@OP, this is very sad. I have been with the facebook app forever. Infact I use it more often than my PC! I hope I get push notifications though...it's a shame. The fb app was the first one I got and it's without a doubt my most used app next to safari if you can consider safari an app.
*tears* that was beautiful...
Thank you! I'm glad you liked my post. Actually I think it's the best, most structured thought and post on any forum I've ever made. Was studying like crazy for an interview and did very well ~ bumped up to the last final interview today.
I agree that the Facebook app is incredibly well designed between form and function - and I hope more follow through.

Yup, most of the waste is for military technology and planes like the raptor that were built for cold-war style fighting. That era is dead. No offense intended, but that poster clearly has NO IDEA what the US uses its ridiculously large military budget for.
Hey I love the F-22 Raptor.
Even though air-air combat is hardly seen today, it doesn't mean we should abandon fighter jets. I agree that we don't need as many Raptors right now so building up our fleet of them is wasteful. But, we can't be a reactive military in the sense of our equipment. This isn't WWII anymore where a new plane can be developed within a few years. It takes far longer to develop a new fighter jet. So the Raptor is a necessary plane. We just don't need a sizable fleet of them right now.

Is there a keyboard shortcut to go to the search part of iTunes? I have to click it with my mouse, and I try to minimize mouse usage... if I could find a key combo for it, that'd be great...

they buy foxconn and unmarked ASUS boards. ASUS leads in motherboard sells for a reason.
Again, citation needed. Apple doesn't even use ATX or mATX boards, all their logic boards are custom shaped and they are designed by Apple and manufactured by Foxconn.

I actually like the idea of wireless communication on iPods. They could do it exactly like "sharing"in iTunes. Imagine you sitting somewhere in the underground or bus, taking out your iPod, checking "other iPods" on the main menu, browsing through the playlist and thinking: "hey, this guy/girl has a good music taste". You could see what she/he's listening to ("now playing") and listen to it. And if you see the other person rocking his head to the same song you're hearing, you know it's the right one. And if this person happens to share it's profile (contact information), you can get the phone number etc...
That sounds like it makes more sense than Zuneing a song. Instead of somebody asking "do you want to listen to this song" and maybe the person is annoyingly persistent about you listening to it to the point where you want to clock him one for not leaving you alone, the person can look on another person's iPod himself if he so desires and if the other guy has sharing on. If Apple makes iPod sharing exactly the same as iTunes sharing, and figures out a way to keep the battery life up, then that's what people would want to get.

some people just want an ipod for listening to music.
not every apple user in the world needs all that iOS stuff.
i'm really hoping for an ultimate classic model, but i'm being a bit hopeless.
meantime I just bought a used 4g ipod classic 20gb for 30� (40$), it's wonderful :)

Maybe they will feature the Macbook Air Revision this year ;)
The Macbook Air got an event presentation in Octobre, it's not getting another event spot for what will be a spec bump. It's getting a silent update next.
Mac hardware has not really gotten any keynote time in the last few years. It's mostly been silent updates, even the Mac Mini redesign just showed up one morning.
So these guys pay $1000 to NOT see a keynote??
I'd wager the people paying 1000$ for WWDC don't do it for the keynote (hint, developers going to developer workshops). The keynote is just icing.

Did Apple buy out whatever company made Cover Flow? If not, that's fairly shady of them. They didn't even bother to change the name.

I'm sure it'll be $999 full, or $299 upgrade for the full studio. At least I hope so. Here I stand, cash in hand!
Currently the Mac App Store has no way of offering an upgrade to existing Mac software. I don't see that changing.
I suspect that all these apps will be stripped of their sample media. They're all quite small without them. Perhaps Apple will sell those files separately on their own on DVDs?
Why am I getting such bitter responses from people who seem to agree with my point?
Because you made a post that claimed our editing skills have nothing to do with creativiy or experience, but simply that 'knowing the software' is the only advangate we have.
Telling people that they're useless at their jobs is gonna make people bitter.
I don't feel pissy about this, but you basically told me that I really should be because I'm actually useless and only Final Cut's complexity has been making me appear smart, when in fact I was not.

Microsoft surely want to go for the easy-to-use appeal, but with just so many upgrade options, people are going to be confused from the onset. I really should apply for a Microsoft marketing position, I could take the company places (although it'd compete with the superior OS, i could make a lot of money in the mean time :p)

I sure hope my college gives out free upgrades like they did with XP Pro, because $239 is a LOT to spend on an OS!:eek:
(and no, after the DLhell from doing an upgrade from 98 to XP, I would never go the upgrade route again)

Apple won't sell a suite (there are no suites in the App Store). Look at iWork - just individual apps for purchase. They'll probably charge $299 for FCP and $99/each for the other apps, or have it all rolled up into Final Cut Pro.
I just wonder if there is any upgrade pricing strategy. No matter what - $299 is A STEAL!

can you imagine how annoying the iOS notification pop-ups would be if they jumped out and smacked you in the nose.

True, but at the same time there two things to consider. A lot better battery life and brighter screen. Those are the two positives of having OLEDs in the first place. True it might just be a rumor, but I guess we'll find out when we get these new ipods. (OLEDS can do pure black)
They're not using OLED screens. From the iPod nano tech specs:

It's definitely just a regular LCD screen.

it seems that there is no longer an option for the "matte" screen, only the glossy one.
also, and this is a guess, the new airport cards are the same as the pre-n ones found in recent MBPs and iMacs.

At this point, I hope they split the iPod line into iPods (music / video) and iBooks (music, ebooks).
I agree that a split might be in order, but I'd have to disagree on that split. If a split makes sense (and i'd have to see potential products to commit one way or the other), it should be between iPods (music) and multi-media pods (ebooks, video, and no reason to get rid of music, so leave it in). video and reading both require looking at the screen and less frequent input, and therfore would work well with a big screened, controls on back or sides style device. But if my ipod could fit in the credit card slot of my wallet and somehow still be able to be controlled, I'd buy it and put it there.

Most people will probably be in the Heather Mills camp and give an enthusiastic, Hell, no!
My admiration of The Beatles has faded over time, and I suspect that I am not alone. Nevertheless, I hope that Apple can work this deal out so that those who still care can get access to their favorite music on the best device out there.

They make cars in the US, and domestic cars are typically less expensive than foreign ones. This argument really doesn't fly.
But what's the difference in cost of shipping a car versus an iPhone across the Pacific?
