I am glad to see Apple put their product anywhere it can to increase sales and get devices into peoples hands. Not every place has an Apple store, or maybe even a Target or Best Buy close by. Well done Apple!
Yes, and to all the posters here somehow suggesting that Apple is being inconsiderate to their loyal owners who can't get one yet, while adding a new retailer need a reality check.
Do you think someone at RS and Apple just made this deal yesterday? It's much more likely that this has been in the works since long before the iPad 2 launched.

Would you buy a CD MB the day the C2D comes out for $700
No. It isn't worth pinching pennies when it comes to notebooks. I'd gladly pay the extra to get something that runs significantly cooler (which apparently is the case with the new MBPs).

How is this system implemented? As our iPhones are online (unless manually disengaged) 24/7, Apple must be communicating with it to determine whether your iPhone needs an incremental update. As such, the user has to engage the update, correct? It is not automatic?
As I quickly read the article my first (knee jerk) reaction was control and jailbroken iPhones being tracked and harder to use if Apple implements such a feature.

Well.. I called AppleCare and they sent me a box.. The same time the lady told me to update to the new 1.1 Firmware and see if there would be a difference. She said that she would in fact send the box anyway and if the FMC didn't fix it then I needed to ship in.
My MacBook worked great until one day it crashed. AppleCare said it replaced a harddrive when I got it back. That evening... that VERY evening RSS started. What a crock. Never before, but after apple touches it it starts this garbage.
I am writing a dissertation. I am writing a dissertation that needs my portability of a laptop to be successful because of the amount of travel involved in gathering data.
What am I to do??? Well.. I updated the Firmware today. I upgraded everything that Software update had me do and then I put the new firmware on there.. *** Forgot to say that currently I am running at 46deg C. That seems pretty good. The bottom of the computer I don't think that you could cook eggs on like you could have a few weeks ago. something must be working.
So far so good. I have a blank box that I hope that I don't have to send to Apple as my dissertation is on it : ) (don't worry.. i have other copies) Maybe no more RSS this weekend and I will not put my computer in the box. We will see want we?!?!
Hmm.. Saw a good Dell price today.. thinking maybe I should buy one for just my dissertation as it could be more reliable than my current setup.

We need to get developers to use open standards and flash is not!...
...
What we all need to do is educate / demand that web developers / sited eliminate flash and use open standards.
Yeah!!! You forgot the part about world peace and end of hunger....
Personally I do not use sites that require flash for operability - one of my favorite hotel chains "upgraded" their site to a flash based reservation system - it looks great but is slow and un-reliable, - so I stopped staying there and emailed them telling them they lost a customer due to their bad flash based reservation system!
Yeah!!! You against the world! I suppose you also write to fashion magazines, complaining that all their models have perfect, skinny bodies....
But all kidding aside, without Flash, you must be having a pretty poor and limited web experience. Or, you just hang out on the Apple site.... :D

Sometimes the stores that someone wouldn't suspect (or ever shop out) of having something are the ones that those "in the know" can find something.
Just before Christmas I figured my son and daughter were old enough for our first XBox 360. I went to the 4 Best Buys close to my house (Gilbert, AZ) and all pretty much laughed at me, out of stock. I called a guy that I know from a club I'm in that managed a local Walmart. He said of his stock of 12 that he got in the prior week he had only sold 1. Apparently in my town no one shops at Walmart for an Xbox? All I know is I drove down there and sure enough they had a small pile of them with hardly anyone in the electronics department.

I'm not very impressed. Rather disappointing news, isn't it ?
1) Voice control: I barely use it on my 3GS... and never see anyone using it. It's already been implemented for ages in every cellphones (remembering old Siemens GSM of 1999 already had it...) and nobody has been using it. Even more gimmicky than 3D imho... When in public transportation, you are trying to be as discreet as possible, not to shout into your phone/earphones mic. maybe for in-car purposes would voice control be a nice addition but most modern cars already offer similar, maybe superior capabilities (thinking about the Renault Carminat universal bluetooth connectivity kit which is great).
2) LTE: does it exist anywhere outside the US ? seems a tad early to me - and seeing how shy Apple was with 3G, I think we'd better wait a year or two.
What I'd rather like in my future iPhone is:
1) a built-in pico projector (making it the ultimate corporate phone in certain situations... plus a fantastic portable multimedia platform)
2)localized social awareness: discover what music people around you are listening to/what sites they're surfing on, etc (opt-in), would be a nice leap in the social network area (where Apple is a bit stagnating)
LTE will not revolutionize how people use their phones, nor will voice control - I don't see myself talking to my phone, it cannot be quicker than typing & swiping... whereas pico-projection, localized social awareness (orh whatever they may call it)... yummy...
anyway, that was just my 2 cents...

"Randy Ubillos, who did the demo, added more features ..."
Great, That's the guy who "redesigned" iMovie and screwed it up. I'll bet he was partially responsible for the "improved" (sic) iPhoto 11 as well.
I'll reserve judgement until this hits the streets.
Wow, we went a whole hour without this old one popping up again. I feel embarrassed for you.
More likely editing houses will be angry because of the new price point... $299 is much more affordable and makes rental booths seem unnecessary for many productions. Of course there will still be much more intense productions that will keep them in business for a while still.
I don't know, to me Final Cut Suite was always a steal. The 'revolution' started over 10 years ago. Unfortunately, broadcasters still require HDCAM/SR deliveries so rentals aren't necessarily a thing of the past yet. I can't wait for the day we can just deliver a quicktime file.

"...clearly showing his preference for an open system unfettered by reviewers deciding what may and may not be included on the iPhone platform."
I think if you asked most of the population, the vast majority would find it 100% reasonable and appropriate that any retail company, in any business sector, decides what they will or won't sell in their store - be it WalMart, The Gap, Starbucks, or your local corner grocery store. Apples retail store is just that... a retail store --- and the norms of business retail don't go away, to be replaced by a magical la-la land where people get to do whatever they want.

Seriously. What happened to the support for the VZW iPhone? All this talk of fragmentation. Now we have essentially the same phone, on different software generations. What gives? I guess we really are the red-headed step child.
I think that the Verizon iphone was so secretive that the iOS group didn't even know about it... once the VZW iphone was released, the iOS group now has to incorporate the changes...

So here's my question - if they're eliminating the "suite" package and eliminating upgrade pricing aren't they killing the current FCP editors who use all of the other suite apps? Currently FCP 7 charges $299 for the upgrade. So if they're eliminating the upgrade price and I want to upgrade 3 of my systems I have to pay $299 for FCPX and then an additional $700? for the other apps for each system? I've just gone from an upgrade cost of $900 (3 systems) to $3,000!
Please tell me it ain't so!
In my opinion the quote was very vague I think it left open the possibility that the price is $299 for the whole suite, maybe it's just wishful thinking.
Here's the quote - "We've had upgrade pricing, we've had Final Cut Express, we've had Final Cut Studio - so we decided that we wanted to really do away with all of that, we wanted to greatly simplify the pricing structure, make it very very easy for you decide if you want to get a copy of Final Cut Pro. So we've decided to make it available for the amazing price of $299."
I think the mention of all those would imply that all of those are now the $299 price? Thoughts?

I'm sure there are a lot of us who have very wide musical interests. I usually listen to classical in the morning with my coffee and later--well lots of stuff rock, folk, blue grass, jazz, and yes some Beatles as well--it's all music--it's all good. :)
I know- it just seemed that some people in this thread thought a person was a musical infant if he liked The Beatles :)

Run on a G3? How well. I use to have problems with the speed of Panther on my G4 iMac.
Tiger seems to run better than Panther on the G3 iMacs I have at home.
One is a 400mhz G3 with 320mb RAM and it runs fine with Tiger.
But, I have noticed Tiger runs crud� on one of my friends 800mhz G4 iMacs.
How odd. :rolleyes:
The cost of Vista is very comparible to XP (especially at launch). But it is too much for a new verison of Windows. Especially since every reason to upgrade has been stripped out and slated to arrive in a "service pack" sometime later "this decade".

I still wonder where the Airport and Bluetooth antennas are.
They stick out from underneath the case. I'm pretty sure you can see that at some point during the Keynote speech (look for the blue "transmission circles" next to the Mac Pro -- the antenna is at the center of the circles).

"*Removed heavy vehicles from all 4v4 Team Objective gametypes"
Yes, that and the swapping of the Scorpion for a Wraith on Hemorrhage is great. I'm most excited about Rocket Race coming back. I played that gametype the most in Halo 3, so I'm hoping it remains as fun in Reach.
Sometimes I have as much fun taking screenshots as I do just playing the damn game.

I couldn't escape, so I decided to just, shall we say, trade seats with him... in mid air. Not only did I accomplish it, but we were over the water when I kicked him out, so he died in the process. :D

For those hoping for a merom MacBook Pro (like me) on the 12th, I wouldn't hold your breath. Going by previous Apple laptop upgrade cycles, I would expect to see the merom MBP by around the middle of October.
I don't think that we'll be kept waiting quite that long. I don't think Steve will let Dell and other companies put out Core 2 Duos without Apple being close behind.
I do think we'll see a very soon Tuesday or Sept. 12th release. If not, a ton of college going students aren't going to be pleased.

Who knows? Maybe there is a genetic component involved.
I doubt that. I think it's more about widespread anti-intellectualism among blacks, i.e. a cultural thing. This is regardless of social class, btw. More likely than not, a black guy is seen (by his own) as a traitor/sellout if dating white girls, and a phaggot if reading books.
