iOS 5 for the iPad will be out this fall is my guess.
This is why I'm tuning in to WWDC - iOS 5 and hopefully a surprise or two for Lion!! This will be a huge summer for Apple. :D :apple:

Basically they are admitting that Verizon was right about AT&Ts spotty coverage.

Yes, BestBuy has the capability of adding lines, and modifying accounts that have existing foundation accounts attached to them. They just do not have the ability to add new foundation accounts to your account. Does that answer your question?
Yeah. Thank you for the quick response!

I have one that is dropping calls 1/4 of the time. Was at Apple store. An employee there bought a bumper for his. He sounded frustrated over the dropped calls. You fanboys got to come up with something more that people are morons or whining over it. I assure you this issue is quite real.
Out of curiosity did you have a case on your iPhone 4 when you had all of these dropped calls?

Steve needs to use one in an area other than a huge city with great reception. The guy is delusional or a liar.
He uses it in the Bay Area where AT&T sucks and 9 out of 10 people are using an iphone which further degrades the network. I'm sure he knows how bad the problem is.

The day the iPhone was introduced, the Smartphone Market became an iPhone-alike Market, and to produce an iPhone-alike phone, you need access to Apple's patents. That's what Nokia is after, or else it's dead. Making-out with Microsoft doesn't give Nokia everything it needs, and leaves it open to litigation: they say that attack is the best form of defence, so Nokia is just doing what it thinks it needs to do to survive.
I have relatives living in various 3rd-world countries, and even the less-well-off wouldn't buy a 3GS, but they are willing to pay top dollar (or the local eq) for the iPhone4.
Tanker-loads of Nokia faithful are dumping their Nokia phones for iPhones and Blackberrys -- even Android has a long fight ahead of it in these (non-geek/techy) markets.
Any credibility you had went out the window when you blatantly revealed your bias in the first sentence.

Move is also pricey, but has the slight advantage of being a scalable system.
Not really scalable. You need a game, you need the camera + move controller. And to be honest you need the nunchuck if you want to play something like resi-evil as it's impossible to do so holding standard controller in one hand.
Kinect also feels more of a quality product compared to my glowing dildo controller and it'sy plastic camera. The way move is motorised and moves itself to get you in shot - the bulk and weight of the device actually do scream of genuine quality. I was taken back by it as I was expecting Toy and got high tech gadget.
But you are right it's down to games. Best game on Move for me is Tumble (and because it's 3D on top of move enabled means it really feels different even if the premise is so simple)...
At least from my own experience I can say Kinect launch games are certainly more tailored to the device initially, but for me the only game I can see myself playing beyond parties is Dance Central and that's mostly to keep fit.
I can't see any hardcore games for it - but you never know.

Nope, your device is no longer supported by apple.
That's not a good argument. You forget that this is not a feature. It's a matter of privacy and how iOS uses your data.
So, to me, Apple must give a fix to 3G users too. They can send iPhone 3G users a 4.2.2 for example.
No longer supported means never patched or upgraded again no matter the reason.

I'm not sure what part of my post implies that I think this issue is of no concern. I am skeptical, however, that the poster I was replying to will actually find many "fun" ways to exploit it.I'm sorry for my mistaken interpretation.
Perhaps we should help Antares by thinking of new and inventive ways to use this tracking ability. They don't have to be evil purposes.
For example, it would come in handy when planning a surprise party. "The sensor at the gate has been tripped - everybody needs to take their hiding places!"
Or it could be used to track shoes stolen at the gym. When you come running out of the building saying "which way did the thief go?", somebody who routinely tracks everyone near that building would be able to say "they went thataway!"
Or how 'bout a customer recognition system at the shoe store? When a customer walks in wearing transmitting Nikes, the store clerk can check if they are a repeat customer, see a display of their name, and say "Hi, Mr. Smith. Welcome back!" with a big smile. That could help make another sale. If their shoe ID wasn't already in the computer when the customer made a purchase, they would note it for the next time.

New York – A lawless atmosphere often follows natural disasters. How has Japan managed to maintain order in the aftermath of last week's earthquake and tsunami?
The chaos and theft that have followed many earthquakes, hurricanes and tsunamis have been noticeably absent in the wake of Japan's 8.9-magnitude quake. Instead, people have formed long, orderly lines outside grocery stores, where employees try to fairly distribute limited supplies of food and water. "Looting simply does not take place in Japan," says Gregory Pflugfelder, an expert in Japanese culture at Columbia University, as quoted by CNN. "I'm not even sure if there's a word for it that is as clear in its implications as when we hear 'looting.'" How has Japan managed to avoid this common after-effect of disaster? (Watch an Al Jazeera report about the wreckage)
Discipline, discipline, discipline: "The Japanese are now reaping the fruits of having been taught, and drilled in, discipline and resilience since childhood," says Federico D. Pasqual Jr. at The Philippine Star. In grade school, lunch is free, but often "spartan," and kids learn to expect and deal with lean times. This unfathomable calamity is one of those times, and "the instilling of that value or attitude seems to be paying off."
"Japanese discipline rules despite disaster"
The Japanese are no strangers to hardship: The easy answer is that the "legendary politeness" of the Japanese people is simply shining through, says Thomas Lifson at The American Thinker, but that's only part of what's happening. Japanese society has been honed over generations into a system "capable of ensuring order and good behavior." The country's "vast reservoir of social strength" carried it out of "the devastation of World War II," and, compared to that, "even the massive problems currently afflicting it" are "relatively small."
"Why the Japanese aren't looting"
Japan isn't superior, just different: Japanese people are "taught that conformity and consensus are virtues," says James Picht at The Washington Times. To Americans, who prize individualism, "those virtues sound almost offensive." In normal times, "concerns about appearance and obligation" may be stifling, but in adversity they may be what trumps "the urge to smash and grab." Japanese culture isn't "superior," it's just "well suited to maintaining public order immediately after a major disaster."yahoo news (http://news.yahoo.com/s/theweek/213154;_ylt=Aier3ZBx0et3Y1K_YS0GBTFvaA8F;_ylu=X3oDMTE3N240aWVoBHBvcwM4BHNlYwN5bl90b21ic3RvbmUEc2xrA2 Z1bGxuYnNwc3Rvcg--)

I can. The iPod halo doesn't work without going hand in hand with the Apple Stores. If people are buying their iPods from shops that don't stock Macs, their opinions on Macs never change. If they buy an iPod from an Apple Store and see Macs all around doing everything their Windows computer can do and more, they become more open to buying a Mac next time a computer purchase comes round.
Apple need to open more international Stores if they want the worldwide share to increase.
Amen to that. The Mac buying experience here in Aus is exactly as you describe. 99% of the iPods bought are from department stores or tech shops - not a Mac in sight.
Bring on the Apple Store Sydney - damn it would be good. Such an amazing place to put a flagship store in one of the most beautiful cities in the world.

Bernie Ecclestone has just bought out an authorised biography that he fully cooperated on and he is in the best of health, works full time and travels to every F1 race so I would not write off Jobs on the basis of a book
Oh, I'm not writing him off. I hope he sticks around for a long time.
I think it is a good sign.
It is an official biography which means he will spend the next few months co-operating, telling the author his life story so if he was a man on his last legs he wouldn't have the energy or the health to spend the next year reciting every moment of his life.
I think it may be a sign he will not return full time to Apple but I think he has a few years yet in him
When Robert Jordan, author of The Wheel of Time fantasy/adventure series of novels was told he would die before he could finish the 12th and final book in his 21-years-in-the-making series, he spent a much of his time and energy during his final two years compiling notes and telling his wife and the author who'd be hired to finish the series on how all of the plotlines should be resolved. And Christopher Hitchens, after being diagnosed with esophogeal cancer, has continued to work as much as his health permits him to because he finds value in doing so.
For those who want to read into this news one way or the other, I think it comes down to this: If Jobs considers his legacy to be of the utmost importance, then he could make this a top priority if given a terminal diagnosis. If he considers other things � family, friends, his pet yorkie, his $1 nature/nurture wager with Bill Gates � more important, he'd arrange to make them a priority.
The "Why now?" question can be answered one of two ways:
1. He's dying.
2. He's doing OK and has time to do so while on leave, so why not.
As long as we don't know the answer, this news just gives us something else to speculate about.

As a music teacher, I think it would be a great development, but unfortunately, I don't think it would be beneficial to anybody but "Garage Bandies", and even then, I don't think it would be very useful. I would still need the full function of my regular keyboard while doing these other things.
I can't imagine have something that would truly be configurable and useful. I'm sure it would work with Garage Band and if it worked for another program, then great. The keyboard would have to be compatible with Finale and Sibelius if it was going to make an impact on the music education or composition world.
I think this is just another PATENT... don't hold your breath for this one.

in fact, part of me knows i'm dreaming when i plan on an 11".
aside from the amazing tininess, the lower price has its power too.
but the difference in price isn't really enough to weigh in much on a long term purchase. and, in fact, i don't plan on travelling much with my next mac. (not that i wouldn't enjoy a small size around the house.)
i think the 16:9 aspect ratio is one of the worst things about the 11". it seems really crippling on such a small screen/resolution. its like walking around with your eyes half closed and constantly having to move your head up and down.
currently, the power on the 11" is a no go for my needs, or else i would have already given it a chance, but i hope the update will improve things.
when it comes time to buy, i'll have to think hard, and be realistic. the 11" is a beautiful little creature, and it works well for some. for many, as we're seeing in this thread, the undeniable charm of this machine is overruled by the practical superiority of the 13"; that's assuming ultra-portability isn't the main priority.
i'll certainly keep your comments in mind, though i had already thought of a lot of what's been said, and agree.
is there a reason we're not hearing much from the 11" clan?

Because the press can latch onto anything that makes someone look bad and hammer on despite facts. The press do not have the same goals as Apple does - they want to sell a story. Apple is trying to sell a phone. If the press can sell a story that reveals a failure out of a successful company and get viewers in the process they will do it. The fact is, the media is not always limited by the facts. They sell controversy.
And that "fact" may not be an actual fact. The world is much larger than your own personal perception of it. This is the world that companies play in.
He can very well say that if people are making false assumptions about things.
But it is not a "false assumption" for people to say, "when my hand, my finger, my face, etc. come into contact with this antenna, the signal drops." That is neither false, nor an assumption. It happens, I can replicate it. So can many other people.
Do I know the reason for it? No. I have no idea the reason for it. I don't need to know the reason for it. I just know that it happens.

No one but me seems to be worried that the viewer is essentially dead. I'll be very interested to see how actual editing works on this thing -- none of this addresses the process of selecting a clip, setting ins and outs, and getting it onto the timeline. All of this is about stuff that's already on the timeline, and that's where Apple seems to be suggesting you do the majority of your editing.
That doesn't seem very... precise. I love Final Cut, but 'precision editing' (aka Trim Mode in Avid) doesn't replace knowing what you're picking before you place it into your cut. Not to mention editing to music is going to be a pain when everything is slipping around all over the place...
I remain very optimistic. Looks like it's going to be a great piece of software. But it will be very interesting to see how these editing basics work within it.
