I'm going to be pissed if there's no new iPhone.
However, I don't think Apple cares about me.
Well, you have over two months to work yourself up into a full-scale snit.
iOS 5 will be soooo good it will make the iPhone 4 feel like an iPhone 5.

When I just upgraded through iTunes on Mac, after downloading for a second it flashed "Verifying iPhone with Apple".
Has that been there before? Did I miss it in the past?It always does that, it actually signs the OS from Apple's servers. So now 4.3 cannot be installed anymore.

Was the one more thing at the iPod event last October the TV shows?
If so, the one more thing this year could be the Movies.
I don't think there was a "One More Thing..." from what I remember there were three acts:
Act I - New iMac with iSight and Front Row/Photo Booth
Act II - iPod and iTunes, sales, nano's resounding (1 million in 17 days) sales.
Act III - iPod (with video), TV Shows in iTunes, iTunes 6.

I'm on the fence about the whole iPhone Flash debacle. I believe Apple is not adding flash to try and get standards changed. They have a habit of doing this type of thing. In fact, I think they tried it with MMS by replacing it with email. However, consumers thought different, and now we have MMS.
I agree Flash is terribly inefficient, but has been around a long time. That being said, there are those times when being able to use a flash website would be convenient. It's not really hurting me though, so time will tell what they do.

No its not. There will be live text coverage on MR, and their will be a video of the keynote on apple's site within a couple hours after it ends.
Well that makes sense, as it costs lots of money for developers to attend... why should they show it for free live :) Thanks.

I will leave your personally offensive remarks aside, suggesting instead that you get a transvestite, oops, Dell PC, dude. I am sure you can find a better desktop in their highly confusing webshop. As for Gisele Buendchen, she stays on our side, thanks a lot... :rolleyes:
Just calling a spade a spade, Mr Lawyer. You made a comment that was a lie. The iMac is NOT the "most powerful desktop in the world". Not by a long shot.
If you don't want people to say you're full of crap then don't talk crap. Simple as.
Where else would you sit your iMac?
You know what I mean! :p
What do people buy if they want desktop performance? Apple currently offer NOTHING with desktop performance, it's either mobile or workstation.

Yes almost every release in the Beatles era was intended for mono. Stereo releases were made years later and the wide effect was partly due to the fact that these songs were mastered from 2 tracks and because the music was recorded to one track and the vocals to the other, well there was no really other way to get stereo...
Not true.
The stereo mixes were contemporaneous with the mono releases...it's just that no one cared enough to put any thought into them.
Music is mastered from 2 track mixes (unless you're making surround masters, in which case you'd mix from 6 tracks or more). This hasnt changed to this day. Stereo was commerically available starting from the late 1950s, but almost no one had players that could handle it. So the mixes were done in mono, with stereo as an afterthought. For this reason, many of the mono mixes are superior to the stereo, although people now assume that the CD releases are the de facto standard, when in fact it was a conscious decision to release the stereo versions of every album from Help! onward.

Can we get the new ones with the school promotion?
Nope. You can read the PDF on the apple website for details.
seems kinda sly to unload the old nanos on poor students.
You're not suggesting we should feel sorry for someone getting a FREE nano, even if it's the previous model?
While many people are looking for Apple to integrate a radio tuner into the iPod it isn't going to happen.
They already have a radio tuner add-on if you really want one. Personally, the whole point of getting an iPod is so I can avoid radio.

Nope. You we're screwed when you picked Verizon. How's that map treating you? :p
I have no doubt's that this will be resolved in time. In the mean time, I don't have any of the problems that the new IOS 4.3.1 fixes on my Verizon iPhone. ;):apple:

Some of you should consider getting a smug-ectomy - this looks like a proof of concept more than anything else. Depending on exactly where the point of vulnerability is (which is not totally clear, perhaps intentionally) down the road this could have implications for built-in airport cards as well.
A couple years ago a security researcher discovered an Internet Explorer exploit that took advantage of a jpeg vulnerability. For this exploit to work, a user had to drag the image from the browser and onto their desktop, so many people blew it off - I mean, who would be stupid enough to do that? Well, after a bit more time other hackers (please don't bother "correcting" that) figured out how to take advantage of this exploit with some specially crafted script that could leverage the vulnerability without actual user interaction required.
I would agree that, at this moment, it's not a problem most Mac users need to worry about. But blowing it off completely is sophomoric at best.

I was quite bummed out about no core 2 duo announcement. Can anybody tell me which, if any, pc companies are shipping with core 2 duo yet? Is this possibly going to be a silent release, and is it perhaps still happening in August or are we in for another long wait? :confused:

Add: I checked Dell, and their ship date for a Core 2 Duo System is August 12

When did we stop doing sane things in this country?
Wait a second, I was able to easily invest heavily in the future and still fix the budget problems, all while only cutting the military spending by around 25%. I had enough of a surplus, that I could have gone back and cut even less if needed, but would prefer to invest in US infrastructure and manufacturing capacity. Which, coincidentally, would be more important should the military need to rapidly grow than a few fancy trinkets (F22s, helicopters, etc...)

One great thing I realized the other day is that the drop shield power up or whatever its called also restores your health which is awsome.
Yea, they wanted to combine some of the old Equipment items from Halo 3 to make them more useful. Drop Shield is a mix of the old Bubble Shield and the Regen. Active Camo mixes the old Camo and the Radar Jammer. But while it does make you invisible and jam your enemies radar, it also muffles your audio and jams your radar as well. Also, the Armor Lock puts off an EMP like effect, much like the old Power Drain, though you are obviously stuck in one place when using it. Lots of risk-reward involved in them.
I wasn't really sure how I would like the Armor Abilities, and the limited time I got with the Beta back in May didn't really help, since they were all a little broken then. But now, after playing quite a lot of Reach, I'm really enjoying them. It is really nice to always have them to use. The one-time use of the old equipment really did hinder their usage, so I can see why Bungie wanted to change. Sprint is my go-to piece, but I use Drop Shield a lot when playing Firefight.

hi all, I have been awaiting this update and have now just ordered my new macbook. I am really glad they upgraded the RAM to 1GB on the middle model as I would have been paying for that upgrade anyway. I ordered it through my universities higher education store, so it cost me a total of �775.48 for the stock white 2ghz model, plus an "incase neoprene sleeve". I hope these sleeves provide adequate protection, if not I will have to get something else, I plan to take the laptop to uni with me every day so I am sure it will suffer a few bumps (not if i can help it obviously but accidents happen!). I am glad i didnt order one a couple of weeks ago like i almost did - thought i'd hold off for an update!

Great, another store that carries iPad 2 but won't ever have any in stock. LOL.
Unfortunately I think 80% of iPad 2 supply is going to scalpers and resellers, the moment Apple stores get them in stock they sell out and craigslist is then flooded with heavily marked up iPads. It's kind of ridiculous.
On a related note, isn't it a bit weird Apple hasn't announced any sales figures yet? They're usually quick to brag when devices hit a million sales in a short amount of time.
the more distribution points, the less the scalpers and resellers can cover.
The RadioShack in Owatonna MN now is supporting all the people who don't want to drive 50 miles to an Apple Store or Walmart.
As for the weirdness... yes... but again, when they announce a milestone like that... that gives analysts a tracking point to correllate their counts ("we tracked 30 stores in 6 metro areas... if they sold a million and we counted 1400... and now I'm counting 2800 that means they've sold 2 million...."), and those number cause stock fluctuations that are noise to them, and anti-noise ("Apple missed MY number.... They are going bankrupt next week... SELL SELL!") that is generated when people are predicting the health of the LARGEST TECH STOCK IN FRICKIN UNIVERSE. That's a lot of noise that Apple doesn't want to deal with.
If Apple can keep all the analysts less chatty until AAPL is good ready to release numbers when they are required (quarterly), then that's a good thing.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but can't you get over a lot of the quality issues by using a 90 degree bend, so the lens on the back of the phone/ipad is almost just a glass cover, behind which is a mirror, then you have a long unit at 90 degrees to this device which holds various lenses, so for example you could have a 10 or 20mm long lens barrel/system inside there?

Walled garden is what makes it work. I don't want everyone in the world to see me on there. I don't want my information on facebook outside of facebook.
It's better because of the walled garden. Sure it might be better functionality-wise if it was open. But my identity is sort of important to me and if that was compromised that doesn't benefit me at all.
So, sure. Irony. But there's a good reason for the walled garden.
I think the irony has to do with the approval process for Facebook applications (like all of those games people play on Facebook), not access to personal information.
