Bluetooth Series 60 Python

Interesting twist — you can get a remote Bluetooth console to your Series 60 Python interpreter. Remote development!

Must buy one.

Case-sensitive HFS+

Saw this on Slashdot:

…as of Mac OS X 10.3.x, Apple now has "Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive)": a fully case-sensitive, fully supported case-sensitive HFS+ filesystem. It's not exposed in the GUI of Disk Utility on Mac OS X client (as Journaling wasn't on Mac OS X 10.2.x client), but it can be enabled via the command line:

sudo diskutil eraseVolume Case-sensitiveHFS+ DiskName /Volumes/SomeDisk

man diskutil for more info. This is exposed in the GUI of Disk Utility on Mac OS X Server 10.3.x. If you would like your primary volume to be case sensitive, you can use/borrow a Mac OS X Server CD to boot your machine, format your primary volume as Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive), and then install Mac OS X (or copy back all of your data with a utility such as asr or Carbon Copy Cloner).

Very cool.
