For some time yesterday, ClubMac had an image of a 2TB Time Capsule Box posted within its product detail section. The image is no longer on the site which usually is a hint of confirmation. It is no surprise Apple would release larger iterations of the Time Capsule, which combine a wireless router with a hard drive for backup or storage. We suspect they put this up by accident as it was showing under the 500GB Time Capsule details and most of these images are from the manufacturer and could have simply used the same file name for the image. Other than this, there is no more information, but we can assume the release would be just around the corner.
We posted a disassembly pic of the new Mac Mini the other day and today iFixit takes it apart and gives you step-by-step instructions so you can do the same. They are also offering an upgarde kit for $250 which gives you 1TB of storage by installing two 2.5, 500GB drives and removing the optical drive. See their site for all the details and be sure to checkout the upgrade kit should you need such an upgrade yourself.
Google has release a Mobile Sync program which allows you to backup and sync calenders and your address book. The application is available for iPhone, Blackberry, Windows Mobile and Symbian platforms. See the video for details and the features below.
If Google gives us a "Back to My Mac" solution and some decent online storage, then why pay for MobileMe? This could be a great thing, or maybe Google already has too much of our info. What do you think?

Palm announces their new device called "Pre" at CES today. The new Pre runs their new web OS and has
GPS, Blutooth, 8GB storage, and a "fast processor; Stereo A2DP support; TI’s latest OMAP CPU. The first one with this CPU; 3.1-inch display, 320 x 480 — touchscreen, with multitouch; you can replace the battery , 3 mp camera with led flash; MicroUSB connection, USB 2.0 jack; 3.5mm headphone jack , and a Portrait slide out keyboard.
The new Secure Digital Extended Copy is being updated and will now be capable of two terabytes of storage and a transfer speed of 300MB/sec. At this rate we will probably see memory cards replace Blu-ray discs and optical media in the future, as the transfer speed alone is 100 times faster. Think of the space savings you would have with such a card. Your stack of movies and video games will now fit in the same space as one or two of your current games.
