Let's hope that's the case! My iPad 2 is a paperweight without jailbreak :)
I agree, I switched to Android from iPhone on my phone... love Android's customizability on their phones... they're better... but Apple's tablet is better** (when Jailbroken) than Xoom... so need JB immediately to make iPad usable :-)

I'm in favour of this move. CDs were great (along with cassette tapes and LPs) because you could play them in any CD player and you could buy the CDs themselves from any shop. For some odd reason we don't get this with MP3 players and I do think that's anti-competitive. If I want to move to a different MP3 player or buy my music from another store to use on my iPod then that should be my choice and Apple should have to accept that. At the moment I am quite happy with my first iPod (aside from the frequent crashes when playing podcasts...) but if I decide to change to something else that is Mac compatible and beats the iPod then I don't want to have to re-purchase my iTunes music that I have bought. If DVD Jon has a way to allow reasonable consumer choice then FairPlay to him.
I have no wish to see Apple get walloped by the competition but the sort of consumer freedom that this offers should keep them honest since if they **** up then we can move some place else.

My favorite are the aggressive comments here demanding that Apple unlock your phone because it is your property. Yeah, the phone is your property. But the network is not. It's AT&T's property. You pay for the service to use it.
If you don't like that, you can switch to a phone that is hackable, and violate the terms of your contract with AT&T. Or switch to another carrier. Or move to another country where there are different regulations regarding carriers. Or write your Representative or Senator. But don't whine that someone owes you something because of what you'd prefer.

Hi guys, so I have a 2010 13" 1.86 GHz 4 GB RAM MBA and was wondering if you think it will run Lion smoothly.
I don't really do anything intensive with my laptop. 95% of my usage consists of internet browser, Microsoft Office apps, email, calendar, HD videos and iTunes. I was just wondering if I'll get the same "smooth" performance I get now running Lion.
Thanks!
I have the very same MBA you have and i used to run Lion on it for about a week. There were no problems except for the usual Lion bugs.
Wait... how does people have Lion already? Is it a beta?
Sorry I'm not really savvy when it comes to these kind of things...Developer Preview? Never heard?

A tiny spider species has triggered a Mazda recall - and there's nothing itsy-bitsy about it.
The yellow sac spider has been nesting in the fuel hoses of certain Mazda6 cars, causing clogs that could lead to fuel leaks and fires.
Mazda announced Friday that it was recalling more than 65,000 cars in the U.S., Canada and Mexico to address the puzzling problem.
The spider is a common household insect but employees of the Japanese automaker are clueless as to why the tiny arachnids chose their brand.
"We really don't know how they're getting in," said Mazda spokesman Jeremy Barnes. "This is a really strange case."
One floated theory is that the spiders are attracted to the smell of gasoline, but though that explanation gets chuckles, bug experts say there is not much science behind it.
"I think gas would kill them if they came in contact with it, and if they were attracted to it we would have found out years ago," said Rick Vetter, a Long Island native and University of California, Riverside researcher who is one of the nation's most prominent entomologists
"I do a lot of myth busting regarding spiders, and it's really amazing the amount of insanity that gets generated about these things," he said.
University of Nebraska-Lincoln entomologist Barb Ogg agrees.
"It doesn't make any sense to me. They like to spend their time in little tight spaces, so I think it's more likely related to how [the fuel system] constructed," she said.
The spiders have been weaving small sacs in rubber hoses attached to the cars' fuel tank system, blocking ventilation and causing pressure that could lead to cracks, gas leaks and in the worst-case scenario a fire.
The company reports there have been no serious incidents related to the bizarre spider infestations.
It was unclear why the eight-legged pests were partial to the Mazda6 - the only model affected - over other models or automakers.
This particular spider is about the size of a dime and weaves a small sac instead of a large web a la Charlotte of "Charlotte's Web" fame.
Mazda launched the recall after dealers around the country reported more than 20 cases of the nesting spiders in Mazda6 models released in 2009 and 2010.
The company said it will notify owners of affected cars this month. Dealers will inspect and clean out the fuel lines if necessary.
Mazda said it may never solve the mystery of the fuel line-dwelling spiders.
Cracking a joke on the Mazda's popular commercial jingle, Barnes siad, "Perhaps yellow sac spiders like to go Zoom-Zoom?"http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/2011/03/04/2011-03-04_bizarre_fuel_hose_spider_infestations_spark_mass_mazda_recall_65000_cars_recalle.html

What are you planning to do? Lots of tilt/shift effects are possible in post these days.
You can correct converging verticals easily (using the Photoshop transform tool), create the look of reverse-tilt low depth of field images (http://www.visualphotoguide.com/tilt-shift-photoshop-tutorial-how-to-make-fake-miniature-scenes/), or use focus-stacking to increase depth of field in photoshop (http://www.drkrishi.com/adobe-photoshop-cs4-auto-blending-focus-tutorial) (instead of using tilt).

Hi
Don't know if this will be of help but I spent ages looking for a way to add subtitles to iTunes content that my deaf family members buy.
I open the movie file up in subler, the file opens fine but you can't access the movie or audio parts as they are protected but you can add a .srt file into the file.
It only takes a couple of seconds and allows them to view subtitles in iTunes but it does however make the file unplayable in QuickTime x for some reason.

Here's all you need to know Mcrain... a hardened weathered old-time farmer works his entire life, pours his blood sweat and tears into paying off his family farm, paying income tax on every cent he earned and property taxes on every square foot of land every single year... yet when he passes away and per his request, his farm passes to his only son, the government decides that they didn't bleed enough out of him. Before his son can have the farm, he must first sell off half of it to the highest bidder in order to pay off the tax man ONE MORE TIME.
It's a tax on accumulated (and previously taxed) income... period.
It's a new tax on the new transfer of the accumulated (and previously taxed) income. Big difference. (edit) Oh, and I already know plenty about the subject. Good try though.
(edit 2)
Fundamental misunderstanding... drives me crazy.
First, the estate tax is not a new tax, but an alternative to what would happen without the estate tax. What? Huh? Confusing? Ok, if you eliminated the estate tax, then there would be no tax at the estate level, but there would also be NO amount of the transfer exempt from taxation, and every heir would be required to include every penny they receive and declare it as ordinary income and pay a tax on that at whatever tax rate they are at. On the other hand, the estate tax simplifies the filing, provides a five million dollar exemption, and doesn't require heirs to mess with the paperwork.

You are going to be so disappointed when they announce the phone and you realize that they just released a phone. Yes, the phone is designed by Apple and has a nice UI, maybe one somewhat unique feature, but you're essentially going to be getting a fairly regular phone with a feature that most people would never use often.
The basis of the "iPhone" rumour is that Apple would release something that is just a phone integrated with an iPod. This has generated excitement because many Apple enthusiasts would like to see Apple's energies directed at this. People will exaggerate their RAZR's flaws in the believe that Apple can fix anything.
It is not based upon the idea that it is actually a good idea for Apple to do this, and right now Apple doing this would prevent them from licensing iTunes in future and thus consign the iTS to oblivion as the minority provider of online music. No device that competes with mainstream Motorola or Nokia products is ever likely to leave the Apple design studios.
So anyone expecting a "regular phone" (with or without a built-in iPod and/or camera) from Apple is more likely to be disappointed than someone expecting something groundbreaking that happens to incorporate mobile phone technology.

Thanks to all the replies,
But i think my question should be a liitle more specific:
I am trying to accomplish this step in the PHP-Nuke setup:
http://phpnuke.org/modules.php?name=PHP-Nuke_HOWTO&page=database-creation.html
Each time I type in the command ./mysqladmin -u root -p create database
It just tells me that there is no such file or directory.
I have done a default install of MAMP and my PHP-Nuke files are in the htdocs folder.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I have to agree here.
Until they find games that the 3D is actually part of game play (it is essential to the actual game and not just add on prettyness), it's just a nice extra but it's a gimmick and not enough to actually sell it over other devices. ANd I really don't see how 3d, at least how it is implemented in the Nintendo, can really be implemented to be part of game play and not just something to pretty up the screen. Sure, it adds to the experience, but it's not essential to the experience. You could play a similar game on another game player easily enough, just not as "pretty".
Any console/hand held in the end, if it is going to sell itself for playing games, has to get the games that make people want it to play them.
Not to rain on your parade but there will never be a game that requires 3D for the 3DS. It will always be optional because not everyone can use it/see it or at the very least can play it for as long before they are fatigued. Game designers probably won't be too keen to limit their market like that for something that would work just as well as a 2D game.
As far as iOS gaming and the virtual joystick kludge, I agree. It is like how in some very early console games/programs you had a full on mouse cursor that you controlled with the D-pad. How long did it take them to figure out that was a horrible idea? You have to design for the device, and not many developers are doing it (great examples of how not to do it are the various RPGs with maybe the exception of Battleheart but even that is a bit clunky). Personally, I hope someone ports a game like Aquaria or Ocarina of Time because I think touch based gaming is much better at music than console or keyboard & mouse because it can just give you a keyboard or some other simulation.

There's no reason to run Garageband on a secondary drive, unless of course you're taking a performance hit due to a drive filling up.
But back everything up, multiple copies of .aiff's, .aac's and especially .band's.
