WOW!!!! 8 megapixe?!!!!!!! i remember like 5 years ago when i bought a 200$ camera and it was 6 megapixels and it was considered amazing and here is the iphone with a 8!!! ITS CRAZZZYYY:confused:
It is crazy, because with the tiny sensors in cheap cameras (and in the iPhone / iPad) you get the best overall results with a 6 megapixels camera. Anything above that just introduces more noise because you don't get enough light per pixel.

Has anyone else noticed all the shaped app icons? As far as I know, I don't think that's a feature right now... Maybe I'm wrong. But there are a lot of circles, and there's even a gear. Also they're 3D. I don't think that would mean anything, but I saw an idea once that the iPhone could know what angle you're looking at it, and make the screen look 3D accordingly... But the battery life is already not great, so I'm sure they wouldn't want to kill it with some pointless (maybe not pointless, for games) feature...?
Yeap...

Oh boy, get up early Sunday morning to wait in line with scalpers...
I won't wait in line either... but I do hope this helps satisfy demand. Lack of availability is getting to be an old/tiresome story. I want to buy an iPad, but don't want to stand in line from 3 AM to do so.

Those are some really nice specs, I am sorry if this has been answered before but do we know what Core 2 Duo they are? Conroe or Merom :confused:
The 1.83, 2.0, 2.16, and 2.33GHz clock speeds show that it is Merom, not Conroe. Conroe would be 1.86, 2.13 (2MB L2 cache), 2.40, 2.66 (4MB L2 cache), and 2.93 GHz (Core 2 Extreme)
Since the 24" model is at least prosumer, it would have been nice to see that one get a Conroe (Extreme even).

Ouch.
I get 36 hours on my Droid X without any issues...
If youre getting 36 hours youre barely using it for anything more than texting/calls/web browsing etc.
Youre definitely not getting 36 hours without charging playing games/streaming music etc. on top of texting/calls/web browsing. the iPhone too gets 36 hours if you use it like you do.

I'm just going to throw this very quick (and shoddy) rendering I made into the mix, portraying a possible "tabletop" iMac.
http://i453.photobucket.com/albums/qq257/Ryuinfinity/imactouch.png
That looks great, and would be fine for touch-input (if it has wrist-wrests); but that's a horrible angle for a screen: you'd have to crouch over it to use it. Fine for very short usage, but would be incredibly uncomfortable for any kind of regular use.
There's a simple, fundamental problem with combining touch-input and a screen into one surface in desktop computer, and no amount of clever design can get around it:
The ideal touch device is near-horizontal. The ideal screen is near-vertical. Unless/until we evolve a convoluted spine or an extra arm joint, you cannot combine both into one surface, without having a horribly uncomfortable user experience.
The iDevices work because they can be held in one hand and adjusted. I wouldn't want to try that with an iMac!
The only way I can see anything like this happening, is if this new iMac is more of a dockable "iPad". Sit it into the dock and you use it as an iMac with full OSX functionality. Pull it out and take it with you, and it's a (slightly heavy!) iPad.
Now that I think about it, that might be pretty cool. No need to sync your Mac and your iPad, they're the same device!

It works for soundtracks or compilations, It is used to organize the albums better. Its very handy.
For soundtracks and compilations I use "compilation" tag and they show up under "compilation" instead of their artists in the browser. "Album Artist" tag is supposed to be for albums that have songs that are 'performed' by multiple artists, not for albums that have songs from different artists. Compilations and Soundtracks fall into the latter.
I have this album called "Friday Night in San Francisco". It's a live concert by Al DiMeola, John McLaughlin, and Paco DeLucia. I used to have all the names in the artist tag, and it would show up as a separate artist "Al DiMeola, John McLaughlin, Paco DeLucia", which was annoying. Now, having this new tag, I thought it would solve this problem, and the album would show up under all the artists. That's the intuitive way I think. When you browse for an artist you want to see songs from that artist right? And the songs in this album are both form Al DiMeola, John McLaughlin, and Paco DeLucia. So they should appear under them all.
When I put the three names in the "Album Artist" tag, nothing has changed in the way browser works. If this tag is just a static storage for an extra string I call this Lame. I had so much expectations from it I guess.

I bet it has to do something with the Greener Apple project.
"There is something in the air." is probably a reference to toxins and bad stuff released to the enviroment by Macs, currently.
So with that said, Steve will introduce the following enhanced products:
- New Cinema Displays, thinner, aluminium, LED backlight.
- New MacBooks (we know 13,3" LED displays were ordered by Apple some weeks ago), same design, new aluminium casing, LED backlight.
Apart from that, there are the changes that are likely going to happen:
- iTunes 7.6, including movie rentals
- iPhone 1.1.3 sofware (probably dubbed 1.2.0 or so)
- Updates on the 3G iPhone
None of the banners in the past really "teased" us with information about an upcoming product. They were just headlines offering some information about which route Apple was going.
Is there a list of MacWorld banners from the past? Love to see that.

Yes but I'm interested to know why you think the numbers are disproportionate. If you don't think it's race, finances, or lack of access to social services then what is it?
Who knows? Maybe there is a genetic component involved.

One of the Mac screen savers will do mosaics of photos from a folder... it's kind of cool to watch them zoom out into a mosaic, but can get hypnotic... ;)

I'm hoping the FaceTime bugs are addressed. On the iPhone 4 and iPad 2, I get the cached image or black screen instead of live camera. A restart fixes it in case you experience it.
I've had this happen since I believe the first set of 4.3 betas. And it's not just FT but anything that uses the camera (even my flashlight app would fail to turn on the light). As you stated, a reboot is the workaround.

Minor nitpick. I believe ia64 stands for the Itanium architecture not the 64-bit version of x86 architecture. EM64T is then name for the x86-64.
Correct.

Because some are successful does not mean all can be? That's crap. I'm not lumping them into one group, i'm saying their race has a disproportionate amount of poverty compared to others. And we're not even talking about the US, this thread is about Britain. Many blacks in Britain are immigrants, unlike in the US. So they have no history of anything there.
There are plenty of successful white people as well as plenty of white people just getting by. What is your point? What do you think the reason for these statistics is?

You would own one now if you had ordered when they had a 3-4 week lead time.
No you would not. As there have been no more in the country. Its all good, I'm more than happy to wait. As per in my post 3-4 weeks stayed like that for 2 weeks, then 2-3 weeks stayed like that for 2 weeks into the 3rd week now.
I'm sure Apple are doing their best and are likely under the pump due to a very large interest & Japan disasters.
When they do come in, I'm sure there will be oodles of them around.

Speak for yourself. Us with 3GSs will jump ship, Esp with all the awesome stuff google is doing. Apple needs to get on the game and release updates more often, not the opposite. That's a horrible idea! I mean... Unlike the other manufacturers, apple only makes ONE type of new phone a year. One.
Something tells me that one still using a 3GS isn't likely a must have "latest and greatest" kind of consumer. I had a 3GS which I bought on Day One. ATT let nearly everyone upgrade early to the 4 so I did. It was a no brainer. Why you stuck it out w/ the 3GS I can't say but to be bitching and moaning Apple doesn't upgrade fast enough like you are is silly. If you only upgrade every 3 years what difference would more frequent upgrades possibly make in your life? I think you protesteth too much.

I hate how you have to download the entire OS every time there's a small update like this. 666MB for a few bug fixes... Also, what's up with the 666MB? Maybe we should stay away from this update guys lol.
Same here! It's an "Apple" product with a "666"MB OS...anyone else thinking that's strangely close to a story with a snake in a garden? Haha. Kinda interesting.
