My roommate is taking a geography class in college right now. (Just an FYI, he is an older student in his 30's).
His teacher works for google on their maps. He has slipped in class several times saying Apple is working on putting GPS into the iPod. (He, the teacher, knows this because it is what he does full time for Google).
Anyway, this looks like the GPS in iPhoto is not related to the iPod, but eh you never know, iPhoto does work with the iPod in a way now as it is...
Yeah, that makes no sense. I mean, i guess the iPod could be loaded with GPS navigation software, but that's still much less useful than putting it in a device like the iPhone. Plus, in the context of this thread, an iPod can't take pictures, whereas an iPhone almost certainly will be able to.
Probably the professor was was told it's the iPod, which would set constraints on screen size, etc - but actually the GPS is going to be in the iPhone....

I don't have the iPod photo but have 2 iPods, should say my wife has one I have the other. You can decided how iTunes syncs by either saying that all playlist and or library sync or that you freely add and subtract as you wish. I have ours set to sync only our purchased music playlist and another playlist that I add to she also has her own.
I also have the media card reader, works great. Once the photos are transferred you simply attach you iPod to the Mac and iPhoto, if not open, will open up and prompt you to the import option, just like a camera.
From what I have seen, the sync iPhoto pictures works the same as iTunes, you pic what you want to sync.
Hope you get it, I know that I am looking at getting the 40GB color soon.

It works without the Internet. When connected to the non-Internet network, do you see the little WiFi bars in the status menu and/or does the iPod get a proper IP address?
Yes I get the quarter round radiating bars plus a tick to the left of the network name. It actually seems to be staying with it now and not wandering off as it sometimes does.
As for IP address I have gone for a static one same as I did for the router that works - chose a slightly different actual IP address on the same subnet. Everything else the same as for the other router - not that it should matter - gateway, DNS etc should be irrelevant.
And if I ping the subnet it does recognize and ping itself

I agree with you.
Whatever Apple's introduce will be clever and easy to use. Remember that's their core philosophy, That's why I am not worrying too much.
I am skeptical of this patent. I believe Apple did patent the above, but they do that all the time to protect their ideas. That doesn't mean it's going to be the final product like that.
The only thing I can certain say is that the video iPod will be here soon. I hope before xmas. If not then at MWSF.
If its not announced by the week before thanksgiving we won't see it until at least MWSF.

In contrast to the other thread, what things will you ALWAYS cheap out on?
For me its:
--Appliances (I have a $20 blender [it really is a piece of crap and can't cut ice or even power up enough to spin a blender with ice in it, this pretty much enraged me while trying to make a fruit smoothie the other night] and a $25 toaster oven). I would like stainless steel major appliances though.
--Dishes, every time I'm in some store that's selling teacups for $60 I just think "Who the hell needs a $60 teacup?" and then I think about the dollar store/IKEA plain white dishes I have and think to myself how awesome I am for being smart when it comes to buying dishes and silverware, lol.
--Toilet paper, I used to be a 2-ply guy like any other self-respecting individual, until the wife got me on 1-ply and seriously, 2-ply doesn't compare anymore, you can't get as clean with 2-ply as with 1-ply, this is not noticeable until switching to 1-ply, true story.
--Furniture, but make no mistake, I don't buy cheapo Walmart stuff etc. All of the stuff I buy is very nice and very stylish, but I don't need some $2000 dresser or sofa. I also like my furniture to be relatively compact in that I can't stand the enormous bulky eyesore couches/sofas most people have, so more compact stuff I think tends to be cheaper anyway (think like IKEA sofas). My $80 desk is also OK, certainly don't need a $1000 1-ton carved desk. When furniture is cheap, it's easy to deal with when you move and easily replaced for more modern/updated stuff.
--Household cleaners, generics are fine (except detergent)
--Medication, generics are usually fine
--Bath towels
--Haircuts, whether they are $10 or $50 they all look the same when you have really short hair like I do.
I probably sound like a slob who lives in an unimpressive place, but all of my clothes are quite nice/designer, nice watch, nice manbag, nice shoes, and my apartment is very modern and extremely clean, and well-kept. But for the everyday incidentals, I just don't spend much. Other than those necessary consumable things everyone needs, I tend not to be cheap with most stuff--if something isn't quality, I tend not to buy it.

Yes, i know a very quick and easy way to take mp3 files out of a youtube video. All you need is an email.
Go to www.zamzar.com
Then on the website where is says step one, click where it says url.
Copy and paste the url of the youtube video you want to extract the audio from and paste it in the open space for a link. (BE CAREFUL: make sure you delete the "http://" that is already there because you don't want it to look like "http://http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fSFWCY0uxE")
Then where it says step 2, choose mp3, which is a bit more than halfway down the list.
For step 3, enter your email address like it says to.
Then in step 4 click convert and when the window pops up click OK.
Once you get the email go under the blue box where it says "Alternatively click on the following link to download a copy of your converted file:" and click on the link below which should take you to another window.
After you click download in the new window it will download it and it should start playing on itunes or at least will be downloaded onto your computer.
Thanks for the tip. I finished that other project but will save this advice for future need.

As we all know the main focus for mac's is not gaming, however with my Mac pro recently arriving with the 3.2 quad and a 5870 GPU; what kind of gaming performance increase will I notice vs my 2010 iMac i7 with the mobility GPU card in it? I really don't want to disrespect any of you guys by asking this question as this is not why I bought my Mac Pro, and this is not a "gaming" forum, however I do game a little and I could not find any benchmarks that put the two side by side.
Let's use black ops, and maybe crysis as a means for making a comparison and any other key games you can think of, btw all gaimg is done via boot camp with windows 7 ult.

Nothing to do with the Air.... but Firefox 4.0 has a confirmed memory leak that will eventually choke your OS, unless you shut down FF frequently.
Not worth it IMO, until they get this fixed. There is also an issue with tabs and with startup remembering previous sessions.
Haven't had either of those issues. Whatever problems there were they fixed it in 4.01

Yeah, that fixed it. It's a shame the iPod doesn't have more time-zones. You'd think they'd account for Australia! :rolleyes:No problem... :)
Coming from a small European country outside EU, I can understand your frustration of being left out, sometimes (all though we haven't got that particular problem, as we share time zone with e.g. Paris and Berlin... ;))

I'd just arrived at work on the 14th floor of the old New York Telephone building across the street from the North tower of the WTC. Heard engine sounds and a bang. My colleague turned to me and asked "what the hell was that?" to which I responded, quite accurately by my standards, "well, it sounded as if a plane hit a building".
We were then instructed to get out of the building, going down the stairs rather than taking the elevator, and stood out on West Street to see the building ablaze. The buzz on the street was that there was a bomb. A few minutes later we were told to go back inside. We just about managed to return to our office and hook up the TV in our conference room in time to see the second plane hit, with a simultaneous shudder going through our own building.
"That tower's leaning!" exclaimed a co-worker, and that was it... even though the boss wasn't in yet, we all decided we were getting out of there ASAP... well, apart from one colleague who we had to practically drag out as he had a report due that day.
So we got onto one of the last uptown subway trains after the planes hit and were well clear before the towers fell. The rest of my morning was spent walking around midtown Manhattan hearing second-hand tales of the day's further attacks (Pentagon, Pennsylvania, etc), and worrying about what my family (in England) must be thinking, given that they knew I worked right by the WTC.
I remember spending that night on the couch at my sister-in-law's place in Brooklyn (as I couldn't figure out how to get back to Staten Island once I was in midtown) and the news reports were just numbing - at one point they were saying there could've been tens of thousands killed. For a while, it seemed life would just never return to normal. I've never been more happy and relieved to see my wife as I was the next day when she picked me up.
Four years later, we're still exiled from our old building (which I believe was the closest building to Ground Zero that didn't collapse), working from Brooklyn instead, but my company survived and so did everyone I know, so I have to be thankful for that...

I'm freakin sick of the ITMS. :mad:
I love iTunes and my iPod, but purchasing music that can only be put on an iPod is crap. There may be a better player out later which I want to go to and then *poof* my ITMS purchased tracks are crap.
www.allofmp3.com
It's (significantly) cheaper.
It's better.
'Nuff said.
Hmmn, have just tried 3 times to buy a PIN through Alltunes...card declined all 3 times, they SAY. Funny but it works everywhere else, including iTMS.
will be checking my bank balance JUST IN CASE!
So, it's NOT better in my experience.

This is the best I've come across. It's low profile, sturdy, one button controls calls and switching tracks in itunes and best of all, works with thick cases (ie candyshell).

Google ships not a single phone. It provides a free OS (from which it makes little money) to handset makers that sell phones. None of those handset makers sell a phone as popular as the iPhone, and all of them combined do not make as much money doing so. If one is comparing iOS (all devices) to Android (all devices), recent data suggests iOS is the more widely used.

I woke up and turned on the radio to hear an eye-witness describing what had happened. This particular station usually played practical jokes on people in the morning, so I'm hearing this horrific description of a people jumping out of windows and whatnot and waiting for the punch line. Then I got sick of waiting so I left for school. When I got there I told someone that I'd heard this really odd thing on the radio and he told me it was true.
It was quite surreal.

Seems like most people don't want to see the footage ever again. I suppose I understand, as it is very traumatic to watch. I have a CNN DVD that has a bunch of footage from that day and the days following, which my wife and I have watched every year since on 9/11. I imagine we'll pop it in again tonight once the boy has been put to bed.
It's disturbing to see it all again, particularly the people jumping from the upper floors, but I don't ever want to forget how the events of that day made me feel.

Thanks for the help in understanding the Sum of a cube and the push in the right direction. I will start on it tomorrow night.
This is the first assignment that I have to produce my own Top Down Design. The projects before this He would do them on the board and we would copy them down. I'll have to go over my notes on the last projects to get a better handle on it.
Thanks Guys!
