Bloatware, unusable since like what, version 3? 4?
Isn't this exactly what we said when they killed IE. And we were right then too!

There's a timing issue here.
While LTE is out, it's not widely deployed yet. Cores of cities are being covered, but many markets don't have coverage yet (true for me personally - my "market" has coverage, but only where I work and not on the commute home, or at home).
Mobile chipsets for LTE are also power-hungry today.
When do you push to have LTE in your handset? Sure, Verizon may be pushing it, but until a device can meet Jobs's's's high bar for performance, I don't see a shift just yet.
Perhaps a delay to September makes things clearer to Apple. Perhaps there's a new chipset coming from QC which doesn't suck space and power (and generate a lot of heat in the process).
September also allows for a bunch more expansion of LTE, specifically VzW here in the states.

If they had them, and consequently added probably $100 or more to the price of the display, would you actually commit to buying one... today?
& i'm sure folks want faster reaction time better graphics capabilities
Possibly, but that's a limitation on LCD tech in general which will get better with time, but Apple LCD's at present are probably among the best computer LCD displays available. I don't know what else you'd do until the tech itself improves... except to say this: Those who are really serious about color, clarity and contrast should stick to CRT's for the time being. Nothing beats a Trinitron in this arena.
& somewhere, someone wants it glossy
Probably... but the greater likelihood is that graphic designers who tend to buy the higher end Apple LCD's don't. Matte displays are far better for accurate color and contrast. Glossy displays falsely enrich the image, which is a problem if you're trying to maintain a color match from prepress to proof.

There has to be some incentive to work harder. Taxing him at 50% or so would be OK though.
At that level, I am not seeing the need for incentive, please explain why billionaires need incentive to work harder?

Why don't you just split the audio with a Y adapter so that you don't have to switch it. It will just always be active. This to me seems like a cheaper and better solution.
Sounds like a good idea, it could be much cheaper.

im thinking of queueing up on thursday too. What time does it open? I have never queued for something on launch day before. Is it likely to be a HUGE queue? Will they sell out of iphones in hours? Can I reserve before hand?
Thanks in advance for help.
Joe
p.s. Also do you know if orange stores will be selling the iphone on pay as you go and have them in stock from thursday? Also if I was to buy one from vodafone on pay as you go(I know a guy in the shop), would it work on orange?
I'm not sure whether to go touchwood solihull. I haven't reserved but was hoping to get a 16gb white iphone 4....what are my chances?

Beyond that, I would try creating a new admin account (or logging in as one if you already have it) and using Software Update. It'd be an interesting test to see if the problem is relegated to your user or is a system-wide problem.
You know, I was going to try the new admin trick, but when I went to set one up, I could only create a standard user. I have to look at the help docs to see how to create a new admin. It was late and I was tired when I was trying to do this last night. I am still scratching my head over how it could have happened to both the laptop and desktop at about the same time.
Weird.
Thanks for your help,
Rob

Could it be that Apple is going to release this new video iPod after Zune so it can steal MS's thunder?....
What do you guys think?
I've been thinking this all along. However, the rumors don't seem to support a near release. But except for the price change, the Sept. iPod releases were not very revolutionary. Release this and watch what happens at holiday time. :D

Nice. I was getting so annoyed at the guys in the tukwila thread talking about how cool they are.
I'll be there. 12:00 AM? I'm a black friday veteran but I think you may be overestimating things a tad. I'll be there at three.
I saw people setting up camp the night before at 9:00 PM. I don't want to be that far towards the end and besides I'm going to be working while camping out so it's win/win :)

Not sure what "issues" you're having, but I've had 4.3 (never seen it called "4.3.0" since there's no such thing, Math 101), but I don't have gyro issues, and my battery life is fantastic. I can't say I use facetime much, but when I have I've had no issues. Sounds like you might have a device issue, not a widespread OS issue. When Apple released 4.3, it was widely understood that it was released to plug the jailbreak.... tho it seems for many that "issues" suddenly are realized when Apple releases a "fix" ... I have a feeling that you're the type that if Apple releases 4.3.2 to fix "volume issues" you'll suddenly complain that you hate 4.3.1 because of the volume bug, even though you'd never mentioned it until they said they're fixing it. That's the type of person psychics prey on... lol.
This is why I ditched iPhone and went to Android 2 months ago. I got sick of the waiting game for jailbreaks. I have no right to a jailbreak, I just wanted it sooner, and the devs have had a harder and harder time making it happen for every OS release. Android on the other hand, has everything I jailbreak for already built into the OS... widgets, better multitasking, personal hotspot (not ad-hoc crap, etc). I bought an iPad assuming the chatter about "it's almost here" from 3 weeks ago wouldn't be like the Christmas promises that didn't come through till February for iPhone, but again I was disappointed.
Again, I don't feel entitled to something, my frustration isn't with the Dev Team, it's with Apple. They're focusing sooooo much energy on fighting jailbreaking that Android has focused the same time on building the features and OS that users want. If this thing doesn't come out in the next week this iPad is going back. Apple already lost me in the phone business, guess they want to alienate me as a tablet customer too?
Ok, queue the Apple fanboy flamers... it's fine, I can take it. I speak from reality not fanaticism. 1 year ago iOS owned the market, now Android does. Give it one more year and it won't even be close if Apple continues to treat customers like prisoners. That didn't work out well for them in the 80s, which gave MSFT the ammo they needed to permanently take the market, and this isn't panning out any different.
I own a iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPod Touch 3G, and an iPad 2, so I am certainly partial to Apple products. But regardless of that, I have to say that was well said bella.

That's true. But which spreadsheet user is aware of this? This should be resolved by the app, not by the user.
You are totally right. And by the way, every user should be aware that computers don't know much about numbers. ;) Computers are limited, they have a limit on the integers they can handle. So, only with integers they miss an infinite quantity of numbers. Then when you start looking at rational and irrational numbers, you realize that computers knows pretty much nothing. The actual probability to pick up any real number (rational or irrational) who exists and to have it known by the computer is 0. :eek: In other words, it's a little bit like the computer knows about the trees of one garden when you have on earth so much more trees in all the forrests. Still, computers are great tools, and help us calculate things which would take hundred of years without them. :D

It was brought up in another thread, but I didn't want to completely hijack it for this purpose.
I spent a little (very little) time adding some links and information to the Cocoa FAQ. I changed the link text from the forum head to "How do I get started programming on the Mac?" to hopefully guide people there more readily, as newcomers may not know what Cocoa means.
I'd encourage everyone to beef up the FAQ to include more iPhone specific examples, and links to any helpful tutorials, etc.
I think it would be good to have a "one-stop shop" for newcomers instead of us posting essentially the same answers to(snip)
yeah, that was likely the guides original intent. so, keep improving the "permanent" rumors FAQ/guide pages. When "someone" replies with extensive info, hopefully "someone" (someone else?) will review that from perspective of adding the reply as a writeup for the guides.
one labor-saving suggestion: link out to the "usual" references (wikipedia comes to mind).
preferably don't "repeat" info that's well-covered at wikipedia. instead contribute blobs of prose which are original, rather than "sourcable" info (that info should be in wikipedia, since "sourcability" is a wikipedia requirement, per encyclopedia tradition).
Of course, complete topics which wikipedia ignores have the same appropriateness for rumors guide.

Well, you're ambitious, I'll give you that :D
As mentioned above, why not try and create a simple web page, see how that goes and how well you take it in (try HTML and CSS to start with). Then decide if it's feasible to take on a project of that scope yourself, or whether it will work out more cost and time effective to hire someone.
Personally, I think it would take you 3-6 months to do it (finger in air guess) from scratch.

The Boot Camp drivers provided by Apple aren't that great, especially for the trackpad and the brightness controls. When I'm dragging and dropping files in Windows 7 on my MacBook Pro, I tend to press down with one finger and drag with another finger.
I have my trackpad set up on Windows 7 and OS X to have it so that the bottom left corner is left click and the bottom right is right click. Tap to click is disabled.
