im hoping this quietly fixes the unresponsive home button issue.
We have 4 iPhones in the family. Two of the four had this issue and Apple exchanged both without a second thought. Take it back.

Are you just making this up as you go along? The lid on the 13" MBA is no thicker than the 11" AND it has thinner bezels. I also fail to see how thinner bezels would have any effect on the keyboard size or the number of USB ports.
Just weight an MBA 13, and figure out why it weighs more and costs more.
And if you shrunk the bezel while still using a standard sized display (same cost), the keyboard would stick out the sides, which would look pretty whacky.

My belief is that if you want to patent something, it has to be tangible. If you are doing nothing but writing patents on something you've never made, sorry bub, you lose out. Make a product and sell it, then your welcome to patent all day.
I'm tired with companies that just have a "business process" patent and think that it's something that they can get away with having. Where is the "product" that you sell to consumers? I don't see you offering your "business process" for sale, since it's your bread and butter, but I digress.
Build something that can be patented or quit filing patents, pretty easy.
In this context, Nokia had some great ideas, patented it, but never made a product that they sold to anyone or used in any of their products. My belief is it's an invalid patent.

I love Navigon. I just wish I could click on an address in Mail and have it open up navi automatically.
Yes I know, it will never happen.
I would love to see Apple take over the maps app though.

What I'll never understand is why you believe some rag rumor, over the fundamentals of common sense. And you push it as if this most "controversial"
rumor is actually what's most likely to happen in the real world.
Or is generating traffic from buzz words all you really care about?:rolleyes:
I'm not pushing any rumor.
- The rumor doesn't contradict loop insight's rumor, as was claimed.
- The site aggregates rumors and in the post we mention that the sourcing of the article is suspect, and that it may even be an April Fools joke.

As "engineers" (their words, not mine) I find it incredulous (ie. B.S.) that they are surprised that 2 MB file of pure ascii text was so large and retained so much information.
Think about that for a second. 2 megs of text.
I currently have a 50 page word file (which contains a ton of formatting) that comes in about 100K.

The image shows a laptop, but why would this be limited to just laptop applications? This would be in interesting way to give that touch screen tablet Mac additional flexibility. This is a really cool idea, but I am going to wait to see how it is executed.

Steve Jobs looks ill.. I am worried about him.
He seems to be grooming others to step up as Keynote presenters should he be unable to do them in the future. He's sharing the stage much more than he used to.

That will instantly be lost as soon as you transfer your old HDD across.
That's silly. I think you should be able to copy just one drive over with the current data on the disc already intact.
Anyway, Sony is planning an 80 GB version of the PS3. Maybe they're going to take the 20 GB model off and put the 60 GB at $549 and have the 80 GB at $599? Who knows when this'll happen. I'm guessing around holiday season.

You got owned, citizenzen ...
Do you think so? Let's review ...
It was iJohnHenry who first proposed that that "many Muslim countries force their mores on visitors"
And many Muslim countries force their mores on visitors.
Show me the laws that force a dress code on foreign visitors.
I have a tendency to not accept broad statements like without some kind of source. So I asked for some form of confirmation. I didn't say it wasn't true, just that I needed some evidence. If "many Muslim countries force" visitors to conform, then it shouldn't be hard to find proof to it.
Anything less is just lazy posting.
Seven hours later Mac'nCheese entered in the discussion with ...
You mean when female troops from other countries are "encouraged" to cover up while serving in Muslim countries?
Again, no source, just assertions made without evidence.
Even so I didn't claim he was wrong, I simply pointed out the difference between "encouragement" and "outlawing" ...
Even if your assertion is true, did you notice that the keyword in your post is "encouraged" and not "outlawed".
If France merely "encouraged" Muslim women to forgo the veil and burqa, I think there's very little I would say against such "encouragement".
Obviously frustrated by the failure of his first point, Mac'nCheese finally did a little research and came up with the evidence to iJohnHenry's assertion made nearly nine hours earlier ...
Some reading for citizenzen:
http://travel.state.gov/travel/cis_pa_tw/cis/cis_1012.html
From the us government travel page, advising visitors to Saudi Arabia that the country is under Islamic law and foreigners have been arrested for not dressing properly.
What's your wise-ass answer to that? I hope it includes a smiley!!!
So bravo! Somebody finally came up with evidence! Evidence that I never denied existed, I just requested that it actually be presented.
Sorry to be so demanding of facts. I do realize how little they mean to some of you. And nice editing of the record to paint a conversation in a way that would make Andrew Breitbart proud. If you ever give up your current job, you should consider giving him a call. :rolleyes:

I can't help but wonder what the folks over at AVID are thinking of the new Final Cut Pro X. They are either terrified, or they have huge smiles on their faces thinking about all the new users they might be picking up this summer.
As for me, I've been sitting on the fence waiting to see what Apple would come out with before switching completely to AVID. After watching the demos, it's looking like I'm sticking with Apple. That is unless they screw this up in the next couple of months.

Okay, as for the sensor - I thought the article was contrasting this iPhone 4 to current production units. Upon reading it again, I see it's contrasting against earlier white designs.
As for the terrible lighting - this I stand by - if I hold my iPhone at this same angle, and even in photos - I do not see the same effect as I do on this unit. Perhaps this is a bad unit - but the last time I saw this poor backlight diffusion was on a cheap third-party replacement screen.
Edit: May that only happens when you photograph an iPhone 4 with a black (and jealous) iPhone 4...

I think this news shouldn't surprise anyone. What I'm more interested in is finding out what the specifics are. How big are the files? How are the encoded? What is Apple's delivery method? What are expected transfer times? What is the resolution? What is the aspect ratio? What will the price per movie be? Is it just the movie, or DVD extras as well? These, to me, are the important questions, not when the service itself will launch.... :cool:
Sadly, I'd bet the answer to most of those (except for price) will be "same as it is already".

I've already sent about 5 reports of no coverage in our on-campus appartments at Cal Poly SLO. I figured I would get in before the millions of messages they're about to get do. Also in the comments I stated how they promised to build a tower to cover our dead spot at the end of last year and how they told me they were going to build a tower at the end of this year. Hopefully this year they will uphold their promise but I seriously doubt it.

Come on people, there have been millions of these things sold over the last year, and you're complaining about a handful of problems you've heard people have?
Think about it, even if you had heard dozens, if not hundreds of problem reports... that is nothing.
If 1,000 systems out of every million were bad, that would be 0.1% (1/10 a percent).
Factor in 10 million units sold, you'd end up with 10,000 problematic systems... and it would still only be 0.1% failure rate (extremely low!)... have you heard or seen 10,000 failure reports? I sure as heck haven't.
It's been said many times in other threads, the people with problems always shout the loudest... if every person who has never had an issue with their 360 posted every few months (which would be ridiculous), it'd be so easy to tell there are less people with problems then without. Just because you know X number of people with problems really isn't saying much.
But hey, if you want a reason not to buy one then you aren't going to listen to anyone who doesn't agree with you, right? Fine by me, it's not my problem... but don't go spreading around the FUD, just because The Internet & Friends convinced you it was true. :P
On a funny side not (Re: 360 is load), my wife and I were in GameStop just yesterday, and she comments "Wow, that PS3 is so loud you can hear it over the entire store" - A 360 and Wii were both running as well, and sure enough... walked over to the PS3 and it was the one kicking out the horrible noise.
My guess is the cooling on a PS3 just isn't enough, so there were extra fans in the kiosk. But I'm not going to say the 360 is quiet, I'd definitely like it to be quieter too. :D

I think its clear that this won't be what the final version will look like, the day/week/month button writing is completely uncentralized, I imagine this is just an interim before they unveil a new type of button design, or maybe more, at MWSF.

Steve goes by Costanza's theory: "Remember, it's not a lie if you believe it."
In his mind, the facts that have been misportrayed are the false ones that he has generated being contradicted by the true ones that the public, media, and third party testers are reporting.

Awesome. So we can overload their network with reports of issues? And yes, it will be overloaded!
I just downloaded and reported 3 issues I had today...I have a feeling I'll submit 3-4 of these a day :(
I'll give to them though...they have taken on more data/traffic then any other carrier. iPhone users...use their phone more, use data way more, download music, apps, gps etc etc...I don't blame them for having network issues under the strain.
I assume that any carrier would/will.
I've had AT&T for 12 years (back when it was Cellular One) and I never had the problems I'm having now...until the iPhone came out. Alas...I do love my iPhone though...and I forgive it for dropping calls and all the other unwanted stuff it does!

cool... will see the inevitable return of the "man-auto-set-on-fire" urban legend... :D :D
