I'm just hoping they at least give us the OPTION to download HD movies soon (not for this product obviously, but just in general). Just like they have options for watching trailers, we should be able to download the HD version of a movie if we want to/our bandwidth can allow it. I'd actually buy movies of iTunes if this was the case!
I can only assume that we will see the current video resolution (which was only offered just recently) being offered for quite a while. We heard the same complaint with audio since they started offering music downloads without much, if any, increase in quality from Apple (maybe better compression algorithms but I don't think bigger files because of higher bit rates).
I do believe that the resolution that they sell on iTunes (640x480) hints towards what the resolution of this 'video' iPod will be. I'm sure that this decision was made with this device in mind.
Does anybody know what size screen this resolution would imply? How small can/should technology allow a 640x480 screen be?

Probably not, or you'd see Chevrolet selling the old generation Corvettes for the price of a Chevette. Just so poor people could afford a fast car.
Doubtful there is enough margin in the eMac for Apple shave $500 out of the price and still make money.

No problem. I have windows 7 installed on my MacBook Pro. In the weekend I'll boot to windows and figure out a window solution.
I made a new connection in windows 7 for a VPN, the vpn worked fine but didn't work for optimum app for live tv, if you have a solution for windows that would be great :)

I hate how you have to download the entire OS every time there's a small update like this. 666MB for a few bug fixes... Also, what's up with the 666MB? Maybe we should stay away from this update guys lol.
Mine shows 650.2MB...hmmmm interesting

I believe I saw an EFI update that addressed issues with fans, check the apple support site, it may be what you need.

Thanks, but I saw nothing regarding my early '08 machine. I have the latest firmware update already. Not sure what it would have to do with it locking up while using Safari?

So here was my experience today. Short version: not too shabby!
I arrived at Arrowhead Mall around 11:15 am, found my way to the back of the reservation line.
The line was roughly 3 mall storefronts long, went from the Apple Store, past Sephora and 2 other ladies clothing stores.
The walk-in line was barely moving, but the reservation line moved at a decent clip. I got to the front of the line by around 12:30. Being lunch time, the Apple employees were handing out chocolate chip cookies from Paradise Bakery along with some water. They were also profusely thanking folks in line for toughing it out.
Got in the store at 12:35 pm, left about 10 minutes later at 12:45pm.
All told I was there 1h 30m, which wasn't too bad at all. And I got to sleep in and got a cookie. Sounds like this store was having a better time of it than most, and I feel fortunate it didn't take me too long.
One thing: they were completely out of bumpers. I was going to pick one up because of the reported "cupping" issues as I'm a lefty-phone-holder, but I'll have to wait on that.

Hello. I ordered a iPad 2 from the Norwegian Apple Store at it's launch (25th of March). When I look at the estimated delivery time, it says that I will get it at 23rd of May.. WTF!? 2 Months? It said when I ordered it that it would take 2-3 weeks, not 2-3 months.. Is this normal? :(

are you using version 1 or version 1.0.1 of cablevision app?
Coleman and others - this temp sync will work and as a side benefit you won't be able to update in itunes :) I tried it few times with my friend and shared app works just fine. Only issue I see is CV closing this hole by disabling older version of software from accessing the network. until that happens your idea will work
Forgot one thing. There is no need to drive or go anywhere. This can be done remotely via teamviewer application. Its free and works fast.

Are they going to wait until they have a $100 billion cash stockpile before giving a dividend?
The problem - at least according to one investment blog - is that it's money located offshore. If they distribute a dividend, they have to pay corporate tax on it. If the US ever declares another corporate tax holiday, they just might hand out a dividend.

If they're stored they're not available to you. They're probably kept for data mining purposes.

Actually I have 3 T-Mobile phones, each has GPS for use in E-911. Its a new federally mandated requirement.
Unless a different e911 came out I don't think that's true. All e911 required is that positioning information was available - it didn't require a specific technology. It differentiates between handset and network technologies but accepts both.
GSM networks do it by cell tower triangulation, a network technology, not GPS, a handset technology.

Since Leopard won't be out until spring you will have to pay the full price. Apple is pretty stingy about giving discounts to their OS upgrades. If you had purchased you MBP a week before Leopards release you might have receive it for free.
Yeh, I think last time it was something like 28 days...
Either way, it hasn't got anything to do with stingy; let us say for the sake of argument that I purchased a Dell computer today, and vista is released on 1st February. Surely you're not expecting Dell to ship you Vista free? No Way - it's not good business sense.
Apple Hardware and Software probably have different division headings so you can't argue that the above analysis is not viable.

Thanks, you've really helped out.
One question that does come across though is once I flash the card with EFI and select the SSD as a boot drive from an existing OSX install I will want to install Mac OSX fresh on this now bootable SSD and ditch the default OSX installation on which I chose the SSD as the boot drive. Can I do this? Or must I clone the existing OSX install onto the new SSD drive first?
I was thinking after making the SSD boot drive I could simply boot off the OSX install discs and install OSX on this SSD?
You can do it either way.
Cloning is easier (already has both the OS and card drivers installed), but if you want a clean installation, you use the install disks, then the disk that came with the RAID card (card settings are on the card).
Another alternative, is start clean on the existing OS disk, then clone (this would should be more "fool proof" than trying to use the DVD installation disks directly to the SSD, as you could potentially run into an issue setting the SSD as the boot location if that's not already set (which makes a change in the system's firmware).
It's going to be a new system with no important data, so I don't care about cloning the existing OSX install which comes on the 1TB HDD with the 8-core 2010 Mac Pro. In fact I am going to pull that drive out altogether.
If the current installation isn't cluttered with things you no longer want/need (i.e. just the OS and RAID card drivers), creating a clone would be the fastest and easiest way to go.
If it is cluttered with crap you no longer want (reason for a clean OS X installation), see above.
Perhaps I am complicating things too much here and after flashing the card to EFI, I can just shut down, take out the original 1TB HDD with OSX. Start the PC, launch the Areca EFI RAID BIOS menu with the right key press, put the 2x SSD's in pass through mode and 4x 3TB in RAID5. Afterwards just boot off the OSX cd and it will see the 2x SSD drives and the RAID5 volume and just install OSX on one of the SSD's like I want? Will I have troubles installing Win 7 through bootcamp on the 2nd SSD drive when its running off the Areca in pass through mode ?[/QUOTE]
Put the Windows disk on the ICH (system's SATA ports), as the card cannot dual boot like that in a MP (been tried before and has never worked).
Other than the Windows disk, it will work.
Also maybe you know, for installing 2x 6G SSD's in the 2nd 5'25" optical bay I obviously need either the OWC multimount adapter bracket 2.5 to 5.25 or other, but for power do I need a SATA power Y splitter or something to get power to both SSD's ? Both of these will be connected to the Areca in pass through mode, the length of the included miniSAS cable should be fine to reach to the SSD's in the optical bay right ?
Well, since one of these needs to be connected to the DATA portion of the backplane cable and you need to split the power off for the OS X SSD (presume this is to be both the OS X and Windows disk locations, as it's the most logical), then do the following:
How to make a cable that retains both the DATA and splits power to multiple drives in the empty ODD bay.

so will there be a new one and what will be the changes... (dual, superdrive,...)
would like to know that
