If it's shipping in June, even June 30, how can it not be near final form? I mean when a developer tells me s/w is "nowhere near final form" I'm thinking early beta at best. But 2.5 months from release (assume June 30) shouldn't it be in the bug testing phases and everything else locked up?
Because the version that was showed last night isn't even the most up-to-date. It has been said that they have already re-worked a lot of things that aren't in the latest version. That was probably just a stable version they got out the door for a preview.
I don't know how much they're going to fit in the next few months, but we'll see.

Will the keynote be streamed live?
No, it will most likely be shown on apples sight 2 hours after its ending however MR will keep up with the details of the event.

Why on earth does it make any sense to discuss the high likelihood of blacks (as opposed to whites) to get charged when we don't know the respective likelihood of committing the crime? As far as I can see, there is nothing that supports your theory about the statistics making things look worse than reality.
Charging decisions are made by people, including police and prosecutors. A discussion about the likelihood of committing a crime is only about claims about racial differences. I'm not aware of any legitimate study that any race is more or less likely to commit crimes.
Yes, I know that some places (e.g. Texas), black people are provided with retarded attourneys who show up intoxicated in court - if showing up at all. As a former public defender I will respond on behalf of all the court appointed attornies out there. Bite me. You have no clue what you are talking about. If I ever need a criminal defense attorney, my first call will be to the local public defender. If they have time, they are the best person to hire. If not, they know better than anyone who to hire and what to expect.

In the end, it is all marketing... which is the case with most of Apple's products. They have been selling PC hardware now for years at a higher price than their competitors. Windows 7 isn't any worse (or better) than MacOS for browsing the web or checking email..... so its not the OS that is influencing soccer moms and emo kids to buy Mac either.

I don�t want Flash banner ads crashing my phone and slowing my connection.
Sorry to single you out, but I'm sick of posts like this for one reason - Apple would not have flash on the iPhone WITHOUT AN OPTION TO TURN IT OFF. In fact that'd likely be the default and I'd have it set that way until the times I want to see streaming videos. So what exactly is the problem here?

Forgot to mention this was the first shoot with my new speedlight. Decided to get one rather than upgrade to a fullframe (few more months :) ). Still loving this little Rebel XS.

Steve is smooth, and he gets the point.
There is nothing more to ruin the moment, whether it be with a pretty girl, or with someone you are having a friendly convesation with, than to start fumbling with MENUS. The spontanity is lost once 2 people need to remove their Zunes from their pockets, go through a few menus, and then send a song over wireless. THEN listen to it. ALONE.
Wireless will come on iPod when its good and ready. It isnt right now.
motulist: you are right on cue. You just described what will be the real Zune experience.
Actually, the whole thing kind of reminds me of the whole internet thing where we had that Push technology. What was that stupid application that Windows users ran?
http://www.dbmsmag.com/9703d02.html
Anyhow, Zune is like that. You have to push it to someone. The better idea would be to have people be able to "open up" their Zunes (or iPods), and people could look around on their Zune (or iPod) and see what people are listening to around them. And if they like it, then grab it and let them play it for X amount of times or days. More of a PULL technology.
Still, just sharing earbuds is more social, but if you had broadcasting on an iPod or Zune, that would make more sense, at least to me....

I have to descent from the mass and say I was not impressed by the Keynote. What the hell is with Safari still having the brushed metal interface, as well as the finder, etc...
I thought they were finally going to get rid of that and get some consistency in their GUI. :mad:
Overall, I am much more interested in the developers. When is OS X going to be more than a different OS and get some key native applications? Apple continues to lead the show, as they should, but they should take a hint from Microsoft and promote their developers more. Like it or not, it's not Apple, but ultimately their developers that will grow the platform.
Steve really should have pressed the developers to commit on stage to release dates...if that was possible. Microsoft should have been present to provide some information in regards to the next version of Office and its time frame for release.

This is complete bullcrap, people. Over the air updates will come, but over WiFi. Doing this over 3G makes no sense.
Haha, yes... When I typed my reply above, I didn't even consider 3G. Come on guys... LOL :D
This will obviously be intended for WLAN's. Apple doesn't even do *FaceTime* over 3G.

The sort of money you put down on a Mac you shouldn't expect anything less than USB 3.0 from here on out. Core 2 Duo in 2010 leaves a lot to be desired.
This is pretty academic, since you've always paid a premium for the Apple logo. Rarely does a Mac laptop have cutting edge hardware across the board (see the graphics cards in laptops for an example of something that seems always a generation or more behind). The sad reality is that even though you're right, they'll continue to sell those laptops at a prodigious rate. Most people don't care about technical specs as much as they do the overall user experience.

So lets see, I just bought a new mac book however I really don't like the built in antenna for some unknown reason and I go to walmart and buy an external card not made by apple. I then go the airport, where I'm hacked and my life is ruined there is no going back. Riiiiiiiiight.
What a crock, the odds of someone getting hacked is about .1% or less. What gets headlines? A Mac getting hacked not windows who cares. These guys are tools, and I love the links to the ads & the ad in the video they make you watch. Nice touch, way to make money off of Apples good name.

Britain is very class based, and is probably racist too. Black people here are generally poor and don't do particularly well at school as well.
It's Highly exaggerated the racism amongst Brits, just go to Italy or Spain or eastern Europe where racism against Blacks and non Whites is truly visible. In fact, I actually believe Britain is one of the very few countries that welcomes Black people as well as they do.
By the way, isn't it quite ironical how little racism against whites is highlighted? For example, I know in western Africa They don't particular welcome white people, Which is why many white French who live there have been killed or attacked.

La-dee-frickin'-da. I still have an iPhone 3G, and I'm not eligible for an upgrade until the end of April. So, as I see it, here are my options:
1) Upgrade in April to tech that's already a year old.
2) Hold on to a phone that is slower than cold molasses for another 6-8 mos., with the POSSIBILITY of a new, faster, and better phone.
3) Move to Android (perhaps the Motorola Atrix) and send the iPhone, Apple, and their seemingly academic product refresh cycles packing.
I have been, in my past, an Apple apologist; I own both a Macbook and an iPad, and love them both. They have the right to release their products when they want. But for some reason, Apple's decision to mix-up their refreshment cycles NOW burns me. I have been looking forward--for once--to upgrading my device at around the time the newest iPhone hits the market, and when I finally get the chance to do it, Apple (potentially) shifts the cycle. Not cool with me.
So, even though I love iOs, I may jump to Android for a couple of years, just to check it out.
You're right. How insensitive of them to not base their business decisions on your upgrade cycle. No, wait. That's ridiculous. Never mind.
If the reports are to be believed, if they were to release iPhone 5 in June it wouldn't have LTE. You'd just be getting a slightly upgraded version of the 4. Wouldn't you rather wait another 4 months and get something much more future-proof?

Over-the-air updates over the cellular network is a fine idea, but it's just not that important. That's not really a capability I value at all. Nice, but so what?
What Apple should have done a long time ago is made it possible to update and sync iDevices over WiFi. There is enough bandwidth on WiFi to do all of that just fine. And there is no technical reason it can't be done.
Seriously, why the heck, when I'm at home on my WiFi network (Apple gear too, btw) do I need to connect my iPhone to my computer with a stupid USB cable? If I want to install an iOS patch or simply add a couple of songs from my iTunes library, I should be able to do it while I'm sitting on the couch, or at the dinner table. Having to use a cable is sooooo 5 years ago.

IMHO, 3D is the crappiest piece of technology since a long time...
3D movies are blurrier than regular HD non-3D movies, they give headaches
and 3D on the new portable Nintendo 3DS is kind of lame
i really don't want Apple to fall into this kind of ****** trend, just because it's a trend
it seems to me that manufacturers are not giving the choice of the consumer anymore: what if people don't want 3D devices ?
we will probably lose 1 or 2 years during which companies will lose money because their products will be failures until they'll start to understand they should probe the market before releasing unwanted piece of crap/tech
i will probably buy the ipad 2 soon, because if the rumor comes true, then i will totally deny the ipad 3(D)

Just my luck I was gona take my macbook in for RSD tomorrow to get the heatsink replaced and now they come out with this fix. There is defiantly something wrong with the hardware though(i believe the heatsink has burned through some of the wires) besides the random shutdown when my system is at idle my fans will kick in suddenly at full speed then run for about a minute that fast or sometimes cut out completely then start up again. Something that it never did before rsd developed.
I bet if i take it in tomorrow they will just tell me to apply this update which does nothing to solve the damage that has already been done to my macbook. My guess this is a fix apple has done to get them out of the 1 year warranty period were the macbook will then develop further hardware problems. Then you will have to pay out of pocket to get it fixed unless you buy apple care. Also this temporary patch helps them sell more apple care subscriptions.
All i can say is i better not have hardware issues after my year is up or I'm done with apple :(
If you look at Apple's history with out of warranty repairs, you will find that this is not the case. Apple has done many free repairs of out of warranty products with faulty parts, for example, faulty eMac logic boards.
If there is a widespread problem with faulty hardware, Apple will take care of it.

You can 4~5 fingers swipe left and right to switch to another app or swipe up and down to open up and close down the multitasking bar, and finally you can pinch in using 4~5 fingers to go to the home screen.
Especially, I love the swipe left/right function. You can switch between apps really quickly. I think that is the real multitasking.
UPDATE : There's an video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jxVd1jDc_Y4) for that.
UPDATE 2 : The gestures work on both iPad and iPad 2.
For your information, each action can be done with either 4 or 5 fingers. The results are same. This means, you cannot use each for the different actions. (and you cannot define the actions. they are fixed by Apple, Inc.)
The answer for your last question is no, you don't have to re-sync all your data, music, photos and apps. The iPad doesn't loose any data during the update, so don't worry.
how do I turn it on? I don't seem to be able to see multitouch gestures in the gerneal tab (ipad2 + 4.3.1)

I have almost been t-boned by a compact car running a red light so what is the difference? Bad drivers are bad drivers no matter what they are driving. I drive an SUV, however it is a Ford Escape so it weighs about the same as any ordinary mid-sized sedan. I just like sitting higher and having 4WD with some ground clearance because I live in snow country. The fuel economy is about the same as any AWD mid-sized sedan and little high MPG compact cars are worthless here in the Black Hills from about November to April. Let people drive what they want to drive and don't force them into what you think they should drive.
Quite obviously you are not the target audience in your Ford Escape.
The original conversation was in reference to someone who drove a V10 Excursion. A vehicle that weighs 8,000lbs.
