perhaps the new ultra-portable will not need a power cord.

I'm getting the full mashing, all 666MB. Hopefully it will stay connected to o2 better as there are some parts of the UK that don't seem to exist, as far as my iPhone thinks. :)

What about something made in Germany? ;)
Not sure people would jump the gun on an Audi R8 had it been made in Asia! :D
I would. Germany is pretty much set on protecting it's industrial base.

So... will that trick of making a 8GB 1G nano work with these....
remember... open up a nano and u'll see a free slot. Cause, I could go for a 12GB Green..... 16GB black would be ok... but green... color of envy... color of desire... color of money....
12GB Green would be highly desired!

Are you kidding? Netflix destroyed it with streaming. Disney and Sony aren't even advertising for it anymore. The Blu Ray players are being sold dirt cheap at clearance sales because it's a dying/dead format. I haven't heard a word about it on TV ads to further seal the deal.
And I never liked it anyway, the 25 GB disc wasn't filled all the way because of the stupidly lossy compression, and it was expensive. We unplugged our Blu Ray player and replaced it with a TiVo box with Netflix streaming, which happens to be a lot cheaper than Blu Ray and much easier.
And Apple never used it :)
I've noticed many blu ray disks now come with digital copies. I prefer that. One even had a survey asking how important the digital copy was. So perhaps this will be a nice combination for a while.
I ended up getting a PS3 for the blu ray player. For a while it got most usage as a netflix player. Now the appleTV handles that. So occasionally it gets used now for blu ray. I still do not own any games for it. Someday when I have time for it I'll get a game or two. I think if you are getting a blu ray player, PS3 is the way to go though as you can use it for more than just the blu ray.

as u say, wireless drives that are running a whole OS arent too useful yet (based on current tech). but if they're storing data that only needs to be retrieved every so often, itd be well worth it.
For network storage applications it might be useful, but I think you'd really want a hard-drive and a optical drive you could plug-in even if it's a separate part.
Ideally, something like a tablet PC (iPad) that would use NAND-flash for low voltage OS applications and a hard-drive for more robust applications. The optical drive isn't as necessary for loading data (such as ripping DVDs, music, etc.)
The Tablet PC is a nice idea, but until they're small and light they will remain a niche product. I think something akin to Sony's e-book reader, but with some tablet capabilities that can be seamlessly linked into a larger system would make a real change in the market.
The machines are still used as laptop replacements, and frankly they have a different application.

That would be a gigantic step backwards. Only being able to run Applications deemed worthy by Apple? It maybe fine for your very average PC user who writes email, iWorks, and browses internet - but anyone else - crippling.
I suppose they could have two flavours of the OS - the locked down version called "Th iOS desktop Disney Edition"! :)
... as a developer, I'd like to have an App Store I could put apps in and have Apple take care of the shipping/marketing/etc., just cut me a check once a month. They could be Mac apps rather than iPad apps. You could also run the iPad or iPhone apps using a variation on the iPhone Simulator that comes with the SDK.
Now, I do think there is a problem with the App Store as it currently exists: there is not enough organization, so that it's difficult to find the app you really want. But that's a separate issue, and I'm sure it will get fixed over time.

I am sure some people are going to be pissed at this, but OWNED.
Owned? Aside from some random dislike of the "term", I have to ask where was anyone owned? If you're saying the wife was owned, she wasn't. Wife said no, probably due to the issue of money and not the device itself.
I worry about youth today.
It is a very cute story and shows companies still have a sense of humor sometimes.

I hope this is true!!!
How is Sony's track record with sensors though?
Let's go Fall! (Not even WWDC ;))
They make all of Nikons sensors, even the high end D3S and D3X dSLRs ones. They also made (or make?) Canon point and shoot sensors; at least as of a few years ago. Sony was one of the first with backlit CMOS as well.
Oh, and I think Pentax, if you want to consider them a camera compay, uses Sony sensors.
They also make the sensor in the excellent d7000, which handles high iso really well.
This can only be good news..

I'm sorry; the list was real (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clear_Channel_Communications). It wasn't an official ban per se, more of a suggestion, sent by Clear Channel Communications to stations they owned.
There's a lot of speculation in that Wikipedia article and very few citations of credible sources.
And then there's this...Official response to controversy
Clear Channel officially denies most of these allegations. An article titled Know the Facts (http://www.clearchannel.com/Corporate/PressRelease.aspx?PressReleaseID=1167&p=hidden) on its corporate website addresses many of these concerns."

uh no... wrong.
IANAL, but A. the beatles lost... apparently a didnt believe they were protecting their property
The Beatles prevailed in the first trademark dispute, and Apple Computer are still barred from using that name and logo for music. In the more recent case, Apple Computer were found not to infringe because they carefully avoided using the Apple logo for the iTunes Store itself.
B. exactly what property do you think they were protecting? the idea that no company should be allowed to be called apple, in any business, ever? even after the same exact case had been settled before? ever heard of the 5th amendment?
The fifth amendment is US law, and does not apply in the UK where the the most recent trademark dispute was resolved. Even if it happened in the US, the fifth amendment is about crime, not civil disputes. Finally, the two Apple disputes were not for the same instance of alleged infringement, so even if it was a crime, a new case would be fine (the fifth amendment wouldn't prevent you being tried for alleged involvement in two robberies of the same bank).

Hopefully when you download FCX from the App store it does not mess with FCP 7, so then you will have everything FCP 7 has and also FCX, best of both worlds.
Yes I know the "pros" want more, always will. I don't consider myself a pro, I commented before on my projects only 30% are paid jobs, while 70% is fun or free jobs I do for friends hoping for some word of mouth to spread. For what I do FCX new power will take advantage of my 8 Core Pro, while hopefully making all my projects look even better. So for an amuture this is great especially the price tag.
Like almost everyone here I dislike iMovie 11 and rarely use it, not even sure I used it for a simple project since iMovie 10 since I disliked that also, though I played with it enough to use it fully if needed.
I'm most curious about the learning curve, I know both iMovie and FCP so I just hope this is an easy transition so my work keeps moving and I want that paid % to go up.

I don't know, citizenzen. Tell me: would it have helped the United States to have some country intervene the outcome in our civil war?
At the moment, I'm more interested if Piano's military intervention criteria apply to the Republic of Congo.
Look at the Civil Wars in America and in England. There were no air threats then. I feel that is the difference. As long as Gaddafi has bombers and fighters at his disposal, he has an unfair advantage against the rebels. But hey, let's all agree with Rand Paul and let Gaddafi flatten his country and kill his people right on Europe's doorstep. :rolleyes:

Can we talk about the disparity between the dificulty levels? I played the game through the first time on heroic and I am not trying to pat myself on the back or anything but it wasn't that hard. I played the first level on legendary last night and I'm pretty sure I died at least a billion times. Whats the deal? I don't remember Halo 3 being like that.
Yea, they seem to really amp up the damage you take when the difficulty rises. I don't like that method. It takes like 3 or 4 shots from a Grunt's Plasma Pistol to completely down your shield, and then pretty much any shots after that will kill you. It isn't very fun. I would prefer if they would just make the enemies harder to kill, like with better shields or better tactics. Just making it easier for them to kill me isn't really challenging, it is just arbitrarily difficult, and pretty lame.
And yes, this game is a good deal harder than Halo 3. I think it is a combination of the improved AI, more enemies, and the fact that they almost always give you a weapon with hardly any ammo. Having to run around looking for weapons, while getting instantly killed is just about as low on my "Fun Factor" scale a game can get.

BEST BUY does not have the ipad on stock. The program they launched today - from their ad is you have to go to the store and pay $100 for a deposit so you can order a unit. They do not have any units on stock. You might as well go directly to apple.com and order from them.
They put the ipad on their front ads but do not have even a single unit on stock. Everyone waiting in line this morning here was disappointed at our local Best Buy store.
You do realize that there are over 1,000 Best Buys? You do realize that not every single one is going to have enough inventory, as supply is limited not only at Best Buy, but everywhere, including Apple.com? If the store you went to had inventory to sell (meaning they had no or few reservations) then they would sell you one. Perhaps they had none, perhaps they had some that were set aside for reservations. How would you feel if you had reserved one and then went to the store to find out they sold the product you had reserved already? The reason they offered the $100 down on a reservation is because they didn't have any left to sell you. I don't see how this is false advertising.

I installed Core Duo Temp bofore I updated my Macbook firmware. I got a logic board and heastsink replancement (and a lot more apparently... the list is pretty long, looks like they changed everything except RAM and HDD). Core Duo temp reported 10*C core temperature (90 % CPU at 2 GHz). It used to be in the 60s before that... After the firmwareupgrade the report was correct again (60*C).
PS: I have a screw in the middle of the bottom. Dunno if it has always been there. It could inded have been addd to hold the new (different) logic board and the heatsink in place so both won't touch ach other. But it doesn't look like it was added afterwards... is there anyon who didn't get his macbook repaired yet have this screw too? It's exactly in the centre of the shell on the bottom of the case. Just beeing curious. :-)

Well it's a question of if you rather touch screen or physical buttons. And all this has been said before but who cares right? its just a forum. I'm not a fan of anything touchscreen that's not 10". Its just too cramped and all some people want, is a music player. Forget all the iOS and all the games and calculators and gadgets. Sometimes ppl just want a music player. And i haven't broken the screen on my iPod ever. 90% of touch break in the first month. I know a lot of people who I've laughed at so many times because of it. Ive thrown my ipod, it fell off the earphones as i was swinging it, (fill in creative way to try and break something here). And the max is what at the moment? 32 gig? The classic is a heavy duty storage machine for most. It's not hard at all to navigate. It should always go artist\album\song or sometimes if you're like me just listen to a whole album at a time.
