I really like it. It's almost original ipod retro...
It's really too bad they launched 10 months after.

i wonder how much apple pays to assemble these? one would think it's cheaper to put a tower or something similar together than an all in one
Since when does Apple try to lower prices by making something less elegant and appealing to a wide audience? Price is no restrictor (compared to others)!!! :)

Well, for as little as has changed from 10.4 to 10.5, I'd put my bets on vista having more bugs.
is there somewhere in vegas a bet going who's first? vista or leopard? and who has more bugs at release day?

I agree w/ the pricing. I bought all the SNL commercial skits as the whole set, which cost maybe $.40 each. That's pretty good in my opinion. Maybe have commercials/skits/shorts for $.99, TV episodes for $1.99 and full length movies for $9.99 or something. Or maybe subscription would be good for movies b/c how often do you actually watch any specific movie?
I also agree w/ the quality of movies. I'd like it if you got 2 versions of the movies: iPod size and TV/computer montor sized so that each looks good on their respective screens. If/when Apple delivers a whole screen video iPod, the resolution would probably (and better) be better than the current iPod which might mean higher quality videos. We wouldn't know until Apple releases it.

what does "(MVNO) on Cingular's network" mean ? In my area, Cingular absolutely STINKS.. even the city council called in Cingular reps to #$@# them out. It's been absolutely terrible since the AT&T/Cingular buyout.
I've since switched to Verizon which has a great network in our area anyway.. but I hate the phones.

It basically means they rent out Cingular's network and resell Cingular's service under Apple's name. And since as you said, Cingular sucks horribly, I hope Apple doesn't MVNO with them.

Today I came down off the 11" high a little bit .... I still have access to the 11" in our office so I decided to work on it again today.
I started the day working on a small text only instruction manual for a product, then I took a few photo's with my camera, edited them and inserted the into the manual.
Two things I noticed:
1. The lack of vertical screen real estate, it felt cramped, compared to the 13" too much scrolling required.
2. No SD slot ... Lucky I remembered where my SD/USB adapter was, that's an easy solution. Though it is an extra step and with the adapter it can't be plugged into either usb port if I want the power cord or ACD display plugged in, adapter is too wide, so I'd also have to carry a usb hub as well.
Half way through all this I switched over to my 13" Air and continued working. It was much better, the screen seemed huge after using the 11" for few hours straight.
For typing and editing long documents in word and/or doing light photo editing a few or more hours at a time in my experience yes the 13" is quite a bit better to work on. Actually I'd say it's a lot better.
With the 13" I found the screen is large enough so that you don't really think about it or feel cramped, even compared to the 15" I found the 13" was fine.
With the 11" today I was thinking man, I need to plug into an external monitor, or this kind of work needs a 15/17" screen ... I was doubtful the 13" would be that much better ... I was writing and scrolling though a lot of paragraphs at the time...
For fun I took the 13" and started working on it, to my pleasant surprise the difference was huge, for me it is the sweet spot.
So I'm sticking with my original plan to have the 13" as my main machine, it's a relief :) I could own both I can't justify that and I also think I have a better frame of mind when using one main machine, seem more organized.
I'm going to carry it everywhere too, just as if it was the 11" Air and why not the 13" isn't much larger than a legal pad of paper...
That's my experience... so far.
...or jump back on the 11" tomorrow and change your mind again:p
I went thru the same thing and decided to settle on an 11" MBA when a good refresh happens...

I had the same problem exactly after the latest jailbreak.
Me too! I'm pretty sure it is an issue with the jailbreak, not 4.3.2.

i cant wait for the 6G iPod!
My 4G iPod has, for quite a while, been used as an external drive, since the screen is completely gone (i removed it after it shattered) and doesnt work for playing music.... i still love it though :)

It was the number 1 selling phone in the world in 2010. In the US in the last quarter the iPhone was the #1 and #2 selling phone. I am not saying smartphone and I am not making a mistake. If you see a person who purchased a mobile phone in the last year, the chances are it is an iPhone.
You see more iPhones then you see of anything else because there are more iPhones then anything else.
According to the IDC results, Apple have a 2.8% market share, that means 1 in 36.
There aren't more iPhones than anything else.
You're making a lot mistakes.

I'm inclined to believe they're real, and I like them :) Expos� for Safari tabs? It's like they read my mind. I hope they're real come Monday.
A lot of the features/upgrades mentioned seem pretty good. Here's hoping some of this is right.

An autobiography?
I'd much rather read a Jobs biography and Apple history told by his employees.
I think there's a ton of hidden history and unsung heroes who will remain anonymous as long as Jobs is alive.
It's not an autobiography.
If you want insider info thats highly interesting, check out folklore.org. It's only the first few years of apple, but the stories are fascinating.

My school is filled with eMac G4s. Fastest one you can find in my school is 1.25 ghz. Not only are those machines slow, have no ram, they are also running under a SLOW server. So you can see why nobody likes Mac at my school.
That is the same deal at my school! It's a shame our schools are "mac ghetto". :p

Great news I guess...
But the "Ships: 2-3 weeks" is really lame for those of us living outside the U.S. Here in Norway the iPad 2 release was delayed two and a half week compared to the US, and while Apple shipped out to US customers the same day we have to wait some 2-3 additional weeks. Making it a total of 4-5 weeks. :(
Really pisses me off that Apple do not treat customers on all their markets equally. Bad policy!

I guess I'll be pre-ordering one of these tomorrow since my 360 is still MIA. Gives the cops a month to track it down. If I don't have my old one back by then, I'll grab the Elite.
Doesn't seem that bad a deal since it comes with an HDMI cable and the new 120 gig HD will retail for $179. The black color will also match most of my electronics (except for the Wii).

I agree with all of that except the greed part. Yes, it was wrong of them to leak this information, but I think the assumption that it was down to greed may be wrong. There's a big chance that the people who leaked these secrets are living in poverty, and it may have been out of desperation to support their families that they took the money, not just to get a bit more money for a nice holiday.
As much as you may like to think so, two wrongs don't make a right.
