Briefly: Safari plugins; Cableguys ship

In brief: Apple is pointing Intel Mac Safari users to plugin vendor websites, instructing them to download Universal Binary versions of the plugins if they exist, or alternatively to run Safari with Rosetta.... Apple has also produced detailed instructions on how to force Universal applications to run with Rosetta, which can be desirable to retain compatibility with plugins that have themselves not yet been released as Universal Binaries.... Speck Products today began shipping CableGuys for iPod ($20, shown at right), its audio/video cables designed with a "hip, friendly look...." Dr. Bott today announced that the Marware Stand For iPod nano is exclusively available through its authorized resellers.... The European Commission has said it is probing Apple due to the pricing of music sold by the iTunes Music Store, not the interoperability with other online music software.
