Are people as outraged by this leak as I am? I can't believe it. He just stole Steve's thunder at a later secret event. This will end up costing Apple the element of surprise and the impact of a special Steve announcement. We've got to punish Lion's Gate somehow. We need to boycott all of their films and show that they cannot mess with Apple. The mothership is under attack! Who's with me? :mad:

is it just me, or is this 20-20 abomination somewhat, "shallow"
Surely that's cos you keep getting tonked in the one-dayers?! ;)
Been catching the match on and off this arvo, but pleased we finally made some headway.
The weather is doing it's best to mix things up! I have to say Wintermute made a good point earlier, the 3rd test was hampered by rain, we could have that urn already in that respect.
However, I'd love for a proper battle like we've seen before, rather than a wash out. Let's see what tomorrow brings...

guys, I think people are so obsessive about the iPhone because the (US) phone market is kind of pathetic. Most of the really good phones you have to purchase unlocked. Has anybody actually played with the half-assed "chocolate" phone? It's horrible and it's still selling.
Apple has the potential to completely tear up the market. None of the carriers are very mac friendly. Using your phone as a modem usually involves some sort of crack, and it's also hard to update firmware since everything is for PC. If apple can do anywhere near what it did with the iPod but with the phone industry......it's over.
In Belgium, it's forbidden to sell the phone hooked to one provider, and prohibiting others, it's actually quite relaxing not having to worry about hidden fees or restrictions when buying a phone>
But on topic, I think there is definitly a market for a phone with a lot of capabilities, and an Apple designed user interface, because there is not one single phone that has a good quality, and is easy to use. People thought the MP3 player market was crowded and saturated before the iPod came out.
I just hope they stop making product that just have an i in front of what it is. I think a lot of people are getting enough of all this iStuff

cant say about the US but where i live the iPhone is kinda losing its image, the market seems to be saturated and people are getting sick of seeing iPhones everywhere. the times where "OMG an iPhone" were the norm r long gone and people r looking more and more elsewhere > android. it's kinda like going shopping at H&M ... "its pretty but i dont buy it bc i know a billion other people who own the same pants"

First, Netflix doesn't work any more on my Macbook pro. It keep crashing and asking me to delete and reinstall Silverlight. When it did that multiple times in one movie, I just stopped using it.
Second, Netflix doesn't work any more on my iPad. The app just stopped working.
Third, when Netflix did work on my iPad, the picture quality was terrible.
So yes, I'm all in favor of Apple launching a competing service. A low cost is hardly a bargain if it doesn't work on any of my devices.

I think you're confusing Macrumors with Engadget. That place is so full of hate I'm surprised it doesn't catch on fire. :rolleyes: Thankfully most people here are either die-hard Apple fans or general lovers of tech who can debate without killing each other. :cool: :apple:

With Vista going to computer manufacturers now, I highly doubt that it will be pushed all the way into the summer. Although it is Microsoft, and this IS Vista, but I still don't think it would happen. MS would release it anyway and a crapload of updates following if necessary.
Chundles lives in Australia (southern hemisphere). So their autumn is our spring and their summer is our winter. So, he is predicting Vista on January 30th like Microsoft's announcement. Leopard should be out by Spring time. Even if Apple hurries, I think it will be March by the time it is out.

Of course this would be pretty cool... but I'm thinking in practical application it will turn out to just be different colored faceplates for the iPhone. :p

Very cool, but I love the contrast of the screen with the blam bezel.
The White iPad 2 is pure butter. Id love to see the iP5 have a similar design (back to the Aluminum backing)

I'd really like to go, not sure if I can though, I get back to school on the 8th, so I'd have to miss a few days, chances are, not gonna happen, I'm begging them!
PS: Thanks for the free passes, I'll register when I am fairly confident I'm going.

As much as I'd like a new macbook or iMac with a 750gb hard disk, I think I'm going to stick with what I've got until 802.11n and HD/Blueray burners are standardised on the mac.
I'd personally like to see a smaller macbook revision, for ultra traveling, possibly with extra securty for the traveler....

Sadly, this recommendation has a lot of merit. I don't know about the UK, but here in the states, the pre-college school system is systemically boring. Hardly a day goes by that my kids are not skilled-drilled and tested so schools can prove they are "teaching" the kids.
Well here in New Zealand you need to get NCEA levels from high school in order to get any job, so studying to get those NCEA levels is pretty important :)

So very true. I am one of those waiting for C2D (snipped)
Another hand raising here as a current Windows user who is holding out for a C2D. I'm dying to lay my hands on a 17" MBP, but will not buy before they go to at least that upgrade.
If it takes much longer I might as well wait until after the first of the year, or change plans and stick myself with another PC. I really, really don't want to do that, but I need a new semi-portable system.

yes, There are lots of reasons why people get bod mods.
I personally dont worry about society, wether I fit in or if I should try to stand apart.... etc There are people who do have that mentality though.
If it makes me happy thats the only reason I do something, Its my life so I dont care what society thinks, I dont worry about social norms, Designer clothes, fancy cars etc, If I like a meterial object I buy it (not caring if its from Goodwill or Nieman Marcus), if I want to pierce myself because I want to accentuate my eyes and brows and if it will make me happy I will.... I live my life by my rules, and dont care about trying to seperate myself from the heard.
I hope you understand what I am getting at.... Im not very wordly
i understand what you are saying, but thats because i live the same way, and if someone cant accept me for who i am, oh well their loss (just glad this new person in my life likes my additions). Piercings and tattoos are not a fad for me, nor are they just simply a form of expression. they are me and who i am. every piercing is different, as is every tattoo, similar maybe.... and i plan on more of both, and i will end up drawing the majority of my tattoos in the end, and they all have significance. the piercings will remain for years to come if i have my way.
i dont do this to fit into a particular crowd, i do it for my own pleasure, and to improve upon myself, to perfect myself, and i dont care what society or anyone else things. i dictate my life.

I'm assuming you're American.
Large parts of the world don't have huge houses, simply due to the fact there is much less land available. Houses are far more expensive, and smaller, in Europe and parts of Aisa (such as Japan), and as such in these environments Kinect simply struggles. People don't live in small houses because they're poor, thank you very much.
It's not a matter of "moving a coffee table" - even when one isn't there, you probably have to move a sofa to try and get the minimum playing space. In the UK, Victorian-era terrace houses are long and narrow which simply doesn't allow for Kinect to fit, ditto for city apartments. Houses here don't have basements, and funnily enough, garages are for cars if you're lucky enough to have one.
I know six people who have bought Kinect. Five of them have had to return the units as they simply cannot find the space, no matter the tricks they try. The sixth is lucky to have a larger than normal living room, and never bought a coffee table. When a product is hitting that level of returns due to what is inherently a design flaw, it's not a good thing. Microsoft should have realised that not everybody is living in a huge house, and that outside of the US smaller houses are the norm, and that Kinect would struggle in these territories.
If a Victorian era house is long and narrow, then you can set it up the long way if you want to play. You're being very funny with the 6 foot space requirements, acting like your house was built for hobbits. If someone who is 6 feet tall can lay down (AKA if you can fit a bed in your house, then you have the space to play.

I I live in Europe (UK) and the law is very clear in that teachers have the power to confiscate items irrespective of its legal status, they also (believe it or not) have the power to search a students bag if they suspect inappropriate or illegal items are being taken on to school premises.
So they did in fact pass the 2011 Education Bill? What a shame...
