I just thought of something-
What if the iPhone 5 actually IS coming out in June, and Apple started the rumors that it wasn't coming until later, so they would have an excuse to sell the white iPhone 4? :eek:

So ridiculous dude. Just embarassing. Do you really think anyone has the time or desire?
Sure. Lots of newbies do. A jobs a job. Beats having to say "[d]o you want fries with that?"

I don't think this one's comin' around. I think this is one of those CYA patents. Carrying around mulitple modues along with your machine doesn't seem to have that Apple elegance.

Definitely Will Happen:
�Mail and iCal updated to resemble Mobile Me
�Interface updated to resemble Mobile Me (more helvetica, less gloss)
Would Be Nice:
�Major focus on graphics performance. Perhaps of a way for an 3D App (i.e a game) to monopolize the CPU and GPU, like in Windows.
�Dropstack and tabs in Finder, to obviate the need for Path Finder (for me)
� New File System, whatever they started to work on after the ZFS licensing fell through.
� Bring back the normal audio/video controls in the Finder
� Tags
� iChat removed from the OS. New Mac and Windows versions with FaceTime, available immediately.
� Faster way to switch to Bootcamp in the Apple Menu (this was a feature in a beta, and they took it out.)
� Better-looking folder icons with COLOR that stand out.
� Resolution independence
� Quicktime X with 7's features; Quicktime 7 gone
Not Counting On It:
� Editable Apple Menu, like in days of old
� Copy and Paste in Finder
� A better looking, flatter bottom dock without the stupid reflections (I have mine set to the 2D version now)
� Blu-ray support
I would really like to see a iCal & Mail to resemble Mobile Me.
But that thing your not counting on, Blu ray support. Yeah your right, don't count on that.

I upgraded my mini to a core 2 duo. Which means that from now on, firmware updates will be just a little bit more exciting. :)
Anybody know, before I plunge in, whether this update will have any impact on my upgraded mini?

I still shake my head a little at the sight of a British couple coming into my favorite microbrewery, ordering two Budweisers, and then leaving in disappointment. I still cannot imagine the historical sequence of events that leads to this tragedy.
Rogue runs a tied house here in the city, which of course carries mostly their beers, but also is required to carry Coors Light as a part of a deal they have with Coors to distribute for them. Last time I was there it was listed on the board as Coors "We Pity You" Light.
Oh, and Lee, I know a place that occasionally serves up a pretty awesome pomegranate cider. Just saying. ;)

Yep, and the funny thing is, even if you want to pretend 30% is an issue, fine! Charge 100% more for the iPad subscription. That should make up for it, no? I'd gladly pay it.
The 500% increase they're asking now is outrageous. (Wired is $10 for 12 issues through Amazon.)
And amazon is taking at least 30%, I would be shocked if the cut was that small.
It costs right around $1 per magazine to print, design and mail for very large circulations. Magazine not newspaper. Take out the printing and mailing and you're probably looking at about $.75 costs. Sell it for $.99 on the ITMS and Apple takes $.33 and they lose money. Magazines have very little wiggle room price wise.
BS, see above or join any large affiliate program that has accounts with major magazine publishers. Apple is about their cheapest avenue because they even process the payment for them.
WSJ pays 30% for each new subscriber you bring if you are on the CJ program. They pay MORE to higher volume affiliates. Almost all of the publishers are in the 25% to 35% range.
If they can't get all of their ads into the online version, that is a personal problem they should work out. The iPad readers are automatically the top of their Demo too, no reason any of their advertisers would purposefully shun them.

It seems to me that this trend can be seen in most universities. A friend of mine works at the campus computer store, which is an offical apple reseller, and he sees this at work. He says that out of the stores notebook sales approx. 1/5 to 1/4 are macs.
On another note i'm in my first year now and i, as well as some of my friends, bought laptops this year. A good 10 out of 15 or so are macs, 3 mbps and the rest mbs.

I guess the question is are there enough iPhones out and about to provide good traffic data?
I mean will there be enough iPhone 3GS/4/(whaever the new version is called), will the traffic information be sent in the background even if I never use the built in Apple application?
Oh man, you have no idea! On the navigation map while driving, you see icons of other WAZE users around you, there are hundreds all around the map. I had so many occasions where I would stop at a traffic light and see so many icons around me, look to the sides and see other WAZE users with the app running in their car. :)

That title is.. interesting? Okay it's a giant pun (and a biblical reference zing!). I think it would be facinating to have the non-authorized version from people who worked for, or fell under, his reign at Apple.
I like both sides of stories, but maybe that's just me.

I am honestly not fussed about this.
I would much rather have a physical apple branded itunes server for my house to fit in with my personal eco-system. I just cannot see myself using this - especially with the inevitable restrictions that will come with music I have ripped from my purchased CD's.
Well you already have time capsule, I agree it's a half arsed solution, but anyway it's not an either or thing, we do need much (much) better cloud solutions and AND home servers. And most of us will be far better off with both of them as neither really replaces the other.
Anyway, as someone said, get on with it, I 'd say the same. We can't wait for it.

I love the anti-phising stuff. I also hope they include built in anti-virus and anti-spyware. I know there isn't much of either for the Mac but it would be great for marketing and the day when something bad does appear.

What? Its by far one of the biggest games of the year in the games industry regardless of platform. PC news sites are covering it too, as would any platform specific news site when the most important games are being released.
Crazy.
And your point is? :D
People are still gonna complain unfortunately:( Its all about priorities. I for one am a huge Valve fan period(hence my interest in the thread)...that said, Im not super enthusiastic about MR threads on "Facetime Updates"/etc. People just care about different things...I dont think thats crazy;) Stay well friend!

Agreeed.
Here is the line-up
iPod schuffle
iPod nano

iPod X (X being a real cool marketing name)
the iPod X will be the 'True Video iPod'
schuffle??
His shuffle's had another scuffle.

Given the rain and the lack of headway England made today I'd expect to see the Aussies try to play through tomorrow and stack up a few runs, then try to skittle England out in a day on Monday, weather permitting.
This means the game is heading for an Aussie win or a draw.
If England can get amongst the wickets early, cause a bit of consternation in the Aussie tail and restrict them to a modest lead then the target becomes too small to protect and England can bat through for the draw or leave the Aussies too big a target to reach in the last couple of hours.
I'm still forecasting a draw, but hopefully with some cracking cricket on the way.

I work for BestBuy/GeekSquad, so let me confirm that that yes, we'll be selling iPhones at launch, and there will indeed be an employee purchase hold to allow clients to purchase the entire stock for a certain period of time.
You will be able to use rewardzone certificates, store credit, gift cards, anything that would normally apply to other in-store categories.
Also the warranty that BBY mobile sells on the iPhone is pretty decent, it includes ADH (accidental damage from handling) so if you drop the phone, spill water on it or get it wet, crack the screen, all that stuff is covered under warranty.
when something is wrong the genius bar replace the phone on the spot. does best buy do that?

64 bit iPhoto and iWeb are pretty much a sure thing but wouldn't count on a 64 bit iMovie just yet. Apple still hasn't truly potted QuickTime to 64 bit. The 64 bit API that they have is pretty weak and even then most of the real work happens on a separate 32 bit thread. I would be shocked if we saw 64 bit video editing apps from apple before 10.7

I'm inclined to believe they're real, and I like them :) Expos� for Safari tabs? It's like they read my mind. I hope they're real come Monday.
Hey, numbskull, is "purpoted" even a word??
And did you look at the FULL size screenshots floating around? Muy suspicious. Don't get your hopes up, bud.
