I still can't believe you lot in the USA have gone for yet another incompatible-with-the-rest-of-the-world frequency for your 3G network meaning that anyone coming to the USA won't be able to use your 3G network and your 3G iPhones will be about as useful as a one legged dog outside the USA.
It's interesting that the T-Mobile guy thinks that the prime use for 3G in the USA will be email and other user generated content and not music though. Personally the last thing I want is content rich email on my mobile phone.

ok i posted this on the apple discussion forum, but thought I would post here as well.
So i got a new MBP, and when I transferred my A3 library over, I noticed that ALL my .TIFF (they are the 1Ds RAW files, before .CR2 was around) have been resized. On my old MBP, they would be full size, and Preview would open them up correctly. Now even Preview resizes them:(.
I open up the files in PS CS4 and ACR opens up, so I know the files are not corrupt or anything. All my .CR2 files are all fine, and are full size when in A3.
**EDIT** now all my TIFF files are corrupt when viewing in A3. here are some screen shots. WTF?

this isn't too difficult to do, there are many ways of doing it.
The way i would do it is with airport expresses and small hi-fi/speaker systems. If you put an airport express into each room they are all capable of receiving a steam from the imac. You then plug the airport express into a hi-fi which will give you control over the volume in each room.
In the waiting room you would also have the same setup and also plug the tv audio output into the hi-fi, then someone can choose the tv or the airport express as the source.
Airports only technically stream from itunes but you can buy a cheep app called airfoil which will stream music from any program i.e pandora.

This makes perfect sense. It's actually a very elegant solution. Expect to see it integrated into Aperature as well.
More and more cameras (and photographers) are getting into this GPS metadata thing. I've started to see GPS units that mount onto a camera's hotshoe and sync up to the photos with a cable.
It's great that someone thought of scripting a button that inputs that metadata into an online map system. It's a simple script for sure. Still, it save me from having to copy and paste coordinates into Google Maps.
I wouldn't count on this having anything to do with a new apple product. It looks like it is just an added function, increasing the user experience. That's the kind of thinking that makes OS X the great operating system we all know and love.:D

Over the course of time, mobiles will displace consoles.
We can already mirror the iPad 2 onto HDTVs. Not the best news for dedicated consoles. It's not perfect, but it's a powerful portent. Dedicated devices (as opposed to convergence) are destined to DIE.
iCal this. Then in 2-3 years revisit this comment and be astounded.
Consoles are not going to die. They're now the driving force behind gaming. They're even holding back PC games now, because Game developers want to maximise profit, by making sure their games can run on consoles. This prevents them from pushing the game to it's limits. Because they'd spend loads of money and only be able to run it on high-end PC's. PC Gaming is the one that's getting smaller.
Gaming is now worth more than movies and music, plus consoles don't just do gaming. My Xbox plays my games, connects me with my friends, we're usually in an 8 player voice chat party together so we can chat, and play separate games if we want. I video chat on MSN on my xbox, I rent 1080p movies on it from Zune sometimes, or just sometimes play a DVD on it. Usually it'll be running Media Center, streaming all my music, movies and photographs from my Laptop.
Physical controllers will always make better controllers for most games, minus a few exceptions like Monkey Ball and perhaps racing games, but then the more realistic gaming like Forza or Gran Turismo will require physical controllers, imagine having to look away from the screen to check where handbrake, or the gearstick was on the screen, and when you look back up, you've collided into a wall.
Touchscreen controls on a FPS are just plain horrible. And in terms of performance, portables will always remain behind dedicated consoles because they need to stay light, and obviously portable. Plus battery life would be dire if they crammed it with cutting edge video cards and processors.
And local multiplayer just would not work, sometimes when I don't want to play online, my friends might come over, and we'll play a 4 player race on Forza, or maybe Call of Duty/Halo.
Plus consoles are cheaper than the iPhone and iPad. (carrier subsidised cost plans don't count in this)
I'm not saying portables with a touchscreen are terrible devices, just that consoles are not going to die. And be replaced by portables. All I see is iOS grabbing a bigger share of the portable Market.

You so fundamentally don't understand the concept of taxes, I had to click other. What you make, after the price you pay to make that money (taxes), is yours to keep. Once you've paid the taxes that were due, the government can not, and should not, be allowed to cause you for forfeit that wealth.
Your fundamental misunderstanding of taxes makes me smile sometimes.
Exactly, taxes are the price you pay for living in a stable society, therefore those who society has allowed to become rich owe some of that back to society in order to give other people the chance to succeed.
And 5P, if people are really able to become wealthy without government providing regulation and a stable, secure environment then why doesn't Somalia have any Billionaires? It's basically your no government paradise.

I think for SL there was a timeframe (4 weeks?) for getting SL for free. Then there was a separate timeframe outside of that for getting SL for $10. I may be wrong, as I did not qualify for either.
This.
If you were within a month of Launch Day, you got it for free. There was a separate time frame that allowed you to get it for $10. Outside of that, you could buy it outright for $30 (if you already had 10.5) or $129 if you needed the box set.
I would assume that 10.7 upgrades will be handled in a similar fashion, but we don't know pricing yet on the full version.

The symptoms have changed, slightly.
I finally got my hands on a different battery, a fresh one, put it in the computer and the light rings lit up yellow and the computer started charging, so it is, apparently capable of charging a battery as long as it sees it.
But... when it reached full charge, instead of turning green, the light shut off.
I swapped out battery again, and yellow light came on, it charged up, but this time, it stays yellow even when the battery is fully charged.
So... it appears to be something with the AC light ring circuit. Since the computer is controlling that (it behaves the same with different power cords, so it's not the power cord), is the light ring control circuit on the DC-in power jack circuit board? Or is it elsewhere?

Personally I would have gotten a g5 (probably the cheapest model) and a cheap-ass LCD, like a Gateway FPD1830 (18.1" - $400).
But that is more expensive, less RAM, etc.
You made a pretty good purchase.
Enjoy your new computer :).

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.

I've noticed that these now don't work with USB DVD drives for the Bootcamp thing. Like you said this is a REAL drag for the Optibay crowd.
But as far as your MS issues go, try using Winclone to make an image of Bootcamp and experiment. Sometimes these things can be inexpicable.

Whether you're a fan of GPS or not, I'm convinced Apple is just laughing themselves silly at every production meeting. I don't know who's responsible, but somehow, when other companies come up with fiarly useful, or at least utilitarian apps and features, Apple just ALWAYS comes out with something just a little bit cooler and little bit more fun.
Useful? Who knows. Half the crap in OS X isn't really "useful" in the real world sense, but it sure is fun!

The photos will be different, but the shutter sound, sounds the same. It seems like it takes the same amount of time to take each photo.
I suspect that a lot of the sound is due to moving the mirror up and down. The D3100 can only take images at 3fps. It is only when you get into shutter times of more than 3/10 sec that the time to take the image is longer than the 'mechanics' of the camera taking the picture. Or look at it another way if you take picutres at 1/1000 and 1/10 the camera still can only take three per second.
All the best
