I can add that I checked with a technology instructor who compared her iPhone to mine and noticed that even when she manually put in her schools internet specifications, it still didn't access the internet. It can see the wifi, but when you select that little blue arrow to the right of the network name, there are no settings showing at all. Of course, on her phone, everything shows up. Apparently my phone can see the network but fails to connect.
Do I need to go to the Apple Store and see what the genius's there can tell me?
Or, because it's nearly 2 years old, do I just need to upgrade to a new phone and tell them that this one is defunked?

Yeah you can pay the way you want at the Apple Store, but I'm not sure you are allowed to buy it without signing up for a plan, because they're just $199 WITH the contract. Maybe they'll have a $599 version w/o contract ?
Have you looked at Fido's offer ? I'm seriously planning to switch from Rogers to Fido. They have invoicing by the second vs by the minute at Rogers, and Nights and week-ends start earlier too.

they are having trouble with the A5 bootrom. Looks bad.
But a userland exploit works, at least for 4.3 and partially for 4.3.x
Yhe reason the 4.3 jailbreak has yet to be released is that the hack contains apple code, and distrubuting the jailbreak would be piracy.
So i think he is trying to write his own code to exchange the apple parts.

I know that the ipad and iphone are really popular, but doesn't it seem that there are so many less rumors about the actual Mac than in years past? I've been using this site since 2005 and it seems that way to me at least. 1-4 rumors a day about anything IOS, while I I feel lucky to get a Mac rumor every couple of days.
I know times have changed and all, but it would seem that the sources would keep the info coming along. Am I the only one:confused:

I picked up an older APC 1500 XS with an external 47lb. APC XS/RS battery pack for $20 as-is from a surplus place ($1500+ retail). I let the unit charge overnight and with a PC pulling 200W and my screens, speakers, modem and airport extreme pulling less than another 100W I could get 120 min of backup power! I knew though, it wouldn't be in surplus if it was working like it should.
Under a 700W load the UPS would fail it's self-test, but at my barebones (387W) it passed just fine even with batteries last replaced in 2005 according to the powerchute software. Everytime the UPS went onto battery, I would hear a constant electrical noise/hum, I thought it was the UPS inverters. I then tried to do the real test - unplug the UPS and see how long the batteries really last under a 387W load. The 6 12V batteries lost 10% every few seconds; batteries are dead. Near the end of the test I bent down and I could hear that the Jacob's Ladder arcing sound/hum was coming from my PC's power supply not the UPS! :eek:
So yesterday 2 9Ah 12V batteries (Tempest) replacement batteries arrived. I installed them and removed the dead external APC battery pack. Now the estimated time is about 25 min, but it will actually last that long. I thought new batteries would have solved the problem. I have an APC 350 between my APC 1500 and my PC, every time I switch to battery power the 350 kicks in and my PC sounds fine for the brief time it's on. Here are my Kill-a-Watt readings:
AC Utility Power: 120-121V, Power Factor: .97-.98
Battery Power: 116V, Power Factor: .79
Here is the sound:http://www.filedropper.com/powersupply It actually sounds more like a large hair trimmer...
From my research, I found that PSUs don't like the square or sine-wave the older APC's put out, and the noise is the PSU's Power Factor correction? Especially if I can expand this UPS unit, I want to make sure it's not doing harm to the devices connected!
Thanks for the help guys!

I noticed that too... I have no idea why they are going to be killing off VB support, but say good-bye to being able to have compatability with any documents with Macros.
I think we need to lean on the MS Mac BU to reverse this decision, and we need to make it VERY CLEAR TO APPLE that this will have major ramifications to the use of Macs in the corporate environment. Maybe Apple can lean on them (with what leverage, I don't know).
Of course, Microsoft can just turn around and say "Well, you want VB so badly? Buy Parallels, Windows, and MS Office 2007. Sure, it's $700, but you Apple users are used to getting fleeced."

I'm going to skip the macbook air, until apple creates a hybrid macbook air/ ipad. It's obvious with Lion that they are starting to make a mac operating system that can be both used regular OS X style, but also switch to touch screen style. I sure hope they can pull it off and make a true hybrid OS, and not two nerfed operating systems strangely conjoined. It will be one of the hardest programming tasks apple has ever faced. Once they have a macbook air where you can rip the screen off and use it like an ipad, then reattach the keyboard (much like the new ipad 2 smart cover) and then use it like a laptop, they'll own the entire mobile computing industry.

Bad RAM. I've had it happen with numerous computers, which is why I paid more for the 8 GB of RAM from Apple, given they can test it prior to shipping. My memory from Apple is Samsung, which I have used a lot without issue. I don't know much about Corsair's memory, so I cannot say anything regarding their product, but I have always used Crucial with good results, and it is a favorite here.

I managed to get Portal 2 working on my new 27" iMac by editing a system file to fool Steam into believing that you are running 10.6.7 - I believe the 10.6.7 requirement is because of new ATI graphics drivers that were bundled with that release and therefore this is quite safe (as the 10.6.6 build on the new iMacs obviously has the drivers for the machine).
I've posted the full details at http://bendodson.com/weblog/2011/05/04/portal-2-on-the-new-imac-10-6-6/ but basically you need to change the SystemVersion.plist file in your /System/Library/CoreServices/ directory so that the two references to 10.6.6 are changed to 10.6.7 - Steam will still complain but when you say "continue anyway" it'll actually run.
Enjoy!

My 3GS is still like new, and I'll keep it until it starts sucking. I'm on 3.1.2 jailbreak, so I have all the features I like and want. I also am one of those people that doesn't recharge until it dies completely, so the battery still lasts two days at a time, unless they update Angry Birds. Then it dies pretty quick while I 3-star everything. (:

Just dropping the height: 200px; should do the trick... it should automatically expand to hold the entire image, and when it's not a 200px image it would be smaller... give it a try... maybe try playing around with min-height and max-height, but I think IE/win has problems with those (what a shock)

I'll tell you what I've told everybody, this is not an AT&T problem. I have the Atrix and I have NEVER dropped a call in Saint Louis. My friend has the iPhone 4 and another has the 3GS in Saint Louis and they CONSTANTLY cannot connect Call Failed or drop calls.
It's the iPhone man.
Living outside of the US it's funny as the dropped call thing always seems to affect American users the most yet people leap to the conclusion it is a problem with the phone. I have owned the original iPhone, 3G and iPhone 4 in the family and no issues here in the UK with dropped calls on any of the phones.
Obviously had a few dropped calls over the years but it is not that frequent. I did notice that the iPhone had worse reception in very low signal areas (all Models) compared to my Dad's old Nokia which has a small external transmitter but then again that Nokia beats every smart phone I have ever seen for reception.
Although I don't think any device with an internal antenna is going to out perform one with an external antenna but taking the rest of the world into account AT&T are definitely a factor in the dropped calls as they seem to be way more frequent in the USA on AT&T than other service providers around the world.

Who's stopping you from upgrading? I'd do it now, get the 4, then be ready for the 6 next year!
You wont be waiting for the 6 if you upgrade now (regardless to iPhone 4 or 5), you'll be waiting for the 7.

I don't think we're ever going to have a shortage of wealthy and powerful people; even authoritarian government have their share of plutocrats. I also question the notion that the acquisition of wealth is always assumed to have been legitimately "worked for" or "earned". ENRON, Madoff, the banks during the credit crunch....
As evidence that some rich people didn't earn their wealth, you just referenced Enron that went bankrupt, Madoff who went to prison, and the Banks who we bailed out... and would have otherwise gone bankrupt. So, essentially three examples where the free market either did or would have (without government intervention) correctly punished bad businesses. Odd choice.
At any rate, you're putting words in my mouth. We all collectively decide how to govern ourselves, and it's not always the case that a simple majority is enough to implement changes to the status quo. Also, it has been demonstrated time and time again that a small number of wealthy and powerful people can get their way in the face of overwhelming opposition from less wealthy and powerful people. It cuts both ways. You seem to be trying to characterize any increase in taxes on the rich as a form of theft perpetrated by the rest of the nation; that's a very twisted take on the concept of taxation.
Hardly. All I'm trying to do is better understand your position. You seem to take the position that the majority or mob rule can decide how much money to take from one person without inflicting the same on another person... in effect choosing winners and losers. Furthermore, you seem to not put any limit on this position so it would seem that you feel the majority has the right/ability to take as much money from 'the rich' as they choose to as long as they do it with a majority in the democratic process. This would imply that you don't think that the person who actually earned the wealth has any sort of moral or legal claim on the wealth. Please enlighten me as to where I am going astray in describing your position.
