I was alone at work so I wasn't aware that anything had happened to begin with. I only found out about it when my boss came back from a meeting and told me what she'd heard on her car radio. This was just before the first tower came down which, if memory serves, was about an hour-or-so after the initial strike.

if your talking about accidental dialing try AskToCall makes you confirm dialing
AskToCall is a nice tweak, really stops the 'pocket dialing' for me. I used it for about a week....but removed it yesterday.
I was thinking it was causing some battery usage and/or sluggishness issues and was removing apps one by one to see which may have been the culprit.
I'll be re-installing it....but thinking about re-installing iOS 4.1 first (on iOS 4.3.2 now, which is probably the issue in the first place).

Hardly. The panel is a S-IPS LG.Philips LM230W02 (for the 23"). This is probably the very best panel you can buy anywhere for a 23/24". The displays you are talking about aren't similar displays at all - they are inferior PVA or TN types. Hence, the price. Faster response times (for gamers) don't appear in S-IPS panels - only in cheaper TN types.
A comparable display is the NEC LCD2490WUXi which you won't find for under about $1100. The ACD 23" is in fact for the quality of the display good value. The main problem with it is the lack of inputs and the 1 year-guarantee.
The only change that Apple could make to the 23" is to things like the inputs (which personally I would like to see) because there is no better panel. Of course they could change to a 24" but this is not a better panel. Just a slightly larger one.
One legit worry is if you buy the 23" now, and Apple changes to a 24" then buying a second panel will be a problem.
The above is the best summary post I have read concerning the actual VALUE of the ACD 23 and of the risk of mis-match if/when Apple changes it to a 24". But make no mistake, for the technology, the ACD 23 is priced correctly.

To the delight of many existing 5G owners, iPod Software 1.2 (included with iTunes 7) will provide capability to playback the increased resolution of new iTunes TV Shows, Music Videos, and Movies. The technical specifications of the 5G had originally stated the maximum resolution for h264 playback as 320x240 px.
How does that work? The movies have 640x480 resolution while the iPod has 320x240 screen. iPod specs-page specificly mention that it can play back those movies. So how does it work?

I think that within a year or two even consumers will be demanding more picture quality. Even cheaper displays are beginning to have more contrast and wider gamut than crt's used to have. With new displays consumers start to see PQ problems with older content. This leads to demand for higher PQ content. Here in Finland, sd-dtv was generally considered high quality with older crt's, but when hd-lcd's got more common, people started complaining about artifacts.
And maybe even smaller movie companies start realizing that they need color management...:rolleyes:
Well Said!! Agree totally --- thanks for the thoughts.

Well, I don't have a removal story to relate, but I do have a large (probably about 4 inches long by 1 inch wide) black tattoo on my ankle that I desperately want to rid myself of. I definitely plan to have it removed at some point in my life, but I simply can't afford it right now. I'm hoping the treatments will become less expensive and more effective in the future.
So, jywv8, your story leads me to believe that my worst fears are true.... that tattoo removal is ultra-expensive and takes a long time. Is it painful too?
Anyway, good luck with the whole thing. I checked out a couple of sites on laser removal, and it honestly made me jealous to see those tattoos disappear like that! I'd give anything to just make mine go away!! Isn't it funny how stupid decisions you make when you're 17 can affect you the rest of your life?? :)

I have a Nikon D3100, even at shutter speed of 1/200, it feels like the shutter is set at 1/8. I takes shots like it was set at 1/200 but the shutter seems slow and very loud.
What could be the issue?

Here are a few forums where you can read opinions about video gear for the amateur and semipro filmmaker. There are surely hundreds of others. These should give you a feel for what others were looking for and how they solved their problems.

But in all honesty I haven't seen a game yet on iOS that really blew me away, so as far as gaming goes I think getting a console is the better choice..
I don't think anyone thinks a portable game is as good as a console. What this thread is about is the dedicated portable game market getting eaten by the iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch devices.
A console is no good to you on a train or while waiting in an airport.

I just updated my 5G ipod:
-Brightness control now available (great for the car at night, ipod is almost blinding)
-Gapless
-Sound Check? (I dont remember seeing that on the ipod, was it there before?)

Would also be nice if they had a $250 15" LCD and a $99 CRT monitor.
But Apple has always walked away from the low margin product -- though the $650-$699 eMacs for education are reaching down quite a bit.
Basically there isn't enough margin in the low end for Apple to sell there -- it's basically a loss-leader and/or break even (if they're lucky) product for the likes of a lot of other companies.

In a 7th grade graphic design class (that was usually my "sleeping bell"). The teacher usually let us watch TV, and we popped it on about 10 minutes before the first tower fell. Then, the administrators came on over the PA and told everyone to turn off the TVs and get back to work. That didn't go over so well, I have to say...so everyone did it anyway.

I have a 2006 mini I use as an HTPC, the fan is louder than I'd like it to be but it's running at a normal RPM so there's not much I can do about it. My sister has a 2010 mini and I noticed it's much quieter than mine, nearly silent. So I was wondering if anyone knows if the fan model used in the 2010 would work in a 2006?
Maybe you already tried this, but I have a 2005 mini and I opened it yesterday, because I never did it and was curious. Ofcourse there was a bunch of dust inside it and after giving it a quick blowthrough it was much quieter. Probably means you 1) need less RPM to cool sufficiently (although you said it's running at normal frequency), and 2) less noise will be generated at the same RPM level. Get some decent pressured air (canned or perhaps some sort of pump) and you'll get probably better results than I did.
If you (like I did) never cleaned it, it's only to be expected that your mini makes more noise than your sisters.
