My sentiments exactly. . .
It probably was a typo though, I don't see how iPhone 4 users are complaining, if anything it's the people going to be off contract I.E the 3GS crowd.
Regardless if people want the latest in tech it's their business. I can't wait to upgrade though :p

Before getting slapped... I guess if youre a billionaire you can shove earbuds into a strangers ear, but here in Real World USA the results would not be pretty. Do that with your girlfriend, I dont think ANYONE would want a stranger theyve known for 1 minute coming up to them and putting crap into their ear.
If you're unable to walk up to a girl and ask her if she wants to listen to a cool song, but more than ready to semi-anonymously ask the same thing by connecting to her music player ... well, I guess the Zune might have a market with the socially inept looking for others who are socially inept.
But, in my opinion, if I were to ask someone to listen to a cool song, I'd want to strike up a conversation first, maybe introduce the song, etc. Sending a message like "Someone wants you to listen to something. Accept?" just soounds creepy.
And, no, if asked to listen to something by someone unwilling to identify themselves, my answer would be "no", period. That kind of person is too likely to send me heavy breathing or a breathless rant on global consumerism spliced into the middle of a Britney Spears track (the rant might be okay by itself, but ...)
So, no, I see no advantage in that scenario at all.

Lenox Mall one in Buckhead. Here without a car, so it has to be something I can Marta to. I got there early this morning and the sign was already up that they were out of stock for the day.
If you have an idea where I could look let me know. I'd love a 64 gig black ATT ready Ipad2. Many coworkers have either the original or the newer iPad and I'm ready to hop on that train.
Try www.milo.com, that should help you locate one in your area.

Most average Joe iMac consumers aren't even going to notice that the Core 2 Duo is in their machine, and even if they do, it's probably not going to make that much of a difference running Mail and Safari.

His approach is not the most mature. My guess is that he has a better job lined up and simply used his departure to get some notoriety. Grow up!

What's your point? That competitors will now also use 8MP sensors? Well, they already have been using them for quite a while. Apple is simply doing a catch up here. By the time iPhone gets 8MP, other phones will have 10MP or more.
The iPhones 5 MP camera is better then the competitors 8 MP cameras. If they are on the same quality level with a new 8 MP camera it will be better then the competitors 12 MP camera.
Megapixel numbers are not as important as most people think.

But once 4G is implemented, will Verizon's internet and downloading be the same or faster speed-wise than AT&T?
I know currently AT&T is faster...
I have quoted this before but I think it is worth mentioning. IMO this whole 4G thing is a useless until data plans are either cheaper or become truly unlimited.
In reality, of course, why do you need more than a few Mbps? For video. But video only needs a few hundred Kbps to maybe 1.5 to 2 Mbps for a tablet device. If that. And service plans are so data limited, you�re not going to be routinely streaming huge amounts of video anyway when you�re on a 3G or 4G network. You�ll only do that over Wi-Fi. Who cares if the network is faster if it�s fast enough?

If it's shipping in June, even June 30, how can it not be near final form? I mean when a developer tells me s/w is "nowhere near final form" I'm thinking early beta at best. But 2.5 months from release (assume June 30) shouldn't it be in the bug testing phases and everything else locked up?
Would this run on a maxed 13" air ok?
It should except where a plugin or feature is GPU intensive and needs a real video card. That is the real Achilles heel of the 13". (I say that as an owner). Motion will run like molasses though.

wal-mart is acting like a spoiled little brat. thair all upset because apple is getting a better price and are taking it to the heart. like their being uses or something? "how dare those movie studios use somenbody! it's not like wal-mart ever us.... oh wait... thats right their wal-mart." but seriously though ofcourse it's cheaper! it's digital content! i.e. no physical product to ship or package or store ( other that data on server ). wal-mart..... your evil. stop crying when you don't get your way.

Back in the final days of Logic Pro 7 I was considering buying it. It was incredibly powerful but really deep and with a clunky GUI to boot. My procrastination paid off.
Within months Logic Pro 8 came out and they simplified the GUI to be like GarageBand (and oh how all the "Pros" did moan...but only for awhile) and cut the price from $999 to $499. I jumped on it and never looked back.
And now the same sort of thing is happening to FCP. All the power (fingers crossed) but with a much better GUI (yes, sort of like iMovie but only on the surface....just like with Logic Pro and Garageband).
Jumping into this will be a no-brainer for me whereas with the old FCP I would have never "bit".
Give the "Pros" time to come around. A lot of the resistance evaporates over time. Yes, there are actually some people who like difficult programs because then they join the "priesthood" of "those in the know" and get all puffed up.
"BUT BUT BUT...IT LOOKS...DIFFERENT!!!!"
I WON'T BUY IT....I WON'T BUY IT....I WON'T I WON'T I WON'T.

Regardless of the current state of 3D display technology (i.e. terrible), the future will most likely be in 3D. Maybe Apple will be the first to get 3D right, like how they were the first to get the mp3 player, smartphone, and tablet right! You've got to admit, they've proven the general populace on these forums wrong many times.
Obviously, "getting it right" would mean the following:
1. No stupid accessories (glasses, lights on your head etc.)
2. Minimal headache complaints
3. Same, if not better, resolution as the current iPad.. but in 3D
4. Actually adds a whole lot to the user experience
5. POSSIBLY, allowing multiple people to see "3D" from different angles
If they do "get it right", maybe we'll see Apple making 3D TVs. Who knows. They have gone from a computer company to a personal electronics company over the last decade.

No...I think the focus will be on the Macintosh at this year's MacWorld. Therefore I vote for #3. Imagine every new MacBook equipped with an AirPort card that can access AT&T's 3G network. No more searching for WiFi spots. You could access the Internet at fast speeds while cruising down the highway! Pretty cool. It would definitely catch the competition off guard.
THis is one of the most ridiculous posts I have read on this thread. Sorry. So you want Apple to go around the world creating contracts with all mobile operators in the world, so you can use 3G FOR FREE???!! Which isn't even available everywhere??!!.
