them and placing them by using your mouse to pull or push the corners to the proper perspective. Just one click inserts tables and charts or changes colors and font styles. Easily apply, edit, and create new paragraph, character, and list styles. With Keynote 2, Apple has added the ability to export a presentation in flash or QuickTime formats and improved the compatibility with AppleWorks and PowerPoint. Keynote 2 comes with 10 new themes for presentations, kiosks, portfolios, and storyboards, including the creation of self-playing presentations. Also with this new version, Keynote also has been given the ability to embed a web page and have it update every time the slideshow is run. The site remains fully accessible, and clicking on any of its links will launch the page in Safari. Keynote will drop to the background, and its Dock icon will adopt a green play icon. Clicking this returns you to your presentation. One of the biggest changes to Keynote with this upgrade, is the addition of a Presenter mode, in which a presentation can be previewed and managed. In addition to displaying your presenter notes, it can now add current and next slides and a clock and a timer (showing either how long you have left to speak or how long you have been talking). Each element can be resized and dragged to wherever on the screen suits you best, so if you would rather have a large view of the current slide and a small preview of the next, you can. Of the two iWork applications, Keynote is easier to use, thanks to automatic guides and layouts. The common elements shared by both Pages and Keynote mean the two applications complement each other very well and after using one, the other seems immediately familiar. Also, if you require more templates than those provided by Apple, more can be found at http://www.iworkcommunity.com/. iWork is not the Microsoft Office killer that some pre-release rumors suggested, but priced at $79, it is well worth the cost if you want to create professional newsletters, brochures and office presentations. System requirements: • Macintosh computer with 500MHz or faster PowerPC G3, G4, or G5 (G4 for PowerBook); G4 or G5 recommended • 128MB of RAM (512MB recommended) • 8MB of video memory (32MB recommended) • Mac OS X v10.3.6 or later • QuickTime 6.5 or later • iLife '04 or later recommended • 1GB of available disk space • DVD drive required to install applications (CD version available at www.apple.com/store) Pros: Easy user interface Compatibility with PowerPoint and Word Large catalogue of free, professionally-designed templates Cons: No word counter No grammar checker If your company has a product you would like Spymac to review, please send an email to news@spymac.com.

Windows Update v6 Released as Microsoft
Update 06/06/2005 12:13 AM
Thanks eXtermia for the heads up on this news, found at DriverHeaven

They are reporting that Microsoft have publically released Windows Update v6, now dubbed Microsoft Update. Users on Windows 2000, 2003 Server and XP have access to the web site after downloading an ActiveX update. The new update site supports both Windows and Office 2003 updates in one central location making it easier for customers to get a hold of the latest patches and updates available to Microsoft software.

Once at the website, you'll have to agree to download some new software which may take a couple of minutes, but once done you'll see the new version of the Windows Update website - although there don't seem to be any new updates on there at the moment. Windows XP users will have to have at least Service Pack 1 to use the site.

JobCapture 5 adds project-level

CaptureWorks has announced the release of JobCapture 5, the latest update to the company's software that tracks work activity, including time spent with specific applications, on each user's computer and generates reports. The upgrade to version 5 adds the ability to track work at the project level, the option to add new applications to the tracking list without the need for a plug-in, seamless integration with legacy systems through CaptureConnect SDK, which allows third party developers to create external connections with CaptureWorks' software, and more. Pricing is US$199 per tracked computer, which includes the Manager application that consolidates all the information gathered over the network. The client and server software requires Mac OS X v10.2.4 or higher, with negligible hard disk space and RAM demands on the client side and 128MB RAM and 3MB per user per month required on the server side.

iBiz Virtual Keyboard Returns

iBiz Virtual Keyboard Returns 08/30/2004 06:26 AM

LIAM "THE INTERN" MCNULTY -- If you have been keeping up with the PDA/mobile market, you've probably seen this before. I first remember hearing about this technology a couple years ago - a virtual keyboard is projected onto a flat surface and an infrared sensor will detect the interruption in the laser beam. This would be interpreted as a keystroke. Sounds interesting, right?

Well, unfortunately, it only ever sounded interesting. A company called "iBiz" claimed to be releasing a product like this earlier this year, but that was the last I'd ever heard of it. I've never seen this product actually on a shelf (which isn't a good sign), and information about its availability is lacking.

Adding to the mystery is the Japanese firm "Tanomi," who last week began accepting orders for the same product. I'm more convinced that this time it's true, likely because of the demonstration video posted at Impress Watch and the ~$270 price tag.

This makes more sense than just going after file sharing, but it still makes you wonder. There is this huge terrorist threat thing going on right now, and you would think that it might make more sense for the FBI to protect us from being blown up than to worry about people sharing music files that they can probably get on file sharing networks anyway.

Cellphone Warez Has Hidden SMS Dialer

Cellphone Warez Has Hidden SMS Dialer 08/09/2004 09:46 AM

A cracked version of the popular "Mosquito v2.0" game for Symbian phones has turned out to include a special trojan payload: a dialer that sends a text message to the UK number 87140 with a charge of £1.50 (about $2.75) a pop. So yeah, that sucks, but you shouldn't be downloading phone warez, either.

Fortunately, if you're one of the unlucky ones who has been stung by the malware, removing it appears to be as simple as deleting the offending file. And while this is notable, and a little bit scary, maybe it should be a sign to mobile OS developers to start locking down the dialing functions of their phones a little more securely?

Covert DoJ investigations into online swapping of copyrighted materials have identified over 100 people in the USA and other countries involved in the distribution of music, movies, and software valued at over $50 million. The initiative is called Operation Fastlink, and targeted warez groups like Fairlight, Kalisto, Echelon, Class and Project X. Excerpt from DoJ press release:

Attorney General John Ashcroft announced today the most far-reaching and aggressive enforcement action ever undertaken against organizations involved in illegal intellectual property piracy over the Internet. Beginning yesterday morning, law enforcement from 10 countries and the United States conducted over 120 searches worldwide to dismantle some of the most well-known and prolific online piracy organizations.

"Intellectual property theft is a global problem that hurts economies around the world. To be effective, we must respond globally," Attorney General Ashcroft said. "In the past 24 hours, working closely with our foreign law enforcement counterparts, we have moved aggressively to strike at the very core of the international online piracy world."

NYT: IRC is like the cantina scene from
Star Wars, but with porn and warez (oh
my) 05/06/2004 03:07 AM
The NYT has run a goofy Red-scare piece on Internet Relay Chat, with hysterical, alarmist bushwah like "It is still possible - though sometimes a bit difficult - to find mature technical discussions among the tens of thousands of I.R.C. chat rooms" -- I mean, how "difficult" is it to type "/join #unix"?

When I.R.C. started in the 1980's, it was best known as a way for serious computer professionals worldwide to communicate in real time. It is still possible - though sometimes a bit difficult - to find mature technical discussions among the tens of thousands of I.R.C. chat rooms, known as channels, operating at any one time. There are also respectable I.R.C. systems and channels - some operated by universities or Internet service providers - for gamers seeking opponents or those who want to talk about sports or hobbies.

Still, I.R.C. perhaps most closely resembles the cantina scene in "Star Wars'': a louche hangout of digital smugglers, pirates, curiosity seekers and the people who love them (or hunt them). There seem to be I.R.C. channels dedicated to every sexual fetish, and I.R.C. users speculate that terrorists also use the networks to communicate in relative obscurity. Yet I.R.C. has its advocates, who point to its legitimate uses.
