I generally like the blendtec videos but seriously that guy is mental. He should be doing that under a hood and probably have a respirator on to.
Also I don't really appreciate them blending Apple stuff, nor does it seem like a good story for mac rumors unless the plan is to get pissed off at blendtec :D
Although it was pretty cool that you could still see the screen / keyboard on, even after is was partly bent in half / cracked.

I would prefer to see Apple connect with an EVDO carrier... Apple Airport extreme cards with EV-DO?
Thank god they got rid of cingular, or visa versa... TOO SLOOOOW. :D
It would make no sense for Apple to go with a CDMA technology though. GSM is used by almost everyone in the world bar a few markets. With a GSM phone they have the whole European market for phones for example, with a CDMA phone they have a market limited to mainly Verizon and the few other carriers around the world who use CDMA (IIRC, some in S. Korea, some in Brazil and perhaps some other in North and South America).
Apple most likely don't want to have to make loads of different phones, so I'd expect the iPhone to be GSM Quad Band, therefore covering the largests possible market for mobile phones.

I've spent the past 8 hours playing this (I can't believe how fast time flew! I thought maybe 3 hours at the most!) Its an EXCELLENT game so far. I'm pretty sure I'm almost finished with it. The puzzles are a step up difficulty wise and the game splits into many different areas. The game is much longer than the first one.

Because you're buying a game. Not a box for one. The argument could be made, "why is the boxed version more expensive than the download version? That's one expensive useless box!"
Unless Valve is in the business of selling boxes it makes perfect sense.
Not really as the boxed version can be sold on (PS3/360) whereas the Steam version is restricted to the account it was bought on.

pretty similar to the rumors on page 2 (obtained by macrumors directly, but "unverified") except that those rumors also include displays and a core 2 duo in something other than the mac pro.
I'm going to split the difference and say
- leopard
- mac pro
- xserve
- displays
Same as I've been saying for a while now! :p
I think I'm most excited about leopard as I won't be in the market for any hardware for a while now.

Digital magazines could be successful if they allow subscriptions. I would even be ok if the digital sub was a little more than physical since I always loose or destroy the physical magazine.
Part of the blame goes to Apple and their money grubbing ways, in that they want a 30% cut of gross sub $. This makes it far less attractive for publishers to do this. Also, I too would love a unified model, but I am sure Apple would also want a slice of the action here as well.

By the way - I feel like a traitor running 3 (legit) copies of windows for a mac team, Ubuntu is still on some of the disks but not running on anything now. At least I have Mac OSX running on the Mac Pro with maybe another Mac Pro coming next year... sometime...

While I really dont like what you say Im afraid I completely agree, apple has done a great job of challenging windows in the home market, and it seems also the edu market, but the corporate market, apple has a long long way to go!
I think Apple would be all too happy to just own the home and edu markets. If they get back up to 30% of the edu market and can match that in the home market, I think they'd be ecstatic, since their total market share would probably more than double to 10% or more of the overall market.

I kinda can't because if we have our phones on during class, we get the phone taken away.
Oh, I see. Bummer. :( Try hiding it under the desk. Or better still, say you have to go to the restroom. That was always my excuse for any urgent business during a lesson.

This just in: orders will ship in the order they were received despite the 4-5 vs. 3-4 week estimates. Meaning, if you ordered an iPad 2 yesterday & received a 4-5 week ship estimate, you will get yours before someone who just now ordered one and received a 3-4 week estimate.
This also just in: estimates are not exact.

Trying to copy the free Android turn by turn. Apple always playing catch up. No doubt it will be inferior to the Google Maps on android.
always? guess you forgot android copying the entire look & feel of iphone multitouch phones. doh!

Revert Expos� to its behavior prior to 10.6...it's seriously lacking in usability the way it is now. I found a hack to correct it, but I'd rather not have to rely on hacks like that.

You can't drop the price and maintain the quality, champ...
...unless you can turn over a much higher volume. It's unlikely that Apple is in a position to do that at the moment. :(

Maybe, I'm not really sure. To me though, it seems like if the software has to scan you to figure out what part is an arm and a what is a leg, etc, then 2 people might be the max. But again, I really have no clue.
I found this...regarding the kinect sensor.
All sensory information (depth image, color image and audio) is transferred to the host via a USB2.0 interface, with complete timing alignment.
http://www.tomsguide.com/us/project-natal-xbox-360-primesense-motion-control,news-6326.html
So if this is the case, that would mean that processing the scene is up to the either the game developer...or XBox patch software. If the developer has direct access to the feed (as opposed to having to use whatever the XBox software provides) then they can potentially use as many people/objects as they want...given hardware limitations.
Maybe the patch software will initially give devs 2 skeletons so they can work with this to speed up making the first games. But over time, either Xbox engineers can make it more versatile, or devs will figure out different ways to use the sensor.
This is pretty interesting. If the feed spec / algorithms are available or can be reverese engineered, you may see some interesting applications of the Kinect sensor crop up arround the internet like the Wii sensors. Although admittedly, the Kinect, as a vision system, is not as simplistic as the Wii Mote, many hardcore hackers might be able to come up with all sorts of gadget projects.

...snip... They have printed OLED displays on each key which can show images of letters or other icons representing shortcuts/functions that change depending on your active application. ...Here's one of them (http://www.artlebedev.com/everything/optimus).
Nice idea, obviously very customisable, but for repetitive stuff in the hands of an experienced operator...don't you just become a touch typist?

Why should anybody be "dragged into the modern age" simply over how they dress?
Because it's not simple. Don't pretend every woman who wears this crap does so voluntarily.
Don't you value personal freedom?
Yes, and that's why I think this is, on balance, a good law.

I am just curious as to how the roadmap for future iteration of iPhone will go.
If iPhone 5 is late-September early-October, does it mean iPhone 6 will be the same time in 2012, or skip to Summer 2013?
